< Joel 1 >

1 This is the word of Yahweh that came to Joel son of Pethuel.
Goe sia: dedei amo da Hina Gode Ea Youelema olelei amo dedei. Youele da Bidiuele ea mano.
2 Hear this, you elders, and listen, all you inhabitants of the land. Has anything like this happened in your days or in the days of your ancestors?
Dilia noga: le dawa: ma! Fada: i dunu dilia dunu huluane Yuda soge ganodini esalebe dilia nabima. Dilia da goe hou doaga: be da ba: ila: ? Dili goi hadi agoai esaloba amola dilia ada ilia da goe hou hamobe ba: bela: ?
3 Tell your children about it, and let your children tell their children, and their children the next generation.
Dilia manoma amo sia: olelema. Amola ilia da ilia manoma olelemu, amalu ilia da ilia mano fisa mabe ilima olelemu.
4 What the swarming locust has left the great locust has eaten; what the great locust has left the grasshopper has eaten; and what the grasshopper has left the caterpillar has eaten.
Danuba: gilisi agoane misini, ha: i manu sagai amo ea lubi na dagoi amola goe danuba: ilia fisili ahoasea, bu danuba: eno maha amola, ilia da ha: i manu sagai lubi amo na ebelesa.
5 Wake up, you drunkards, and weep! Wail, all you drinkers of wine, because the sweet wine has been cut off from you.
Gola midi dilia wa: legadole didigia: ma, Waini hano nawane feloai dunu dilia amola dima. Waini efe fage amo da gaheabolo waini hano hamoma: ne ilegei Da gugunufinisi dagoi.
6 For a nation has come up upon my land, strong and without number. His teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the teeth of a lioness.
Danuba: ilia da gegesu dunu wa: i bagade agoai, ilia da ninia soge amoma gegemusa: ahoa. Ilia da gasa bagade amola ili idimu da hamedeidafa. Ilia bese da laione wa: me ea bese sosoa: i amola mei agoai diala.
7 He has made my vineyard into a desolate place and has stripped my fig tree bare. He has stripped its bark and thrown it away; the branches are bare white.
Ilia da ninia waini fage legesu efe amo wadela: lesi amola figi dulu amo na ebelei. Ilia da ifa gadofo sosoga: i dagoi amola amoda da soa: ya: i agoane afadenei.
8 Mourn like a virgin dressed in sackcloth for the death of her young husband.
Dunu fi dilia huluane didigia: ma, dilia musa: uda a: fini laloba didigia: su amo dunu bogoloba didigia: su agoane.
9 The grain offering and the drink offering have been cut off from Yahweh's house. The priests, Yahweh's servants, mourn.
Debolo diasu ganodini ilia gagoma amola waini da Hina Godema imunu da hamedafa. Gobele Salasu dunu ilia da bagade da: i dioi. Abuliba: le? Bai gobele salasu liligi Hina Godema imunu da hame gala.
10 The fields are ruined, the ground is mourning because the grain has been destroyed. The new wine has dried up, the oil fails.
Ifabi ganodini da ha: i manu afaedafa da hame ba: sa. Amola osobo da wadela: lesi dagoi amola waini efe da huluane biogia: i ba: i, amola olife ifa huluane da biole wadela: lesi dagoi.
11 Be ashamed, you farmers, and wail, you vine growers, for the wheat and the barley. For the harvest of the fields has perished.
Ifabi ouligisu dunu! Dilia waini sagai ganodini hawa: hamosu dunu! Dilia figi sagai ganodini hawa: hamosu dunu huluane! Dilia huluane bagade asigili didigia: ma. Bai widi amola bali amola ha: i manu bugi huluanedafa da wadela: lesi dagoi.
12 The vines have withered and the fig trees have dried up, the pomegranate trees, also the palm trees, and the apple trees— all the trees of the field have withered. For joy has withered away from the descendants of mankind.
Ha: i manu ida: iwane legesu ifa, figi amola waini efe huluane da biogia: i, amaiba: le dunu fi ilia da da: i dioi bagade ba: sa.
13 Put on sackcloth and mourn, you priests! Wail, you servants of the altar. Come, lie all night in sackcloth, you servants of my God. For the grain offering and the drink offering have been withheld from the house of your God.
Gobele Salasu dunu dilia da oloda amoga hawa: hamonana! Dilia abula gisa: le amola wadela: i eboboi abula salawane dini ima. Gasi ganodini dilia Debolo diasu ganodini didigia: sa esala hadigima. Bai gala: ine amola waini hano Godema ima: ne da hame gala.
14 Call for a holy fast, and call a holy assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of Yahweh your God, and cry to Yahweh.
Dilia dunu fi ilima ha: i hame nasu hou hamoma: ne sia: ma amola dunu huluanema gilisimusa: sia: ma. Ouligisu dunu huluane amola Yuda fi dunu ilia huluane Debolo diasu ganodini gagadoma. Amasea, Hina Godema wele sia: ma!
15 Alas for the day! For the day of Yahweh is almost here. With it will come destruction from the Almighty.
Hina Gode Ea Eso da gadeneidafa. Amo esoga Hina Gode Gasa Bagadedafa, se bagade gaguli misunu, amola beda: i bagadewane ba: mu.
16 Has not food been cut off from before our eyes, and joy and gladness from the house of our God?
Ninia ba: loba da ha: i manu huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu, amola Godema hahawane gilisisu hou Debolo ganodini da hamedafa gala.
17 The seeds rot under their clods, the granaries are desolate, and the barns have been broken down, for the grain has withered.
Fage amo osobo hafoga: i ganodini amo da dasagia: i. Amola fage da afae agoane hamedafa amola hawa: legesu diasu ganodini da hamedafa gala. Gala: ine ha: i manu legesu diasu da hagia: i diala amola huluane dasagia: i dagoi.
18 How the animals groan! The herds of cattle are suffering because they have no pasture. Also, the flocks of sheep suffer.
Bulamagau ea ha: i nasu gisi da hamedafa amola ili da ha: giwane ga: ea gusa: sa. Amola sibi ilia da ha: i manu hameba: le, ilia da: i da geloga: gia: iba: le se naba.
19 Yahweh, I cry to you. For fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and flames have burned all the trees of the fields.
Hina Gode, na Dima dini iawane, Dima sia: ne gadosa! Bai ha: i manu da huluane biogia: i dagoi. Amola ifa amola gisi amola ha: i manu huluane da laluga nei agoai ba: sa.
20 Even the animals of the fields pant for you, for the water brooks have dried up, and fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
Amolawane, ohe fi ilia da ha: ga Dima dini iaha. Bai hano huluane da hale dagoi.
