< Zephaniah 1 >

1 The word of the Lord, which came vnto Zephaniah ye sonne of Cushi, the sonne of Gedaliah, the sonne of Amariah, the sonne of Hizkiah, in the dayes of Iosiah, the sonne of Amon King of Iudah.
Gospodova beseda, ki je prišla Sofoniju, sinu Kušíja, sinú Gedaljája, sinú Amarjá, sinú Hezekija, v dneh Jošíja, Amónovega sina, Judovega kralja.
2 I will surely destroy all things from off the land, saith the Lord.
»Popolnoma bom použil vse stvari iz dežele, « govori Gospod.
3 I will destroy man and beast: I wil destroy the foules of the heauen, and the fishes of the sea, and ruines shalbe to the wicked, and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the Lord.
»Použil bom človeka in žival. Z zlobnimi bom použil perjad neba in ribe morja in kamne spotike in človeka bom iztrebil iz dežele, « govori Gospod.
4 I will also stretch out mine hand vpon Iudah, and vpon all the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and I wil cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarims with ye Priestes,
»Prav tako bom svojo roko iztegnil nad Juda in nad vse prebivalce Jeruzalema in iztrebil bom preostanek Báala iz tega mesta in ime Kemarimov z duhovniki;
5 And them that worship the hoste of heauen vpon the house tops, and them that worship and sweare by the Lord, and sweare by Malcham,
in tiste, ki obožujejo vojsko neba na hišnih strehah; in tiste, ki obožujejo in ki prisegajo pri Gospodu in prisegajo pri Milkómu;
6 And them that are turned backe from the Lord, and those that haue not sought the Lord, nor inquired for him.
in tiste, ki so obrnjeni nazaj od Gospoda; in tiste, ki niso iskali Gospoda niti poizvedovali za njim.«
7 Be stil at the presence of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is at hand: for the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice, and hath sanctified his ghests.
Mirujte ob prisotnosti Gospoda Boga, kajti dan Gospodov je pri roki, kajti Gospod je pripravil klavno daritev, povabil je svoje goste.
8 And it shalbe in the day of the Lords sacrifice, that I will visite the princes and the Kings children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparell.
»In zgodilo se bo, na dan Gospodove klavne daritve, da bom kaznoval prince in kraljeve otroke in vse tiste, ki so oblečeni s tujo obleko.
9 In the same day also will I visite all those that dance vpon the threshold so proudly, which fill their masters houses by crueltie and deceite.
V istem dnevu bom kaznoval tudi vse tiste, ki poskakujejo na pragu, ki napolnjujejo hiše svojih gospodarjev z nasiljem in prevaro.
10 And in that day, saith the Lord, there shall be a noise, and cry from the fishgate, and an howling from the second gate, and a great destruction from the hilles.
Na tisti dan se bo zgodilo, « govori Gospod, » da bo glas vpitja od Ribjih velikih vrat in tuljenja od drugih in veliko lomljenje s hribov.
11 Howle ye inhabitants of the lowe place: for the companie of the marchants is destroyed: all they that beare siluer, are cut off.
Tulite, vi prebivalci Maltarke, kajti vse trgovsko ljudstvo je posekano. Vsi tisti, ki nosijo srebro, so iztrebljeni.
12 And at that time will I searche Ierusalem with lightes, and visite the men that are frosen in their dregges, and say in their heartes, The Lord will neither doe good nor doe euill.
Ob tistem času se bo zgodilo, da bom Jeruzalem preiskal s svetilkami in kaznoval ljudi, ki so naseljeni na svojih usedlinah, ki v svojem srcu pravijo: › Gospod ne bo storil dobrega niti ne bo storil zlega.‹
13 Therefore their goods shall be spoyled, and their houses waste: they shall also build houses, but not inhabite them, and they shall plant vineyards, but not drinke the wine thereof.
Zato bodo njihove dobrine postale plen in njihove hiše opustošenje. Prav tako bodo gradili hiše, toda ne bodo jih poselili in sadili bodo vinograde, toda od njihovega vina ne bodo pili.«
14 The great day of the Lord is neere: it is neere, and hasteth greatly, euen the voyce of the day of the Lord: the strong man shall cry there bitterly.
Gospodov véliki dan je blizu, ta je blizu in silno hiti, celó glas Gospodovega dneva. Mogočen človek bo tam grenko jokal.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and heauinesse, a day of destruction and desolation, a day of obscuritie and darkenesse, a day of cloudes and blackenesse,
Tisti dan je dan besa, dan stiske in tegobe, dan pustote in opustošenja in dan teme in mračnosti, dan oblakov in goste teme,
16 A day of the trumpet and alarme against the strong cities, and against the hie towres.
dan šofarja in alarma zoper utrjena mesta in zoper visoke stolpe.
17 And I will bring distresse vpon men, that they shall walke like blind men, because they haue sinned against the Lord, and their blood shall be powred out as dust, and their flesh as the dongue.
»Na ljudi bom privedel tegobo, da bodo hodili kakor slepi ljudje, ker so grešili zoper Gospoda in njihova kri bo izlita kakor prah in njihovo meso kakor gnoj.«
18 Neither their siluer nor their golde shalbe able to deliuer them in ye day of the Lords wrath, but the whole lande shalbe deuoured by the fire of his ielousie: for hee shall make euen a speedie riddance of all them that dwell in the land.
Niti jih njihovo srebro niti njihovo zlato ne bo moglo osvoboditi na dan Gospodovega besa, temveč bo celotna dežela použita z ognjem njegove ljubosumnosti, kajti celo zelo hitro se bo znebil vseh tistih, ki prebivajo v deželi.«
