Nahum 3
1 Woe [to] the city of blood, She is all full with lies [and] burglary, Prey does not depart.
We nu sin siti kikiap ac akmas se Su sessesla ke mwe kasrup ma ac fah pusrla ac utukelik.
2 The sound of a whip, And the sound of the rattling of a wheel, And of a prancing horse, and of a bounding chariot, Of a horseman mounting.
Porongo kusen sringsring lun mwe sringsring, Erarak lun wheel in mwe kasrusr uh, Pusren kasrusr lun horse uh, Ac srosro lun chariot uh!
3 And the flame of a sword, and the lightning of a spear, And the abundance of the wounded, And the weight of carcasses, Indeed, there is no end to the bodies, They stumble over their bodies.
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 abundance of the fornications of a harlot, The goodness of the grace of the lady of witchcrafts, Who is selling nations by her fornications, And families by 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 [am] against you,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “And have removed your skirts before your face, And have showed nations your nakedness, And kingdoms your 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 have cast on you abominations, And dishonored you, and made you as a sight.
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 has come to pass, Each of your beholders flees from you, And has said: Nineveh is spoiled, Who bemoans for her? From where do I seek comforters for you?”
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 Are you better than No-Ammon, That is dwelling among brooks? Waters she has around her, Whose bulwark [is] the sea, waters her wall.
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 Cush her might, and Egypt, and there is no end. Put and Lubim have been for your help.
El leumi facl Ethiopia ac Egypt, ac wangin saflaiyen kuiyal. Libya el asruoki pac nu sel.
10 Even she becomes an exile, She has gone into captivity, Even her sucklings are dashed to pieces At the top of all out-places, And for her honored ones they cast a lot, And all her great ones have been bound in 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 Even you are drunken, you are hidden, Even you seek a strong place, because of an enemy.
Nineveh, kom pac, kom fah sruhilana ac nikinkomla. Kom ac fah suk pac in kaingla liki mwet lokoalok lom.
12 All your fortresses [are] fig trees with first-fruits, If they are shaken, They have fallen 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, your people [are] women in your midst, To your enemies thoroughly opened Have been the gates of your land, Fire has consumed your 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 Waters of a siege draw for yourself, Strengthen your fortresses, Enter into mire, and tread on clay, Make strong a 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 a fire consumes you, A sword cuts you off, It consumes you as a cankerworm! Make yourself heavy as the cankerworm, Make yourself heavy as the locust.
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 Multiply your merchants above the stars of the heavens, The cankerworm has stripped off, and flees 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 Your crowned ones [are] as a locust, And your princes as great grasshoppers, That encamp in hedges in a day of cold, The sun has risen, and it flees away, And its place where they are is not known.
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 Your friends have slumbered, king of Asshur, Your majestic ones rest, Your people have been scattered on the mountains, And there is none gathering.
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 weakening of your destruction, Your striking [is] grievous, All hearing your fame have clapped the hand at you, For over whom did your wickedness not 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?
