< Zephaniah 2 >

1 Gather yourselves, gather together, O shameful nation,
Dilia da hame gogosiasu fi! Dilia asigi dawa: su moloma!
2 before the decree takes effect and the day passes like chaff, before the burning anger of the LORD comes upon you, before the Day of the LORD’s anger comes upon you.
Dilia da gisi a: le fasi defele amo biosa: besa: le, amola Hina Gode Ea gia: i bagade ougi hou dilima doaga: sa: besa: le, dilia asigi dawa: su moloma!
3 Seek the LORD, all you humble of the earth who carry out His justice. Seek righteousness; seek humility. Perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the LORD’s anger.
Hina Godema sinidigima! Soge ganodini asaboi dunu amo da Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamosa, dilia Hina Godema sinidigima! Moloidafa hamoma amola Hina Gode ba: ma: ne, dilia hou fofonoboma! Amabela? Dilia da amo esoga, Hina Gode da Ea ougi hou ba: ma: ne olelesea, se nabasu hame ba: mu.
4 For Gaza will be abandoned, and Ashkelon left in ruins. Ashdod will be driven out at noon, and Ekron will be uprooted.
Ga: isa amola A: segelone moilai bai bagade ela ganodini dunu afae esalebe hame ba: mu. Asedode moilai bai bagade dunu da eso afaega esomogoa gadili sefasi dagoi ba: mu. Egelone moilai bai bagade dunu fi da gadili sefasi dagoi ba: mu.
5 Woe to the dwellers of the seacoast, O nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines: “I will destroy you, and no one will be left.”
Dilia Filisidini dunu amo da hano wayabo bagade bega: esala! Dilia amola da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Hina Gode da dilima se nabasu imunusa: ilegei dagoi. E da dili huluane wadela: lesili, dilia dunu afae esalebe hame ba: mu.
6 So the seacoast will become a land of pastures, with wells for shepherds and folds for sheep.
Dilia soge huluane hano wayabo gadenene da dunu hame esalebe, moifufu sogebi fawane ba: mu. Amogawi sibi ouligisu dunu ilia diasu amola sibi gagoi amo fawane dialebe ba: mu.
7 The coast will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; there they will find pasture. They will lie down in the evening among the houses of Ashkelon, for the LORD their God will attend to them and restore their captives.
Amola Yuda fi hame bogoi esalebe dunu da misini, dilia soge lale fimu. Ilia sibi amola bulamagau wa: i da amogawi afugisimu. Amola dunu da A: segelone moilai bai bagade diasu ili ganodini golamu. Amola ilia Hina Gode da ili ouligimu, amola ilia da bu hahawane bagade gaguiwane fifi lalumu.
8 “I have heard the reproach of Moab and the insults of the Ammonites, who have taunted My people and threatened their borders.
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Moua: be amola A: mone fi dunu da Na fi dunu ilima gadele sia: su, amola ilima dafama: ne sia: su amola ilia soge lama: ne hidale nodone sia: su, Na da nabi dagoi.
9 Therefore, as surely as I live,” declares the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, “surely Moab will be like Sodom and the Ammonites like Gomorrah— a place of weeds and salt pits, a perpetual wasteland. The remnant of My people will plunder them; the remainder of My nation will dispossess them.”
Na da Isala: ili fi ilia Fifi Ahoanusu Godedafa! Amola Na da dafawanedafa amane ilegele sia: sa. Na da Sodame amola Goumola moilai bai bagade wadela: lesi, amo defele Na da Moua: be amola A: mone wadela: lesimu. Ilia sogega da sali dogosu gelabo bagohame ba: mu amola wadela: lesi dagoiba: le bu hahamomu da hamedei ba: mu. Wadela: i gisi da amo soge dedebomu. Na fi dunu (Isala: ili fi) amo da hame bogoi esalebe, da Moua: be amola A: mone ilia liligi amola ilia soge gegene lamu.”
10 This they shall have in return for their pride, for taunting and mocking the people of the LORD of Hosts.
Moua: be amola A: mone fi dunu da gasa fili, Hina Gode Bagadedafa amo Ea fi dunu ilima gadele bagade sia: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da se iasu bagade ba: mu.
11 The LORD will be terrifying to them when He starves all the gods of the earth. Then the nations of every shore will bow in worship to Him, each in its own place.
Hina Gode da ili bagade beda: ma: ne hamomu. E da osobo bagade ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi huluane dafawane wadela: lesimu. Amasea, fifi asi gala dunu huluanedafa da ilia soge afae afae ganodini, Ema nodone sia: ne gadomu.
12 “You too, O Cushites, will be slain by My sword.”
Amola Hina Gode da Idioubia fi dunu medole legemu.
13 And He will stretch out His hand against the north and destroy Assyria; He will make Nineveh a desolation, as dry as a desert.
Hina Gode da Ea gasaga, amo Asilia soge wadela: lesimu. E da Ninefe moilai bai bagade wadela: lesimu. Amo da dunu hame esalebe, mugului dagoi, hano hamedene hafoga: i soge agoane ba: mu.
14 Herds will lie down in her midst, creatures of every kind. Both the desert owl and screech owl will roost atop her pillars. Their calls will sound from the window, but desolation will lie on the threshold, for He will expose the beams of cedar.
Amasea, amoga da bulamagau, sibi wa: i amola ohe fi hisu hisu ilia fawane esalebe ba: mu. Ea mugulubi amo ganodini da baou esalumu. Ilia da diasu logo holei gelabodili gugumuni imunu. Ninefe moilai bai bagade dobea fei dolo ifa da hiougili fasi dagoi ba: mu.
15 This carefree city that dwells securely, that thinks to herself: “I am it, and there is none besides me,” what a ruin she has become, a resting place for beasts. Everyone who passes by her hisses and shakes his fist.
Ninefe fi dunu ilisu da gasa bagade amola hahawane gaga: i dagoi ilisu dawa: sa. Ilia moilai bai bagade da osobo bagade moilai bai bagade huluane baligi dagoi ilisu dawa: sa. Be ilia moilai bai bagade da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ea sogebi da dunu hame esalebe hamedei soge agoane ba: mu, amola amo ganodini sigua ohe fi fawane esalebe ba: mu. Dunu huluane da amo sogebi bobaligisia, fofogadigili hagamu.
