Nahum 3
1 Woe to the city of blood! it is all full of lies and robbery; never ceaseth the preying;
We nu sin siti kikiap ac akmas se Su sessesla ke mwe kasrup ma ac fah pusrla ac utukelik.
2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of wheels, and of prancing horses, and of the skipping chariots.
Porongo kusen sringsring lun mwe sringsring, Erarak lun wheel in mwe kasrusr uh, Pusren kasrusr lun horse uh, Ac srosro lun chariot uh!
3 Horsemen mount, and there are the flaming sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and heaps of carcasses; and without end are the corpses; they stumble on their corpses;
Mwet kasrusr fin horse yuyak in mweun, Cutlass uh sarmelik, ac osra uh saromrom! Mwet misa uh tia ku in oekyukla — Manolos yolyak oan, Ac mwet uh ikorkor faclos.
4 Because of the multitude of the lewd deeds of the harlot, that is rich in gracefulness, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her lewd deeds, and families through her witchcrafts.
Nineveh, su oana sie mutan kosro, el kalyeiyuk. El oasku ac sessesla ke mwe inutnut. El kiapwela mutunfacl puspis nu ke moul in kohs.
5 Behold, I will be against thee, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will lay thy skirts open over thy face, and I will let nations see thy nakedness, and kingdoms thy shame.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Nineveh, nga ac kalyei kom! Nga ac fah sarukkomla, Ac lela mutunfacl uh in liye koflufol lom — Aok liye kom ke kom ac mwekinla uh.
6 And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and defile thee, and will render thee a dirt-heap.
Nga ac fah arulana aklusrongtenye kom, Ac afinkomla ke ma na fohkfok ma mwet uh wohtwot kac. Mwet ac fah intoein kom ac sangeng ke liyeyom.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that see thee shall flee from thee, and say, Laid waste is Nineveh: who will condole with her? whence shall I seek comforters for thee?
Elos nukewa su liye kom ac kohloli liki kom. Elos fah fahk, ‘Nineveh el musalla na pwaye! Su srakna pakomutal? Su ac lungse akwoyal?’”
8 Art thou better than No-amon, that was situated on the rivers, that had water round about her, the rampart of which was the sea, and the walls of which rose out of the sea?
Nineveh, ya kom pangon kom wo liki Thebes, siti fulat lun Egypt? Oasr pac infacl soko we in karinganul oana sie kalkal — Infacl Nile ma loangeyal.
9 Ethiopia the numerous, and Egypt that was without end, Put and Lubim were thy helpers.
El leumi facl Ethiopia ac Egypt, ac wangin saflaiyen kuiyal. Libya el asruoki pac nu sel.
10 Yet also she was exiled, was carried away into captivity; also her young children were dashed in pieces at the corners of all streets: and for her honorable men they cast lots, and all her great ones were bound with chains.
Ne ouinge, a mwet Thebes elos utukla nu in sruoh. Tulik srisrik natulos sringsring pac nwe ke misa ke sruwasrik in inkanek nukewa. Mwet kol lalos kapiri ke sein, utukla elos, ac kitakatelik elos nu sin mwet ma sruokolosi.
11 Thou also shalt be made drunken, thou shalt be hidden from view: thou also shalt seek refuge because of the enemy.
Nineveh, kom pac, kom fah sruhilana ac nikinkomla. Kom ac fah suk pac in kaingla liki mwet lokoalok lom.
12 All thy strong-holds shall be like fig-trees with the first ripe figs, which, if they be shaken, will fall into the mouth of the eater.
Pot ku lom nukewa ac fah oana sak fig su mwesrla fahko: osrokak sropon sak an, na fokinsak olo fah putat nu inwalum!
13 Behold, thy people are become women in the midst of thee: unto thy enemies are the gates of thy land set wide open; the fire hath devoured thy bars.
Mwet mweun lom elos munas oana mutan uh, ac mutunpot in facl sum ikakelik nu sin mwet lokoalok lom. Firir in e ac fah esukak polosak lulap sruokyen mutunpot lom.
14 Water for the siege draw for thyself, fortify thy strongholds: go into the clay, and tread the mortar, make strong the brick-kiln.
Ut kof me, ac akkeyala pot ku lom meet liki ac kuhlusyuki kom! Futungya fohk kle in orek brick, ac akoela form nu kac!
15 There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off, it shall devour thee up like the cankerworm: [though] thou make thyself many as the cankerworm; make thyself many as the locusts.
Kom finne akoo ma inge nukewa, kom ac nuna misa na ke e, ku anwuki ke mweun. Ac fah pokyukla kom oana fokinsak ma mongola nufon sin won srisrik locust. Mwet lom elos puseni oana locust uh!
16 [Though] thou hadst multiplied thy merchants more than the stars of heaven: the cankerworm spreadeth itself out, and flieth away.
Kom akpusye mwet kuka lom nwe pus liki na itu inkusrao! Tusruktu inge elos nukewa wanginla, oana won locust su sralelik pao ac sohkla.
17 Thy crowned ones are like the locusts, and thy leaders like the swarms of locusts, which camp in the hedges on a cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
Mwet leum lom uh oana sie u in won locust su kaukya pesinka uh ke len mihsrisr uh. Na ke faht uh sikyak, elos sohkelik ac wangin mwet etu yen elos som nu we!
18 Thy shepherds slumber, O king of Assyria; thy valiant men are at rest: scattered are thy people upon the mountains, and there is none that gathereth them.
Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria, governor lom elos misa, ac mwet wal fulat lom motullana nwe tok! Mwet lom elos fahsrelik fineol uh, ac wangin mwet in sifilpa usalosme nu yen selos.
19 There is no healing for thy breach; fatal is thy wound: all that hear the report of thee will clap their hands over thee; for over whom did not thy wickedness pass continually?
Wangin unweyen kinet keim uh, pwanang ac tia ku in mahla. Elos nukewa su lohng pweng ke musalla lom, elos fah paspas ke engan. Ya oasr mwet su tuh kaingkunla mwe keok upa ma kom oru?
