Nahúm 2 Septuaginta de Brenton actualizada

21 Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that brings glad tidings, and publishes peace! O Judah, keep thy feasts, pay thy vows: for they shall no more pass through thee to [thy] decay. 2 It is all over with him, he has been removed, [one] who has been delivered from affliction has come up panting into thy presence, watch the way, strengthen [thy] loins, be very valiant in [thy] strength. 3 For the Lord has turned aside the pride of Jacob, as the pride of Israel: for they have utterly rejected them, and have destroyed their branches. 4 [They have destroyed] the arms of their power from among men, their mighty men sporting with fire: the reins of their chariots [shall be destroyed] in the day of his preparation, and the horsemen shall be thrown into confusion 5 in the ways, and the chariots shall clash together, and shall be entangled in each other in the broad ways: their appearance is as lamps of fire, and as gleaming lightnings. 6 And their mighty men shall bethink themselves and flee by day; and they shall be weak as they go; and they shall hasten to her walls, and shall prepare their defenses. 7 The gates of the cities have been opened, and the palaces have fallen into ruin, 8 and the foundation has been exposed; and she has gone up, and her maidservants were led [away] as doves moaning in their hearts. 9 And [as for] Nineveh, her waters [shall be] as a pool of water: and they fled, and stayed not, and there was none to look back. 10 They plundered the silver, they plundered the gold, and there was no end of their adorning; they were loaded [with it] upon all their pleasant vessels. 11 [There is] thrusting forth, and shaking, and tumult, and heartbreaking, and loosing of knees, and pangs on all loins; and the faces of all [are] as the blackening of a pot. 12 Where is the dwelling place of the lions, and the pasture that belonged to the whelps? where did the lion go, that the lion’s whelp should enter in there, and there was none to scare [him] away? 13 The lion seized enough prey for his whelps, and strangled for his [young] lions, and filled his lair with prey, and his dwelling place with spoil. 14 Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord Almighty, and I will burn up thy multitude in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy lions; and I will utterly destroy thy prey from off the land, and thy deeds shall no more at all be heard of.
