Zephaniah 1
1 THE WORD of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
Niheo amy Tsefanià ana’ i Kosý ana’ i Gedalià ana’ i Amarià, ana’ i Kizkià faha’ Iosià ana’ i Amone, mpanjaka’ Iehoda ty tsara’ Iehovà:
2 I will utterly consume all things from off the face of the earth, saith the LORD.
Toe ho faopaoheko ami’ty tarehe’ ty tane toy ze he’e, hoe t’Iehovà.
3 I will consume man and beast, I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the face of the earth, saith the LORD.
Ho mongoreko ondatio naho o bibio; ho fongoreko o voron-dindìñeo, naho o fian-driakeo, naho o vato mahatsikapio mindre amo lo-tserekeo; vaho haitoako an-tane atoy ondatio, hoe t’Iehovà.
4 And I will stretch out My hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the idolatrous priests with the priests;
Hatora-kitsiko ty tañako, am’ Iehoda naho amo hene ondaty e Ierosalaimeo; le haitoako ami’ty toetse toy ty sisa’ i Baale, naho ty tahina’ o mpisorom- pahasiveo rekets’ o mpisoro’eo;
5 And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship, that swear to the LORD and swear by Malcam;
o mitalaho amy fifamorohotan-dindiñey an-tafo’eoo; o mitalaho naho mifanta am’ Iehovà vaho mifanta amy Malkameo;
6 Them also that are turned back from following the LORD; and those that have not sought the LORD, nor inquired after Him.
o mitolike tsy mañorike Iehovào; naho o tsy mipay Iehovà vaho tsy mihalaly ama’eo.
7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD; for the day of the LORD is at hand, for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, He hath consecrated His guests.
Mianjiña am-piatrefa’ Iehovà, Talè; fa antitotse ty andro’ Iehovà, fa nihentseñe fisoroñañe jabajaba t’Iehovà, vaho hene tinendre’e o hambarà’eo.
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD'S sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's sons, and all such as are clothed with foreign apparel.
Aa ie tondroke ty androm-pisoroña’ Iehovà, le ho liloveko o roandriañeo, naho o ana-donakeo, vaho ze ondaty misikin-damban’ambahiny iaby.
9 In the same day also will I punish all those that leap over the threshold, that fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
Amy andro zay ka, le ho fonga lafaeko o mitsamboan-tokonañe naho mampikobake ty anjomban- talè’e am-pikatramoañe vaho am-pamañahiañeo.
10 And in that day, saith the LORD, Hark! a cry from the fish gate, and a wailing from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills.
Ie amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà: Inay ty kaikaike boak’an-dalam-beim-pìañe ao, naho ty fangololoihañe amy efetse faharoey; vaho fandrihindrihiñañe am-bohitse ey.
11 Wail, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are undone; all they that were laden with silver are cut off.
Mangoihoìa ry mpimone’ i Maktese, fa mibalake iaby o mpanao balikeo, fa naito iaby o niragorago volafotio.
12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps; and I will punish the men that are settled on their lees, that say in their heart: 'The LORD will not do good, neither will He do evil.'
Ie amy andro zay, le ho kodebèko am-pailo t’Ierosalaime; le ho liloveko ondaty miagarègañeo, ie manao ty hoe: Tsy hanao soa t’Iehovà, mbore tsy hanao raty.
13 Therefore their wealth shall become a booty, and their houses a desolation; yea, they shall build houses, but shall not inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, but shall not drink the wine thereof.
Le ho kopaheñe o vara’eo, naho hangoakoake o akiba’eo; eka, handrafetse anjomba iereo fe tsy himoneña’e, hambole tanem-bahe f’ie tsy hinoñe amy divai’e.
14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD, wherein the mighty man crieth bitterly.
Toe an-titotse ty andro ra’elahi’ Iehovà, mitotoke vaho mihitrike, ty feo mafaitse ty andro’ Iehovà, ty hampangoihoy i fanalolahiy.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
Andron-kaviñerañe i andro zay, andro kankàñe naho faloviloviañe, andro famaopaohañe naho fampikoahañe, andron-kamoromoroñañe naho migoboñe, andro milodolodo vaho ieñe mangeoñe,
16 A day of the horn and alarm, against the fortified cities, and against the high towers.
Andro’ i antsivay naho ty hazolava, amo rova fatratseo naho amo fijilovañ’ aboo.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like the blind, because they have sinned against the LORD; and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as dung.
Hampalovilovieko ondatio, hijimenjimeña’e hoe goa, amy te nandilatse am’ Iehovà; hikararàke hoe deboke ty lio’ iareo, naho hoe forompotse o nofo’eo.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole earth shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy; for He will make and end, yea, a terrible end, of all them that dwell in the earth.
Tsy haharombake iareo ty volafoti’ iareo ndra ty volamena, amy andron-kaviñera’ Iehovày, fonga ho forototoe’ ty afom-pamarahia’e ty tane toy; toe hampijadoñe’e figadoñañe, eka, figadoñan-kankàñe, amo mpimoneñe an-tane atoio.
