1 Ninive kumamoka kagri'ma eme ha'ma huganteno kahe panini'ma hania vahera hago ne-e. Ana nehigu kuma'ma kegavama hanaza vahera huzmantege'za kumamofo vihu keginare manine'za, ha' vahe'ma esnaza kantega zamavua antene'za kegava hiho. Ana nehanageta sondia vahera zamazeri retrotra nehuta hankavetita hara hiho.
[You people of] [APO] Nineveh, your enemies are coming to attack you. [So] place guards on the tops of the walls around the city! Guard the roads [into the city]! Get ready to fight! Gather your troops/soldiers [MTY] together!
2 Ha' vahe'mo'za kora Israeli vahera hara eme huzamante'za maka zana eri haviza nehu'za waini hoza zaminena eri haviza hu'nazane. Hianagi menina Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahera ete zamazeri so'e nehuno, ko'ma hu'neaza huno ra zamagi zami'naku nehie.
Even though enemy soldiers have destroyed the descendants of [MTY] Jacob, Yahweh will cause them to be honored again. Israel is like a grapevine that has been ruined, but Israel will prosper again.
3 Hankave sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma eme huramante'naku'ma esazana koranke hankorami eri'ne'za, koranke kukena antani'nesaza vahe'mo'za egahaze. Hanki ana vahe'mokizmi karisimofo ainiretira zamagama neresageno'a tevemo'ma nehiaza huno ruganani nehanige'za egahaze. Ana nehanage'za sondia vahe'mo'za karugaru kevezamia erintesga hanageno tevesesaza nemesanige'za egahaze.
The shields of the enemy soldiers [who are coming to attack you] will shine red [as the sun shines on them], and they will wear bright red uniforms. The metal of their chariot [wheels] will flash when they line up [before the battle], and their soldiers will lift up their cypress/pine spears and wave them.
4 Rankumamofo amu'nompima ne'onse kantamima me'nefine, kumamofo amunompima kankamuma me'nege'za vahe'ma atruma nehazafinena, sondia vahe'mo'za karisifi mani'neza ame hu'za rugitagi'za vu'za e'za hugahaze. E'inama hanaza zamo'a kopasi'namo ruganani huteno, tavi tagi vazu huno vuno eno hiaza hugahaze.
Their chariots will dash through the streets [of Nineveh] and rush furiously through the plazas. Going as quick as lightning, they will resemble flaming torches.
5 Kini ne'mo'a eri'za vahe'a huzamantenige'za ame hu'za vunaku hanazanagi, tanafa hu'za masegahaze. Ana'ma nehu'za ame hu'za kumamofo vihu keginare vu'za, fra'ma ki'za manine'za ha'ma hanaza kumara retro hugahaze.
[Meanwhile], your king will summon his officers who will stumble as they [try to] come [quickly]. They will dash to the [city] wall, holding their shields to protect themselves.
6 Rantimofo kahana ahenagisigeno, ana timo'a kini ne'mofo nonkumara emeri haviza hugahie.
But, the gates [of the dams] on the rivers will be thrown open [by enemy soldiers], and [the flood will cause] the palace to collapse.
7 Ninive kumapima nemaniza vahera zamavare'za kina ome huzmanteho huno kea ko hunte'ne. Anama hanage'za zamagazegu nehanage'za kazokazo eri'zama e'neriza mofa'nemo'za zamimizare nemasagi'za, maho namamo'ma nehiaza hu'za zamasunku nehu'za zavi krafa hugahaze.
The queen will have her clothes stripped off her [by enemy soldiers], and her slave girls will moan like doves and beat their breasts [to show that they are very sad].
8 Ko'ma meno e'nea knafina Ninive kumamo'a mago tirukna hu'neane. Hianagi menina ana kumapi vahe'mo'za atre'za freza vu'za e'za hu'naze. Ana nehazageno mago vahe'mo'a huno anante otiho! anante otiho! Huno hu'neanagi, magomo'e huno ana kea ontahino rukrahera huno ome'neanki maka'moza atre'za fre'naze.
[The people will rush from] Nineveh like [SIM] water rushes from a broken dam. [The officials] will shout, “Stop! Stop!” but the people will not even look back [as they run away].
9 Ha'ma eme huzamantaza vahe'mo'za kezati'za, Ninive kumapina marerisa feno zantamimo'a aviteno hamprigara osu'neanki rohu zamareta maka silva zagone golinena eri vagareho hu'za hu'naze.
[The enemy attackers say to each other, ] “Seize the silver! Grab the gold! There is a huge amount of very valuable things in this city, more valuable things than anyone can count!”
10 Ninive kumara ha' vahe'mo'za eme rohu zamare'za maka zana eri havizantfa hazageno, mago zana omanetfa hu'ne. Vahe'mokizmi tumo'mo'a atanegeno zamarenamo'a zamahirahi re'ne. Ana nehazageno hankave zamimo'a omanetfa nehige'za, zamanogu nehazageno zamavugosamo'a korankifa ahene.
[Soon everything valuable in the city] will be seized or ruined. People will be trembling, with the result that they will not be able to fight. Their faces will all become pale.
11 Kora Ninive kumara hankavenentake kuma me'neankino, ana kumapima mani'naza vahe'mo'za mago havegampi laionimo'za anenta'aramine manine'za, anampina ne'zana nene'za mago zankura korora nosu'za knare hu'za nemanizankna hu'neane. Hianagi menina ana kumamo'a iga vu'ne?
[After that happens, people will say, ] “What happened to [RHQ] that [great city of Nineveh]? [It was like] [MET] a den [full] of young lions, where the male and female lions lived and fed the young ones.
12 Kora Ninive kumapima nemaniza sondia vahe'mo'za hankavenentake hu'nazanki'za, laionimo zagagafa aheno anenta'arami eme ante hihi huzmantegeno, a' laionimo'za nemaniza havegampima zagagafamo aviteaza hu'za, hapinti zana eri'za eme eri hihi hu'naze.
[The soldiers in Nineveh were like] [MET] lions that killed or strangled [other animals] [and brought the meat] to their dens.”
13 Hankavenentake Ra Anumzana Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra Ninive kumamoka hara hugantenaku nehuankina karisiraminka'a tevefi hanavazi'na negresuge'za, ha' vahe'mo'za nehazaveraminka'a bainati kazinteti zamahe hana hugahaze. Ko'ma vahe'mokizmi feno zama ha'ma huzamagaterenka eri'nana knara hunka ru'enena e'origahane. Huzmantanke'za kema eri'za vu'za e'zama nehaza vahe'mo'zama, kema eri'za ha' vahete'ma vanazana, ko'ma nehazaza hu'za kezmia ontahigahaze.
The Commander of the armies of angels says [to the people of Nineveh], “I am opposed to you; I will cause your chariots to [be burned in fires and] go up in smoke. Your young men will be killed with swords. [Your soldiers] will never again conquer [other nations] and seize their valuable possessions. Your messengers will never again take messages [to other nations, demanding that their armies surrender to them].”
