Nahum 1
1 [the] oracle of Nineveh [the] document of [the] vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
Pwofesi pou Ninive. Liv vizyon a Nahum nan, Elkochit la.
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.
Yon Dye jalou k ap fè vanjans se SENYÈ a. SENYÈ a plen chalè kòlè ak vanjans. SENYÈ a ap pran vanjans Li sou sa yo ki kont Li yo. Sou lènmi Li yo, li konsève chalè kòlè Li.
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.
SENYÈ a lan nan kòlè, e Li plen pwisans. Konsa, li byen si ke SENYÈ a p ap kite koupab la san pinisyon. Mwayen Li se nan toubiyon ak tanpèt, e nwaj yo se pousyè anba pye Li.
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.
Li Repwoche lanmè a, e fè l vin sèch. Li fè larivyè yo vin sèch. Basan ak Carmel seche; flè a Liban yo vin fennen.
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.
Mòn yo tranble akoz Li, e kolin yo vin fann nèt. Anverite latè a boulvèse pa prezans Li, lemonn ak tout sa ki rete ladann.
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.
Se kilès ki ka kanpe devan gwo kòlè Li? Kilès ki ka sipòte chalè kòlè Li? Se tankou dife kòlè Li vide; Li menm ki fè wòch yo kraze an mòso.
7 [is] good Yahweh a refuge in a day of trouble and [he is] knowing [those who] take refuge in him.
SENYÈ a bon; se yon sitadèl nan jou malè. Epi Li konnen sila ki pran refij nan li yo.
8 And with a flood [which] passes over complete destruction he will make place its and enemies his he will pursue darkness.
Men tankou yon inondasyon ki debòde nèt, li va fè vil Ninive disparèt nèt, e kouri dèyè lènmi Li yo jis rive nan fènwa.
9 Whatever you will plot! against Yahweh complete destruction he [will be] making not it will arise two times trouble.
Nenpòt panse nou konn fè kont SENYÈ a, li va mete fen a sa nèt. Gwo twoub sa a p ap parèt de fwa.
10 For to thorns interwoven and like drink their drunkards they will be consumed like stubble dry full.
Kon bwa pikan mele mare, kon sila ki sou ak bwason yo, yo va vin konsonmen nèt kon pay ki fennen nèt.
11 From you he has come out [one who] plots on Yahweh evil a counselor of worthlessness.
Nan ou, te sòti yon moun ki te fè move konplo kont SENYÈ a, yon konseye mechan.
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.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Byenke yo plen fòs, e yo gen anpil moun; malgre sa, yo va vin koupe retire e disparèt. Byenke Mwen te aflije ou, Mwen p ap aflije ou ankò.
13 And now I will break yoke-bar his from on you and fetters your I will tear apart.
Pou sa, koulye a, Mwen va kraze retire jouk li ki mare sou ou a, e mwen va eklate chèn ou yo.”
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.
SENYÈ a fin pase lòd konsènan ou menm: “P ap gen desandan ki pou pote non ou ankò. Mwen va koupe retire zidòl ak imaj soti lakay dye ou yo. M ap prepare yon kote antèman pou ou; paske ou vin abominab.”
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.
Gade byen, sou mòn yo, pye a li ki pote bòn nouvèl, ki anonse lapè yo! Fè fèt nou, O Juda! Akonpli ve nou yo. Paske sa p ap janm rive ankò pou mechan sila an vin pase nan mitan nou. Li fin koupe retire nèt.
