Sefanaia 2
1 Dilia da hame gogosiasu fi! Dilia asigi dawa: su moloma!
Be ashamed within yourselves, be ashamed,
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 you become as the drifting chaff, before the anger of the Lord comes upon you, before the day of the Lord’s wrath comes upon you.
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 the Lord all you meek of the earth, you who obey his law; Seek righteousness, seek meekness; perhaps you may be hidden in the day of the Lord’s wrath.
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 Gaza will be forsaken; Ashkelon a desolation; Ashdod – by noon will they rout her and Ekron be torn 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 to those who live by the sea coast, people of the Cherethites! The word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines! I will destroy you so that you will be without inhabitants,
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 you will become shepherds’ cots 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.
The sea coast will belong to the survivors of the house of Judah. They will pasture their flocks there. In the house of Ashkelon they will lie down at evening. The Lord their God will be with them and restore their fortunes.
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 taunts of Moab, and the revilings of the Ammonites, how they have taunted my people, and spoken boastfully concerning 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, says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Moab will be like Sodom, and the Ammonites like Gomorrah, a pile of nettles and saltpits, and a desolation, forever. The residue of my people will plunder them, and the survivors of my nation will inherit 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 will they have for their pride, because they have taunted and spoken boastfully 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.
The Lord will terrify them; he will reduce all the gods of the earth; then all the peoples of the nations will worship him, each in their own land.
12 Amola Hina Gode da Idioubia fi dunu medole legemu.
You, also, Ethiopians, slain by his sword are you!
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 desolation, dry as 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.
Herds will lie down in it, every beast of the earth, Desert owl and screech owl will lodge in its capitals. The owl will hoot in the window, the raven on the doorstep, all stripped bare of cedar.
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 exultant city which sat secure. The city who said to herself, I am and there is none else! How has she become a desolation! A lair of beasts! Every passerby hisses at her, shakes their hand.
