Zephaniah 2
1 Gather your selues, euen gather you, O nation not worthie to be loued,
Aw koeh koi kaom ai acaeng, nawnto amkhueng oh, ue,
2 Before the decree come foorth, and ye be as chaffe that passeth in a day, and before the fierce wrath of the Lord come vpon you, and before the day of the Lords anger come vpon you.
nangcae loe lok takroekhaih atue pha ai, tavai baktiah takhoekhaih ni to pha ai, nangcae nuiah zit kaom Angraeng palungphuihaih pha ai vop moe, nangcae nuiah Angraeng palungphuihaih ni pha ai naah, nawnto amkhueng oh.
3 Seeke yee the Lord all the meeke of the earth, which haue wrought his iudgement: seeke righteousnesse, seeke lowlinesse, if so bee that ye may be hid in the day of the Lords wrath.
Long ah kaom tuinom kahoih katawn kaminawk, anih toenghaih pazui kaminawk boih, Angraeng to pakrong oh; toenghaih to pakrong oh loe, tuinom hoihaih to pakrong oh, to tiah nahaeloe Angraeng palungphuihaih niah nangcae anghawkhaih ahmuen to na hnu o khoe doeh om tih.
4 For Azzah shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon desolate: they shall driue out Ashdod at the noone day, and Ekron shalbe rooted vp.
Gaza to pahnawt sut ueloe, Ashkelon to tahmat ving tih: athun naah Ashdod to pathok ueloe, Ekron to tangzun hoi nawnto aphong ving tih.
5 Wo vnto the inhabitants of the sea coast. the nation of the Cherethims, the worde of the Lord is against you: O Canaan, the lande of the Philistims, I will euen destroye thee without an inhabitant.
Tuipui taengah kaom, Aw Kereth acaengnawk khosak na bing o! Nang loe Angraeng ih lok mah misa ah ang suek boeh: Aw Kanaan, Philistinnawk ih prae, nang to kang phraek han, to naah anghmat kami maeto doeh om mak ai.
6 And the sea coast shall be dwellings and cotages for shepheardes and sheepefoldes.
Tuipui taeng ih ahmuen loe, tuutoep kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen hoi tuunawk paunghaih ahmuen ah om tih.
7 And that coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Iudah, to feede thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lodge toward night: for the Lord their God shall visite them, and turne away their captiuitie.
To ahmuen loe anghmat kami Judah imthung takoh mah toep o ueloe, to ah tuunawk to pacah o tih: Ashketon ih imthung takohnawk loe duembang ah angsong o tih: angmacae ih Angraeng Sithaw mah nihcae to khenzawn ueloe, nihcae misong ah ohhaih hoiah amlaem o let tih.
8 I haue heard the reproch of Moab, and the rebukes of the children of Ammon, whereby they vpbraided my people, and magnified themselues against their borders.
Moab kaminawk kasae thuihaih hoi Ammon kaminawk pacaekthlaekhaih lok to ka thaih boeh, nihcae loe kai ih kaminawk to kasae thuih o moe, nihcae hoi prae angzit kaminawk hanah pazih o.
9 Therefore, as I liue, saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall bee as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorah, euen the breeding of nettels and salt pittes, and a perpetuall desolation: the residue of my folke shall spoyle them, and the remnant of my people shall possesse them.
Kai ka hing pongah, Moab loe Sodom baktih, Ammon kaminawk loe Gomorrah baktiah om tih; nihcae loe soekhring kaom ahmuen, paloi takaehhaih ahmuen hoi taw thungah om o poe tih: kanghmat kai ih kaminawk mah nihcae to tuh o ueloe, kanghmat kai ih kaminawk mah nihcae ih prae to toep o tih, tiah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw mah thuih.
10 This shall they haue for their pride, because they haue reproched and magnified themselues against the Lord of hostes people.
Nihcae loe misatuh Angraeng ih kaminawk to kasae thuih o, zit kathok misa ah suek o pongah, nihcae amoekhaih atho ah hae hae hnu o tih.
11 The Lord will be terrible vnto them: for he wil consume all the gods of the earth, and euery man shall worship him from his place, euen all the yles of the heathen.
Anih mah long ah kaom sithawnawk boih to tidoeh na ai ah omsak ueloe, Angraeng loe nihcae han zit thok tih: kaminawk boih mah angmacae ohhaih ahmuen hoiah anih to pakoeh o tih.
12 Ye Morians also shalbe slaine by my sword with them.
Nangcae Ethiopia kaminawk, nangcae doeh ka sumsen hoiah hum o tih.
13 And he wil stretch out his hand against the North, and destroy Asshur, and will make Nineueh desolate, and waste like a wildernesse.
Anih ih ban loe aluek bangah phok tahang ueloe, Assyria to amrosak tih, Nineveh vangpui to pongsak sut ueloe, praezaek baktiah omsak tih.
14 And flockes shall lie in the middes of her, and all the beastes of the nations, and the pelicane, and the owle shall abide in the vpper postes of it: the voyce of birdes shall sing in the windowes, and desolations shalbe vpon the postes: for the cedars are vncouered.
Tuunawk loe a um ah tabok o ueloe, to ah moi congca om o tih: praezaek ih tui tavaa hoi bukbuhnawk loe vangpui ih tung nuiah acuk o tih, nihcae hanghaih lok loe thokbuem hoiah angthai tih; sidar thing hoi sak ih hmuen to khongkha taengah caeh o taak sut tih.
15 This is the reioycing citie that dwelt carelesse, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none besides me: how is she made waste, and the lodging of the beastes! euery one that passeth by her, shall hisse and wagge his hand.
Hae loe kanawm acaeng vangpui ah oh, anih loe a palung thung hoiah, Kaimah boeh ni, kai pacoengah mi doeh om ai boeh, tiah thuih. Anih loe vaihi pongsut boeh moe, moinawk tabokhaih ahmuen ah oh ving boeh! Anih taeng ah caeh kaminawk boih mah pahnui o thuih ueloe, ban takhoek o thui tih.
