< Zephaniah 3 >

1 What disaster is coming to corrupted, rebellious Jerusalem, you who oppress people!
Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade da hame nabasu wadela: idafa sogebi, amola ilia fi da ilia fidafa dunu ili banenesisa. Yelusaleme da gugunufinisi dagoi ba: mu. Hobeale masunu logo hame ba: mu.
2 You don't listen to anybody, you don't accept correction, you don't trust in the Lord, you don't ask for God's help.
Ilia da Hina Gode Ea sia: hame nabasu amola Ea dawa: ma: ne se iasu hame lalegagui. Ilia da Hina Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale hame dawa: su, amola E ili fidima: ne hame adole ba: su.
3 Your leaders are as greedy as roaring lions; your judges are ravenous wolves that leave nothing behind by morning.
Yelusaleme eagene hawa: hamosu dunu da laione wa: me gogonomobe defele ba: sa. Ea fofada: su dunu da soge wa: me amo da gasa hahabe manusa: ligisimusa: hame dawa: sa, amo defele uasusa.
4 Your prophets are arrogant, deceitful men who defile what is sacred and who openly break the law.
Yuda balofede dunu ilia hou da diahamosu amola hohonosu agoane. Gobele salasu dunu da sema liligi amo wadela: lesisa. Ilila: musu fidima: ne, ilia Gode Ea sema ogobele olelesa.
5 But the Lord who does right is still among you, he does no wrong. Every morning he gives his judgment, every day without fail. But those who act unjustly have no shame.
Be Hina Gode da amo moilai bai bagade ga: iwane esala. E da moloidafa hou fawane hamosa amola giadofale hamosu hamedafa dawa: Hahabe huluanedafa, E da moloidafa hou Ea fi dunuma olelesa. Be moloi hame dunu da mae fisili, wadela: i hou hamonana. Amola ilia da amoga hamedafa gogosiasa.
6 I have destroyed nations. Their fortresses are deserted; their streets are empty; their cities are destroyed—there are no survivors, not one.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da fifi asi gala bagohame gugunufinisi dagoi. Na da ilia moilai bai bagade mugululi fasi amola ilia gagoi dobea amola diasu gagagula heda: i amo mugululi fasi dagoi. Moilai bai bagade huluane da ma: bui dagoi. Moilai bai bagade logo huluane da lei dagoi, dunu afae esalebe hame ba: sa.
7 I told myself, “Surely they will respect me now and accept my correction. Then their homes would not be destroyed to teach them a lesson.” But instead you're just as eager to go on doing evil.
Na da amane hamobeba: le, Na fi dunu ilia da Nama nodonanu, Na dawa: ma: ne se iasu lalegagumu amola Na olelesu hamedafa gogolemu, amo Na da dawa: i galu. Be ilia da amo olelesu mae dawa: le, ilia musa: wadela: i hou hedolowane bu hamosu.”
8 You just wait, declares the Lord. The day is coming when I will rise to give evidence. For I have decided to gather together all the nations and kingdoms and to pour out on them my anger, my fury and my rage. The whole earth will be burned up by the fire of my jealous anger.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Waha oualigima! Na da wa: legadole, fifi asi gala ilima diliwaneya udidimu. Na da amo ilegei dagoi. Na da fifi asi gala huluane ilia Na gasa bagade ougi hou ba: ma: ne gilisimu. Osobo bagade huluane da Na ougi lalu agoane amoga nei dagoi ba: mu.
9 For then I will give the nations pure speech so they can all pray and worship the Lord together.
Amasea, Na da fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilia hou afadenemu. Amola ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadosu yolesili, Nama fawane sia: ne gadomu. Ilia huluane da Na sia: nabawane hamomu.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my scattered people, my worshipers, will come to bring their offerings to me.
Idioubia soge da badiliadafa amola amoga Na fi mogili da afagogoi. Be amoga Na fi dunu afagogoi da udigili iasu Nama gaguli misunu.
11 On that day you won't be ashamed because of what you did in rebelling against me, for I will remove from among you those who are proud and boastful. Never again will you be conceited on my holy mountain.
Na fi dunu! Amo esoha, dilia da musa: Nama lelebeba: le, bu hame gogosiamu. Na da nowa dunu da gasa fi amola hidale hamosu amo huluane dilia fi amoga fadegale fasimu. Amasea, dilia da Na sema agologa, Nama bu hamedafa lelemu.
12 I will leave among you those who are meek and humble, those who trust in the name of the Lord.
Na da amogawi, fi amo da asaboi amola bodogi gala hamomu. Ilia Nama Na fidisu lama: ne misunusa: hame higamu.
13 The people of Israel who remain will not act wickedly nor will they tell lies. They will not deceive one another. They will be able to eat in peace and sleep in safety for there will be nothing to frighten them.
Isala: ili fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe da dunu enoma wadela: le hamedafa hamomu. Ilia da ogogosu hamedafa dawa: mu. Ilia da bagade gaguiwane amola gaga: iwane esalumu. Amola ilia da eno dunuma hamedafa beda: mu. Isala: ili dunu! Hahawaneba: le, gesami hea: ma
14 Sing out, Jerusalem! Shout aloud, Israel! Jerusalem, be happy and celebrate with all your heart!
Hahawane gesami hea: ma amola wema! Yelusaleme fi dilia! Dilia dogoga ha: giwane nodoma!
15 For the Lord has turned aside from punishing you, and he has turned back your enemies. The Lord, the king of Israel, is with you, and you will never again have to fear disaster.
Hina Gode da dilia se iasu dagolesi. E da dilima ha lai dunu huluane sefasi dagoi. Hina Gode, Isala: ili Hina Bagade, E da dili esala. Wali beda: su bai da hame gala.
16 On that day the message to the people of Jerusalem will be, “Don't be afraid; don't be discouraged!”
Eso da mana amoga ilia da Yelusaleme fi ilima amane sia: mu, “Saione moilai bai bagade fi! Mae beda: ma! Beda: ga lobo mae bodola: le salima!
17 The Lord your God is among you as a mighty warrior who saves. He will be so happy with you. He will renew his love for you. He will celebrate over you with loud singing.
Dilia Hina Gode da dili esala. Ea gasa da dilima iba: le, dilia da ha lai dunu ili hasali. Hina Gode da dili hahawane dogolegele ba: mu. E da dilima asigiba: le, gaheabolo esalusu dilima imunu. E da dilima gesami hea: mu, amola dunu da lolo nabe amoga hahawane gala, amo defele E da dilima hahawane ba: mu.”
18 I will gather those of you who mourn for the religious festivals—you will no longer have to bear the disgrace.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da dili wadela: lesimu sia: i amo dagolesi. Na da dilia gogosiasu fadegai dagoi.
19 Look at what I am going to do! At that time I am going to deal with all those who have oppressed you. I will save those who are helpless and bring back those who were scattered, and I will turn their shame into praise, and all the world will respect them.
Eso da mana! Amoga Na da dilima banenesisu dunu ilima se imunu. Na da emo gasuga: igi dunu huluane gaga: mu. Amola mugululi asi dunu bu oule misunu. Na da ilia gogosiasu bu sinidigili, osobo bagade dunu huluane da ilima nodone sia: mu.
20 At that time I will bring you home, gathering you together. I will give you a good reputation, and you will be praised by all the peoples of the earth when I restore your status before your very eyes, says the Lord.
Eso da mana! Na da dilia afagogoi dunu bu oule misunu. Na da hamobeba: le, osobo bagade dunu huluane dili dawa: digili nodomu. Dilia da hahawane bagade gaguiwane bu ba: mu.” Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi. Sia: ama dagoi
