1The burden of Ninive. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elcesite.
1ΛΗΜΜΑ Νινευή, βιβλίον ὁράσεως Ναοὺμ τοῦ Ἐλκεσαίου.
2The Lord is a jealous God, and a revenger: the Lord is a revenger, and hath wrath: the Lord taketh vengeance on his adversaries, and he is angry with his enemies.
2Θεὸς ζηλωτὴς καὶ ἐκδικῶν Κύριος, ἐκδικῶν Κύριος μετὰ θυμοῦ, ἐκδικῶν Κύριος τοὺς ὑπεναντίους αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξαίρων αὐτὸς τούς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ.
3The Lord is patient, and great in power, and will not cleanse and acquit the guilty. The Lord’s ways are in a tempest, and a whirlwind, and clouds are the dust of his feet.
3Κύριος μακρόθυμος, καὶ μεγάλη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀθῷον οὐκ ἀθῳώσει Κύριος. ἐν συντελείᾳ καὶ ἐν συσσεισμῷ ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ νεφέλαι κονιορτὸς ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.
4He rebuketh the sea, and drieth it up: and bringeth all the rivers to be a desert. Basan languisheth and Carmel: and the dower of Libanus fadeth away.
4ἀπειλῶν θαλάσσῃ καὶ ξηραίνων αὐτὴν καὶ πάντας τοὺς ποταμοὺς ἐξερημῶν· ὠλιγώθη ἡ Βασανῖτις καὶ ὁ Κάρμηλος, καὶ τὰ ἐξανθοῦντα τοῦ Λιβάνου ἐξέλιπε.
5The mountains tremble at him, and the hills are made desolate: and the earth hath quaked at his presence, and the world, and all that dwell therein.
5τὰ ὄρη ἐσείσθησαν ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ ἐσαλεύθησαν· καὶ ἀνεστάλη ἡ γῆ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ ἡ σύμπασα καὶ πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν αὐτῇ.
6Who can stand before the face of his indignation? and who shall resist in the fierceness of his anger? his indignation is poured out like fire: and the rocks are melted by him.
6ἀπὸ προσώπου ὀργῆς αὐτοῦ τίς ὑποστήσεται; καὶ τίς ἀντιστήσεται ἐν ὀργῇ θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ; ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ τήκει ἀρχάς, καὶ αἱ πέτραι διεθρύβησαν ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
7The Lord is good and giveth strength in the day of trouble: and knoweth them that hope in him.
7χρηστὸς Κύριος τοῖς ὑπομένουσιν αὐτὸν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως καὶ γινώσκων τοὺς εὐλαβουμένους αὐτόν·
8But with a flood that passeth by, he will make an utter end of the place thereof: and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
8καὶ ἐν κατακλυσμῷ πορείας συντέλειαν ποιήσεται τούς ἐπεγειρομένους, καὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ διώξεται σκότος.
9What do ye devise against the Lord? he will make an utter end: there shall not rise a double affliction.
9τί λογίζεσθε ἐπὶ τὸν Κύριον; συντέλειαν αὐτὸς ποιήσεται, οὐκ ἐκδικήσει δὶς ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ἐν θλίψει·
10For as thorns embrace one another: so while they are feasting and drinking together, they shall be consumed as stubble that is fully dry.
10ὅτι ἕως θεμελίου αὐτοῦ χερσωθήσεται καὶ ὡς σμῖλαξ περιπλεκομένη βρωθήσεται καὶ ὡς καλάμη ξηρασίας μεστή.
11Out of thee shall come forth one that imagineth evil against the Lord, contriving treachery in his mind.
11ἐκ σοῦ ἐξελεύσεται λογισμὸς κατὰ τοῦ Κυρίου πονηρὰ βουλευόμενος ἐναντία.
12Thus saith the Lord: Though they were perfect: and many of them so, yet thus shall they be cut off, and he shall pass: I have afflicted thee, and I will afflict thee no more.
12τάδε λέγει Κύριος κατάρχων ὑδάτων πολλῶν· καὶ οὕτως διασταλήσονται, καὶ ἡ ἀκοή σου οὐκ ἐνακουσθήσεται ἔτι.
13And now I will break in pieces his rod with which he struck thy back, and I will burst thy bonds asunder.
13καὶ νῦν συντρίψω τὴν ράβδον αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ τοὺς δεσμούς σου διαρρήξω·
14And the Lord will give a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name shall be sown: I will destroy the graven and molten thing out of the house of thy God, I will make it thy grave, for thou art disgraced.
14καὶ ἐντελεῖται περὶ σοῦ Κύριος, οὐ σπαρήσεται ἐκ τοῦ ὀνόματός σου ἔτι· ἐξ οἴκου Θεοῦ σου ἐξολοθρεύσω τὰ γλυπτὰ καὶ χωνευτά· θήσομαι ταφήν σου, ὅτι ταχεῖς.
15Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, and that preacheth peace: O Juda, keep thy festivals, and pay thy vows: for Belial shall no more pass through thee again, he is utterly cut off.
