1 Isiqalekiso ngeNiniva. Incwadi yombono kaNahume umʼElikhoshi.
Pa inge kas ke acn Nineveh, oana ma liyeyuk in sie aruruma lal Nahum, sie mwet Elkosh.
2 UThixo uNkulunkulu olobukhwele lophindiselayo; uThixo uyaphindisela njalo ulolaka olukhulu. UThixo uyaphindisela ezitheni zakhe lolaka lwakhe lukhulu ezitheni zakhe.
LEUM GOD El sie God loloik, El kalyaelos su lainul. El foloksak nu selos ke kasrkusrak lal.
3 UThixo uyaphuza ukuthukuthela njalo ulamandla amakhulu; uThixo kayikumyekela olecala engajeziswanga. Indlela yakhe iphakathi kwesivunguzane lesiphepho, amayezi aluthuli lwezinyawo zakhe.
LEUM GOD El tia sa in kasrkusrakak, Tusruktu El arulana ku, Ac pacl nukewa El kalyei mwet su oru ma koluk. Yen LEUM GOD El fahsr we, eng upa ac sikyak; Kutkut in ye nial orala pukunyeng uh!
4 Ukhuza ulwandle alomise; wenza yonke imifula itshe. IBhashani leKhameli kuyabuna lemiqhakazo yaseLebhanoni ibune.
El sap ku nu sin meoa, ac meoa paola! El akpaoyela pac infacl uh. Ima in acn Bashan uli, Insroan fineol Carmel srusrala, Ac ros in acn Lebanon efla.
5 Izintaba ziyanyikinyeka phambi kwakhe, lamaqaqa ayancibilika. Umhlaba uyagedezela ngobukhona bakhe, umhlaba labo bonke abahlala kuwo.
Eol uh kusrusr ye mutun LEUM GOD, Eol srisrik uh kofelik ye mutal. Faclu usrusryak ke pacl LEUM GOD El sikla; Faclu ac mwet nukewa fac rarrar.
6 Ngubani ongamelana lentukuthelo yakhe na? Ngubani ongalumela ulaka lwakhe oluvuthayo na? Ulaka lwakhe luthululeka njengomlilo; amadwala ayaqhekezeka phambi kwakhe.
Ke pacl El kasrkusrak, su ku in moulla? Su ku in moulla liki foloyak lal? El okoala fulen kasrkusrak lal; Eot uh mwesri nu ke kutkut ye mutal.
7 UThixo ulungile, uyisiphephelo ezikhathini zokuhlupheka. Uyabakhathalela abathembele kuye,
LEUM GOD El wo; El loango mwet lal in pacl in ongoiya; El karinganulos su nget nu sel.
8 kodwa ngesikhukhula esikhulu uzatshabalalisa iNiniva; uzaxotshela izitha zakhe emnyameni.
El arulana kunausla mwet lokoalok lal oana sie sronot lulap su fungla. El supwala mwet su lainul nu infulan misa.
9 Loba engamacebo bani abawenza ngoThixo, uzawaqeda; ukuhlupheka akuyikubuya kabili.
Mea kowos pwapa sulali sang lain LEUM GOD? El ac kunauskowosla. Wangin mwet ku in alein nu sel pacl luo.
10 Bazathandeleka phakathi kwameva, bedakwe liwayini labo; bazaqothulwa njengenhlanga ezomileyo.
Kowos su lungse sruhi ac fah isisyak Oana kokul su pinpinla ac sroan mah pao.
11 Wena Nineve, kuwe sekufike lowo oceba okubi ngoThixo, eluleke okubi.
Oasr sie mwet su tuku liki kom, Nineveh, sesseslana ke pwapa sulal elan oru lain LEUM GOD.
12 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Lanxa belababambene labo njalo bebanengi, bazaqothulwa banyamalale. Lanxa ngikuhluphile, wena Juda, kangisayikukuhlupha futhi.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet Israel, mwet lal: “Mwet Assyria finne ku ac pus suna, elos ac fah kunausyukla ac wanginla. Mwet luk, nga tuh akkeokye kowos meet, tusruktu nga fah tia sifilpa oru.
13 Khathesi ngizakwephula ijogwe labo elisentanyeni yakho, ngiqamule lamaketane akho.”
Inge nga fah aksafyela ku lun Assyria fowos, ac wotyalik sein ma kaprikowosi.”
14 UThixo usekhuphe ilizwi ngawe Nineve elithi, “Kawuyikuba lezizukulwane ezibizwa ngebizo lakho. Ngizachitha izifanekiso ezibaziweyo lezithombe ezibunjiweyo ezisethempelini labonkulunkulu bakho. Ngizalungisa ingcwaba lakho, ngoba ungcolile.”
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El wotela ke mwet Assyria: “Ac fah wangin tulik natulos in folokonak inen sou lalos. Nga fah kunausla ma sruloala su oan in tempul lun god lalos. Nga akoo sie kulyuk nu sin mwet Assyria — tia fal elos in moul!”
15 Khangela ezintabeni le, inyawo zalowo oletha izindaba ezinhle, omemezela ukuthula! Thakazelela imikhosi yakho we Juda, ugcwalise lezifungo zakho. Ababi kabasayikukuhlasela futhi; bazachithwa ngokupheleleyo.
Liye, mwet roso se pa tuku fineol uh me ingo, ac use pweng wo! El fahsr in sulkakin ke kutangla! Mwet Judah, oru kufwa in akfulat lowos an, ac sang nu sin God ma kowos wulela ku mu kowos ac sang nu sel an. Mwet koluk fah tia sifilpa utyak mweuni acn lowos. Wutiyukla na pwaye elos!
