< Zephaniah 1 >

1 This is the word of Yahweh that came to Zephaniah son of Cushi son of Gedaliah son of Amariah son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah son of Amon, king of Judah.
Ra Anumzamo'a ama nanekema Zefanaiama ami'neana, Amoni nemofo Josia'ma Juda vahe kinima mani'nea knafi ami'ne. Hagi Zefanaia nefa'a Kusiki, Kusi nefa'a Gedaliaki, Gedalia nefa'a Amariaki, Amaria nefa'a Hezekaia'e.
2 “I will utterly destroy everything from off the surface of the earth—this is Yahweh's declaration.
Nagra ama mopamofo agofetu'ma me'nea zantamina maka eri harafi hutregahue huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
3 I will destroy man and beast; I will destroy the birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, the ruins along with the wicked. For I will cut off man from the surface of the earth—this is Yahweh's declaration.
Maka vahe'ene zagagafanena ruharafi hutre vaganere'na, anamifima hare'za vanoma nehaza namaramine, hagerimpi nozameraminena ruharafi hutre vagaregahue. Havi avu'ava zama nehaza vahera zamahe vagarete'na magopi zmamavufga'a erinte hihi hanuge'za tetemukna nehanagena, ama mopamofo agofetutira maka vahera zamahe vagaregahue huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
4 I will reach out with my hand over Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off every remnant of Baal from this place and the names of the idolatrous people among the priests,
Juda mopafima nemaniza vahete'ene Jerusalemi ran kumapima nemaniza vahetera nazana rusute'na zamazeri haviza hugahue. Bali havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentaza vahe'ma, ama ana mopa'afima osi'ama manisazama'a maka zamahe vaganere'na, ana havi anumzaraminte'ma pristi eri'zama e'neriza vahe'enena zamahe vagarenugeno zamagia omanegahie.
5 the people who on the housetops worship the heavenly bodies, and the people who worship and swear to Yahweh but who also swear by their king.
Ana vahe'mo'za nozamimofo agofetu mareri'za mani'ne'za, zagere'ene ikante'ene ofuraminte'ene zamarena re'za monora hunezamantaze. Zamagra Ra Anumzamofo amage nentone nehu'za, Moleki havi anumzante monora nehaze.
6 I will also cut off those who have turned away from following Yahweh, those who neither seek Yahweh nor ask for his guidance.”
Ko'ma Ra Anumzamo'na namage'ma antete'za natre'naza vahe'mo'za, kegavama hunezamante'na asomuma huzmante'sanugura nantahia nonkaze.
7 Be silent before the Lord Yahweh! For the day of Yahweh is near; Yahweh has prepared the sacrifice and set apart his guests.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma vahe'ma refko hunezamanteno keagama huzmantesania knamo'a hago kofta nehianki, Agri avurera keaga osu akoheta emaniho. Zgagafama aheno kresramnama viaza huno Ra Anumzamo'a, Agra vahe'a zamahenaku trotra nehie. Ana nehuno zamagri'ma zamazeri havizama hanaza vahera ko zamagi hu'ne.
8 “It will come about on the day of Yahweh's sacrifice, that I will punish the princes and the king's sons, and everyone dressed in foreign clothes.
Ra Anumzamo'a huno, anama zamahe'nua kna knazupa, Juda vahe'mofo kva vahetamine, kini vahe'mokizmi mofavre naga'ene, ru vahe'mokizmi zamavu'zamavama nevaririza vahe'enena knazana zamina zamazeri haviza hugahue.
9 On that day I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, those who fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
Megi'a vahe'mokizmi havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentaza vahe'ene vahe'mokizmi fenozama zamahe'za nehanare'za, havigema hu'za fenozama eri'za kva ne' zamimofo nompima eme nentaza vahe'enena ana zupa zamazeri haviza hugahue.
10 So it will be on that day—this is Yahweh's declaration— that a cry of distress will come from the Fish Gate, wailing from the Second District, and a great crashing sound from the hills.
Ra Anumzamo'a huno ana zupa, ran kumamofona nozame kafanteti mago ran krafage hugahie. Ana hanigeno zamasunku'ma huza zavi'ma atesaza krafagemo'a ran kumapina vuno eno hugahie. Ana'ma nehanigeno'a agonaramimpintira ra agasasa neranigeta antahigahaze.
11 Wail, inhabitants of the Market District, for all the merchants will be ruined; all those who weigh out silver will be cut off.
Maketi kumapima mani'naza vahe'mota tamazana kofita zaviteho. Na'ankure maka zama zagore'ma eme netraza vahe'ene zagoma rezahe'ma nehaza vahe'enena fanane hugahaze.
12 It will come about at that time that I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish the men who have settled into their wine and say in their heart, 'Yahweh will not do anything, either good or evil.'
Ana knafina Jerusalemi kumapima hanima hu'nea ma'afima mani'nezama kumi avu'ava'ma nehu'za, oku'a nehune hu'za nehu'za zamagrama antahi'zana, Ra Anumzamo'a mago knare zano mago havizana osugahie hu'za nehaza vahe'mokizmia, ramu tavi'ni'a tagina hakre'na zamazeri haviza hugahue.
13 Their wealth will become plunder, and their houses will be an abandoned devastation! They will build houses but not live in them, and plant vineyards but not drink their wine.
Zamagri fenozana vahe'mo'za eme agu'za neru'za, nozamia tapage hutregahaze. Ana hanage'za nozamia kasefa kigahazanagi, ana nontamimpina omasegahaze. Waini hoza antegahazanagi, raga'a tagi'za tima'a onegahaze.
14 The great day of Yahweh is near, near and hurrying quickly! The sound of the day of Yahweh will be that of a warrior crying bitterly!
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma vahe'ma keaga hunezamanteno refko'ma huzmantesania knamo'a hago kofta nehiankino, ame huno ana knamo'a efore hugahie. Ana knama efore'ma hania knazupa, hankave sondia vahe'mo'za tusi zavi krafa hugahaze.
15 That day will be a day of fury, a day of distress and anguish, a day of storm and devastation, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness.
E'i ana kna Anumzamofo arimpa ahekna efore hugahiankino, vahe'mo'a hazenkezampi manino nomaniza mani so'ea nosanigeno, tusi'a hazenkeza fore hina maka zamo'a havizantfa nehanigeno, hanima haniana tusi hani huno rentrako hugahie. Ana nehanigeno hampomo'a kintrako hanigeno hanintiri hugahie.
16 It will be a day of trumpets and alarms against the fortified cities and the high battlements.
Ana knafina ufe krafamo'a tusiza nehanigeno, sondia vahe'mo'za ibimo agazamo nehu'za erintagu hu'za hankave vihu kegina me'negeno, kuma kegava nehaza za'za nontamima me'nea ranra kumatamintega vugahaze.
17 For I will bring distress upon mankind, so that they will walk about like blind men since they have sinned against Yahweh. Their blood will be poured out like dust, and their inner parts like dung.
Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagri navufima kumi'ma hu'nazagu hu'na hazenke zana atrenugeno eno eme tamazeri haviza hanigeta, zamavu suhu vahe'mo'zama nehazaza huta rege'rege huta vano hugahaze. Tamagri koramo'a kugusopafi tagi neramisanigeno, tamavufgamo'a mopafi me'neno kasrino rifagna huno hi'mna vugahie.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the day of Yahweh's fury. In the fire of his jealousy the whole earth will be consumed, for he will bring a complete, a terrible end of all the inhabitants of the earth.”
Ra Anumzamofo arimpa ahe' zamo'ma esania knazupa, silvane golinema ante'naza zamo'a tamagura ovazigahie. Na'ankure Anumzamofo arimpa ahe'zamo'a, tevegna huno ama mopa teno erihana hugahie. Tamagerfa huno, maka ama mopafima nemaniza vahe'mo'za, antri hanazaza huno zamahe vagaregahie.
