Zephaniah 2
1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O shameless nation;
Mutunfacl sumwekin, kom in asmakla
2 Before the decree bring forth the day when one passeth as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD'S anger come upon you.
meet liki kom fah ukyukla oana kulun wheat ma eng uh okla, meet liki kasrkusrak upa lun LEUM GOD tuku nu fom oana firir lun e uh, meet liki len se El akkalemye kasrkusrak lal.
3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye humble of the earth, that have executed His ordinance; seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.
Suk LEUM GOD, kowos mwet pusisel nukewa fin acn uh, su akos ma sap lal. Oru ma suwohs, ac akpusiselye kowos sifacna ye mutun LEUM GOD. Sahp kowos fah ku in kaingla liki kaiyuk in len se LEUM GOD El ac fah akkalemye kasrkusrak lal.
4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation; they shall drive out Ashdod at the noonday, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
Wangin sie mwet ac fah lula in siti Gaza. Ashkelon ac fah wanginla mwet muta we. Mwet in Ashdod ac fah lisyukla ke tafun len na, ac mwet in Ekron ac fah ukohkyak liki siti selos.
5 Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea-coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines; I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.
Kowos mwet Philistia su muta weacn uh, kowos ac fah kunausyukla. LEUM GOD El orala tari nununku lal nu suwos. El ac kunauskowosla, ac tia sie suwos fah lula.
6 And the sea-coast shall be pastures, even meadows for shepherds, and folds for flocks.
Acn lowos sisken meoa uh ac fah mwesisla, ac lohm sin mwet shepherd ac kalkal in sheep fah oan we.
7 And it shall be a portion for the remnant of the house of Judah, whereon they shall feed; in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the LORD their God will remember them, and turn their captivity.
Mwet Judah su moulla ac fah utyak ac muta fin acn lowos. Elos ac fah orala acn uh nu ke nien mongo lun un kosro natulos, ac motul in lohm sin mwet Ashkelon. LEUM GOD lalos fah welulos ac sifilpa akkasrupyalos.
8 I have heard the taunt of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, wherewith they have taunted My people, and spoken boastfully concerning their border.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Nga lohng ke mwet Moab ac mwet Ammon elos fahk kas in akkolukye ac aksruksruki mwet luk, ac konkin mu elos ac eisla acn selos.
9 Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding-place of nettles, and saltpits, and a desolation, for ever; the residue of My people shall spoil them, and the remnant of My nation shall inherit them.
In oana ke nga pa LEUM GOD moul, God lun Israel, nga fahkot na pwaye lah acn Moab ac Ammon ac fah kunausyukla oana acn Sodom ac Gomorrah. Elos ac fah ekla oana sie luf in sohl ac musalla nwe tok, ac mah uh ac fah kapak ac kupoiya acn uh. Mwet luk su moulla ac fah utyak ac usla ma lalos nukewa, ac eisla acn selos.”
10 This shall they have for their pride, because they have taunted and spoken boastfully against the people of the LORD of hosts.
Pa ingan luman kaiyuk su ac fah orek nu sin mwet Moab ac Ammon ke sripen filang ac inse fulat lalos, ac ke sripen elos angon mwet lun LEUM GOD Kulana.
11 The LORD will be terrible unto them; for He will famish all the gods of the earth; then shall all the isles of the nations worship Him, every one from its place.
LEUM GOD El ac fah aklangingingyalos. El ac fah aksrikyela god lun faclu nwe ke na wanginla, na mutunfacl nukewa fah alu nu sel, kais sie in acn sel sifacna.
12 Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by My sword.
LEUM GOD El fah oayapa uniya mwet Ethiopia.
13 And He will stretch out His hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like the wilderness.
LEUM GOD ac fah orekmakin ku lal in kunausla Assyria. El fah oru tuh siti Nineveh in oana sie mahnum su wanginla mwet muta we, ac in oana sie acn mwesis wangin kof we.
14 And all beasts of every kind shall lie down in the midst of her in herds; both the pelican and the bittern shall lodge in the capitals thereof; voices shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the posts; for the cedar-work thereof shall be uncovered.
Ac fah sie acn in oan lun un sheep ac un cow ac kain in kosro nukewa. Owl fah muta inmasrlon acn musalla ac tung in winto ah me. Wa ac fah kaskas fin acn in utyak uh. Sak cedar ke lohm uh ac fah taktakla.
15 This is the joyous city that dwelt without care, that said in her heart: 'I am, and there is none else beside me'; how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! Every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.
Pa inge ma ac sikyak nu ke siti se su arulana insefulatkin ku lal sifacna, ac nunku mu wangin ma ac aklokoalokyal. Mwet we nunku mu siti selos pa ku ac fulat oemeet fin faclu. Ac fuka lupan musallaiyen acn sac, ke ac fah ekla sie acn in mongla lun kosro lemnak. Mwet nukewa su fahsryak we ac fah sangeng ac kohloli liki acn we.
