< Zephaniah 3 >

1 Woe [to] the rebelling and defiling, The oppressing city!
Waxaa iska hoogtay magaalada caasiyowday oo nijaasowday oo wax dulunta!
2 She has not listened to the voice, She has not accepted instruction, In YHWH she has not trusted, She has not drawn near to her God.
Iyadu codkii ma ay addeecin, oo edbintiina ma ay aqbalin, oo Rabbiga iskuma ay hallayn, oo Ilaahna kuma ay soo dhowaan.
3 Her heads in her midst [are] roaring lions, Her judges [are] wolves [as in] evening, They have not gnawn the bone in the morning.
Amiirradeeda iyada dhex jooga waa sida libaaxyo ciyaya, xaakinnadeeduna waa sida yeey habeennimo oo aan waxba tan iyo aroortii reebin.
4 Her prophets unstable—men of treachery, Her priests have defiled the sanctuary, They have violated the Law.
Nebiyadeedu waa kuwo fudud oo khiyaano badan, oo wadaaddadeediina meeshii quduuska ahayd ayay nijaaseeyeen, oo sharcigiina si xun bay u dhaafeen.
5 YHWH [is] righteous in her midst, He does not do perverseness, Morning by morning His judgment He gives to the light, It has not been lacking, And the perverse do not know shame.
Rabbiga dhexdeeda jooga waa xaq, oo innaba xumaan ma samayn doono, oo caddaaladdiisana aroor kastaba wuu soo saaraa, oo marnaba kama baaqdo, laakiinse caddaaladlaawuhu isma ceebsan yaqaan.
6 “I have cut off nations, Desolated have been their chief ones, I have laid waste their out-places without any passing by, Destroyed have been their cities, Without man, without inhabitant.
Anigu quruumo ayaan baabbi'iyey, oo qalcadahoodiina waa baabba', oo jidadkoodiina cidla baan ka dhigay si aan ciduna u marin, oo magaalooyinkoodiina waa la dumiyey, si aan qofna u joogin oo aan cid keliyuhuna u degganaan.
7 I have said: Only, you fear Me, You accept instruction, And her habitation is not cut off, All that I have appointed for her, But they have risen early, They have corrupted all their doings.
Waxaan idhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah waad iga cabsan doontaa, oo edbin baad aqbali doontaa. Markaas hoygeedu uma uu baabbe'een sidii aan iyada u goostay. Laakiinse aroor horay keceen oo falimahoodii oo dhan way xumeeyeen.
8 Therefore, wait for Me,” A declaration of YHWH, “For the day of My rising for prey, For My judgment [is] to gather nations, To assemble kingdoms, To pour out on them My indignation, All the heat of My anger, For by the fire of My jealousy all the earth is consumed.
Haddaba i suga, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay, ilaa maalinta aan ugaadhsade u soo kici doono, waayo, waxaan ku talajiraa inaan quruumaha isu soo ururiyo oo aan boqortooyooyinka isu soo shiriyo, si aan korkooda ugu shubo dhirifkayga iyo xataa xanaaqayga kulul oo dhan, waayo, dhulka oo dhan waxaa baabbi'in doona dabka qiiradayda.
9 For then I turn a pure lip to peoples, To call all of them by the Name of YHWH, To serve Him [with] one shoulder.
Waayo, markaas ayaan dadyowga siin doonaa af daahir ah, si ay kulligood magaca Rabbiga ugu yeedhaan, oo ay isaga ugu adeegaan isku niyad keliya.
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush, My supplicants, The daughter of My scattered ones, Bring My present.
Kuwa i barya oo ah dadkayga firidhsan waxay webiyaasha Itoobiya shishadooda ka keeni doonaan qurbaankayga.
11 In that day you are not ashamed because of any of your actions, With which you have transgressed against Me, For then I turn aside from your midst The exulting ones of your excellence, And you are to be haughty no longer, In My holy mountain.
Wakhtigaas uma aad ceeboobi doontid falimahaaga oo dhan, kuwaas oo aad igaga xadgudubtay, waayo, markaas waxaan dhexdaada ka bixin doonaa kuwaaga kibray oo isfaaninaya, oo adna mar dambe ku madax weynaan maysid buurtayda quduuska ah.
12 And I have left in your midst a people humble and poor, And they have trusted in the Name of YHWH.
Laakiinse dhexdaada waxaan uga tegi doonaa dad dhibaataysan oo masaakiin ah, oo iyana magaca Rabbiga ayay isku hallayn doonaan.
13 The remnant of Israel does no perversity, nor speaks lies, Nor is a deceitful tongue found in their mouth, For they have delight, and have lain down, And there is none troubling.”
Kuwa reer binu Israa'iil ka hadhay xumaan ma samayn doonaan, beenna ma sheegi doonaan, oo afkoodana innaba carrab khiyaano badan lagama heli doono, waayo, iyagu wax bay quudan doonaan oo way iska jiifsan doonaan, oo waxba iyaga ma cabsiin doonaan.
14 Cry aloud, O daughter of Zion, shout, O Israel, Rejoice and exult with the whole heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
Magaalada Siyoonay, gabay, reer binu Israa'iilow, qayliya, Magaalada Yeruusaalemay, farax oo qalbiga oo dhan ku reyree.
15 YHWH has turned aside your judgments, He has faced your enemy, The King of Israel, YHWH, [is] in your midst, You see evil no more.
Rabbigu wuxuu qaaday xukummadaadii, oo cadowgaagiina wuu tuuray. Boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil oo Rabbiga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, oo mar dambe shar ka baqi maysid.
16 In that day it is said to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, O Zion, Do not let your hands be feeble.
Wakhtigaas waxaa Yeruusaalem lagu odhan doonaa, Ha cabsan, Siyoonay, yaan gacmahaagu debcin.
17 Your God YHWH [is] in your midst, A mighty one [to] save, He rejoices over you with joy, He works in His love, He delights over you with singing.”
Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, isagu waa mid xoog badan oo ku badbaadin doona. Farxad buu kuugu rayrayn doonaa, oo wuxuu ku nasan doonaa jacaylkiisa, oo gabay buu kuugu farxi doonaa.
18 “I have gathered My afflicted from the appointed place, They have been bearing reproach from you for her sake.
Waxaan soo ururin doonaa kuwaagii laga masaafuriyey oo haatan u murugaysan shirka quduuska ah, kuwaasoo culaabta kor saaranu ay cay ahayd.
19 Behold, I am dealing with all afflicting you at that time, And I have saved the halting one, And I gather the ones driven out, And have set them for a praise and for a name, In all the land of their shame.
Bal eeg, wakhtigaas anigaa la macaamiloon doona kuwa ku dhiba oo dhan, oo waan badbaadin doonaa kuwa dhutiya, oo kuwii la eryayna waan soo ururin doonaa, oo kuwii ceebtoodu ay wada gaadhay dhulka oo dhan ayaan u yeeli doonaa ammaan iyo magac.
20 At that time I bring you in, Even at the time of My assembling you, For I give you for a name, and for a praise, Among all peoples of the land, In My turning back [to] your captivity before your eyes,” said YHWH!
Oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo gelin doonaa gudaha, oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo ururin doonaa, waayo, dadyowga dunida jooga oo dhan waxaan idiinku dhex yeeli doonaa magac iyo ammaan, markaan maxaabiistiinnii oo dhan hortiinna ku soo celiyo, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
