صَفَنْيَا 1
| كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى صَفَنْيَا بْنِ كُوشِي بْنِ جَدَلْيَا بْنِ أَمَرِيَا بْنِ حَزَقِيَّا، فِي أَيَّامِ يُوشِيَّا بْنِ آمُونَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: | ١ 1 |
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. This is the word of the LORD that came to Zephaniah son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah:
| «نَزْعًا أَنْزَعُ ٱلْكُلَّ عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٢ 2 |
“I will completely sweep away everything from the face of the earth,”
| أَنْزِعُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ. أَنْزِعُ طُيُورَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَسَمَكَ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَٱلْمَعَاثِرَ مَعَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَأَقْطَعُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣ 3 |
“I will sweep away man and beast; I will sweep away the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, and the idols with their wicked worshipers. I will cut off mankind from the face of the earth,”
| «وَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَعَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَقْطَعُ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ بَقِيَّةَ ٱلْبَعْلِ، ٱسْمَ ٱلْكَمَارِيمِ، مَعَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ. | ٤ 4 |
“I will stretch out My hand against Judah and against all who dwell in Jerusalem. I will cut off from this place every remnant of Baal, the names of the idolatrous and pagan priests—
| وَٱلسَّاجِدِينَ عَلَى ٱلسُّطُوحِ لِجُنْدِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَٱلسَّاجِدِينَ ٱلْحَالِفِينَ بِٱلرَّبِّ، وَٱلْحَالِفِينَ بِمَلْكُومَ، | ٥ 5 |
those who bow on the rooftops to worship the host of heaven, those who bow down and swear by the LORD but also swear by Milcom,
| وَٱلْمُرْتَدِّينَ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ وَلَا سَأَلُوا عَنْهُ. | ٦ 6 |
and those who turn back from following the LORD, neither seeking the LORD nor inquiring of Him.”
| «اُسْكُتْ قُدَّامَ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَرِيبٌ. لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَعَدَّ ذَبِيحَةً. قَدَّسَ مَدْعُوِّيهِ. | ٧ 7 |
Be silent in the presence of the Lord GOD, for the Day of the LORD is near. Indeed, the LORD has prepared a sacrifice; He has consecrated His guests.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي يَوْمِ ذَبِيحَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنِّي أُعَاقِبُ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءَ وَبَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ وَجَمِيعَ ٱلّلَابِسِينَ لِبَاسًا غَرِيبًا. | ٨ 8 |
“On the Day of the LORD’s sacrifice I will punish the princes, the sons of the king, and all who are dressed in foreign apparel.
| وَفِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أُعَاقِبُ كُلَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقْفِزُونَ مِنْ فَوْقِ ٱلْعَتَبَةِ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَمْلَأُونَ بَيْتَ سَيِّدِهِمْ ظُلْمًا وَغِشًّا. | ٩ 9 |
On that day I will punish all who leap over the threshold, who fill the house of their master with violence and deceit.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، صَوْتُ صُرَاخٍ مِنْ بَابِ ٱلسَّمَكِ، وَوَلْوَلَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْقِسْمِ ٱلثَّانِي وَكَسْرٌ عَظِيمٌ مِنَ ٱلْآكَامِ. | ١٠ 10 |
On that day,” declares the LORD, “a cry will go up from the Fish Gate, a wail from the Second District, and a loud crashing from the hills.
| وَلْوِلُوا يَا سُكَّانَ مَكْتِيشَ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ شَعْبِ كَنْعَانَ بَادَ. ٱنْقَطَعَ كُلُّ ٱلْحَامِلِينَ ٱلْفِضَّةَ. | ١١ 11 |
Wail, O dwellers of the Hollow, for all your merchants will be silenced; all who weigh out silver will be cut off.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ أَنِّي أُفَتِّشُ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِٱلسُّرُجِ، وَأُعَاقِبُ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلْجَامِدِينَ عَلَى دُرْدِيِّهِمِ، ٱلْقَائِلِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ: إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَا يُحْسِنُ وَلَا يُسِيءُ. | ١٢ 12 |
And at that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish the men settled in complacency, who say to themselves, ‘The LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.’
| فَتَكُونُ ثَرْوَتُهُمْ غَنِيمَةً وَبُيُوتُهُمْ خَرَابًا، وَيَبْنُونَ بُيُوتًا وَلَا يَسْكُنُونَهَا، وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا وَلَا يَشْرَبُونَ خَمْرَهَا. | ١٣ 13 |
Their wealth will be plundered and their houses laid waste. They will build houses but not inhabit them, and plant vineyards but never drink their wine.
| «قَرِيبٌ يَوْمُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْعَظِيمِ. قَرِيبٌ وَسَرِيعٌ جِدًّا. صَوْتُ يَوْمِ ٱلرّبِّ. يَصْرُخُ حِينَئِذٍ ٱلْجَبَّارُ مُرًّا. | ١٤ 14 |
The great Day of the LORD is near— near and coming quickly. Listen, the Day of the LORD! Then the cry of the mighty will be bitter.
| ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ سَخَطٍ، يَوْمُ ضِيقٍ وَشِدَّةٍ، يَوْمُ خَرَابٍ وَدَمَارٍ، يَوْمُ ظَلَامٍ وَقَتَامٍ، يَوْمُ سَحَابٍ وَضَبَابٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
That day will be a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of destruction and desolation, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness,
| يَوْمُ بُوقٍ وَهُتَافٍ علَى ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةِ وَعَلَى ٱلشُّرُفِ ٱلرَّفِيعَةِ. | ١٦ 16 |
a day of horn blast and battle cry against the fortified cities, and against the high corner towers.
| وَأُضَايِقُ ٱلنَّاسَ فَيَمْشُونَ كَٱلْعُمْيِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ أَخْطَأُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، فَيُسْفَحُ دَمُهُمْ كَٱلتُّرَابِ وَلَحْمُهُمْ كَٱلْجِلَّةِ. | ١٧ 17 |
I will bring such distress on mankind that they will walk like the blind, because they have sinned against the LORD. Their blood will be poured out like dust and their flesh like dung.
| لَا فِضَّتُهُمْ وَلَا ذَهَبُهُمْ يَسْتَطِيعُ إِنْقَاذَهُمْ في يَوْمِ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بَلْ بِنَارِ غَيْرَتِهِ تُؤْكَلُ ٱلْأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا، لِأَنَّهُ يَصْنَعُ فَنَاءً بَاغِتًا لِكُلِّ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ١٨ 18 |
Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them on the Day of the LORD’s wrath. The whole earth will be consumed by the fire of His jealousy.” For indeed, He will make a sudden end of all who dwell on the earth.
