Nawoun 3
1 Malè a vil sanglan an! Li plen nèt ak manti ak piyaj. Viktim li yo san fen.
woe! city blood all her lie plunder full not to remove prey
2 Bri a fwèt la, bri a wou k ap sone sou wòch yo, cheval k ap galope yo ak cha k ap vòltije yo!
voice: sound whip and voice quaking wheel and horse to rush and chariot to skip about
3 Chevalye k ap kouri desann yo; nepe k ap klere yo, lans k ap briye tankou solèy yo. Anpil mò, yon gwo ma kadav, ak kò mouri san kontwòl— yo manke tonbe sou kadav mò yo!
horseman to ascend: rise and flame sword and lightning spear and abundance slain: killed and heaviness corpse and nothing end to/for body (and to stumble *Q(K)*) in/on/with body their
4 Tout sa akoz anpil aktivite a pwostitiye yo, sila ki vrèman byen pòtan yo, mètrès a gwo maji yo, ki vann nasyon yo nan pwostitisyon li yo, ak fanmi yo nan gwo wanga li konn fè yo.
from abundance fornication to fornicate pleasant favor mistress sorcery [the] to sell nation in/on/with fornication her and family in/on/with sorcery her
5 “Gade byen, Mwen vin kont ou”, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo. Mwen va Leve jip ou jis rive nan figi ou pou montre a nasyon yo toutouni ou, pou wayòm yo wè wont ou.
look! I to(wards) you utterance LORD Hosts and to reveal: uncover hem your upon face your and to see: see nation nakedness your and kingdom dishonor your
6 Mwen va jete bagay ki sal nèt sou ou, fè ou vin avili e fè ou vin espektak.
and to throw upon you abomination and be senseless you and to set: make you like/as sight
7 Konsa, li va vin rive ke tout moun ki wè ou, yo va fè bak, e yo va di: “Men Ninive fin devaste nèt! Se kilès k ap fè dèy pou li? Se kibò pou m ta jwenn moun ki pou rekonfòte ou?”
and to be all to see: see you to wander from you and to say to ruin Nineveh who? to wander to/for her from where? to seek to be sorry: comfort to/for you
8 Èske ou pi bon pase Nò Amon ki te pozisyone pami rivyè yo, ki te antoure ak dlo, ki te gen lanmè kon pwotèj li, e se lanmè ki te sèvi kon miray li?
be good from Thebes Amon [the] to dwell in/on/with Nile water around to/for her which rampart sea from sea wall her
9 Se Éthiopie ki te pwisans li, ansanm ak Égypte ki te san limit. Puth ak Libie te pami soutyen ou yo.
Cush strength her and Egypt and nothing end Put and Libyan to be in/on/with help your
10 Men li te pote ale; li te antre an kaptivite. Tout ti pitit li yo te vin kraze an mòso nan tèt tout ri yo. Yo te fè tiraj osò pou onorab li yo, e mesye pwisan li yo te mare nan chèn.
also he/she/it to/for captivity to go: went in/on/with captivity also infant her to dash in pieces in/on/with head: top all outside and upon to honor: honour her to cast a lot allotted and all great: large her to bind in/on/with fetter
11 Ou menm tou va vin sou nèt. Ou va kache. Ou menm tou va chache yon kote pou ou kache akoz de ènmi an.
also you(f. s.) be drunk to be to conceal also you(f. s.) to seek security from enemy
12 Tout gwo fò nou yo va tankou pye fig etranje ak fwi ki mi— lè yo sekwe yo, yo tonbe nan bouch a sila k ap manje yo a.
all fortification your fig with firstfruit if to shake and to fall: fall upon lip to eat
13 Gade byen, pèp ou a se fanm yo ye pami nou! Pòtay peyi ou yo vin ouvri byen laj bay lènmi ou yo. Dife fin devore baryè pòtay ou yo.
behold people: soldiers your woman in/on/with entrails: among your to/for enemy your to open to open gate land: country/planet your to eat fire bar your
14 Rale dlo ou pou kont ou pou fè syèj la! Ranfòse fò ou yo! Antre nan ajil la, e foule mòtye a anba pye ou. Byen bati kay fou k ap fè brik yo fò!
water siege to draw to/for you to strengthen: strengthen fortification your to come (in): come in/on/with mud and to trample in/on/with clay to strengthen: hold brick
15 La, dife sa menm va vin devore ou nèt. Nepe va koupe retire ou nèt. Li va devore ou tankou krikèt volan. Li va fè ou vin anpil tankou yon krikèt volan. Li va fè ou vin anpil tankou krikèt.
there to eat you fire to cut: cut you sword to eat you like/as locust to honor: many like/as locust to honor: many like/as locust
16 Ou fin ogmante machann ou yo plis pase zetwal syèl yo— krikèt volan ravaje, epi, konsa, li vole ale.
to multiply to trade your from star [the] heaven locust to strip and to fly
17 Gad nou yo tankou krikèt. Jandam nou yo tankou gwo lame krikèt volan k ap poze sou wòch nan jou fredi. Lè solèy la leve yo sove ale. Kote yo rive a, pèsòn pa konnen.
prince your like/as locust and official your like/as locust locust [the] to camp in/on/with wall in/on/with day cold sun to rise and to wander and not to know place his where? they
18 Bèje ou yo ap dòmi, O wa Assyrie. Prens ou yo kouche nèt. Pèp ou an vin gaye sou mòn yo, e nanpwen moun ki pou rasanble yo.
to slumber to pasture your king Assyria to dwell great your to scatter people your upon [the] mountain: mount and nothing to gather
19 Nanpwen ti pansman pou sa k ap fè ou mal la. Blesi ou a p ap ka geri. Tout moun ki tande koze ou va bat men yo sou ou, paske kilès moun san rete, ki pa t resevwa nan mechanste ou?
nothing easing to/for breaking your be weak: grieved wound your all to hear: hear report your to blow palm upon you for upon who? not to pass distress: evil your continually
