Nahumu 3

1 Ninive rankumapima nemaniza vahe'mota kva hiho. Tamagra havige nehuta vahe zamahe nefriza vahe mani'naze. Ana nehuta hapinti vahe feno zantamina rohu zamareta Ninive kumapina eri ante avite'naze.

Ole kwa mji uliojaa damu! Wote umejaa uongo na mali za wizi; wahanga wapo kwake daima.

2 Ha' vahe'mokizmi sondia vahe'mo'za karisi zamifi mani'neza hosi afu zamima sefu'ma rumeki nezami'zama neazageno neria agasasane, karisi zamimofo tazamo'ma havema refaragu'ma vazino ne-ea zamofa agasasane, hosi afuzamimo'zama vagari vagarima hu'za esaza zamofo zamagasasankea antahigahaze.

Lakini sasa kunasauti ya mijeledi na sauti za kugongesha matairi, farasi wakicheza, na magari ya vita yanaruka ruka.

3 Ha' vahe'mo'za hosi agumpi manine'za taragi'za ne-eazageno, bainati kazi zamireti'ene karugaru keve zamiretira ru marave marave nehanige'za egahaze. Ana nehu'za rama'a vahe eme zamahe frisnageno, frisaza vahe'mokizmi zamavufagamo'a hihi huno amne zankna huno hamprigara osugahie. Ana hanige'za vahe'mo'za zamaga ana zamagofetu re'za vano nehu'za tanafara hugahaze.

Kuna wapanda farasi wanashambulia, Upanga unang'ara, mikuki inametameta, marundo ya maiti, mafungu makubwa ya miili; hakuna ukomo wa miili, washambuliaji wanajikwaa juu yake.

4 E'i ana zama fore'ma haniana na'ankure, Ninive kumamo'a mago knare agi agonane monko a'mo'ma safeza huno vene'nema zamavare agrarega atreankna huno, maka kumatamimpi vahera zamazeri savari hige'za eme monko avu'ava zana nehazageno, safe'zama nehia zantamina rempi huzamige'za ana avu'ava hu'nazagu anara hugahie.

Hii inatokea kwa sababu ya matendo ya tamaa ya kahaba mzuri, mzoefu wa uchawi, mwenye kuuza taifa kwa umalaya wake, na watu kwa njia ya matendo yake ya kichawi.

5 Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nehie, Ninive kumamoka hara hugante'na siketi kenaka'a erisga hu'na kavugosa refitenunka kavufga kavapako oti'nesanke'za maka ama mopafi vahe'mo'za negagesagenka tusi kagazegu hugahane.

“Tazama, mimi nipo kinyume na wewe- hili ni neno la Yehova wa majeshi- sketi yako nitaiinua juu ya uso wako na kuzionyesha sehemu zako za siri kwa mataifa, aibu yako kwa falme.

6 Nagra himna vu'nesania tetemuteti kazeri haviza hugahue. Nagrama kazeri havizama hanua zana maka ama mopafi vahe'mo'za negesu'za kiza zokago ke hugantegahaze.

Nitarusha uchafu wa kuchukiza na kukufanya uwe mbaya sana; nitakufanya uwe mtu wa kutazamwa na kila mmoja.

7 Ana maka vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma kagesaza vahe'mo'za, zamagia zamefigati reme reme nevu'za amanage hugahaze. Ninive kumamo'a haviza huno kugusopafi maseanagi, iza eno zavira eme atenentesigeno, iza eno eme asunkura hunenteno azeri so'ea huntegahie? hu'za hugahaze.

Itakuwa kwamba kila mmoja anayekutazama atakukimbia na kusema, “Ninawi ameharibika; ni nani ataomboleza kwa ajili yake?' Ni wapi nitampata mtu anayeweza kukufariji?”

8 Naeli ran timofo ankenaregama Tebesi kumamo'ma knare'ma huno me'negeno'ma, timo'ma kagintegeno'ma me'nea kumara kagra Ninive kumamoka rugaterenka knarera hu'nampi? Ana kumamofona hagerimo vihugnara huntegeno timo'a maka asoparega keginagna huno mekaginte'neno agura nevazie.

Ninawi, je wewe ni bora kuliko Noamoni, uliojengwa juu ya Mto Naili, uliokuwa umezungukwa na maji, ambao ulinzi wake ilikuwa bahari, ambao ukuta wake ilikuwa bahari yenyewe?

9 Itiopia mopafi vahe'mo'zane, Isipi mopafi vahe'mo'za Tebesi rankumapi vahera ozmatre zamazahu vava nehaze. Ana nehakeno ana knafinena Puti mopafi vahe'mo'zane Libia mopafi vahe'mo'za zamagranena Tebesi mopafi vahera zamaza huke hara hu'na'e.

Ethiopia na Misri zilikuwa nguvu zake, na mwisho wake haukuwepo; Putu na Libya walikuwa rafiki zake.

10 Hianagi Tebesi rankumara ha' vahe'mo'za eme ha' hunte'za eri haviza nehu'za vahera zamavare'za kuma zamirega kina ome huzmante'naze. Ne'onse mofavre naga zaminena zamazerite'za maka kumamofo kantu hanafi ruragati'za zamahe'naze. Sondia vahe'mo'za satu zokago re'za nege'za, Isipi kamanimofo eri'za vahera refko hu'za eri'za vahe'zami zamare'naze. Ana nehu'za Tebesi rankuma'ma kvama hu'naza kva vahetamina seni nofiteti kina huzmante'naze.

Lakini Noamoni alichukuliwa; alikwenda kwenye mateka; watoto wake wadogo walivunjwa vipande vipande katika kila makao makuu ya mtaa; adui zake walipiga kura kwa watu wake wenye heshima na wakuu wake wote walifungwa minyororo.

11 Ninive kumamoka, kagranena aka ti ne'naza vahe'mo'za neginagi nehazankna hugahane. Ana nehunka ha' vahe'mokizmigu koro nehunka frakisana kumaku hakegahane.

Wewe pia utalewa; utajaribu kujificha, na utatafuta makimbilio kutoka kwa adui yako.

12 Kagri'ma ha'ma eme hugantenaza vahe'mo'za, kumamofo vihu keginaka'a eme tapage hutrenageno, mago vahe'mo fiki zafa eri tagosi tagosi nehigeno, ese'ma afure'nea fiki ragamo evuramino vahe agipi freankna hugahie.

Ngome zako zote zitakuwa kama mitini yenye tini zilizoiva mapema: kama zikitikiswa, zitaangukia kwenye kimywa cha mlaji.

13 Kagri sondia vahe'mokizmia, a'nemofoma hiaza huno hankave zamia omane amane hanige'za mago zana osugahaze. Kagri mopafima ha' vahe'mo'zama efresaza kamo'a ruhagro hugahie. Ran kumamofo kafante'ma eri rusima nehaza zafa tevemo teno eri hana hugahie.

Tazama, watu miongoni mwenu ni wanawake; malango ya nchi yako yamefunguliwa sana kwa ajili ya adui zako; moto umeharibu bawaba zake.

14 Kagri ha' vahe'mo'zama kuma'ma eme avazagi kagi sagenka'ma kumamofo agu'afima mani'nenka'ma nesana zana tina afinka retro huo. Ana nehunka kumamofo vihu kegina eri hankavetio. Higo mopa kafinka eri hapa hapa hunka simentia tro hutenka, kuma kegina hunka eri hankavetio.

Nenda ukachote maji kwenye boma iliyozingirwa; ziimarishe ngome zako; nenda kwenye udongo na kandamiza matope; finyanga kwa ajili ya matofali.

15 Hianagi Ninive kumamoka kagria tevemo teno eri hana nehanige'za, ha' vahe'mo'za bainati kazinteti vahera eme zamahe hana hugahaze. Ha' vahe'mo'za kenu'mo traza neno eri fananema hiaza hu'za tamagrira tamahe vaga nere'za, nazamo'ma zamavugama evania zanena kege'za otre ne'za eri fanane hugahaze. Tamagra kora kenu'mo hiaza huta rama'a vahe fore huta eri hakare hu'nazanagi, tamagrama freta ome tamagu'ma vazisaza kana omanetfa hugahie!

Moto utakuteketeza pale, na upanga utakuangamiza. Utateketezwa kama nzige wachanga wanavyoteketeza kila kitu. Ninyi wenyewe mjitengeneze kuwa wengi kama nzige wachanga, na wengi kama nzinge waliopevuka.

16 Monafi hanafi'ma me'neama'a rugatere'za zagorema nanazama atre'za eri'zama nehaza vahe'mo'za tamagripina kora mani'nazane. Hianagi kenumo'za zafani'na vatari hana hute'za, zamageko'na rutare'za hare'za frazankna hugahaze.

Umezidisha wafanyabiashara wako zaidi kuliko nyota mbinguni; lakini wapo kama tunutu: wanapora nchi na kisha kuruka kwenda mbali.

17 Tamagri sondia vahe'mo'zane, kva vahe'mo'za zamagranena kenukna hu'nazanki'za, zasi ko'matia knafima kenumo'zama magopi hare'za e'za keginare eme rukamarazankna nehaze. Hianagi zagema hanatige'za ana kenu tamimo'za hare'za frazankna hu'za, inantego frazage'za vahe'mo'za nozamagaze.

Wafalme wenu wapo wengi kama zinge, na wakuu wenu wa majeshi ni kama kundi la wadudu wenye kuweka kambi katika ukuta wakati wa baridi. Lakini jua linapowaka wanaruka kwenda mbali ambako hakuna anayepajua.

18 Asiria kini ne'moka, sipisipi afute kva vahekamo'zane, eri'za vahekamo'zanena zamavu mase'naze. Ana hu'nazage'za sipisipi afute kva vahe omani'negeno sipisipi afutamimo agona agona panani huno freankna hu'za, kagri vahe'mo'za panani hu'za ufre efre hu'naze. Ana hu'nazankino mago vahe'mo zamazeri tru hugara osu'ne.

Mfalme wa Ashuru, wachungaji wako wamelala; watawala wako wamejilaza chini kupumzika. Watu wako wametawanyika juu ya milima, na hakuna hata mmoja wa kuwakusanya.

19 Kagrama hazenkema eri'nana zamo'a, mago namunkna hu'neankino marasinimo'a kazeri kanamaregara osu'ne. Kagrama hazenkema erina nanekema vahe'mo'zama antahisu'za, muse nehu'za zamaza ahegahaze. Na'ankure kagra mago vahera otre havi avu'ava zama huzamante vavama hu'nana zanku anara hugahaze.

Hakuna uponyaji unaowezekana kwa ajili ya vidonda vyako. Vidonda vyako ni vikubwa. Wanaosikia habari juu yako watapiga makofi kwa furaha juu yako. Ni nani aliyejiepusha kwa uovu wako wa daima?
