1Onus Ninive. Liber visionis Nahum Elcesæi.
1THE BURDEN of 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 avengeth and is full of wrath; the LORD taketh vengeance on His adversaries, and He reserveth 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 long-suffering, and great in power, and will by no means clear the guilty; the LORD, in the whirlwind and in the storm is His way, and the clouds are the dust of His feet.
4Increpans mare, et exsiccans illud, et omnia flumina ad desertum deducens. Infirmatus est Basan et Carmelus, et flos Libani elanguit.
4He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers; Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
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 at Him, and the hills melt; and the earth is upheaved at His presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
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 stand before His indignation? And who can abide in the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken asunder before Him.
7Bonus Dominus, et confortans in die tribulationis, et sciens sperantes in se.
7The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knoweth them that take refuge in Him.
8Et in diluvio prætereunte consummationem faciet loci ejus, et inimicos ejus persequentur tenebræ.
8But with an overrunning flood He will make a full end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue His enemies.
9Quid cogitatis contra Dominum? Consummationem ipse faciet: non consurget duplex tribulatio,
9What do ye devise against the LORD? He will make a full end; trouble shall not rise up the second time.
10quia sicut spinæ se invicem complectuntur, sic convivium eorum pariter potantium; consumentur quasi stipula ariditate plena.
10For though they be like tangled thorns, and be drunken according to their drink, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
11Ex te exibit cogitans contra Dominum malitiam, mente pertractans prævaricationem.
11Out of thee came he forth, that deviseth evil against the LORD, that counselleth wickedness.
12Hæc dicit Dominus: Si perfecti fuerint, et ita plures, sic quoque attondentur, et pertransibit: afflixi te, et non affligam te ultra.
12Thus saith the LORD: Though they be in full strength, and likewise many, even so shall they be cut down, and he shall pass away; and though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
13Et nunc conteram virgam ejus de dorso tuo, et vincula tua disrumpam.
13And now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
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.
14And the LORD hath given commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown; out of the house of thy god will I cut off the graven image and the molten image; I will make thy grave; for thou art become worthless.
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.]
15(2-1) Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that announceth peace! Keep thy feasts, O Judah, perform thy vows; for the wicked one shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
