< Nahum 1 >

1 [the] oracle of Nineveh [the] document of [the] vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
מַשָּׂא נִֽינְוֵה סֵפֶר חֲזוֹן נַחוּם הָאֶלְקֹשִֽׁי׃
2 [is] a God Jealous and avenging Yahweh [is] avenging Yahweh and a lord of rage [is] avenging Yahweh to opponents his and [is] maintaining he to enemies his.
אֵל קַנּוֹא וְנֹקֵם יְהֹוָה נֹקֵם יְהֹוָה וּבַעַל חֵמָה נֹקֵם יְהֹוָה לְצָרָיו וְנוֹטֵר הוּא לְאֹיְבָֽיו׃
3 Yahweh [is] long of anger (and great of *Q(K)*) power and certainly not he will leave unpunished Yahweh [is] in storm-wind and in storm way his and [is] cloud [the] dust of feet his.
יְהֹוָה אֶרֶךְ אַפַּיִם (וגדול) [וּגְדׇל־]כֹּחַ וְנַקֵּה לֹא יְנַקֶּה יְהֹוָה בְּ ס וּפָה וּבִשְׂעָרָה דַּרְכּוֹ וְעָנָן אֲבַק רַגְלָֽיו׃
4 [he is] rebuking the Sea and he made dry it and all the rivers he dries up it withers Bashan and Carmel and [the] blossom of Lebanon it withers.
גּוֹעֵר בַּיָּם וַֽיַּבְּשֵׁהוּ וְכׇל־הַנְּהָרוֹת הֶחֱרִיב אֻמְלַל בָּשָׁן וְכַרְמֶל וּפֶרַח לְבָנוֹן אֻמְלָֽל׃
5 Mountains they quake from him and the hills they melt and it lifted up the earth from before him and [the] world and all [those who] dwell in it.
הָרִים רָעֲשׁוּ מִמֶּנּוּ וְהַגְּבָעוֹת הִתְמֹגָגוּ וַתִּשָּׂא הָאָרֶץ מִפָּנָיו וְתֵבֵל וְכׇל־יוֹשְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃
6 Before indignation his who? will he stand and who? will he endure at [the] burning of anger his rage his it is poured out like fire and the rocks they are pulled down from him.
לִפְנֵי זַעְמוֹ מִי יַעֲמוֹד וּמִי יָקוּם בַּחֲרוֹן אַפּוֹ חֲמָתוֹ נִתְּכָה כָאֵשׁ וְהַצֻּרִים נִתְּצוּ מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃
7 [is] good Yahweh a refuge in a day of trouble and [he is] knowing [those who] take refuge in him.
טוֹב יְהֹוָה לְמָעוֹז בְּיוֹם צָרָה וְיֹדֵעַ חֹסֵי בֽוֹ׃
8 And with a flood [which] passes over complete destruction he will make place its and enemies his he will pursue darkness.
וּבְשֶׁטֶף עֹבֵר כָּלָה יַעֲשֶׂה מְקוֹמָהּ וְאֹיְבָיו יְרַדֶּף־חֹֽשֶׁךְ׃
9 Whatever you will plot! against Yahweh complete destruction he [will be] making not it will arise two times trouble.
מַה־תְּחַשְּׁבוּן אֶל־יְהֹוָה כָּלָה הוּא עֹשֶׂה לֹא־תָקוּם פַּעֲמַיִם צָרָֽה׃
10 For to thorns interwoven and like drink their drunkards they will be consumed like stubble dry full.
כִּי עַד־סִירִים סְבֻכִים וּכְסׇבְאָם סְבוּאִים אֻכְּלוּ כְּקַשׁ יָבֵשׁ מָלֵֽא׃
11 From you he has come out [one who] plots on Yahweh evil a counselor of worthlessness.
מִמֵּךְ יָצָא חֹשֵׁב עַל־יְהֹוָה רָעָה יֹעֵץ בְּלִיָּֽעַל׃
12 Thus - he says Yahweh though complete and thus numerous and thus they will be cut down and he will pass away and I have afflicted you not I will afflict you again.
כֹּה ׀ אָמַר יְהֹוָה אִם־שְׁלֵמִים וְכֵן רַבִּים וְכֵן נָגוֹזּוּ וְעָבָר וְעִנִּתִךְ לֹא אֲעַנֵּךְ עֽוֹד׃
13 And now I will break yoke-bar his from on you and fetters your I will tear apart.
וְעַתָּה אֶשְׁבֹּר מֹטֵהוּ מֵעָלָיִךְ וּמוֹסְרֹתַיִךְ אֲנַתֵּֽק׃
14 And he has commanded on you Yahweh not it will be sown from name your again from [the] house of gods your I will cut off idol and molten image I will make grave your for you are insignificant.
וְצִוָּה עָלֶיךָ יְהֹוָה לֹא־יִזָּרַע מִשִּׁמְךָ עוֹד מִבֵּית אֱלֹהֶיךָ אַכְרִית פֶּסֶל וּמַסֵּכָה אָשִׂים קִבְרֶךָ כִּי קַלּֽוֹתָ׃
15 There! on the mountains [the] feet of [one who] bears news [one who] proclaims peace celebrate a festival O Judah festivals your pay vows your for not he will repeat again (to pass *Q(k)*) in you a worthless person all of him it will be cut off.
הִנֵּה עַל־הֶהָרִים רַגְלֵי מְבַשֵּׂר מַשְׁמִיעַ שָׁלוֹם חׇגִּי יְהוּדָה חַגַּיִךְ שַׁלְּמִי נְדָרָיִךְ כִּי לֹא יוֹסִיף עוֹד (לעבור) [לַעֲבׇר־]בָּךְ בְּלִיַּעַל כֻּלֹּה נִכְרָֽת׃
