Nahúm 1
Reina Valera Contemporánea
1 Profecía acerca de Nínive.(A) Libro de la visión de Nahúm de Elcos.
2 El Señor es un Dios celoso y vengador;
es el Señor de la venganza y de la ira.
El Señor se venga de sus adversarios
y mantiene su enojo contra sus enemigos.
3 El Señor es lento para la ira,
y su poder es impresionante.
El Señor no tiene por inocente al culpable.
El Señor marcha en la tempestad y en el torbellino;
las nubes son el polvo que levantan sus pies.
4 El Señor reprende al mar,
y el mar y todos los ríos se secan.
Basán y el Carmelo fueron destruidos,
y destruido también lo mejor del Líbano.
5 Ante el Señor tiemblan los montes
y se desmoronan las colinas;
ante su presencia la tierra se estremece,
y tiemblan el mundo y sus habitantes.
6 ¿Quién puede enfrentarse a su ira?
¿Quién puede resistir el ardor de su enojo?
Su ira se extiende como el fuego,
y hace que las peñas se desgajen.
7 El Señor es bueno;
es un refugio en el día de la angustia.
El Señor conoce a los que en él confían,
8 pero destruye a sus adversarios
con una impetuosa inundación
y persigue con las tinieblas a sus enemigos.
9 ¿Hacen ustedes planes contra el Señor?
¡Él los deshará por completo,
y no tendrá que vengarse dos veces!
10 Podrán hacer estrechas alianzas,
como entretejidos espinos,
y saturarse de vino para darse valor,
pero serán consumidos como la hojarasca.
11 De ti, Nínive, salió el consejero perverso,
¡el que pensó hacerle daño al Señor!
12 Pero así ha dicho el Señor:
«Aunque ellos sean muchos y vivan tranquilos,
aun así serán destruidos y dejarán de existir.
Ya te he afligido bastante, Jerusalén,
y no volveré a afligirte.
13 Voy a hacer pedazos el yugo y las coyundas
que Nínive te ha impuesto.»
14 Acerca de ti, Nínive, el Señor ha ordenado
que no quede ni memoria de tu nombre.
Por causa de tu vileza serán destruidas
todas las esculturas y las estatuas fundidas
que hay en el templo de tu dios,
y allí se pondrá tu sepulcro.
Anuncio de la caída de Nínive
15 Ya se oyen sobre los montes
los pies del que trae buenas nuevas,
del que anuncia la paz.(B)
¡Celebra tus fiestas, Judá, y cumple tus votos!
¡Los malvados han perecido por completo,
y nunca más volverán a conquistarte!

1 Profecía acerca de Nínive. Libro de la visión que tuvo Nahúm de Elcós.
Manifestación del Señor
2 El Señor es un Dios celoso y vengador.
Señor de la venganza, Señor de la ira.
El Señor se venga de sus adversarios;
es implacable con sus enemigos.
3 El Señor es lento para la ira,
pero grande en poder.
El Señor no deja sin castigo al culpable.
Camina en el huracán y en la tormenta;
las nubes son el polvo de sus pies.
4 Reprende al mar y lo seca;
hace que todos los ríos se evaporen.
Los montes Basán y Carmelo pierden su lozanía;
el verdor del Líbano se marchita.
5 Ante él tiemblan las montañas
y se desmoronan las colinas.
Ante él se agita la tierra,
el mundo y todos los que en él habitan.
6 ¿Quién podrá resistir su indignación?
¿Quién podrá soportar el ardor de su ira?
Su furor se derrama como fuego;
ante él se resquebrajan las rocas.
Destrucción de Nínive
7 Bueno es el Señor;
es refugio en el día de la angustia
y conoce a los que en él confían.
8 Pero destruirá a Nínive[a]
con una inundación arrasadora;
¡aun en las tinieblas perseguirá a sus enemigos!
9 ¿Qué traman contra el Señor?
Él desbaratará sus planes;
la calamidad no se repetirá.
10 Serán consumidos como paja seca,
como espinos enmarañados,
como borrachos ahogados en vino.
11 De ti, Nínive, salió
el que trama el mal contra el Señor,
el que aconseja perversidades.
Liberación del opresor
12 Así dice el Señor:
«Aunque sean fuertes y numerosos,
serán arrancados y desaparecerán.
Aunque te he afligido,
no te afligiré más.
13 Voy a quebrar el yugo que te oprime,
voy a romper tus ataduras».
14 Pero acerca de ti, Nínive,
el Señor ha decretado:
«No tendrás descendientes que perpetúen tu nombre;
eliminaré de la casa de tus dioses
las imágenes talladas y las imágenes fundidas.
Te voy a preparar una tumba,
porque eres una infame».
Anuncio de la victoria sobre Nínive
15 ¡Miren! Ya se acerca por los montes
el que anuncia las buenas nuevas,
el que proclama la paz.
¡Celebra tus fiestas, Judá!
¡Paga tus promesas!
Porque no volverán a invadirte los malvados,
pues han sido destruidos por completo.

Nahum 1
King James Version
Nahum 1
King James Version
1 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
2 God is jealous, and the Lord revengeth; the Lord revengeth, and is furious; the Lord will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserveth wrath for his enemies.
3 The Lord is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the Lord hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
4 He rebuketh the sea, and maketh it dry, and drieth up all the rivers: Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languisheth.
5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt, and the earth is burned at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein.
6 Who 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 thrown down by him.
7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.
8 But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.
9 What do ye imagine against the Lord? he will make an utter end: affliction shall not rise up the second time.
10 For while they be folden together as thorns, and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
11 There is one come out of thee, that imagineth evil against the Lord, a wicked counsellor.
12 Thus saith the Lord; Though they be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
13 For now will I break his yoke from off thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
14 And the Lord hath given a commandment concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make thy grave; for thou art vile.
15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace! O Judah, keep thy solemn feasts, perform thy vows: for the wicked shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.

God’s Mercy and Judgment
1 The [a]burden (A)against Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.
God’s Wrath on His Enemies
2 God is (B)jealous, and the Lord avenges;
The Lord avenges and is furious.
The Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries,
And He reserves wrath for His enemies;
3 The Lord is (C)slow to anger and (D)great in power,
And will not at all acquit the wicked.
(E)The Lord has His way
In the whirlwind and in the storm,
And the clouds are the dust of His feet.
4 (F)He rebukes the sea and makes it dry,
And dries up all the rivers.
(G)Bashan and Carmel wither,
And the flower of Lebanon wilts.
5 The mountains quake before Him,
The hills melt,
And the earth [b]heaves at His presence,
Yes, the world and all who dwell in it.
6 Who can stand before His indignation?
And (H)who can endure the fierceness of His anger?
His fury is poured out like fire,
And the rocks are thrown down by Him.
7 (I)The Lord is good,
A stronghold in the day of trouble;
And (J)He knows those who trust in Him.
8 But with an overflowing flood
He will make an utter end of its place,
And darkness will pursue His enemies.
9 (K)What do you [c]conspire against the Lord?
(L)He will make an utter end of it.
Affliction will not rise up a second time.
10 For while tangled (M)like thorns,
(N)And while drunken like drunkards,
(O)They shall be devoured like stubble fully dried.
11 From you comes forth one
Who plots evil against the Lord,
A [d]wicked counselor.
12 Thus says the Lord:
“Though they are [e]safe, and likewise many,
Yet in this manner they will be (P)cut down
When he passes through.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you no more;
13 For now I will break off his yoke from you,
And burst your bonds apart.”
14 The Lord has given a command concerning you:
[f]“Your name shall be perpetuated no longer.
Out of the house of your gods
I will cut off the carved image and the molded image.
I will dig your (Q)grave,
For you are (R)vile.”[g]
15 Behold, on the mountains
The (S)feet of him who brings good tidings,
Who proclaims peace!
O Judah, keep your appointed feasts,
Perform your vows.
For the [h]wicked one shall no more pass through you;
He is (T)utterly cut off.

New International Version
1 A prophecy(A) concerning Nineveh.(B) The book of the vision(C) of Nahum the Elkoshite.
The Lord’s Anger Against Nineveh
2 The Lord is a jealous(D) and avenging God;
the Lord takes vengeance(E) and is filled with wrath.
The Lord takes vengeance on his foes
and vents his wrath against his enemies.(F)
3 The Lord is slow to anger(G) but great in power;
the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished.(H)
His way is in the whirlwind(I) and the storm,(J)
and clouds(K) are the dust of his feet.
4 He rebukes(L) the sea and dries it up;(M)
he makes all the rivers run dry.
Bashan and Carmel(N) wither
and the blossoms of Lebanon fade.
5 The mountains quake(O) before him
and the hills melt away.(P)
The earth trembles(Q) at his presence,
the world and all who live in it.(R)
6 Who can withstand(S) his indignation?
Who can endure(T) his fierce anger?(U)
His wrath is poured out like fire;(V)
the rocks are shattered(W) before him.
7 The Lord is good,(X)
a refuge in times of trouble.(Y)
He cares for(Z) those who trust in him,(AA)
8 but with an overwhelming flood(AB)
he will make an end of Nineveh;
he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness.
9 Whatever they plot(AC) against the Lord
he will bring[a] to an end;
trouble will not come a second time.
10 They will be entangled among thorns(AD)
and drunk(AE) from their wine;
they will be consumed like dry stubble.[b](AF)
11 From you, Nineveh, has one come forth
who plots evil against the Lord
and devises wicked plans.
12 This is what the Lord says:
“Although they have allies and are numerous,
they will be destroyed(AG) and pass away.
Although I have afflicted you, Judah,
I will afflict you no more.(AH)
13 Now I will break their yoke(AI) from your neck
and tear your shackles away.”(AJ)
