Sophonias 1
1 The word of the Lord which came to Sophonias the son of Chusi, the son of Godolias, the son of Amorias, the son of Ezekias, in the days of Josias son of Amon, king of Juda.
O KA olelo a Iehova, ka mea i hiki mai io Zepania la i ke keiki a Kusi, ke keiki a Gedalia, ke keiki a Amaria, ke keiki a Hizekia, i na la o Iosia ke keiki a Amona, ke alii o ka Iuda.
2 Let there be an utter cutting off from the face of the land, says the Lord.
E lawe loa aku auanei au i na mea a pau mai luna aku o ka aina, wahi a Iehova.
3 Let man and cattle be cut off; let the birds of the air and the fishes of the sea be cut off; and the ungodly shall fail, and I will take away the transgressors from the face of the land, says the Lord.
E lawe auanei au i na kanaka a me na holoholona; E lawe auanei au i na manu o ka lewa, a me na ia o ke kai, A me na mea e hina ai, me ka poe hewa; A e hooki iho hoi au i na kanaka mai luna aku o ka aina, wahi a Iehova.
4 And I will stretch out mine hand upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will remove the names of Baal out of this place, and the names of the priests;
E kau aku hoi au i kuu lima maluna o ka Iuda, A me na kanaka a pau o Ierusalema: A e hooki iho au i ke koena o ko Baala, mai keia wahi aku, A me ka inoa o na mea hoomanakii a me na kahuna hoi;
5 and them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship and swear by the Lord, and them that swear by their king;
A me ka poe hoomana i ka puali o ka lani maluna o na hale; A me ka poe hoomana, a hoohiki hoi ma Iehova, A me ka hoohiki ma Malekama;
6 and them that turn aside from the Lord, and them that seek not the Lord, and them that cleave not to the Lord.
A me ka poe i hoi ihope mai o Iehova aku; A me ka poe aole i imi ia Iehova, aole hoi i ninau aku nona.
7 Fear you before the Lord God; for the day of the Lord is near; for the Lord has prepared his sacrifice, and has sanctified his guests.
E hamau oe ma ke alo o Iehova ka Haku: No ka mea, ua kokoke mai nei ka la o Iehova: No ka mea, ua hoomakaukau mai la o Iehova i ka mohai, A ua hoolaa iho la oia i kona poe hoaai.
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of the Lord's sacrifice, that I will take vengeance on the princes, and on the king's house, and upon all that wear strange apparel.
A i ka la o ko Iehova mohai ana, E hoopai auanei au i na alii a me na keiki a ke alii, A me ka poe a pau i aahuia i na kapa e.
9 And I will openly take vengeance on the porches in that day, [on the men] that fill the house of the Lord their God with ungodliness and deceit.
Ia la no, e hoopai au i ka poe a pau e lele ana maluna o ka paepae puka, A e hoopiha i ka hale o ko lakou haku i na mea i hao wale ia a me ka hoopunipuni.
10 And there shall be in that day, says the Lord, the sound of a cry from the gate of men slaying, and a howling from the second [gate], and a great crashing from the hills.
A ia la no, wahi a Iehova, He leo no ka uwe ana mai ka puka-ia mai, A he aoa ana mai ka apana alua mai, A me ka luku nui ana mai na puu mai.
11 Lament, you that inhabit the [city] that has been broken down, for all the people has become like Chanaan; and all that were exalted by silver have been utterly destroyed.
E kanikau oukou, e na kanaka o Maketesa; No ka mea, ua hookiia ae na kanaka kuai a pau; O ka poe a pau i kaumaha i ke kala, ua okiia.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will search Jerusalem with a candle, and will take vengeance on the men that despise the things committed to them; but they say in their hearts, The Lord will not do any good, neither will he do any evil.
Ia manawa no, e huli iho no wau ia Ierusalema me na kukui, A e hoopai i ka poe e noho paakiki ana maluna o ko lakou maku; E olelo ana iloko o ko lakou naau, Aole e hana mai ana o Iehova i ka maikai, aole hoi e hana ia i ka ino.
13 And their power shall be for a spoil, and their houses for utter desolation; and they shall build houses, but shall not dwell in them; and they shall plant vineyards, but shall not drink the wine of them.
Nolaila, e lilo auanei ko lakou waiwai i pio, A me na hale o lakou i neoneo: E kapili lakou i na hale, aole hoi e noho iloko; E kanu lakou i na malawaina, aole hoi e inu i ka waina olaila.
14 For the great day of the Lord [is] near, [it is] near, and very speedy; the sound of the day of the Lord is made bitter and harsh.
Ua kokoke mai ka la nui o Iehova, ua kokoke mai, A e wikiwiki loa mai ana ka leo no ka la o Iehova: Ilaila e uwe nui ai ke kanaka ikaika.
15 A mighty day of wrath is that day, a day of affliction and distress, a day of desolation and destruction, a day of gloominess and darkness, a day of cloud and vapor,
He la no ka inaina ua la la, He la popilikia a me ka poino, He la e hao wale ia'i a me ka hooneoneo, He la pouli wale a me ka poeleele, He la e uhi mai ai na ao a me ka pouli paapu,
16 a day of the trumpet and cry against the strong cities, and against the high towers.
He la o ka pu kani a me ka hookani ana, E ku e i na kulanakauhale i puni i ka pa, a me na halekiai kiekie.
17 And I will greatly afflict the men, and they shall walk as blind men, because they have sinned against the Lord; therefore he shall pour out their blood as dust, and their flesh as dung.
A e hoopilikia no wau i na kanaka, I hele ai lakou e like me na makapo, No ka mea, ua hana hewa aku lakou ia Iehova; A e nininiia aku ko lakou koko e like me ka lepo, A o ko lakou io e like me ka opala.
18 And their silver and their gold shall in nowise be able to rescue them in the day of the Lord's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealously; for he will bring a speedy destruction on all them that inhabit the land.
Aole hoi e hiki i ka lakou kala, Aole hoi i ka lakou gula ke hoopakele ia lakou i ka la o ko Iehova inaina; Aka, e pau auanei ka aina a pau i ke ahi o kona lili ana; No ka mea e hoopau koke ana oia i ka poe a pau e noho ana ma ka aina.
