Nahum 2
1 The ravager cometh up against thee, [[O Nineveh!]] Guard the fortress; watch the way; Gird up the loins; confirm the strength.
Umayen ti tao a mangrebbek kenka. Bantayam dagiti pader ti siudad, guardiaam dagiti dalan, papigsaem ta bagim, ummongem dagiti armadam.
2 For Jehovah restoreth the glory of Jacob, As the glory of Israel; For the wasters have wasted them, And destroyed their branches.
Ta isubsubli ni Yahweh ti kinatan-ok ni Jacob, kas iti kinatan-ok ti Israel, uray dinadael ida dagiti mangsamsamsam ken dinadaelda dagiti sanga ti ubasda.
3 The shields of his mighty men are red; His warriors are clothed in crimson; His chariots glitter with the fire of steel in the day of his preparation, And the spears are brandished.
Nalabbaga dagiti kalasag dagiti maingel a tattaona, ken nakakawes iti nalabbaga dagiti natutured a lallaki; agraniag dagiti landok ti karwahe iti aldaw a panagsaganada, ken naiwaradiwad iti tangatang dagiti sipres a gayang.
4 The chariots rave in the streets; They run to and fro in the broad ways; Their appearance is like torches; They run like lightnings.
Napegges ti panagtaray dagiti karwahe kadagiti kalsada; agdardarasda nga agsubli-subli kadagiti nalawa a kalkalsada. Kasdala dagiti pagsilawan ken agtatarayda a kasla kimat.
5 He calleth for his mighty men; They stumble on their way; They hasten to the wall; But the mantelet is prepared,
Ay-ayaban ti tao a mangrebbek kenka dagiti opisyalna; maitublakda iti tunggal maysa iti pannagnada; agdardarasda a mangraut iti pader ti siudad. Naisaganan ti dakkel a kalasag a mangsalaknib kadagitoy a mangraraut.
6 The gates of rivers are opened, And the palace melteth away.
Napilit a nailukat dagiti ruangan kadagiti karayan, ket nadadael ti palasio.
7 Huzzab is uncovered; she is carried away captive, Her maidservants sigh with the voice of doves, And smite their breasts.
Naussoban ti pagan-anay ti reyna ken naitalaw; agas-asug dagiti adipenna a babbai a kasla dagiti kalapati, dandanugenda dagiti barukongda.
8 Nineveh was like a pool full of water of old; Yet shall they flee away; Stand! stand! shall they cry; But none shall look back.
Ti Ninive ket kasla naisawang a danum, a kasla napegges a danum nga agliblibas dagiti tattaona. Ipukpukkaw dagiti dadduma, “Agsardengkayo, agsardengkayo,” ngem awan ti tumalyaw.
9 Seize the silver; seize the gold; There is no end to the treasures; There is abundance of all precious furniture.
Alaenyo ti nasamsam a pirak, alaenyo ti nasamsam a balitok, gapu ta awan patingga daytoy, ti dayag dagiti amin a napipintas a banbanag ti Nineve.
10 She hath become void, and empty, and desolate; The heart melteth, and the knees smite together; Pangs are in all their loins, And the faces of all gather blackness.
Langalang ken nadadael ti Nineve. Marunaw ti puso iti tunggal maysa, agtitim-og dagiti tumtumeng ti tunggal maysa, ken adda ladingit iti tunggal maysa; pimmusyaw amin dagiti rupada.
11 Where now is the dwelling of the lions, And the feeding-place of the young lions, Where the lion and the lioness walked, And the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?
Sadino ngay itan ti rukib ti leon, ti lugar a pangpanganan dagiti urbon a leon, ti lugar a pagpagnaan ti leon ken ti kabaian a leon, agraman dagiti urbon a leon, no sadino ket awan ti pagbutbutnganda?
12 The lion tore in pieces for his whelps, And strangled for his lionesses, And filled his dens with prey, And his lairs with ravin.
Rinangrangkay ti leon ti natiliwna para kadagiti annakna; Binekkelna dagiti natiliwna a maipaay iti kabaian a leon, ken pinunnona ti rukibna kadagiti natiliwna, ken ti rukibna kadagiti narangrangkay a natay a bagi ti ayup.
13 Behold! I am against thee, saith Jehovah of hosts, And I will burn thy chariots into smoke, And the sword shall devour thy young lions. And I will cut off thy prey from the earth, And the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
“Kitaem, bimmusorak kenka”—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin. “Uramekto dagiti karwahem iti asuk, ken alun-onento ti kampilan dagiti urbon a leonmo. Pukawekto ti sinamsammo manipud iti dagam, ken saanton a mangngegan pay dagiti timek dagiti mensaherom.”
