Sefanaia 2
1 Dilia da hame gogosiasu fi! Dilia asigi dawa: su moloma!
Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation without desire [for repentance];
2 Dilia da gisi a: le fasi defele amo biosa: besa: le, amola Hina Gode Ea gia: i bagade ougi hou dilima doaga: sa: besa: le, dilia asigi dawa: su moloma!
Before the decree is brought forth—like the chaff the day passeth away—before yet there be come over you the fierce anger of the Lord, before yet there be come over you the day of the anger of the Lord.
3 Hina Godema sinidigima! Soge ganodini asaboi dunu amo da Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamosa, dilia Hina Godema sinidigima! Moloidafa hamoma amola Hina Gode ba: ma: ne, dilia hou fofonoboma! Amabela? Dilia da amo esoga, Hina Gode da Ea ougi hou ba: ma: ne olelesea, se nabasu hame ba: mu.
Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, who have fulfilled his ordinances; seek righteousness, seek meekness: perhaps ye will be protected on the day of the Lord's anger.
4 Ga: isa amola A: segelone moilai bai bagade ela ganodini dunu afae esalebe hame ba: mu. Asedode moilai bai bagade dunu da eso afaega esomogoa gadili sefasi dagoi ba: mu. Egelone moilai bai bagade dunu fi da gadili sefasi dagoi ba: mu.
For Gazzah shall become forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolate place: Ashdod shall they drive out at the noon of day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
5 Dilia Filisidini dunu amo da hano wayabo bagade bega: esala! Dilia amola da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Hina Gode da dilima se nabasu imunusa: ilegei dagoi. E da dili huluane wadela: lesili, dilia dunu afae esalebe hame ba: mu.
Woe unto the inhabitants of the district by the sea, the nation of the Kerethites! the word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that no inhabitant shall remain.
6 Dilia soge huluane hano wayabo gadenene da dunu hame esalebe, moifufu sogebi fawane ba: mu. Amogawi sibi ouligisu dunu ilia diasu amola sibi gagoi amo fawane dialebe ba: mu.
And the district by the sea shall become places for pens of shepherds, and folds for flocks.
7 Amola Yuda fi hame bogoi esalebe dunu da misini, dilia soge lale fimu. Ilia sibi amola bulamagau wa: i da amogawi afugisimu. Amola dunu da A: segelone moilai bai bagade diasu ili ganodini golamu. Amola ilia Hina Gode da ili ouligimu, amola ilia da bu hahawane bagade gaguiwane fifi lalumu.
And this district shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; thereupon shall they feed their flocks: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the Lord their God will think of them, and bring back their captivity.
8 Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Moua: be amola A: mone fi dunu da Na fi dunu ilima gadele sia: su, amola ilima dafama: ne sia: su amola ilia soge lama: ne hidale nodone sia: su, Na da nabi dagoi.
I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of 'Ammon, wherewith they have reproached my people, and made themselves great against their border.
9 Na da Isala: ili fi ilia Fifi Ahoanusu Godedafa! Amola Na da dafawanedafa amane ilegele sia: sa. Na da Sodame amola Goumola moilai bai bagade wadela: lesi, amo defele Na da Moua: be amola A: mone wadela: lesimu. Ilia sogega da sali dogosu gelabo bagohame ba: mu amola wadela: lesi dagoiba: le bu hahamomu da hamedei ba: mu. Wadela: i gisi da amo soge dedebomu. Na fi dunu (Isala: ili fi) amo da hame bogoi esalebe, da Moua: be amola A: mone ilia liligi amola ilia soge gegene lamu.”
Therefore as I live, saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall become like Sodom, and the children of 'Ammon like Gomorrah, overgrown with nettles, and [filled with] salt-pits, and a desolation to eternity; the residue of my people shall plunder them, and the remnant of my nation shall possess them.
10 Moua: be amola A: mone fi dunu da gasa fili, Hina Gode Bagadedafa amo Ea fi dunu ilima gadele bagade sia: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da se iasu bagade ba: mu.
This shall they have in recompense for their pride; because they have reproached and made themselves great against the people of the Lord of hosts.
11 Hina Gode da ili bagade beda: ma: ne hamomu. E da osobo bagade ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi huluane dafawane wadela: lesimu. Amasea, fifi asi gala dunu huluanedafa da ilia soge afae afae ganodini, Ema nodone sia: ne gadomu.
Terrible will the Lord [appear] over them; for he will cause to vanish all the gods of the earth; and then shall prostrate themselves before him, every one from its place, all the isles of the nations.
12 Amola Hina Gode da Idioubia fi dunu medole legemu.
Also ye Ethiopians shall be those slain by my sword.
13 Hina Gode da Ea gasaga, amo Asilia soge wadela: lesimu. E da Ninefe moilai bai bagade wadela: lesimu. Amo da dunu hame esalebe, mugului dagoi, hano hamedene hafoga: i soge agoane ba: mu.
And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and he will make Nineveh a desolate place, dry, like the wilderness.
14 Amasea, amoga da bulamagau, sibi wa: i amola ohe fi hisu hisu ilia fawane esalebe ba: mu. Ea mugulubi amo ganodini da baou esalumu. Ilia da diasu logo holei gelabodili gugumuni imunu. Ninefe moilai bai bagade dobea fei dolo ifa da hiougili fasi dagoi ba: mu.
And there shall lie down in the midst of her flocks, all the beasts of the nations; both the pelican and the hedgehog shall lodge in the capitals of her columns; singing-birds shall sing in the windows; ruin shall be on the thresholds; for the cedar wainscoting shall be torn away.
15 Ninefe fi dunu ilisu da gasa bagade amola hahawane gaga: i dagoi ilisu dawa: sa. Ilia moilai bai bagade da osobo bagade moilai bai bagade huluane baligi dagoi ilisu dawa: sa. Be ilia moilai bai bagade da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ea sogebi da dunu hame esalebe hamedei soge agoane ba: mu, amola amo ganodini sigua ohe fi fawane esalebe ba: mu. Dunu huluane da amo sogebi bobaligisia, fofogadigili hagamu.
This is the joyful city that dwelt in security, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none else beside me: how is she become desolate, a resting-place for beasts! every one that passeth by her will hiss, and shake his hand.
