< Zephaniah 2 >
1 Aw koeh koi kaom ai acaeng, nawnto amkhueng oh, ue,
Zibuthaniseni, lizibuthanise, lina sizwe esingaloyisekiyo,
2 nangcae loe lok takroekhaih atue pha ai, tavai baktiah takhoekhaih ni to pha ai, nangcae nuiah zit kaom Angraeng palungphuihaih pha ai vop moe, nangcae nuiah Angraeng palungphuihaih ni pha ai naah, nawnto amkhueng oh.
isimiso singakazali, lalolosuku lwedlule njengamakhoba, intukuthelo yolaka lweNkosi ingakalehleli, usuku lolaka lweNkosi lungakalehleli.
3 Long ah kaom tuinom kahoih katawn kaminawk, anih toenghaih pazui kaminawk boih, Angraeng to pakrong oh; toenghaih to pakrong oh loe, tuinom hoihaih to pakrong oh, to tiah nahaeloe Angraeng palungphuihaih niah nangcae anghawkhaih ahmuen to na hnu o khoe doeh om tih.
Dingani iNkosi, lina lonke abamnene bomhlaba, elenze isahlulelo sayo; dingani ukulunga, lidinge ubumnene; mhlawumbe lingafihlwa ngosuku lolaka lweNkosi.
4 Gaza to pahnawt sut ueloe, Ashkelon to tahmat ving tih: athun naah Ashdod to pathok ueloe, Ekron to tangzun hoi nawnto aphong ving tih.
Ngoba iGaza izadelwa, leAshikeloni ibe lunxiwa; bazaxotsha iAshidodi emini enkulu, leEkhironi isitshunwe.
5 Tuipui taengah kaom, Aw Kereth acaengnawk khosak na bing o! Nang loe Angraeng ih lok mah misa ah ang suek boeh: Aw Kanaan, Philistinnawk ih prae, nang to kang phraek han, to naah anghmat kami maeto doeh om mak ai.
Maye kwabakhileyo belizwe lolwandle, isizwe samaKerethi! Ilizwi leNkosi limelene lani. Wena Khanani, lizwe lamaFilisti, ngizakuchitha, kuze kungabi lomhlali.
6 Tuipui taeng ih ahmuen loe, tuutoep kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen hoi tuunawk paunghaih ahmuen ah om tih.
Lelizwe lolwandle lizakuba ngamadlelo alemigodi yamanzi yabelusi, lezibaya zezimvu.
7 To ahmuen loe anghmat kami Judah imthung takoh mah toep o ueloe, to ah tuunawk to pacah o tih: Ashketon ih imthung takohnawk loe duembang ah angsong o tih: angmacae ih Angraeng Sithaw mah nihcae to khenzawn ueloe, nihcae misong ah ohhaih hoiah amlaem o let tih.
Njalo ilizwe lizakuba ngelensali yendlu kaJuda; bazakudla kulo; kusihlwa bazalala ezindlini zeAshikeloni; ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo izabahambela, iphendule ukuthunjwa kwabo.
8 Moab kaminawk kasae thuihaih hoi Ammon kaminawk pacaekthlaekhaih lok to ka thaih boeh, nihcae loe kai ih kaminawk to kasae thuih o moe, nihcae hoi prae angzit kaminawk hanah pazih o.
Ngiyizwile inhlamba kaMowabi, lokuthuka kwamadodana kaAmoni, abahlambaze ngakho abantu bami, bezikhulisa bemelene lomngcele wabo.
9 Kai ka hing pongah, Moab loe Sodom baktih, Ammon kaminawk loe Gomorrah baktiah om tih; nihcae loe soekhring kaom ahmuen, paloi takaehhaih ahmuen hoi taw thungah om o poe tih: kanghmat kai ih kaminawk mah nihcae to tuh o ueloe, kanghmat kai ih kaminawk mah nihcae ih prae to toep o tih, tiah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah thuih.
Ngakho kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, isibili uMowabi uzakuba njengeSodoma, labantwana bakaAmoni njengeGomora, indawo yezimbabazane, lemigodi yetshwayi, lencithakalo kuze kube phakade. Insali yabantu bami izabaphanga, labaseleyo babantu bami badle ilifa labo.
10 Nihcae loe misatuh Angraeng ih kaminawk to kasae thuih o, zit kathok misa ah suek o pongah, nihcae amoekhaih atho ah hae hae hnu o tih.
Lokhu bazakuba lakho endaweni yokuziphakamisa kwabo, ngoba bathuka, bazikhulisa bemelene labantu beNkosi yamabandla.
11 Anih mah long ah kaom sithawnawk boih to tidoeh na ai ah omsak ueloe, Angraeng loe nihcae han zit thok tih: kaminawk boih mah angmacae ohhaih ahmuen hoiah anih to pakoeh o tih.
INkosi izakwesabeka kubo, ngoba izacakisa bonke onkulunkulu bomhlaba; njalo bazakhothama kuyo, ngulowo lalowo esendaweni yakhe, zonke izihlenge zezizwe.
12 Nangcae Ethiopia kaminawk, nangcae doeh ka sumsen hoiah hum o tih.
Lani maEthiyophiya, lizakuba ngababuleweyo ngenkemba yami.
13 Anih ih ban loe aluek bangah phok tahang ueloe, Assyria to amrosak tih, Nineveh vangpui to pongsak sut ueloe, praezaek baktiah omsak tih.
Njalo izakwelula isandla sayo imelene lenyakatho, ichithe iAsiriya, ibeke iNineve ibe lunxiwa, yome njengenkangala.
14 Tuunawk loe a um ah tabok o ueloe, to ah moi congca om o tih: praezaek ih tui tavaa hoi bukbuhnawk loe vangpui ih tung nuiah acuk o tih, nihcae hanghaih lok loe thokbuem hoiah angthai tih; sidar thing hoi sak ih hmuen to khongkha taengah caeh o taak sut tih.
Njalo imihlambi izalala phansi phakathi kwayo, zonke izinyamazana zezizwe; lalo iwunkwe kanye lenhloni kulale ezidukwini zayo; ilizwi lizahlabela ewindini, incithakalo ibe sembundwini; ngoba ezakwembula umsebenzi womsedari.
15 Hae loe kanawm acaeng vangpui ah oh, anih loe a palung thung hoiah, Kaimah boeh ni, kai pacoengah mi doeh om ai boeh, tiah thuih. Anih loe vaihi pongsut boeh moe, moinawk tabokhaih ahmuen ah oh ving boeh! Anih taeng ah caeh kaminawk boih mah pahnui o thuih ueloe, ban takhoek o thui tih.
Lo ngumuzi ojabulayo, obuhlezi ngokuvikeleka, owawusithi enhliziyweni yawo: Yimi, njalo kakho omunye ngaphandle kwami. Yeka ukuba kwawo yincithakalo, indawo yokulala yezinyamazana! Wonke owedlula kiwo uyancifa, anyikinye isandla sakhe.
