Zephaniah 2
1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation that has no shame;
Agkaykaysakayo nga agtitipon ket aguummongkayo, O nasion nga awan babainna—
2 before the decree bring forth, before the day passes as the chaff, before the fierce anger of Jehovah comes upon you, before the day of Jehovah's anger comes upon you.
sakbay a maipatungpal ti bilin, sakbay iti panaglabas ti aldaw a maiyarig iti taep, sakbay a dumteng ti nakaro a pungtot ni Yahweh kadakayo! Sakbay a dumteng ti aldaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh kadakayo!
3 Seek ye Jehovah, all ye meek of the earth who have kept his ordinances. Seek righteousness, seek meekness. It may be ye will be hid in the day of Jehovah's anger.
Birukenyo ni Yahweh, dakayo amin a napakumbaba a tattao iti rabaw ti daga nga agtultulnog kadagiti bilinna! Birukenyo ti kinalinteg! Birukenyo ti kinapakumbaba, ket nalabit a masalaknibankayonto iti aldaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh!
4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation. They shall drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
Ta mabaybay-anto ti Gaza, ken madadaelto ti Askelon! Papanawendanto ti Asdod iti katengngaan ti aldaw, ken parutendanto ti Ekron!
5 Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of Jehovah is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines. I will destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.
Asi pay dagiti agnanaed iti igid ti baybay, ti nasion dagiti taga-Keretim! Nagsao ni Yahweh a maibusor kadakayo, O Canaan, daga dagiti Filisteo! Dadaelenkanto agingga nga awan matda nga agnanaed!
6 And the seacoast shall be pastures, with cottages for shepherds and folds for flocks.
Agbalinto ngarud a pagaraban ti igid ti baybay para kadagiti agpaspastor ken pangiyapunan ti karnero.
7 And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah. They shall feed their flocks upon it. In the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down in the evening. For Jehovah their God will visit them, and bring back their captivity.
Kukuanto dagiti nakalasat iti kaputotan ti Juda ti rehion iti igid ti baybay, a mangipastorto kadagiti arbanda sadiay. Agiddanto dagiti tattaoda iti rabii kadagiti balbalay ti Askelon, ta aywananto ida ni Yahweh a Diosda ken isublina dagiti kinarang-ayda.
8 I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the sons of Ammon, with which they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border.
Nangngegko dagiti panangum-umsi ti Moab ken ti pananglalais dagiti tattao ti Ammon idi inumsida dagiti tattaok ken linabsingda dagiti beddengda.
9 Therefore as I live, says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the sons of Ammon as Gomorrah, a possession of nettles, and salt pits, and a perpetual desolation. The residue of my people shall make a prey of them, and the remnant of my nation shall inherit them.
Ngarud, iti Naganko nga adda iti agnanayon”—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, “Agbalinto ti Moab a kas iti Sodoma, ken dagiti tattao ti Ammon ket kas iti Gomorra; karuruotan a lugar ken pagaramidan ti asin, a langalangto iti agnanayon! Ngem samsamanto ida dagiti matda kadagiti tattaok, ket agtawidto dagiti nabatbati iti nasionko manipud kadagitoy!
10 They shall have this for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of Jehovah of hosts.
Mapasamakto daytoy iti Moab ken Ammon gapu iti kinatangsitda, agsipud ta inumsi ken inuyawda dagiti tattao ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin!
11 Jehovah will be terrible to them, for he will famish all the gods of the earth. And men shall worship him, everyone from his place, even all the isles of the nations.
Ket agbutengdanto kenni Yahweh, gapu ta umsiennanto dagiti amin a didios iti daga. Agdayawdanto amin kenkuana, tunggal maysa iti bukodna a lugar, kadagiti amin nga igid ti baybay!
12 Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword.
Dakayo a Cusita, maduyokkayonto met babaen iti kampilanko, ken
13 And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria, and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like the wilderness.
rautento ti ima ti Dios ti amianan ken dadaelenna ti Asiria, tapno agbalinto a langalang ti Nineve, kas kamaga iti let-ang.
14 And herds shall lie down in the midst of her. All the beasts of the nations, both the pelican and the porcupine shall lodge in the capitals of it. Their voice shall sing in the windows. Desolation shall be in the thresholds. For he has laid bare the cedar work.
Ket agiddanto dagiti arban iti tengnga ti Asiria, amin a narungsot nga ayup kadagiti nasion, ken agumokto dagiti billit ken kullaaw kadagiti tuktok dagiti adigina. Addanto ti agpukkaw kadagiti tawa ken aguninto dagiti uwak kadagiti agdanda, gapu ta imparangna dagiti sorelas a sedro.
15 This is the joyous city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none besides me. How she has become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! Everyone who passes by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.
Daytoy ti nakaragragsak a siudad nga agbibiag nga awan butengna, a kunana iti pusona, “Siak, ken awanen ti kapadak!” Anian a nakaam-amak ti nagbalinanna, nagbalin a maysa a lugar a pagiddaan dagiti narurungsot nga ayup! Tunggal maysa a lumabas iti daytoy ket agsakuntipto ken isiniasna ti imana!
