Nahum 1
1 An oracle about Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
| وَحْيٌ عَلَى نِينَوَى. سِفْرُ رُؤْيَا نَاحُومَ ٱلْأَلْقُوشِيِّ. | ١ |
2 YHWH is a jealous God and avenges. YHWH avenges and is full of wrath. YHWH takes vengeance on his adversaries, and he maintains wrath against his enemies.
| اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهٌ غَيُورٌ وَمُنْتَقِمٌ. ٱلرّبُّ مُنْتَقِمٌ وَذُو سَخَطٍ. ٱلرّبُّ مُنْتَقِمٌ مِن مُبْغِضِيهِ وَحَافِظٌ غَضَبَهُ عَلَى أَعْدَائِهِ. | ٢ |
3 YHWH is slow to anger, and great in power, and will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. YHWH has his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
| ٱلرَّبُّ بَطِيءُ ٱلْغَضَبِ وَعَظِيمُ ٱلْقُدْرَةِ، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَا يُبَرِّئُ ٱلْبَتَّةَ. ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلزَّوْبَعَةِ، وَفِي ٱلْعَاصِفِ طَرِيقُهُ، وَٱلسَّحَابُ غُبَارُ رِجْلَيْهِ. | ٣ |
4 He rebukes the sea, and makes it dry, and dries up all the rivers. Bashan languishes, and Carmel; and the flower of Lebanon languishes.
| يَنْتَهِرُ ٱلْبَحْرَ فَيُنَشِّفُهُ وَيُجَفِّفُ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَنْهَارِ. يَذْبُلُ بَاشَانُ وَٱلْكَرْمَلُ، وَزَهْرُ لُبْنَانَ يَذْبُلُ. | ٤ |
5 The mountains quake before him, and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, yes, the world, and all who dwell in it.
| اَلْجِبَالُ تَرْجُفُ مِنْهُ، وَٱلتِّلَالُ تَذُوبُ، وَٱلْأَرْضُ تُرْفَعُ مِنْ وَجْهِهِ، وَٱلْعَالَمُ وَكُلُّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهِ. | ٥ |
6 Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the fierceness of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken apart by him.
| مَنْ يَقِفُ أَمَامَ سَخَطِهِ؟ وَمَنْ يَقُومُ فِي حُمُوِّ غَضَبِهِ؟ غَيْظُهُ يَنْسَكِبُ كَٱلنَّارِ، وَٱلصُّخُورُ تَنْهَدِمُ مِنْهُ. | ٦ |
7 YHWH is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him.
| صَالِحٌ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. حِصْنٌ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضَّيقِ، وَهُوَ يَعْرِفُ ٱلْمُتَوَكِّلِينَ عَلَيْهِ. | ٧ |
8 But with an overflowing flood, he will make a full end of her place, and will pursue his enemies into darkness.
| وَلَكِنْ بِطُوفَانٍ عَابِرٍ يَصْنَعُ هَلَاكًا تَامًّا لِمَوْضِعِهَا، وَأَعْدَاؤُهُ يَتْبَعُهُمْ ظَلَامٌ. | ٨ |
9 What do you plot against YHWH? He will make a full end. Affliction won't rise up the second time.
| مَاذَا تَفْتَكِرُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ؟ هُوَ صَانِعٌ هَلَاكًا تَامًّا. لَا يَقُومُ ٱلضِّيقُ مَرَّتَيْنِ. | ٩ |
10 For entangled like thorns, and drunk as with their drink, they are consumed utterly like dry stubble.
| فَإِنَّهُمْ وَهُمْ مُشْتَبِكُونَ مِثْلَ ٱلشَّوْكِ، وَسَكْرَانُونَ كَمِنْ خَمْرِهِمْ، يُؤْكَلُونَ كَٱلْقَشِّ ٱلْيَابِسِ بِٱلْكَمَالِ. | ١٠ |
11 There is one gone forth out of you, who devises evil against YHWH, who counsels wickedness.
| مِنْكِ خَرَجَ ٱلْمُفْتَكِرُ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ شَرًّا، ٱلْمُشِيرُ بِٱلْهَلَاكِ. | ١١ |
12 Thus says YHWH: "Though they be in full strength, and likewise many, even so they will be cut down, and he shall pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more.
| هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «إِنْ كَانُوا سَالِمِينَ وَكَثِيرِينَ هَكَذَا، فَهَكَذَا يُجَزُّونَ فَيَعْبُرُ. أَذْلَلْتُكِ. لَا أُذِلُّكِ ثَانِيَةً. | ١٢ |
13 Now will I break his yoke from off you, and will burst your bonds apart."
| وَٱلْآنَ أَكْسِرُ نِيرَهُ عَنْكِ وَأَقْطَعُ رُبُطَكِ». | ١٣ |
14 YHWH has commanded concerning you: "No more descendants will bear your name. Out of the house of your gods, will I cut off the engraved image and the molten image. I will make your grave, for you are vile."
| وَلَكِنْ قَدْ أَوْصَى عَنْكَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «لَا يُزْرَعُ مِنِ ٱسْمِكَ فِي مَا بَعْدُ. إِنِّي أَقْطَعُ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِلَهِكَ ٱلتَّمَاثِيلَ ٱلْمَنْحُوتَةَ وَٱلْمَسْبُوكَةَ. أَجْعَلُهُ قَبْرَكَ، لِأَنَّكَ صِرْتَ حَقِيرًا». | ١٤ |
15 Look, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace. Keep your feasts, Judah. Perform your vows, for the wicked one will no more pass through you. He is utterly cut off.
| هُوَذَا عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ قَدَمَا مُبَشِّرٍ مُنَادٍ بِٱلسَّلَامِ! عَيِّدِي يَا يَهُوذَا أَعْيَادَكِ. أَوْفِي نُذُورَكِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَعُودُ يَعْبُرُ فِيكِ أَيْضًا ٱلْمُهْلِكُ. قَدِ ٱنْقَرَضَ كُلُّهُ. | ١٥ |
