Nahum 1
1 Jawabi game da Ninebe a littafin wahayin Nahum, mutumin Elkosh.
The word about Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2 Ubangiji Allah mai kishi ne, mai sakayya kuma. Ubangiji Allah mai kishi ne, mai ɗaukar fansa kuma. Ubangiji yakan ɗauki fansa a kan maƙiyansa, yakan ci gaba da fushi a kan abokan gābansa.
The Lord is a God who takes care of his honour and gives punishment for wrong; the Lord gives punishment and is angry; the Lord sends punishment on those who are against him, being angry with his haters.
3 Ubangiji mai jinkirin fushi ne, mai iko duka kuma. Ubangiji ba zai bar masu zunubi babu horo ba. Hanyarsa tana cikin guguwa da kuma hadari, gizagizai kuwa su ne ƙurar ƙafafunsa.
The Lord is slow to get angry and great in power, and will not let the sinner go without punishment: the way of the Lord is in the wind and the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
4 Yakan tsawata wa teku yă kuma busar da shi; yakan sa dukan koguna su kafe. Bashan da Karmel sun yi yaushi tohon Lebanon kuma ya koɗe.
He says sharp words to the sea and makes it dry, drying up all the rivers: Bashan is feeble, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon is without strength.
5 Duwatsu suna rawan jiki a gabansa tuddai kuma sun narke. Duniya da dukan abin da yake cikinta suna rawan jiki a gabansa.
The mountains are shaking because of him, and the hills flowing away; the earth is falling to bits before him, the world and all who are in it.
6 Wa zai iya tsaya wa fushinsa? Wa yake da ikon jimre wa zafin hasalarsa? Ana zuba fushinsa kamar wuta; aka kuma ragargaza duwatsu a gabansa.
Who may keep his place before his wrath? and who may undergo the heat of his passion? his wrath is let loose like fire and the rocks are broken open by him.
7 Ubangiji nagari ne, mafaka kuma a lokacin wahala. Yana kula da waɗanda suka dogara gare shi,
The Lord is good, a strong place in the day of trouble; and he has knowledge of those who take him for their safe cover.
8 amma da ambaliyar ruwa zai kawo Ninebe ga ƙarshe; zai fafari maƙiyansa zuwa cikin duhu.
But like water overflowing he will take them away; he will put an end to those who come up against him, driving his haters into the dark.
9 Dukan abin da suke ƙullawa game da Ubangiji zai kawo ga ƙarshe; wahala ba za tă sāke komowa ƙaro na biyu ba.
What are you designing against the Lord? he will put an end to it: his haters will not come up again a second time.
10 Za su sarƙafe a ƙaya, za su kuma bugu da ruwan inabinsu; za a laƙume su kamar busasshiyar ciyawa.
For though they are like twisted thorns, and are overcome as with drink, they will come to destruction like stems of grass fully dry.
11 Daga cikinki, ya Ninebe wani ya fito wanda ya ƙulla wa Ubangiji makirci yana ba da mugayen shawarwari.
One has gone out from you who is designing evil against the Lord, whose purposes are of no value.
12 Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, “Ko da yake sun yi tarayya, suna kuma da yawa, za a yanke su, a kawar a su. Ko da yake na ba ki azaba, ya Yahuda, ba zan ƙara ba ki azaba ba.
This is what the Lord has said: The days of my cause against you are ended; they are cut off and past. Though I have sent trouble on you, you will no longer be troubled.
13 Yanzu zan karya karkiyarsu daga wuyanki in kuma tsittsinke sarƙar da suka ɗaura ki.”
And now I will let his yoke be broken off you, and your chains be parted.
14 Ubangiji ya ba da umarni game da ke Ninebe, “Ba za ki sami zuriyar da za tă ci gaba da sunanki ba. Zan rurrushe siffofin da kuka sassaƙa da kuma gumakan da kuka ƙera gumakan da suke a cikin haikalin allolinku. Zan shirya kabarinki, domin ke muguwa ce.”
The Lord has given an order about you, that no more of your name are to be planted: from the house of your gods I will have the pictured and metal images cut off; I will make your last resting-place a place of shame; for you are completely evil.
15 Duba, can a bisa duwatsu, ga ƙafafu mai kawo labari mai daɗi, wanda yake shelar salama! Ki yi bukukkuwanki, ya Yahuda, ki kuma cika wa’adodinki. Mugaye ba za su ƙara mamaye ki ba; domin za a hallaka su ƙaƙaf.
See on the mountains the feet of him who comes with good news, giving word of peace! Keep your feasts, O Judah, give effect to your oaths: for the good-for-nothing man will never again go through you; he is completely cut off.
