Zephaniah 3
1 Woe to! [the] filthy [one] and [the] defiled [one] the city which oppresses.
Mano kaka inine malit in dala maduongʼ ma jasand ji, ma toke tek kendo mogak.
2 Not it has listened to a voice not it has accepted correction in Yahweh not it has trusted to God its not it has drawn near.
Dalani ok winj puonj ngʼato angʼata, kendo ok owinj kata puonj mora amora. Ok ogeno kuom Jehova Nyasaye, bende ok osud machiegni gi Nyasache.
3 Officials its in midst its [are] lions roaring judges its [are] wolves of [the] evening [which] not they gnaw to the morning.
Jotende gin sibuoche maruto, to ruodhige chalo gi ondiegi mawuotho gotieno, ma ok we gimoro amora miyudi gokinyi.
4 Prophets its [are] insolent men of treacheri priests its they profane [the] sanctuary they do violence to [the] law.
Jonabi mage gin josunga, kendo gin joma wuondore. Jodolo mage njawo kama ler mar lemo, kendo giketho chik.
5 Yahweh [is] righteous in midst its not he does injustice in the morning in the morning judgment his he gives to the light not he fails and not [is] knowing an unrighteous person shame.
To Jehova Nyasaye mantie e diergi, to en ngʼat makare, ok otim gimoro amora marach. Okinyi ka okinyi to ongʼado bura gi adier, kendo odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ ok rem, to kata kamano, jaricho to onge wichkuot.
6 I have cut off nations they are desolate corners their I have made desolate streets their because not [one who] passes by they have been laid waste cities their because not anyone from not inhabitant.
“Asengʼado ogendini oko, kuondegi ma gigengʼorego bende asemuko. Yoregi osedongʼ nono, maonge ngʼama wuothoe. Miechgi madongo osekethi; maonge ngʼama nodongʼ kodakie kata achiel.
7 I said surely you will fear me you will accept correction and not it will be cut off dwelling its all that I have visited on it nevertheless they rose early they corrupted all practices their.
Ne awachone dala maduongʼ niya, ‘Adier ibiro luora, kendo ibiro yie gi puonjna!’ Ka itimo kamano, to kar dakni ok nongʼad oko, kendo ok anakume. Kata kamano, ne pod gi timo sinani mar timo gik maricho.”
8 Therefore wait for me [the] utterance of Yahweh for [the] day to arise I for booty for judgment my [is] to gather nations to assemble I kingdoms to pour out on them indignation my all [the] burning of anger my for in [the] fire of jealousy my it will be consumed all the earth.
Kuom mano, Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Emomiyo koro rita, nyaka ndalo ma anangʼadnie bura. Asechano mondo achok ogendini gi pinjeruodhi, mondo aol mirimba kuomgi, ma en mirimba mager. Piny ngima ibiro wangʼo gi mach mar mirimba mager.
9 For then I will restore to peoples a lip purified to call all of them on [the] name of Yahweh to serve him a shoulder one.
“Bangʼe anapwodh dho oganda mondo giduto giluong nying Jehova Nyasaye, kendo gitine gi chuny achiel.
10 From [the] other side of [the] rivers of Cush worshippers my [the] daughter of (scattered [ones] my *L(abh)*) they will bring! offering my.
Joga malama kendo moke e pinje loka aore mag Kush, nobi kakelona mich.
11 On the day that not you will be ashamed from all practices your which you have transgressed against me for then - I will remove from midst your [the] exultant [ones] of pride your and not you will repeat to be haughty again on [the] mountain of holiness my.
E odiechiengʼno ok inichak ine wichkuot kaluwore gi timbe maricho mane itimona, nikech abiro golo josunga mamor gi sungagi e dala maduongʼni. Ok inichak isungri kendo, e goda maler.
12 And I will leave in midst your a people afflicted and poor and they will take refuge in [the] name of Yahweh.
To anawe joma muol e dieru kendo ma obolore, ma gin jogo ma oyie kuom nying Jehova Nyasaye.
13 [the] remnant of Israel not they will do injustice and not they will speak falsehood and not it will be found in mouth their a tongue of deceitfulness for they they will graze and they will lie down and there not [will be one who] disturbs [them].
Jo-Israel modongʼ ok notim gima rach, ok giniriambi, bende miriambo ok nowuog e dhogi. Gibiro chiemo kendo nindo maonge ngʼama nomi gibed maluor.”
14 Shout for joy O daughter of Zion shout O Israel rejoice and exult with all [the] heart O daughter of Jerusalem.
Wer, yaye nyar Sayun, go koko matek, yaye Israel! Bed mamor kendo moil gi chunyi duto, yaye nyar Jerusalem!
15 He has removed Yahweh judgments your he has cleared away enemy your [the] king of Israel - Yahweh [is] in midst your not (you will fear *L(V)*) evil again.
Jehova Nyasaye osegolo kuomi kum mosekumigo bende oseriembo wasika. Jehova Nyasaye, ma en Ruodh jo-Israel ni kodi ok inichak iluor gimoro amora manyalo hinyi.
16 On the day that it will be said to Jerusalem may not you be afraid O Zion may not they drop hands your.
Odiechiengʼno ji nowach ni Jerusalem niya, “Kik iluor, yaye Sayun, kik iwe badi obed mobengni.

Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ni kodi, en gi teko mar reso ji. Obiro bedo gi mor maduongʼ kuomi, kendo obiro kweyo chunyi gi herane, bende obiro wer ka omor gi ilo kuomi.”
18 [those] grieved From an appointed feast I will gather from you they were tribute on it reproach.
“Abiro golo kuomi masiche mane ochan ni biro timore kuomi e kinde mag sewni moyier, nikech gisebedo tingʼ mapek kuomi kendo gisemiyi wichkuot.

E kindeno anakum jogo mane osandi, anakony rongʼonde kendo anachok joga mane oke e pinje. Abiro miyogi pak gi huma e piny ka piny mane okuodie wigi.

E kindeno abiro choki, e ndalono anakeli dala. Abiro miyi pak gi huma, e kind ogendini manie piny mangima, ka adwokoni gweth mane agwedhigo chon mana ka ineno,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
