< Zephaniah 2 >
1 Gather your selues, euen gather you, O nation not worthie to be loued,
Coi uh laeh, a hue a bawt pah namtom te coi uh laeh.
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.
Oltlueh a cun hlan ah cangkik bangla khohnin loh khum. BOEIPA kah thintoek thinsa loh nang soah a pai hlan ah pawt nim, BOEIPA kah thintoek hnin loh nang soah a pai hlan ah pawt nim.
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.
A laitloeknah aka vai diklai kah kodo boeih loh BOEIPA te tlap uh laeh. Duengnah te tlap uh. Kodonah te tlap uh. BOEIPA kah thintoek hnin ah na thuh uh thai khaming.
4 For Azzah shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon desolate: they shall driue out Ashdod at the noone day, and Ekron shalbe rooted vp.
Gaza a hnoo tih Ashkelon he khopong la om ni. Ashdod te khothun ah a haek uh vetih Ekron te a haih ni.
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.
Anunae, tuipuei langdai kah khosa namtom Kerethi aih. BOEIPA ol he Philisti kho kah Kanaan nang taengah om coeng. Te dongah khosak a tal hil nang kam milh sak ni.
6 And the sea coast shall be dwellings and cotages for shepheardes and sheepefoldes.
Tuipuei rhi kah rhamtlim te boiva aka dawn kah impoem neh boiva kah tanglung la poeh ni.
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.
Te khuikah te Judah imkhui kah a meet ham khoyo la om ni. Ashkelon im ah luem uh vetih hlaem ah kol uh ni. Amih te a Pathen BOEIPA loh a hip vetih amih kah thongtla, thongtla te a mael puei ni.
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 kah kokhahnah neh Ammon ca rhoek kah honah te ka yaak coeng. Amih loh ka pilnam te a veet uh tih amamih khorhi ah pantai uh.
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.
Te dongah kai tah hingnah ni tila Israel kah Pathen caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong om coeng. Moab ngawn tah Sodom bangla, Ammon ca rhoek khaw Gomorrah bangla om ni. Lota cuk, lungkaeh pup neh kumhal kah khopong la om ni. Ka pilnam kah a meet loh amih te a poelyoe uh vetih kamah namtu, namtu kah a noi long tah amih te a pang uh ni.
10 This shall they haue for their pride, because they haue reproched and magnified themselues against the Lord of hostes people.
Caempuei BOEIPA kah pilnam te a veet uh tih a cangdoek uh dongah amih kah hoemdamnah yueng la amih ham he ni a om.
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.
Diklai pathen boeih te a yawih sak vaengah BOEIPA tah amih taengah a rhih om pai. Te dongah te hmuen kah hlang neh namtom sanglak boeih loh amah te a bawk uh ni.
12 Ye Morians also shalbe slaine by my sword with them.
Kushi nang khaw ka cunghang dongkah a rhok rhoek ni.
13 And he wil stretch out his hand against the North, and destroy Asshur, and will make Nineueh desolate, and waste like a wildernesse.
A kut te tlangpuei la a thueng vetih Assyria te a milh sak ni. Te vaengah Nineveh te khopong rhamrhae neh khosoek la a khueh ni.
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.
A laklung ah tuping neh, namtom kah a hingnah boeih khaw, khosoek saelbu khaw kol ni. Kharhoeng te a rhaimuem dongah rhaeh vetih bangbuet lamloh a ol cai ni. Cingkhaa dongkah lamphai thingpang ngawn tah kholing ah a yaal ni.
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.
Khopuei he yalpo tih ngaikhuek la kho aka sa loh a thinko neh, “Kai phoeiah lungli lungla a tloe om a?,” a ti. Balae tih a kolhmuen te imsuep la a poeh. Mulhing boeih loh te longah a pah vaengah kutving neh a kut la a khong thil mai.
