< Zephaniah 1 >

1 The word of the Lord which came unto Zephanyah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedalyah, the son of Amaryah, the son of Chizkiyah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon the king of Judah.
Eso amoga hina bagade Yousaia (A: mone ea mano) da Yuda soge ouligisu, amo esoha Hina Gode da Sefanaiama sia: ne i. (Sefanaia da Giusai amalu Gedalaia amalu A: malaia amalu hina bagade Hesigaia amo ilia egaga fi dunu esalu.)
2 I will remove, utterly remove all things from off the face of the earth, saith the Lord.
Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Na da osobo bagadega esalebe liligi huluane gugunufinisisimu.
3 I will remove man and beast; I will remove the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling blocks together with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the face of the earth, saith the Lord.
Na da dunu fi huluane, ohe fi, sio amola menabo huluane wadela: lesimu. Wadela: i hamosu dunu huluane dafama: ne, Na da wadela: lesimu. Na da dunu fi huluane wadela: lesisia, dunu afae esalebe da hame ba: mu. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.
4 And I will stretch out my hand over Judah, and over all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Ba'al from this place, the name of his ministers with his priests;
Na da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade fi amola Yuda soge fi huluane ilima se bagade imunu. Na da ilia Ba: ilema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou huluane gugunufinisimudafa. Amasea, dunu huluane da Na hou hame lalegagui gobele salasu dunu (amo da Ba: ilema hawa: hamosa) amo gogolele, bu hamedafa dawa: mu.
5 And those that bow themselves down on the roofs of houses to the host of heaven; and those that bow themselves down that are sworn [to be true] to the Lord and still swear by Malkom;
Na da nowa dunu da diasu da: iya gado heda: le, eso amola gasumuni amola oubi amoma nodone sia: ne gadosa, amo fi huluane wadela: lesimu. Amola nowa da Nama nodone sia: ne gadosa, amola ilia lafidili Nama molole fa: no bobogemu sia: sa, be gilisili ogogosu ‘gode’ Moulege ea dioba: le sia: sa, amo amola Na da wadela: lesimu.
6 And those that are turned away from following the Lord; and those that have not sought for the Lord, and have not inquired of him.
Amola nowa dunu da Nama fa: no bobogelalu bu wadela: i hou amoma sinidigili, amola Nama Na ouligisu amola hou olelesu hame adole ba: sa, amo amola Na da wadela: lesimu,” Hina Gode da amane sia: i.
7 Be silent in the presence of the Lord Eternal; for nigh is the day of the Lord; for the Lord hath prepared a slaughter, he hath bidden his invited guests.
Hina Gode Ea Fofada: su Eso amoga E da osobo bagade fi wadela: lesimu amo da gadenesa. Amaiba: le, dilia huluane Ea midadi ouiya: le esaloma. Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu gobele salasu hou defele, medole legemu. E da ha lai dunu amo Yuda soge liligi huluane gegenana lama: ne hiougi dagoi.
8 And it shall come to pass on the day of the Lord's slaughter, that I will inflict punishment on the princes, and on the king's sons, and on all such as are clothed in garments of a foreign land.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Amo medole legesu esoga, Na da eagene hawa: hamosu dunu, amola hina bagade ea mano, amola nowa da ga fi ilia sia: ne gadosu hou hamonana, amo huluane ilima se imunu.
9 And I will inflict punishment on all those that leap over the threshold on that day, who fill the house of their master with violence and deceit.
Na da nowa dunu da hame lalegagui agoane nodone sia: ne gadosa, amola ilia ouligisu dunu ea diasu wamolai liligi amoga nabama: ne wamolasa amola medole legesa, amo dunu huluane ilima Na da se bagade imunu.
10 And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord, that there shall be a loud cry of lamentation from the fish-gate, and a wailing from the second, and [that of] a great breach from the hills.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Amo esoga dilia da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade Menabo Logo Ga: su amoga dibi sia: bagade nabimu. Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade gaheabolo la: idiga, dilia da didigia: su nabimu. Amola agolo damana agolo agebe ea ga: defele nabimu.
11 Wail, ye inhabitants of the mortar-street, for destroyed are all the trading people; cut off are all that were laden with silver.
Amo nabasea, dilia moilai bai bagade hagudu la: idi esalebe dunu, didiga: ma amola dima! Bai dilia bidi lasu dunu huluane da bogogia: i dagoi.
12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem through with lights; and I will inflict punishment on the men that are at rest on their lees, that say in their heart, The Lord will not do good, nor will he do evil.
Amasea, amo esoga, Na da gamali lale, Yelusaleme ganodini hogomu. Nowa dunu da hahawane hi hou da defele dawa: lebe, amola ilisu da, ‘Hina Gode da hamedei. E da hawa: hamomu hame dawa: ,’ amane sia: sa, amo huluanema Na da se imunu.
13 And their wealth shall become a booty, and their houses shall be made desolate; and they will build houses, but they shall not inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, but they shall not drink their wine.
Ilia gagui liligi wamolai dagoi ba: mu, amola ilia diasu wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da diasu ili gagubi amoga hamedafa fifi ahoanumu, amola ilia waini efe sagabe amo ea waini hano hamedafa nanamu.”
14 Nigh is the great day of the Lord, it is nigh, and hasteneth greatly, [there is] the noise of the day of the Lord: bitterly crieth there the mighty man.
Hina Gode Ea eso bagade da doaga: mu gadenesa. Amola gadeneidafa amola hedolowane doaga: mu. Amo eso da se nabasu bagadedafa ba: mu. Amola nimi bagade dadi gagui dunu da lobo healeiba: le, didigia: mu.
15 A day of wrath is that day, a day of distress and anxiety, a day of wasting and desolation, a day of darkness and obscurity, a day of clouds and tempestuous gloom,
Amo eso da ougi ha lasu eso, se nabasu amola bidi hamosu eso, wadela: lesisu amola mugulusu eso, amoga da gasi bagade amola alaloyo amola hadigi da bunumai mumobiga dedebomu.
16 A day of the cornet and alarm, against the fenced cities, and against the high battlements.
Amo esoha gegesu ‘dalabede’ wesu bagade nabimu, amola gegesu dunu ilia halasu fawane nabimu. Ilia da moilai bai bagade gagili sali amola diasu sedade gado gagagula heda: i amoma doagala: beba: le, halasu bagade nabimu.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk about like the blind, because against the Lord have they sinned: and their blood shall be poured out like the dust, and their flesh like the dung.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da se nabasu bagadedafa dunu fifi asi gala huluane ilima imunu. Amaiba: le, ilia da si dofoi dunu agoane ahoanumu. Ilia da Nama wadela: le hamoiba: le, ilia maga: me da hano agoane sogadigimu, amola ilia bogogia: le, ilia da: i hodo da udigili osoboga dasagia: ma: ne dialumu.”
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them on the day of the Lord's wrath; through the fire of whose zeal the whole land shall be devoured; for destruction, yea, quite sudden, will he prepare for all the inhabitants of the land.
Amo esoha, Hina Gode da Ea ougi bagade hou olelesea, ilia silifa amola gouli gagui amo da ili hame gaga: mu. Osobo bagade huluane da Gode Ea ougi lalu agoane amoga wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. E da hedolodafa dunu huluane osobo bagade amoga esalebe, amo ilia esalusu dagolesimu.
