< Nahum 2 >
1 Bitchit qilidighan birsi köz aldingghila keldi; Emdi istihkam üstide közet qil, Yolgha qara, bélingni baghla, küchliringni yighip téximu kücheyt!
Nineveh! The destroyer has come up against you; mount guard upon the rampart; watch the road; brace yourselves; strengthen your might to the utmost.
2 (Chünki Perwerdigar Yaqupning shan-sheripini eslige keltürdi, Uni Israilning shan-sheripige layiq derijide eslige keltürdi; Chünki quruqdighuchilar ularni quruqdap qoyghanidi, Ularning üzüm tal shaxlirini weyran qilghanidi).
For the Lord is restoring the majesty of Jacob and of Israel, though the devastators have plundered them and destroyed their vines.
3 [Bitchit qilghuchining] palwanlirining qalqanliri qizil boyaldi, Uning baturliri perengde kiygüzüldi; Teyyarliq künide, jeng harwiliri polatning julasida yaltirap kétidu, Neyziler oynitilidu;
The shields of his warriors are dyed red, his soldiers are clothed in scarlet, his chariots gleam like fire on the day he prepares for battle spears are shaken.
4 Jeng harwiliri kochilarda güldürliship chépishiwatidu; Keng yollarda bir-birige soqulidu; Ularning qiyapiti mesh’ellerdek bolidu, Ular chaqmaqlardek yügürüshidu.
Chariots rush across the fields, storm through the squares; they flame like torches, they dart like lightening.
5 [Serdar] emirlirige emr chüshüridu; Ular yürüsh qilghinida aldirighinidin bir-birige putliship mangidu; Ninewening sépiligha qarap aldiraydu, [Bashlirigha] bolsa «muhasire qalqini» teyyarlinidu.
A leader rallies his nobles, they hurl themselves forward. They speed on toward the wall; the storming-shield is set up.
6 «Deryalarning derwaziliri» échilidu, [Padishahning] ordisi érip kétidu.
The water-gates are thrown open, and the palace dissolves in ruins.
7 Xuzzabning bolsa uyatliri échilidu — [Düshmen] teripidin yalap épkétilidu, Dédekliri xuddi paxteklerning sadasidek ah-uh tartip, Meydilirini urup kétidu.
The queen is stripped, she is carried off. Her maids moan like doves, beating upon their breasts.
8 Ninewe apiride bolghandin béri köl süyidek [tinch] bolup keldi, Biraq ular hazir qéchip kétidu... Ey toxta! Ey toxta! — Biraq héchkim keynige qarimaydu.
Like a pool of water is Nineveh, her waters fast ebbing away. ‘Stand firm! Stand firm!’ someone cries, but no one turns back.
9 Kümüshlerni buliwélinglar, altunlarni buliwélinglar; Chünki uning shewketlik xezinisidiki qimmet qacha-quchilirining sani yoqtur.
‘Loot the silver, loot the gold, for there is no end to the treasure, the wealth and precious things.’
10 U quruqdalghan, weyran qilin’ghan, berbat bolghan! Yüriki érip kétidu, Tizliri bir-birige jalaqlap tegmekte; Belliri tolghaq tutqandek tolghinidu, Barliq yüzler tatirip kétidu.
Nineveh is empty, desolate, devastated, with faint heart and knocking knee. There is weakness in every limb, and faces grow pale.
11 Qéni, shirlarning uwisi? Yash shirlar ozuqlinidighan jay, Shir, chishi shir, shir arslini héchkimdin qorqmay yürgen jay qéni?
Where now is the den of lions? Where now the lair of their young? Where the lion used to withdraw, with his cubs, with none to disturb them?
12 Shir öz arslanlirini qandurushqa owlarni titma-titma qilghanidi, Chishi shirliri üchün owlarni boghqanidi; Öngkürlirini ow bilen, uwilirini olja bilen toshquzghanidi.
The lion tore enough for his cubs, and strangled prey for his lionesses. He filled his caves with the kill, he filled his lairs with fresh meat.
13 Mana, Men sanga qarshimen, — deydu samawi qoshunlarning Serdari bolghan Perwerdigar; Men séning jeng harwiliringni is-tütekke aylandurup köydüriwétimen; Qilich yash shirliringni yewatidu, Owangni yer yüzidin élip tashlaymen; Elchiliringning awazliri qayta héch anglanmaydu.
‘But see, I am against you,’ the Lord of hosts declares, ‘I will burn your chariots in smoke and fire. The sword will devour your young lions. You will never again prey on the land. No more will your messengers be heard.’
