Nahum 1
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)

有關尼尼微的預言
1 以下是對尼尼微的宣判，就是伊勒歌斯人那鴻的異象錄。
嫉惡和施行報復的 神
2 耶和華是嫉惡和施行報復的 神；
耶和華施行報復，並且滿懷烈怒；
耶和華向他的對頭施行報復，
向他的仇敵懷怒。
3 耶和華不輕易發怒，可是大有能力；
他絕不以有罪的為無罪。
耶和華乘著狂風暴雨而來，
雲彩是他腳下的塵土。
4 他一斥責海，海就乾了；
他使一切江河枯乾。
巴珊和迦密的樹林枯槁，
黎巴嫩的花卉凋殘。
5 大山在他面前震動，
小山也都融化；
大地在他面前廢去，
世界和所有住在世上的，也都這樣。
6 在他盛怒之下，誰能站得住呢？
他的烈怒誰能受得了呢？
他的忿怒像火一般噴出來，
磐石在他面前都崩裂了。
7 耶和華是良善的；
在患難的時候，他作人的避難所；
信靠他的人，他都認識。
8 但他必用氾濫的洪水，
盡行毀滅尼尼微之地，
把他的仇敵趕入黑暗之中。
警告尼尼微
9 尼尼微人哪，
你們對耶和華還有甚麼企圖？
他必盡行毀滅；
患難必不再次來臨。
10 他們像纏結著的荊棘，
像喝醉了的酒徒，
又像枯乾的禾稭，全都被吞滅了。
11 有人從你那裡出來，
就是籌劃奸惡的人，
圖謀惡事攻擊耶和華。
安慰猶大
12 耶和華這樣說：
尼尼微人雖然裝備完整，
人數眾多，
他們仍必被剪除，
這樣就完了。
我既然使你受過苦，
就一定不再叫你受苦了。
13 猶大啊！
現在我必粉碎他在你身上的軛，
打斷你的鎖鍊。
14 尼尼微啊！
耶和華已經向你下了命令：
你的名字必不再傳於後世；
我必從你的神廟中，
除掉雕刻和鑄造的偶像；
我必為你預備墳墓，
因為你沒有存在的價值。
15 看哪！那傳報佳音、宣告和平之人的腳，
已經站在山上，說：
猶大啊！守你的節期，
還你的願吧！
因為那奸惡的人永不會再從你中間經過；
他已被徹底除滅了。（本節在《馬索拉文本》為2:1）

Nachum 1
Orthodox Jewish Bible
1 The burden concerning Nineveh. The sefer chazon (book of the vision) of Nachum of Elkosh.
2 A jealous G-d and taking vengeance is Hashem; an avenger is Hashem, Ba’al Chemah (L-rd of Wrathful Fury); Hashem will take vengeance on His adversaries, and He reserveth wrath for His enemies.
3 Hashem is slow to anger, and great in ko’ach, and will not at all leave the guilty unpunished; Hashem hath His way in the whirlwind and in the tempest, and the anan (clouds) are the dust of His feet.
4 Hashem rebuketh the yam, and drieth it up, and maketh all the neharot (rivers) run dry; Bashan languisheth, and Carmel, and the flower of the Levanon fadeth.
5 The mountains quake before Hashem, and the hills melt away, and ha’aretz heaveth at His presence, yea, tevel (the world), and all that dwell therein.
6 Who can stand before Hashem’s fury? And who can endure His charon af (burning anger, see Ro 1:18)? His chemah (wrath) is poured out like eish (fire) and the tzurim (rocks) are rent in pieces before Him.
7 Hashem is tov, a maoz (stronghold) in the Yom Tzarah; and Hashem knoweth them that take refuge in Him.
8 But with an overwhelming flood He will make an utter end of her [Nineveh’s] site, and Hashem shall pursue His enemies into choshech.
9 Whatever plot ye against Hashem, Hashem will make an utter end of anyone doing it; tzarah (affliction) will not arise a second time.
10 For while they be twisted together as sirim (thorns), and while they are drunken as drunkards, they shall be devoured as stubble fully dry.
11 There is one come out of thee [see 1:1], that imagineth evil against Hashem, a yo’etz Beliya’al (a counselor of Beliya’al [i.e., Sennacherib]).
12 Thus saith Hashem: Though they are strong, and likewise rabbim, yet shall they thus be cut down, and he [the Assyrian] shall pass away. Though I have afflicted thee [O Yehudah], I will afflict thee no more.
13 For now will I break his motah (yoke) from off thee, and will break thy fetters in pieces.
14 And Hashem hath given a command concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sown [i.e., to perpetuate his name]; out of the bais of thy g-ds will I cut off the pesel (graven image) and the molten image; I prepare thy kever (grave); for thou art vile.
15 (2:1) Hinei, upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth Besorah (Good News), that publisheth Shalom! O Yehudah, keep thy chagim, fulfill thy nedarim; for the Beliya’al shall no more pass through thee; he is utterly cut off.
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.
