ناحوم 3
| ئەی شاری خوێن، قوڕبەسەرت، سەراپای درۆیە، پڕ لە تاڵانە، نێچیری لێ نابڕێت! | 1 |
Terrible things will happen to [Nineveh], that city [that is full of people who] murder [MTY] and lie. [The city is] full of things that were seized [from other countries by their soldiers]; [their armies] continually [LIT] have acted brutally towards people whom they conquered.
| شریقەی قامچی، خشەخشی چەرخ، غاردانی ئەسپ و هەڵبەزینی گالیسکە! | 2 |
But [now listen to the enemy soldiers coming to attack Nineveh]; [listen to them] cracking their whips, and [listen to the] rattle of [their chariot] wheels! [Listen to] their galloping horses and their chariots as they bounce along!
| سوارەکان پێشدەکەون، بڵێسەی شمشێر و بروسکەی ڕم! زۆری برینداران و زۆری کوژراوان، تەرمی بێشومار، خەڵکی ساتمە لە تەرمەکان دەکەن. | 3 |
[Look at their] flashing swords and glittering spears as the horsemen race forward! Many [people of Nineveh will be] killed; [there will be] piles of corpses, [with the result that] people will stumble over them.
| هەموو ئەمانە لەبەر زۆری داوێنپیسی لەشفرۆشەکەیە، ڕوخسار جوان و جادووگەرە گەورەکە، ئەوەی بە داوێنپیسییەکەی نەتەوەکانی کردە کۆیلە، بە جادووگەرییەکەی خێڵەکان. | 4 |
All [that will happen] because [Nineveh is like] [MET] a beautiful prostitute [who lures men to where they will be ruined]; [Nineveh is a beautiful city] which has attracted/enticed [people of] other nations [to come there]. [The people of Nineveh] taught those people [of other nations rituals of] magic, and caused them to become their slaves.
| یەزدانی سوپاسالار دەفەرموێت: «من لە دژی تۆم. دامێنت هەڵدەبڕم بۆ سەر ڕووت، ڕووتیت پیشانی نەتەوەکان دەدەم و پاشایەتییەکانیش شەرمەزاریت دەبینن. | 5 |
[So] the Commander of the armies of angels says to [the people of Nineveh]: “I am your enemy, and I will [cause the people in other] nations to see you [completely] humiliated like [MET] [women who have committed adultery are humiliated by] having their skirts lifted high, [with the result that] people can see their naked [bodies].
| پیسایی فڕێدەدەمە سەرت، ڕیسوات دەکەم و دەتکەمە دیمەنێکی گاڵتەجاڕی. | 6 |
I will cause rubbish/garbage to be thrown at you; I will show [others] that I despise you very much, and I will cause you to be publicly ridiculed.
| جا هەرکەسێک بتبینێت لێت ڕادەکات و دەڵێت:”نەینەوا کاول بوو، کێ بۆی دەگریێت؟“لەکوێ کەسێک ببینمەوە دڵنەواییت بکات؟» | 7 |
All those who see you will turn their backs to you and say, ‘Nineveh is ruined, but absolutely no one [RHQ] will mourn for it.’ No one will regret Nineveh being destroyed!”
| ئایا لە تیب چاکتریت، دانیشتووی سەر نیل، ئاو چواردەوری دابوو؟ ئەوەی ڕووبارەکە دەیپاراست، ئاوەکان شوورای بوون. | 8 |
Your city is certainly [RHQ] no safer than Thebes [city] was. [Thebes was an important city] beside the Nile [River]; the river was [like] [SIM] a wall that protected the city [DOU].
| کوش و میسر هێزی لە ڕادەبەدەری بوون، پووت و لیبییەکان هاوپەیمانی بوون. | 9 |
[The rulers of] Ethiopia and Egypt helped Thebes; there was no limit to their power. [The governments of the nearby countries of] Put and Libya were also allies of Thebes.
| بەڵام ئەو بە دیل گیرا و ڕاپێچ کرا، منداڵەکانی پارچەپارچە کران لەسەر سووچی هەموو شەقامێک. لەسەر پیاوماقوڵانی تیروپشک کرا و هەموو گەورە پیاوانی کۆت و زنجیر کران. | 10 |
But Thebes was captured, and [its people were] (exiled/forced to go to other countries). Their babies were dashed to pieces in the streets [of the city]. [Enemy soldiers] (cast lots/threw small marked stones) to decide who would get each official in Thebes [to become his slave]. All the leaders of Thebes were fastened/tied by chains.
| هەروەها تۆش سەرخۆش دەبیت، خۆت دەشاریتەوە و لە پەنایەک دەگەڕێیت لە دەستی دوژمن. | 11 |
You [people of Nineveh] will similarly become dazed and drunk, and you will search for places to hide [to escape] from your enemies.
| هەموو قەڵاکانت وەک داری هەنجیرن بە یەکەم بەرەوە، کە بتەکێن بەردەبنەوە بۆ ناو دەمی ئەو کەسەی دەیخوات. | 12 |
[Your enemies will cause] the walls around your city to fall down like [SIM] the first figs that fall from fig trees [each year]. [Your city will be captured easily, like] [MET] [figs that fall] into the mouths [HYP] of those who shake the fig trees.
| تەماشای سەربازەکانت بکە، هەموویان وەک ژنن! دەروازەکانی خاکەکەت بۆ دوژمنانت دەخرێنە سەر پشت، ئاگر شمشیرەی دەروازەکانت هەڵدەلووشێت. | 13 |
Look at your soldiers! They will be [as weak/helpless as] [MET] women! The gates of your city will be opened wide [to allow] your enemies [to enter them], [and then] the bars of those gates will be burned.
| ئاو بکێشەوە بۆ کاتی گەمارۆدراویت، قەڵاکانت بەهێز بکە! بڕۆ ناو قوڕەوە، قوڕ بشێلە و خشتبڕەکانت توندوتۆڵ بکە! | 14 |
Store up water [now to use when] your enemies surround the city! Repair the forts! Dig up clay and trample it [to make it soft], and put it into molds to make bricks [to repair the walls]!
| لەوێدا ئاگر دەتخوات، شمشێر دەتبڕێت و وەک پۆلە کوللە دەتخوات. وەک پۆلە کوللە زیادبە، زیادبە وەک پێکوڕە! | 15 |
[Nevertheless, your enemies] will burn your [city]; they will kill you with their swords; they will kill you like [SIM] locusts [destroy crops].
| بازرگانەکانی خۆت لە ئەستێرەکانی ئاسمان زۆرتر کرد، بەڵام وەک کوللە خاکەکە ڕووت دەکەنەوە و دەفڕن. | 16 |
In your [city] there are now very many merchants; [it seems that] there are more of them than there are stars. But [when your city is being destroyed, those merchants will take the valuable things and disappear] [like] [SIM] locusts that strip the leaves from plants and [then] fly away.
| پاسەوانەکانت وەک کوللەن، ئەفسەرەکانت وەک ڕەوە کوللەن، کە لە ڕۆژێکی سارد لەسەر دیوار هەڵنیشتوون، بەڵام کە خۆر هەڵهات دەفڕن، کەس نازانێ بەرەو کوێ چوون. | 17 |
Your leaders are [also] like a swarm of [SIM] locusts [DOU] that crowd together on the stone fences/walls on a cold day, and [then] fly away when the sun comes up, and no one knows where they have gone.
| ئەی پاشای ئاشور، شوانەکانت خەوتن، گەورە پیاوانت پاڵکەوتن پشوو بدەن. گەلەکەت لەسەر چیاکان پەرتەوازە بوون، کەس نییە کۆیان بکاتەوە. | 18 |
O King of Assyria, your officials will [all] be dead [EUP]; your important people will lie down and rest [forever]. Your people will be scattered over the mountains, and there will no one to gather them [together].
| شکانەکەت ناگیرێتەوە، برینەکەت ساڕێژ نابێت. هەموو ئەوانەی هەواڵی تۆ دەبیستن لە خۆشیدا چەپڵە لێ دەدەن، چونکە کێ نەیچێشتووە خراپەی بەردەوامی تۆ؟ | 19 |
You [are like someone who] has a wound that cannot be healed; [it will be] a wound that causes him to die. And all those who hear about what has happened to you will clap their hands [joyfully]. [They will say, ] “Everyone has [RHQ] suffered because he continually was [very] cruel to us.”
