Nahum Propheta 1

Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Berean Standard Bible
1Onus Ninive. Liber visionis Nahum Elcesæi.
1This is the burden against Nineveh, the book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite:
2[Deus æmulator, et ulciscens Dominus: ulciscens Dominus, et habens furorem: ulciscens Dominus in hostes suos, et irascens ipse inimicis suis.
2The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and full of wrath. The LORD takes vengeance on His foes and reserves wrath for His enemies.
3Dominus patiens, et magnus fortitudine, et mundans non faciet innocentem. Dominus in tempestate et turbine viæ ejus, et nebulæ pulvis pedum ejus.
3The LORD is slow to anger and great in power; the LORD will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. His path is in the whirlwind and storm, and clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
4Increpans mare, et exsiccans illud, et omnia flumina ad desertum deducens. Infirmatus est Basan et Carmelus, et flos Libani elanguit.
4He rebukes the sea and dries it up; He makes all the rivers run dry. Bashan and Carmel wither, and the flower of Lebanon wilts.
5Montes commoti sunt ab eo, et colles desolati sunt: et contremuit terra a facie ejus, et orbis, et omnes habitantes in eo.
5The mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles at His presence— the world and all its dwellers.
6Ante faciem indignationis ejus quis stabit? et quis resistet in ira furoris ejus? Indignatio ejus effusa est ut ignis, et petræ dissolutæ sunt ab eo.
6Who can withstand His indignation? Who can endure His burning anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; even rocks are shattered before Him.
7Bonus Dominus, et confortans in die tribulationis, et sciens sperantes in se.
7The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of distress; He cares for those who trust in Him.
8Et in diluvio prætereunte consummationem faciet loci ejus, et inimicos ejus persequentur tenebræ.
8But with an overwhelming flood He will make an end of Nineveh and pursue His enemies into darkness.
9Quid cogitatis contra Dominum? Consummationem ipse faciet: non consurget duplex tribulatio,
9Whatever you plot against the LORD, He will bring to an end. Affliction will not rise up a second time.
10quia sicut spinæ se invicem complectuntur, sic convivium eorum pariter potantium; consumentur quasi stipula ariditate plena.
10For they will be entangled as with thorns and consumed like the drink of a drunkard— like stubble that is fully dry.
11Ex te exibit cogitans contra Dominum malitiam, mente pertractans prævaricationem.
11From you, O Nineveh, comes forth a plotter of evil against the LORD, a counselor of wickedness.
12Hæc dicit Dominus: Si perfecti fuerint, et ita plures, sic quoque attondentur, et pertransibit: afflixi te, et non affligam te ultra.
12This is what the LORD says: “Though they are allied and numerous, yet they will be cut down and pass away. Though I have afflicted you, O Judah, I will afflict you no longer.
13Et nunc conteram virgam ejus de dorso tuo, et vincula tua disrumpam.
13For I will now break their yoke from your neck and tear away your shackles.”
14Et præcipiet super te Dominus; non seminabitur ex nomine tuo amplius: de domo Dei tui interficiam sculptile, et conflatile; ponam sepulchrum tuum, quia inhonoratus es.
14The LORD has issued a command concerning you, O Nineveh: “There will be no descendants to carry on your name. I will cut off the carved image and cast idol from the house of your gods; I will prepare your grave, for you are contemptible.”
15Ecce super montes pedes evangelizantis, et annuntiantis pacem. Celebra, Juda, festivitates tuas, et redde vota tua, quia non adjiciet ultra ut pertranseat in te Belial: universus interiit.]
15Look to the mountains— the feet of one who brings good news, who proclaims peace! Celebrate your feasts, O Judah; fulfill your vows. For the wicked will never again march through you; they will be utterly cut off.
