< Zephaniah 1 >
1 The word of Jehovah which came to Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
Kastoy ti sao ni Yahweh a dimteng kenni Sofonias, a putot a lalaki ni Cusi, a putot ni Gedalias, a putot ni Amanias, a putot ni Hesekias, kadagiti aldaw a ni Josias nga anak ni Amon ti ari ti Juda.
2 I will utterly consume all things from off the face of the ground, says Jehovah.
Kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— “Dadaelekto dagiti amin a banbanag iti rabaw ti daga!
3 I will consume man and beast. I will consume the birds of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling blocks with the wicked. And I will cut off man from off the face of the ground, says Jehovah.
Dadaelekto ti tao ken dagiti narungsot nga ayup; dadaelekto dagiti billit iti tangatang ken dagiti lames iti baybay, dagiti dadael a karaman dagiti nadangkes! Ta pukawekto ti tao iti rabaw ti daga!” —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
4 And I will stretch out my hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarim with the priests,
Iyunnatkonto ti imak iti Juda ken dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti Jerusalem. Pukawekto ti tunggal nabatbati nga agdaydayaw kenni Baal iti daytoy a lugar ken dagiti nagnagan dagiti agdaydayaw kadagiti didiosen kadagiti papadi,
5 and those who worship the host of heaven upon the housetops, and those who worship, who swear to Jehovah and swear by Malcam,
dagiti tattao nga adda iti tuktok dagiti balbalay nga agdaydayaw iti init, bulan ken bituen, ken dagiti tattao nga agdaydayaw ken agsapata kenni Yahweh ngem agsapatada met kenni Milcom.
6 and those who are turned back from following Jehovah, and those who have not sought Jehovah, nor inquired after him.
Pukawekto met dagiti saanen a simmurot kenni Yahweh, uray dagiti saan a mangbirok kenni Yahweh wenno agkiddaw iti panangidalanna.”
7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the lord Jehovah, for the day of Jehovah is at hand. For Jehovah has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
Agulimekkayo iti presensia ti Apo a Yahweh, ta asidegen ti aldaw ni Yahweh; gapu ta insaganan ni Yahweh ti sakripisio ken indatonnan dagiti sangailina.
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of Jehovah's sacrifice, that I will punish the rulers, and the king's sons, and all such as are clothed with foreign apparel.
“Mapasamakto iti aldaw ti panangidaton ni Yahweh, a dusaekto dagiti prinsipe ken dagiti annak dagiti ari, ken dagiti amin a nakakawes iti ganggannaet a pagan-anay.
9 And in that day I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, who fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
Iti dayta nga aldaw dusaekto dagiti amin a sumrek iti ruangan, dagiti mangpunno iti kinaranggas ken panangallilaw iti balay iti amoda!
10 And in that day, says Jehovah, there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and a wailing from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills.
Isu a mapasamakto iti dayta nga aldaw”— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh —“nga aggapunto iti Ruangan ti Lames ti sangit ti kinarigat, ti dung-aw manipud iti Maikaddua a Distrito, ken ti napigsa unay a daranudor manipud kadagiti turod.
11 Wail, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the people of Canaan are undone. All those who were laden with silver are cut off.
Agdung-awkayo, dakayo nga agnanaed iti Distrito ti Pagtagilakoan, ta madadaelto amin dagiti aglaklako; mapapatayto amin dagiti agtitimbang kadagiti pirak.
12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and I will punish the men who are settled on their lees, who say in their heart, Jehovah will not do good, nor will he do evil.
Dumtengto iti dayta a tiempo a sukimatekto ti Jerusalem babaen kadagiti pagsilawan ken dusaek dagiti tattao a mangipagarup a natalgedda ket kunaenda iti pusoda, 'Awanto ti aniaman nga aramiden ni Yahweh, naimbag man wenno dakes!'
13 And their wealth shall become a spoil, and their houses a desolation. Yea, they shall build houses, but shall not inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, but shall not drink the wine of it.
Masamsamto dagiti kinabaknangda ken mabaybay-anto a madadael dagiti balbalayda. Agpatakderdanto kadagiti babalay ngem saanda nga agnaed kadagitoy, ken agmulada kadagiti kaubasan ngem saanda nga uminom iti arakda!
14 The great day of Jehovah is near. It is near and hastens greatly, the voice of the day of Jehovah. The mighty man cries there bitterly.
Asidegen ti naindaklan nga aldaw ni Yahweh, asidegen ken napardas unay! Agbalinto a nasaem a panagsangsangit ti maysa a mannakigubat ti uni iti aldaw ni Yahweh!
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
Dayta nga aldaw ket aldaw ti pungtot, maysa nga aldaw ti riribuk ken leddaang, aldaw ti bagyo ken pannakadadael, maysa nga aldaw ti sipnget ken lulem, maysa nga aldaw dagiti ulep ken kasta unay a kinasipnget!
16 a day of the trumpet and alarm, against the fortified cities, and against the high battlements.
Aldawto daytoy dagiti trumpeta ken pakdaar a maibusor kadagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad ken kadagiti nangato a pagwanawanan!
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against Jehovah, and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as dung.
Ta iyegkonto ti kinarigat iti sangkataoan, tapno magnadanto a kasla bulsek a tattao agsipud ta nagbasolda kenni Yahweh! Maibukbukto ti darada a kasla tapuk, ken maibukbukto ti nagunegda a kasla rugit!
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's wrath, but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy. For he will make an end, yea, a terrible end, of all those who dwell in the land.
Awanto ti makaisalakan kadakuada, uray pay ti pirak wenno ti balitokda iti aldaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh! Ti apuy ti pungtot ni Yahweh ti mangibusto iti entero a daga, ta nakabutbutengto ti kanibusanan nga iyegna kadagiti agnanaed iti daga!”
