1 ATUNIKA de iwaju rẹ (Ninefe): pa ile-iṣọ mọ, ṣọ ọ̀na na, di àmurè ẹ̀gbẹ rẹ ko le, mura girigiri.

1 He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the munition, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily.

2 Nitori Oluwa tun pada si ọlanla Jakobu, gẹgẹ bi ọlanla Israeli: atunidanù ti tú wọn danù, nwọn si ba ẹka àjara wọn jẹ.

2 For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.

3 A sọ asà awọn ọkunrin alagbara rẹ̀ di pupa, awọn akin wọn wọ̀ odòdó: kẹkẹ́ ogun yio ma kọ bi iná li ọjọ ipèse rẹ̀, igi firi li a o si mì tìti.

3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.

4 Ariwo kẹkẹ́ ni igboro, nwọn o si ma gbún ara wọn ni ọ̀na gbigbòro, nwọn o dabi etùfu, nwọn o kọ́ bi mànamána.

4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.

5 On o ṣe aṣàro awọn ọlọla rẹ̀: nwọn o kọsẹ̀ ni irìn wọn; nwọn o yara si ibi odi rẹ̀, a o si pèse ãbo rẹ̀.

5 He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make hast to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.

6 A o ṣi ilẹ̀kun odò wọnni silẹ, a o si sọ ãfin na di yiyọ́.

6 The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.

7 Eyi ti a ti fi idi rẹ̀ mulẹ li a o si dì ni igbèkun lọ, a o si mu u goke wá, ati awọn iranṣẹbinrin rẹ̀ yio fi ohùn bi ti oriri ṣe amọ̀na rẹ̀, nwọn a ma lù aiya wọn.

7 And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts.

8 Ṣugbọn Ninefe li ọjọ ti o ti wà bi adagun omi: sibẹ̀ nwọn o salọ kuro. Duro, duro! ni nwọn o ma ke; ṣugbọn ẹnikan kì yio wò ẹhìn.

8 But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.

9 Ẹ ko ikogun fàdakà, ẹ ko ikogun wurà! ati iṣura wọn ailopin na, ati ogo kuro ninu gbogbo ohunelò ti a fẹ́.

9 Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture.

10 On ti sòfo, o ti di asan, o si di ahoro: aiyà si yọ́, ẽkún nlù ara wọn, irora pupọ̀ si wà ninu gbogbo ẹgbẹ́, ati oju gbogbo wọn si kó dudu jọ.

10 She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.

11 Nibo ni ibugbé awọn kiniun wà, ati ibujẹ awọn ọmọ kiniun, nibiti kiniun, ani agbà kiniun, ti nrìn, ati ọmọ kiniun, kò si si ẹniti o dẹruba wọn?

11 Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?

12 Kiniun ti fàya pẹrẹpẹrẹ tẹrùn fun awọn ọmọ rẹ̀, o si fun li ọrun pa fun awọn abo kiniun rẹ̀, o si fi ohun ọdẹ kún isà rẹ̀, ati ihò rẹ̀ fun onjẹ agbara.

12 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin.

13 Kiyesi i, emi dojukọ ọ, ni Oluwa awọn ọmọ ogun wi, emi o si fi kẹkẹ́ rẹ̀ wọnni joná ninu ẹ̃fin, idà yio si jẹ ọmọ kiniun rẹ wọnni run: emi o si ke ohun ọdẹ rẹ kuro lori ilẹ aiye, ohùn awọn ojiṣẹ rẹ li a kì yio si tún gbọ́ mọ.

13 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
