Zephaniah 3
1 What disaster is coming to corrupted, rebellious Jerusalem, you who oppress people!
Waxaa iska hoogtay magaalada caasiyowday oo nijaasowday oo wax dulunta!
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.
Iyadu codkii ma ay addeecin, oo edbintiina ma ay aqbalin, oo Rabbiga iskuma ay hallayn, oo Ilaahna kuma ay soo dhowaan.
3 Your leaders are as greedy as roaring lions; your judges are ravenous wolves that leave nothing behind by morning.
Amiirradeeda iyada dhex jooga waa sida libaaxyo ciyaya, xaakinnadeeduna waa sida yeey habeennimo oo aan waxba tan iyo aroortii reebin.
4 Your prophets are arrogant, deceitful men who defile what is sacred and who openly break the law.
Nebiyadeedu waa kuwo fudud oo khiyaano badan, oo wadaaddadeediina meeshii quduuska ahayd ayay nijaaseeyeen, oo sharcigiina si xun bay u dhaafeen.
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.
Rabbiga dhexdeeda jooga waa xaq, oo innaba xumaan ma samayn doono, oo caddaaladdiisana aroor kastaba wuu soo saaraa, oo marnaba kama baaqdo, laakiinse caddaaladlaawuhu isma ceebsan yaqaan.
6 I have destroyed nations. Their fortresses are deserted; their streets are empty; their cities are destroyed—there are no survivors, not one.
Anigu quruumo ayaan baabbi'iyey, oo qalcadahoodiina waa baabba', oo jidadkoodiina cidla baan ka dhigay si aan ciduna u marin, oo magaalooyinkoodiina waa la dumiyey, si aan qofna u joogin oo aan cid keliyuhuna u degganaan.
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.
Waxaan idhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah waad iga cabsan doontaa, oo edbin baad aqbali doontaa. Markaas hoygeedu uma uu baabbe'een sidii aan iyada u goostay. Laakiinse aroor horay keceen oo falimahoodii oo dhan way xumeeyeen.
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.
Haddaba i suga, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay, ilaa maalinta aan ugaadhsade u soo kici doono, waayo, waxaan ku talajiraa inaan quruumaha isu soo ururiyo oo aan boqortooyooyinka isu soo shiriyo, si aan korkooda ugu shubo dhirifkayga iyo xataa xanaaqayga kulul oo dhan, waayo, dhulka oo dhan waxaa baabbi'in doona dabka qiiradayda.
9 For then I will give the nations pure speech so they can all pray and worship the Lord together.
Waayo, markaas ayaan dadyowga siin doonaa af daahir ah, si ay kulligood magaca Rabbiga ugu yeedhaan, oo ay isaga ugu adeegaan isku niyad keliya.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my scattered people, my worshipers, will come to bring their offerings to me.
Kuwa i barya oo ah dadkayga firidhsan waxay webiyaasha Itoobiya shishadooda ka keeni doonaan qurbaankayga.
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.
Wakhtigaas uma aad ceeboobi doontid falimahaaga oo dhan, kuwaas oo aad igaga xadgudubtay, waayo, markaas waxaan dhexdaada ka bixin doonaa kuwaaga kibray oo isfaaninaya, oo adna mar dambe ku madax weynaan maysid buurtayda quduuska ah.
12 I will leave among you those who are meek and humble, those who trust in the name of the Lord.
Laakiinse dhexdaada waxaan uga tegi doonaa dad dhibaataysan oo masaakiin ah, oo iyana magaca Rabbiga ayay isku hallayn doonaan.
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.
Kuwa reer binu Israa'iil ka hadhay xumaan ma samayn doonaan, beenna ma sheegi doonaan, oo afkoodana innaba carrab khiyaano badan lagama heli doono, waayo, iyagu wax bay quudan doonaan oo way iska jiifsan doonaan, oo waxba iyaga ma cabsiin doonaan.
14 Sing out, Jerusalem! Shout aloud, Israel! Jerusalem, be happy and celebrate with all your heart!
Magaalada Siyoonay, gabay, reer binu Israa'iilow, qayliya, Magaalada Yeruusaalemay, farax oo qalbiga oo dhan ku reyree.
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.
Rabbigu wuxuu qaaday xukummadaadii, oo cadowgaagiina wuu tuuray. Boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil oo Rabbiga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, oo mar dambe shar ka baqi maysid.
16 On that day the message to the people of Jerusalem will be, “Don't be afraid; don't be discouraged!”
Wakhtigaas waxaa Yeruusaalem lagu odhan doonaa, Ha cabsan, Siyoonay, yaan gacmahaagu debcin.
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.
Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, isagu waa mid xoog badan oo ku badbaadin doona. Farxad buu kuugu rayrayn doonaa, oo wuxuu ku nasan doonaa jacaylkiisa, oo gabay buu kuugu farxi doonaa.
18 I will gather those of you who mourn for the religious festivals—you will no longer have to bear the disgrace.
Waxaan soo ururin doonaa kuwaagii laga masaafuriyey oo haatan u murugaysan shirka quduuska ah, kuwaasoo culaabta kor saaranu ay cay ahayd.
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.
Bal eeg, wakhtigaas anigaa la macaamiloon doona kuwa ku dhiba oo dhan, oo waan badbaadin doonaa kuwa dhutiya, oo kuwii la eryayna waan soo ururin doonaa, oo kuwii ceebtoodu ay wada gaadhay dhulka oo dhan ayaan u yeeli doonaa ammaan iyo magac.
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.
Oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo gelin doonaa gudaha, oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo ururin doonaa, waayo, dadyowga dunida jooga oo dhan waxaan idiinku dhex yeeli doonaa magac iyo ammaan, markaan maxaabiistiinnii oo dhan hortiinna ku soo celiyo, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
