Nahum 1

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 The burden of Nineveh. The book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite.	1 Oraculum Nineve. Liber visio nis Nahum Elcesaei.
2 God is a rival, and the Lord is avenging. The Lord is avenging, and one who applies wrath. The Lord is avenging with his enemies, and he becomes angry with his adversaries.	2 Deus aemulator et ulciscens Dominus, ulciscens Dominus et habens furorem, ulciscens Dominus in hostes suos et servans iram inimicis suis.
3 The Lord is patient and great in strength, and those who are not clean, he makes innocent. The Lord is in a tempest, and his way is a whirlwind, and the clouds are dust at his feet.	3 Dominus patiens et magnus fortitudine, nullumque impunitum derelinquet Dominus. In tempestate et turbine via eius, et nubes pulvis pedum eius.
4 He is the one who rebukes the sea, and who dries it up, and who leads all the rivers to the desert. Basan has been weakened, and also Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon has languished.	4 Increpans mare et exsiccans illud et omnia flumina ad desertum deducens. Elanguit Basan et Carmelus, et flos Libani elanguit.
5 The mountains have trembled before him, and the hills have become desolate, and the earth has quaked before his face, both the world and all that dwells in it.	5 Montes commoti sunt ab eo, et colles conturbati; et contremuit terra a facie eius et orbis et omnes habitantes in eo.
6 Who can stand firm before the face of his indignation? And who can continue against the fury of his wrath? His indignation has broken out like a fire, and the rocks have been dissolved before him.	6 Ante faciem indignationis eius quis stabit, et quis resistet in aestu furoris eius? Indignatio eius effusa est ut ignis, et petrae dissolutae sunt ab eo.
7 The Lord is good, and a comforter in the day of tribulation, and he knows those who hope in him.	7 Bonus Dominus, refugium in die tribulationis et sciens sperantes in se
8 And in the flood that passes over, he brings to consummation the end of his place. And darkness shall pursue his adversaries.	8 et in diluvio transeunte; consummationem faciet adversariorum suorum, et inimicos eius persequentur tenebrae.
9 What are you thinking up against the Lord? He will accomplish the consummation. There shall not rise up a double tribulation.	9 Quid cogitatis contra Dominum? Consummationem ipse faciet; non consurget duplex tribulatio.
10 For just as thorns entwine one another, so also, while they are feasting and drinking together, they will be consumed like stubble that is completely dry.	10 Sicut spinae condensae se invicem complectentes et sicut potatores inebriati consumentur quasi stipula omnino arida.
11 Out of you will go forth one who thinks up evil against the Lord, dragging betrayals through his mind.	11 Ex te exivit cogitans contra Dominum malitiam, mente pertractans praevaricationem.
12 Thus says the Lord: If they had been perfect, and many of them so, yet still they would be pruned, and it will cross through them. I have afflicted you, and I shall afflict you no more.	12 Haec dicit Dominus: “ Et si incolumes fuerint et numerosi, sic quoque attondentur et pertransibunt; afflixi te et non affligam te ultra.
13 And now I will shatter his rod from your back, and I will break open your bonds.	13 Et nunc conteram virgam eius de dorso tuo et vincula tua disrumpam ”.
14 And the Lord will place a commandment over you; nothing more from your name will be sown. From the house of your God, I will order destroyed the graven image and the molten image. I will prepare your grave, because you are not honorable.	14 Et praecipiet super te Dominus: “ Non seminabitur ex nomine tuo amplius. De domo dei tui disperdam sculptile et conflatile; ponam sepulcrum tuum, quia inhonoratus es ”.
15 Behold, over the mountains, the feet of the Evangelizer and the Announcer of peace. Judah, celebrate your festivals and keep your vows. For Belial will never again pass through you; he has completely passed away.
