Zephaniah 3
1 Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, to the oppressing city!
Asi pay ti managsukir a siudad! Natulawanen ti naranggas a siudad!
2 She obeyed not the voice. She received not correction. She trusted not in Jehovah. She did not draw near to her God.
Saan daytoy a dimngeg iti timek ti Dios, wenno saan nga immawat iti pannursuro manipud kenni Yahweh! Saan isuna nga agtalek kenni Yahweh ken saan nga umasideg iti Diosna.
3 Her rulers in the midst of her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing till the morrow.
Dagiti prinsipena ket kasla ngumerngernger a leon iti nagtengngaanna! Dagiti ukomna ket kasla kadagiti lobo iti rabii a saan a mangitedda iti kanenda iti agsapa!
4 Her prophets are airy and treacherous men. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.
Dagiti profetana ket nadursok ken manangliput a lallaki! Rinugitan dagiti padina ti nasantoan ken nagaramid iti panaglabsing iti linteg!
5 Jehovah in the midst of her is righteous. He will not do iniquity. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He does not fail, but the unjust man knows no shame.
Nalinteg ni Yahweh iti nagtengngaanna! Dinto agaramid iti biddut! Iti tunggal bigat, ipaayna ti husticia! Saanto nga mailemmeng iti lawag, ngem ti managdakdakes ket dina ammo ti agbain!
6 I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that none passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.
“Dinadaelko dagiti nasion; nadadael dagiti sarikedkedda. Dinadaelko dagiti kalsadada tapno awan a pulos iti makalabas kadagitoy. Nadadael dagiti siudadda ket awan ti tao a makapagnaed kadagitoy.
7 I said, Only fear thou me. Receive correction, so her dwelling shall not be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her. But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.
Kinunak, ‘Sigurado nga agbutengkanto kaniak! Umawatka iti pannakaisuro ket saanka a mapapanaw kadagiti pagtaengam iti amin a pinanggepko nga aramiden kenka!' Ngem aggagarda a mangirugi iti tunggal agsapa babaen iti panangpadakesda kadagiti amin nga aramidda.
8 Therefore wait ye for me, says Jehovah, 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 upon them my indignation, even all my fierce anger. For all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
Ngarud, urayendak”—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— “agingga iti aldaw a tumakderak nga agsamsam! Ta ti pangngedengko ket urnongek dagiti nasion, ummongek dagiti pagarian, ken tapno idissuorko kadakuada ti ungetko, ti narungsot a pungtotko, tapno maikisap amin ti daga babaen iti apuy ti ungetko.
9 For then I will turn to the peoples of a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of Jehovah, to serve him with one consent.
Ngem urayno kasta, ikkakto iti nadalus a pagsasao dagiti tattao, tapno umawagda amin iti nagan ni Yahweh, tapno agserbida kaniak nga addaan iti panagkaykaysa.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring my offering.
Manipud iti labes ti karayan ti Etiopia a mangidaydayaw kaniak—dagiti naiwara-wara a tattaok—mangyegto kadagiti daton a para kaniak.
11 In that day thou shall not be put to shame for all thy doings, in which thou have transgressed against me. For then I will take away out of the midst of thee those who rejoice in thy pride, and thou shall no more be haughty in my holy mountain.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, saankayonto a maibabain gapu kadagiti amin nga aramidyo a maibusor kaniak, agsipud ta iti dayta a tiempo, ikkatekto kadakayo dagiti nangramrambak iti kinatangsityo, ken gapu ta saankayontno nga agtignay a sipapalangguad iti tapaw ti nasantoan a bantayko.
12 But I will leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall take refuge in the name of Jehovah.
Ngem ibatikayo a kas nanumo ken napanglaw a tattao, ket agkamangkayonto iti nagan ni Yahweh.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies, nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth. For they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Saanton nga aglabsing wenno agulbod dagiti nabatbati iti Israel, ken awan ti manangallilaw a dila iti masarakanto kadagiti ngiwatda; isu nga agarab ken agiddada, ken awanto iti pagbutbutnganda.”
14 Sing, O daughter of Zion. Shout, O Israel. Be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
Agkantaka, O anak a babbai ti Sion! Agdir-ika, O Israel! Agrag-o ken agragsakka iti amin a pusom, O anak a babai ti Jerusalem!
15 Jehovah has taken away thy judgments. He has cast out thine enemy. The King of Israel, even Jehovah, is in the midst of thee. Thou shall not fear evil any more.
Inikkaten ni Yahweh ti dusam; pinapanawnan dagiti kabusormo! Ni Yahweh ti ari ti Israel nga adda kadagiti nagtengngaanyo. Saanmonto manen a kabuteng ti dakes!
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not, O Zion. Let not thy hands be slack.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, kunaendanto iti Jerusalem, “Saanka nga agbuteng, O Sion. Saanmo nga itulok a kumapuy dagiti imam.
17 Jehovah thy God is in the midst of thee, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over thee with joy. He will rest in his love. He will joy over thee with singing.
Ni Yahweh a Diosyo ket adda kadakayo, ti mannakabalin a mangisalakan kadakayo. Agrambakto isuna gapu kadakayo ken paginanaennakayonto iti ayatna nga addaan rag-o; Maragsakanto isuna kadakayo ket agpukkawto isuna iti rag-o.
18 I will gather those who sorrow for the solemn assembly, who were of thee, to whom the burden upon her was a reproach.
Dagiti nagladingit gapu iti naituding a fiesta—inummongko ida manipud kadakayo, nagbalinda a dadagsen ken nakaigapuan ti pannakaibabainyo.
19 Behold, at that time I will deal with all those who afflict thee. And I will save that which is lame, and gather that which was driven away, and I will make them a praise and a name, whose shame has been in all the earth.
Adtoy, iti dayta a tiempo, dusaekto dagiti amin a nangparparigat kadakayo. Ispalekto dagiti pilay ken ummongekto dagiti napatalaw. Ikkatekto ti nakaibabainanda ket pagbalinekto ida a nadayaw ken natan-ok iti entero a daga.
20 At that time I will bring you in, and at that time I will gather you. For I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth when I bring back your captivity before your eyes, says Jehovah.
Iti dayta a tiempo, idauloan ken pagmaymaysaenkayonto. Raemen ken idayawdakayonto dagiti amin a nasion iti daga, inton makitayo nga insublik ti kinarang-ayyo,” kuna ni Yahweh.
