The burden of Ninveh. The scroll of the vision of
Nachum the Elkoshite. 3195
2 El is jealous, and vuvh revenges; vuvh revenges, and
is furious; vuvh will take vengeance on His adversaries,
and He reserves wrath for His enemies.
3 vuvh is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not
acquit the wicked: vuvh has His derech in the whirlwind
and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet.
4 He rebukes the sea, and makes it dry, and dries up all
the rivers: Bashan withers, and Carmel too, and the
flower of Levanon withers.
5 The mountains quake at Him, and the hills melt, and
the earth is burned at His presence, yes, the olam, and
all that dwell therein.
6 Who can stand before His indignation? And who can
survive the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured
out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by Him.
7 vuvh is tov, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He
knows those that trust in Him.
8 But with an overrunning flood He will make an utter
end of the place of Ninveh, and darkness shall pursue
His enemies.
9 What do you imagine against vuvh? He will make an
utter end of it:
affliction shall not rise up the second time.
10 For while they are entangled as thorns, and while
they are drunk as drunkards, they shall be devoured as
fully dry stubble.
11 There is one come out of you, that imagines evil
against vuvh, a wicked counselor.
12 This says vuvh: Though they be quiet, and likewise
many, yet they shall be cut down, when he shall pass
away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no
more.
13 For now will I break his yoke from off you, and will
burst your chains asunder. 3196
14 And vuvh has given a commandment concerning you,
that no more of your name be sown: out of the bayit of
your elohim will I cut off the graven image and the
molten image: I will appoint your grave; for you are
vile.
15 Behold upon the mountains the feet of Him that
brings tov tidings, that publishes shalom! O Yahudah,
observe your moadim, perform your vows: for Beliyaal
shall no more pass through you; he is utterly cut
off. 3197
He that dashes in pieces is come up before your
face: guard the roads, watch the derech, make your
loins strong, and fortify your power mightily.
2 For vuvh will restore the excellency of Yaakov, as the
excellency of Yisrael: for the oppressors have trampled
on them, and destroyed their vine branches. 3198
2
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant
men are in scarlet: the mirkavot shall be with flaming
torches in the day of his preparation, and the horsemen
shall be terribly shaken.
4 The mirkavot shall rage in the streets, they shall rush
one another in the broad ways: they shall seem like

flaming torches, they shall run like lightning.
5 He shall remember his nobles: they shall stumble in
their walk; they shall hurry to the wall, and the defense
shall be prepared.
6 The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace
shall be dissolved.
7 And Huzzav the malka shall be led away captive
northward, she shall be brought up, and her female
avadim, beating on their breasts, mourning in their
hearts like doves.
8 But Ninveh of old was like a pool of mayim: but now
flee away. Stop, stop, shall they cry; but none shall look
back.
9 Plunder the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for
there is no limit to the treasure, the wealth of all the
precious objects.
10 She is empty, and void, and wasted: and the heart
melts, and the knees shake together, and much pain is in
all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness in
shame.
11 Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feeding
place of the young lions, where the lion, even the old
lion, walked, and the lion’s cub, and none made them
afraid?
12 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his cubs, and
strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with
prey, and his dens with flesh.
13 Behold, I am against you, says vuvh tzevaoth, and I
will burn her mirkavot in the smoke, and the sword shall
devour your young lions: and I will cut off your prey
from the earth, and the voice of your messengers and
your deeds shall no more be heard.
3
Woe to the bloody city! It is all full of lies and
robbery; the plunder in it cannot be estimated;
2 The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the
wheels, and of the snorting horses, and of the jumping
mirkavot.
3 The horseman lifts up both the bright sword and the
glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a
great number of bodies; and there is no end of their
bodies; they stumble upon their bodies:
4 Because of the multitude of her whoring of the wellfavored
harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that brings
and trains up all nations through her whoring, and
mishpachot through her witchcrafts.
5 Behold, I am against you, says vuvh tzevaoth; and I will
lift up your skirts upon your face, and I will show the
nations your nakedness, and the malchutim your shame.
6 And I will cast abominable filth upon you, and make you
as a fool, and will set you as a spectacle.
7 And it shall come to pass, that all they that look upon you
shall flee from you, and say, Ninveh is laid waste: who will
wail for her? Where shall I seek comforters for you?
8 Are you better than Yawan of Ammon? Which was
situated among the rivers, that had the mayim all around it,
whose rampart was the sea, and her wall was mayim?
9 Ethiopia and Mitzrayim were her strength, and it was
unlimited; Put and Luvim were your helpers.
