Sefanaia 3
1 Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade da hame nabasu wadela: idafa sogebi, amola ilia fi da ilia fidafa dunu ili banenesisa. Yelusaleme da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu. Hobeale masunu logo hame ba: mu.
Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, the oppressing city!
2 Ilia da Hina Gode Ea sia: hame nabasu amola Ea dawa: ma: ne se iasu hame lalegagui. Ilia da Hina Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale hame dawa: su, amola E ili fidima: ne hame adole ba: su.
She didn’t obey the voice. She didn’t receive correction. She didn’t trust in the LORD. She didn’t draw near to her God.
3 Yelusaleme eagene hawa: hamosu dunu da laione wa: me gogonomobe defele ba: sa. Ea fofada: su dunu da soge wa: me amo da gasa hahabe manusa: ligisimusa: hame dawa: sa, amo defele uasusa.
Her princes within her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing until the next day.
4 Yuda balofede dunu ilia hou da diahamosu amola hohonosu agoane. Gobele salasu dunu da sema liligi amo wadela: lesisa. Ilila: musu fidima: ne, ilia Gode Ea sema ogobele olelesa.
Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.
5 Be Hina Gode da amo moilai bai bagade ga: iwane esala. E da moloidafa hou fawane hamosa amola giadofale hamosu hamedafa dawa: Hahabe huluanedafa, E da moloidafa hou Ea fi dunuma olelesa. Be moloi hame dunu da mae fisili, wadela: i hou hamonana. Amola ilia da amoga hamedafa gogosiasa.
The LORD, within her, is righteous. He will do no wrong. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He doesn’t fail, but the unjust know no shame.
6 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da fifi asi gala bagohame gugunufinisi dagoi. Na da ilia moilai bai bagade mugululi fasi amola ilia gagoi dobea amola diasu gagagula heda: i amo mugululi fasi dagoi. Moilai bai bagade huluane da ma: bui dagoi. Moilai bai bagade logo huluane da lei dagoi, dunu afae esalebe hame ba: sa.
I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.
7 Na da amane hamobeba: le, Na fi dunu ilia da Nama nodonanu, Na dawa: ma: ne se iasu lalegagumu amola Na olelesu hamedafa gogolemu, amo Na da dawa: i galu. Be ilia da amo olelesu mae dawa: le, ilia musa: wadela: i hou hedolowane bu hamosu.”
I said, “Just fear me. Receive correction,” so that her dwelling won’t be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her. But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.
8 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Waha oualigima! Na da wa: legadole, fifi asi gala ilima diliwaneya udidimu. Na da amo ilegei dagoi. Na da fifi asi gala huluane ilia Na gasa bagade ougi hou ba: ma: ne gilisimu. Osobo bagade huluane da Na ougi lalu agoane amoga nei dagoi ba: mu.
“Therefore wait for me”, says the LORD, “until the day that I rise up to the prey, for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
9 Amasea, Na da fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilia hou afadenemu. Amola ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadosu yolesili, Nama fawane sia: ne gadomu. Ilia huluane da Na sia: nabawane hamomu.
For then I will purify the lips of the peoples, that they may all call on the LORD’s name, to serve him shoulder to shoulder.
10 Idioubia soge da badiliadafa amola amoga Na fi mogili da afagogoi. Be amoga Na fi dunu afagogoi da udigili iasu Nama gaguli misunu.
From beyond the rivers of Cush, my worshippers, even the daughter of my dispersed people, will bring my offering.
11 Na fi dunu! Amo esoha, dilia da musa: Nama lelebeba: le, bu hame gogosiamu. Na da nowa dunu da gasa fi amola hidale hamosu amo huluane dilia fi amoga fadegale fasimu. Amasea, dilia da Na sema agologa, Nama bu hamedafa lelemu.
In that day you will not be disappointed for all your doings in which you have transgressed against me; for then I will take away out from amongst you your proudly exulting ones, and you will no more be arrogant in my holy mountain.
12 Na da amogawi, fi amo da asaboi amola bodogi gala hamomu. Ilia Nama Na fidisu lama: ne misunusa: hame higamu.
But I will leave amongst you an afflicted and poor people, and they will take refuge in the LORD’s name.
13 Isala: ili fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe da dunu enoma wadela: le hamedafa hamomu. Ilia da ogogosu hamedafa dawa: mu. Ilia da bagade gaguiwane amola gaga: iwane esalumu. Amola ilia da eno dunuma hamedafa beda: mu. Isala: ili dunu! Hahawaneba: le, gesami hea: ma
The remnant of Israel will not do iniquity nor speak lies, neither will a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth, for they will feed and lie down, and no one will make them afraid.”
14 Hahawane gesami hea: ma amola wema! Yelusaleme fi dilia! Dilia dogoga ha: giwane nodoma!
Sing, daughter of Zion! Shout, Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem.
15 Hina Gode da dilia se iasu dagolesi. E da dilima ha lai dunu huluane sefasi dagoi. Hina Gode, Isala: ili Hina Bagade, E da dili esala. Wali beda: su bai da hame gala.
The LORD has taken away your judgements. He has thrown out your enemy. The King of Israel, the LORD, is amongst you. You will not be afraid of evil any more.
16 Eso da mana amoga ilia da Yelusaleme fi ilima amane sia: mu, “Saione moilai bai bagade fi! Mae beda: ma! Beda: ga lobo mae bodola: le salima!
In that day, it will be said to Jerusalem, “Don’t be afraid, Zion. Don’t let your hands be weak.”
17 Dilia Hina Gode da dili esala. Ea gasa da dilima iba: le, dilia da ha lai dunu ili hasali. Hina Gode da dili hahawane dogolegele ba: mu. E da dilima asigiba: le, gaheabolo esalusu dilima imunu. E da dilima gesami hea: mu, amola dunu da lolo nabe amoga hahawane gala, amo defele E da dilima hahawane ba: mu.”
The LORD, your God, is amongst you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.
18 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da dili wadela: lesimu sia: i amo dagolesi. Na da dilia gogosiasu fadegai dagoi.
I will remove those who grieve about the appointed feasts from you. They are a burden and a reproach to you.
19 Eso da mana! Amoga Na da dilima banenesisu dunu ilima se imunu. Na da emo gasuga: igi dunu huluane gaga: mu. Amola mugululi asi dunu bu oule misunu. Na da ilia gogosiasu bu sinidigili, osobo bagade dunu huluane da ilima nodone sia: mu.
Behold, at that time I will deal with all those who afflict you; and I will save those who are lame and gather those who were driven away. I will give them praise and honour, whose shame has been in all the earth.
20 Eso da mana! Na da dilia afagogoi dunu bu oule misunu. Na da hamobeba: le, osobo bagade dunu huluane dili dawa: digili nodomu. Dilia da hahawane bagade gaguiwane bu ba: mu.” Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi. Sia: ama dagoi
At that time I will bring you in, and at that time I will gather you; for I will give you honour and praise amongst all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes before your eyes, says the LORD.
