Nahum 1
1 Burden of Nineveh. The Book of the Vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
论尼尼微的默示，就是伊勒歌斯人那鸿所得的默示。
2 A God zealous and avenging [is] Jehovah, An avenger [is] Jehovah, and possessing fury. An avenger [is] Jehovah on His adversaries, And He is watching for His enemies.
耶和华是忌邪施报的 神。 耶和华施报大有忿怒； 向他的敌人施报， 向他的仇敌怀怒。
3 Jehovah [is] slow to anger, and great in power, And Jehovah doth not entirely acquit, In a hurricane and in a tempest [is] His way, And a cloud [is] the dust of His feet.
耶和华不轻易发怒，大有能力， 万不以有罪的为无罪。 他乘旋风和暴风而来， 云彩为他脚下的尘土。
4 He is pushing against a sea, and drieth it up, Yea, all the floods He hath made dry, Languishing [are] Bashan and Carmel, Yea, the flower of Lebanon [is] languishing.
他斥责海，使海干了， 使一切江河干涸。 巴珊和迦密的树林衰残； 黎巴嫩的花草也衰残了。
5 Mountains have shaken because of Him, And the hills have been melted; And lifted up [is] the earth at His presence, And the world and all dwelling in it.
大山因他震动； 小山也都消化。 大地在他面前突起； 世界和住在其间的也都如此。
6 Before His indignation who doth stand? And who riseth up in the heat of His anger? His fury hath been poured out like fire, And the rocks have been broken by Him.
他发忿恨，谁能立得住呢？ 他发烈怒，谁能当得起呢？ 他的忿怒如火倾倒； 磐石因他崩裂。
7 Good [is] Jehovah for a strong place in a day of distress. And He knoweth those trusting in Him.
耶和华本为善， 在患难的日子为人的保障， 并且认得那些投靠他的人。
8 And with a flood passing over, An end He maketh of its place, And His enemies doth darkness pursue.
但他必以涨溢的洪水淹没尼尼微， 又驱逐仇敌进入黑暗。
9 What do we devise against Jehovah? An end He is making, arise not twice doth distress.
尼尼微人哪，设何谋攻击耶和华呢？ 他必将你们灭绝净尽； 灾难不再兴起。
10 For while princes [are] perplexed, And with their drink are drunken, They have been consumed as stubble fully dried.
你们像丛杂的荆棘， 像喝醉了的人， 又如枯干的碎秸全然烧灭。
11 From thee hath come forth a deviser of evil Against Jehovah — a worthless counsellor.
有一人从你那里出来， 图谋邪恶，设恶计攻击耶和华。
12 Thus said Jehovah: Though complete, and thus many, Yet thus they have been cut off, And he hath passed away. And I afflicted thee, I afflict thee no more.
耶和华如此说： 尼尼微虽然势力充足，人数繁多， 也被剪除，归于无有。 犹大啊，我虽然使你受苦， 却不再使你受苦。
13 And now I break his rod from off thee, And thy bands I do draw away.
现在我必从你颈项上折断他的轭， 扭开他的绳索。
14 And commanded concerning thee hath Jehovah, 'No more of thy name doth spread abroad, From the house of thy gods I cut off graven and molten image, I appoint thy grave, for thou hast been vile.
耶和华已经出令，指着尼尼微说： 你名下的人必不留后； 我必从你神的庙中除灭雕刻的偶像和铸造的偶像； 我必因你鄙陋，使你归于坟墓。
15 Lo, on the mountains the feet of one proclaiming tidings, sounding peace! Celebrate, O Judah, thy festivals, complete thy vows, For add no more to pass over into thee doth the worthless, He hath been completely cut off!
看哪，有报好信传平安之人的脚登山，说： 犹大啊，可以守你的节期， 还你所许的愿吧！ 因为那恶人不再从你中间经过， 他已灭绝净尽了。
