Zefania 1
1 Ma e wach mar Jehova Nyasaye mane obiro ne Zefania wuod Kushi, ma wuod Gedalia, ma wuod Amaria, ma wuod Hezekia e kinde loch Josia wuod Amon ruodh Juda.
Ilizwi leNkosi elafika kuZefaniya, indodana kaKushi, indodana kaGedaliya, indodana kaAmariya, indodana kaHezekhiya, ezinsukwini zikaJosiya, indodana kaAmoni, inkosi yakoJuda.
2 “Abiro tieko gik moko duto mantie e piny mi lal nono,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Ngizaqeda lokuqeda konke kusuke ebusweni bomhlaba, itsho iNkosi.
3 “Abiro tieko dhano kaachiel gi le, bende abiro tieko winy mafuyo e kor polo, kaachiel gi rech manie nam. Jomaricho biro pie pidhe pidhe, e ndalo manatiek dhano e wangʼ piny,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
Ngizaqeda umuntu lenyamazana, ngiqede izinyoni zamazulu, lezinhlanzi zolwandle, lezikhubekiso kanye lababi, ngiqume umuntu asuke ebusweni bomhlaba, itsho iNkosi.
4 “Abiro kumo jo-Juda kaachiel gi ji duto modak Jerusalem. Abiro tieko jo-Baal duto mane odongʼ ka, mi agol oko nying joma luwo nyiseche mopa kaachiel gi jodologi.
Futhi ngizakwelulela isandla sami phezu kukaJuda, laphezu kwabo bonke abahlali beJerusalema, ngiqume insali kaBhali isuke kulindawo, ibizo lamaKhemarimi kanye labapristi;
5 Bende abiro tieko ji duto makulore ewi tat udi kalamo chiengʼ, dwe gi sulwe. Ji duto makulore ka kwongʼore gi nying Jehova Nyasaye, to bangʼe gikwongʼore gi nying Molek nyasach jo-Amon.
lalabo abakhonza ibutho lamazulu phezu kwezimpahla zezindlu; lalabo abakhonza bafunge ngeNkosi, njalo bafunge ngoMalikamu,
6 Ji duto moseweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ok gimany Jehova Nyasaye kata mana penje wach.”
lababuyela emuva ekuyilandeleni iNkosi, labangayidinganga iNkosi, bengayibuzanga.
7 Lingʼuru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto; nikech odiechiengʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye chiegni. Jehova Nyasaye oseloso misango, kendo osepwodho joma oseluongo.
Thula ebukhoneni beNkosi uJehova; ngoba usuku lweNkosi luseduze; ngoba iNkosi ilungisile umhlatshelo, yangcwelisa abanxusiweyo bayo.
8 “E odiechiengʼ mitimoe misango mar Jehova Nyasaye abiro kumo joka ruoth, yawuot ruoth, kaachiel gi ji duto morwakore gi lewni mag jopinje mamoko.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngosuku lomhlatshelo weNkosi ngijezise iziphathamandla, lamadodana enkosi, labo bonke abagqoke izigqoko zabezizwe.
9 Chiengʼno, anakum ji duto mamiel e laru mar dino cham, kendo mapongʼo hekalu mar nyiseche manono gi timbe mahundu kod wuond.”
Langalolosuku ngizajezisa bonke abeqa phezu kombundu, abagcwalisa indlu yamakhosi abo ngodlakela langenkohliso.
10 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Chiengʼno, ywak noywagre koa e rangach miluongo ni Dhoranga Rech, nduru noa e bath dala koma nyien, kendo koko nogore matek koa e gode.
Langalolosuku, itsho iNkosi, kuzakuba lelizwi lokukhala livela esangweni lenhlanzi, lokuqhinqa isililo kuvela kwelesibili, lokufohloza okukhulu kuvela emaqaqeni.
11 Gouru nduru un joma odak e mier moluoro chiro, johala mau madongo duto ibiro yweyo oko, kendo ji duto maloko ohand pesa notiek pep.
Qhinqani isililo, lina bahlali beMaketeshi, ngoba bonke abantu abathengisayo baqunyelwe phansi; bonke abathwala isiliva baqunyiwe.
12 E ndalono abiro menyo Jerusalem gi teche ka akumo joma odak kanyo madhi nyime gi timo timbe maricho, ma gin joma chalo mana gi divai mawach; ka giparo ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye ok notim gimoro amora maber kata marach.’
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalesosikhathi ngihlole iJerusalema ngezibane, ngijezise amadoda ajiyileyo ezinzeceni zawo, athi enhliziyweni yawo: INkosi kayiyikwenza okuhle, futhi kayiyikwenza okubi.
13 Mwandugi noyaki kendo utegi nomuki. Gibiro gero udi, to ok ginidagie, bende gibiro pitho puothe mzabibu to ok gini madh divai moa kuomgi.”
Ngakho inotho yabo izakuba yimpango, lezindlu zabo zibe lunxiwa. Futhi bazakwakha izindlu, kodwa bangahlali kuzo; njalo bazahlanyela izivini, kodwa banganathi iwayini lazo.
14 “Odiechiengʼ maduongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye chiegni, adier ochiegni kendo obiro piyo. Chik iti! Ywagruok e odiechieng Jehova Nyasaye nobed malit, kendo jolweny bende nogo koko kanyo.
Usuku olukhulu lweNkosi luseduze, luseduze, luyaphangisa kakhulu; ilizwi losuku lweNkosi; iqhawe lizakhala khona kabuhlungu.
15 Odiechiengʼno nobed odiechieng mirima, enobed odiechieng mwodo lak kod rem malit, bende enobed odiechieng chandruok gi kethruok, enobed odiechiengʼ mopongʼ gi boche polo moimore, kendo odiechiengʼ mopongʼ gi rumbi kod mudho.
Lolosuku lusuku lolaka, usuku lokuhlupheka losizi, usuku lwencithakalo lokuchitheka, usuku lomnyama lobumnyama, usuku lwamayezi lobumnyama obunzima,
16 To bende enobed odiechieng turumbete kod sigich mar lweny nowinjre e mier madongo mochiel motegno, kod ute mabeyo mag rito dala.
usuku lophondo lolomkhosi omelene lemizi ebiyelwe ngemithangala, lolumelene lezingonsi eziphakemeyo.
17 “Abiro kelo luoro kod achiedh-nade kuom oganda kendo gibiro wuotho mana ka muofni, nikech gisetimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. Rembgi nochwer piny kendo nyimbiye igi nopukre oko ka ngʼwe.
Njalo ngizabacindezela abantu, ukuze bahambe njengeziphofu, ngoba bonile eNkosini; legazi labo lizathululwa njengothuli, lenyama yabo njengobulongwe.
18 To kata mana fedha mathoth kod dhahabu ma gin-go ok noresgi, odiechiengʼ mar mirimb Jehova Nyasaye. Chiengʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye ngʼadoe bura, nyiego mager ma en-go nowangʼ piny duto, mitiek pep.” Kamano e kaka notiek gik moko duto modak e piny mana kadiemo wangʼ.
Lesiliva sabo legolide labo kakuyikuba lakho ukubakhulula ngosuku lolaka lweNkosi; kodwa ilizwe lonke lizaqedwa ngumlilo wobukhwele bayo; ngoba izaqeda, ngitsho ngesiphangiphangi, ngabo bonke abahlali belizwe.
