< Nahum 3 >

1 Terrible things will happen to [Nineveh], that city [that is full of people who] murder [MTY] and lie. [The city is] full of things that were seized [from other countries by their soldiers]; [their armies] continually [LIT] have acted brutally towards people whom they conquered.
Qanliq sheherge way! U yalghanchiliq, zulum-zorawanliq bilen tolghan, U olja élishtin héch qol üzgen emes!
2 But [now listen to the enemy soldiers coming to attack Nineveh]; [listen to them] cracking their whips, and [listen to the] rattle of [their chariot] wheels! [Listen to] their galloping horses and their chariots as they bounce along!
Ah, qamchining qarsildashliri! Chaqlirining daqangshiwatqan, Atlarning chapchiwatqan, Pingildap kétiwatqan jeng harwilirining sadaliri!
3 [Look at their] flashing swords and glittering spears as the horsemen race forward! Many [people of Nineveh will be] killed; [there will be] piles of corpses, [with the result that] people will stumble over them.
Qara, atliq leshkerlerning qangqishliri, Qilichlarning walildashliri, Neyzilerning palildashliri, Öltürülgenlerning köplüki, Ölükler döwe-döwe! Jesetlerning sani yoqtur; Ular jesetlerge putlishidu.
4 All [that will happen] because [Nineveh is like] [MET] a beautiful prostitute [who lures men to where they will be ruined]; [Nineveh is a beautiful city] which has attracted/enticed [people of] other nations [to come there]. [The people of Nineveh] taught those people [of other nations rituals of] magic, and caused them to become their slaves.
— Séhirlerning piri u, — Ellerni pahishiwazliqi, Jemetlerni séhirliri bilen sétiwétidu; Sen shérinsuxen pahishining nurghun pahishilikliri tüpeylidin,
5 [So] the Commander of the armies of angels says to [the people of Nineveh]: “I am your enemy, and I will [cause the people in other] nations to see you [completely] humiliated like [MET] [women who have committed adultery are humiliated by] having their skirts lifted high, [with the result that] people can see their naked [bodies].
Mana, Men sanga qarshiliship chiqqanmen, — — deydu samawiy qoshunlarning Serdari bolghan Perwerdigar, Könglikingning étikini qayrip yüzüngge yépip, séni ashkarilaymen, Ellerge uyat yerliringni, Padishahliqlargha nomusungni körsitimen.
6 I will cause rubbish/garbage to be thrown at you; I will show [others] that I despise you very much, and I will cause you to be publicly ridiculed.
Üstüngge nijasetni tashlaymen, Séni shermendichilikte qaldurimen, Séni reswa qilimen.
7 All those who see you will turn their backs to you and say, ‘Nineveh is ruined, but absolutely no one [RHQ] will mourn for it.’ No one will regret Nineveh being destroyed!”
We shundaq boliduki, Séni körgenlerning hemmisi sendin qéchip: — «Ninewe weyran qilindi! Uning üchün kim haza tutidu?» — deydu; Men sanga teselli bergüchilerni nedin tépip bérimen?
8 Your city is certainly [RHQ] no safer than Thebes [city] was. [Thebes was an important city] beside the Nile [River]; the river was [like] [SIM] a wall that protected the city [DOU].
Sen deryalarning otturisida turghan, Etrapida sular bolghan, Istihkami déngiz bolghan, Sépili déngiz bolghan No-Amon shehiridin ewzelmusen?
9 [The rulers of] Ethiopia and Egypt helped Thebes; there was no limit to their power. [The governments of the nearby countries of] Put and Libya were also allies of Thebes.
Éfiopiyemu, Misirmu uning küch-qudriti idi, Ularning küchi cheksiz idi; Put hem Liwiyelikler uninggha yardemchi idi;
10 But Thebes was captured, and [its people were] (exiled/forced to go to other countries). Their babies were dashed to pieces in the streets [of the city]. [Enemy soldiers] (cast lots/threw small marked stones) to decide who would get each official in Thebes [to become his slave]. All the leaders of Thebes were fastened/tied by chains.
Umu élip kétilip, esirlikke chüshken; Barliq kocha béshida bowaqliri chörüp tashliwétildi; Ular uning mötiwerliri üchün chek tashlidi, Uning barliq erbabliri zenjirde baghlan’ghanidi.
11 You [people of Nineveh] will similarly become dazed and drunk, and you will search for places to hide [to escape] from your enemies.
Senmu mest bolisen; Sen mökünüwalisen; Sen düshmendin himaye izdep yürisen;
12 [Your enemies will cause] the walls around your city to fall down like [SIM] the first figs that fall from fig trees [each year]. [Your city will be captured easily, like] [MET] [figs that fall] into the mouths [HYP] of those who shake the fig trees.
Séning barliq istihkamliring xuddi tunji méwige kirgen enjür derixining enjürlirige oxshaydu; Birla silkise, ular yégüchining aghzigha chüshidu.
13 Look at your soldiers! They will be [as weak/helpless as] [MET] women! The gates of your city will be opened wide [to allow] your enemies [to enter them], [and then] the bars of those gates will be burned.
Mana, xelqing shehiringde qiz-ayallardek bolup qaldi; Zéminingning qowuqliri düshmenliringge keng ichilidu; Ot tömür taqaqliringni yep kétidu.
14 Store up water [now to use when] your enemies surround the city! Repair the forts! Dig up clay and trample it [to make it soft], and put it into molds to make bricks [to repair the walls]!
Emdi muhasirige teyyarliq qilip su tartip qoy! Qorghanliringni mustehkemle! Séghiz topidin lay étip, Hak layni cheylep qoy! Xumdanni raslap qoy!
15 [Nevertheless, your enemies] will burn your [city]; they will kill you with their swords; they will kill you like [SIM] locusts [destroy crops].
Ot séni shu yerde yep kétidu; Qilich séni üzüp tashlaydu; U séni chéketke lichinkisidek yewatidu; Emdi özüngni chéketke lichinkiliridek köp qil, Chéketkidek özüngni zor köp qil!
16 In your [city] there are now very many merchants; [it seems that] there are more of them than there are stars. But [when your city is being destroyed, those merchants will take the valuable things and disappear] [like] [SIM] locusts that strip the leaves from plants and [then] fly away.
Sen sodigerliringni asmandiki yultuzlardin köp qilding; Mana, chéketke lichinkisi qanat chiqirip, uchup kétidu!
17 Your leaders are [also] like a swarm of [SIM] locusts [DOU] that crowd together on the stone fences/walls on a cold day, and [then] fly away when the sun comes up, and no one knows where they have gone.
Séning erbabliring chéketkilerdek, Serdarliring mijir-mijir chaqchiqizlardek bolidu; Mana ular soghuq künide chitlar ichige kiriwélip makan qilidu; Quyash chiqqanda, ular qéchip kétidu, Barghan yérini tapqili bolmaydu.
18 O King of Assyria, your officials will [all] be dead [EUP]; your important people will lie down and rest [forever]. Your people will be scattered over the mountains, and there will no one to gather them [together].
Chopanliring mügdep qaldi, i Asuriyening padishahi; Séning aqsöngekliring jim yatidu; Xelqing taghlar üstige tarqilip ketti, Héchkim ularni yighmaydu;
19 You [are like someone who] has a wound that cannot be healed; [it will be] a wound that causes him to die. And all those who hear about what has happened to you will clap their hands [joyfully]. [They will say, ] “Everyone has [RHQ] suffered because he continually was [very] cruel to us.”
Séning yarang dawasiz, Séning zexming éghirdur; Xewiringni anglighanlarning hemmisi üstüngdin chawak chalidu; Chünki toxtawsiz rezilliking kimning béshigha kelmigendu?
