Zephaniah 3
1 Wo! thou citee, terrere to wraththe, and bouyt ayen a culuer.
Mano kaka inine malit in dala maduongʼ ma jasand ji, ma toke tek kendo mogak.
2 It herde not the vois of the Lord, and resseyuede not techyng, ether chastisyng; it tristenyde not in the Lord, it neiyide not to her God.
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 Princes therof in myddil therof weren as liouns rorynge; iugis therof weren wolues, in the euentid thei leften not in to morewe.
Jotende gin sibuoche maruto, to ruodhige chalo gi ondiegi mawuotho gotieno, ma ok we gimoro amora miyudi gokinyi.
4 Profetis therof weren woode, vnfeithful men; prestis therof defouliden hooli thing, thei diden vniustli ayens the lawe.
Jonabi mage gin josunga, kendo gin joma wuondore. Jodolo mage njawo kama ler mar lemo, kendo giketho chik.
5 The Lord iust in the myddil therof, schal not do wickidnesse; erli, erli he schal yyue his dom in liyt, and it schal not be hid; forsothe the wickid puple knew not confusioun.
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 Y loste folkis, and the corneris of hem ben distried; Y made the weies of hem desert, while there is not that schal passe. The citees of hem ben desolat, for a man is not left, nether ony dwellere.
“Asengʼado ogendini oko, kuondegi ma gigengʼorego bende asemuko. Yoregi osedongʼ nono, maonge ngʼama wuothoe. Miechgi madongo osekethi; maonge ngʼama nodongʼ kodakie kata achiel.
7 Y seide, Netheles thou schalt drede me, thou schalt resseyue techyng; and the dwellyng place therof schal not perische, for alle thingis in whiche Y visitide it; netheles ful eerli thei risynge han corrupt alle her thouytis.
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 Wherfor abide thou me, seith the Lord, in the dai of my rysyng ayen in to comynge. For my doom is, that Y gadere folkis, and Y schal gadere rewmes; and Y schal schede out on hem myn indignacioun, and al wraththe of my strong veniaunce; for in fier of my feruour al erthe schal be deuourid.
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 thanne Y schal yelde to puplis a chosun lippe, that alle clepe inwardli in the name of the Lord, and serue to hym with o schuldre.
“Bangʼe anapwodh dho oganda mondo giduto giluong nying Jehova Nyasaye, kendo gitine gi chuny achiel.
10 Ouer the floodis of Ethiopie, fro thens my bisecheris, the sones of my scaterid men, schulen brynge yifte to me.
Joga malama kendo moke e pinje loka aore mag Kush, nobi kakelona mich.
11 In that day thou schalt not be confoundid on alle thi fyndyngis, in whiche thou trespassidist ayens me; for thanne Y schal take awei fro the myddil of thee grete spekeris of thi pride, and thou schalt no more put to, for to be enhaunsid in myn hooli hil.
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 Y schal leeue in the myddil of thee a pore puple and nedi; and thei schulen hope in the name of the Lord.
To anawe joma muol e dieru kendo ma obolore, ma gin jogo ma oyie kuom nying Jehova Nyasaye.
13 The relifs of Israel schulen not do wickidnesse, nether schulen speke leesyng, and a gileful tunge schal not be foundun in the mouth of hem; for thei schulen be fed, and schulen reste, and ther schal not be that schal make aferd.
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 These thingis seith the Lord, Douyter of Sion, herie thou hertli, synge thou, Israel; be thou glad, and make thou ioie withoutforth in al thin herte, thou douyter of Jerusalem.
Wer, yaye nyar Sayun, go koko matek, yaye Israel! Bed mamor kendo moil gi chunyi duto, yaye nyar Jerusalem!
15 The Lord hath take a wei thi dom, hath turned a wey thin enemyes; the kyng of Israel the Lord is in myddil of thee, thou schalt no more drede yuel.
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 In that dai it schal be seid, Jerusalem, nyle thou drede; Sion, thin hondis be not clumsid.
Odiechiengʼno ji nowach ni Jerusalem niya, “Kik iluor, yaye Sayun, kik iwe badi obed mobengni.
17 Thi Lord God is strong in the myddil of thee, he schal saue; he schal make ioie on thee in gladnesse, he schal be stille in thi louyng, he schal make ioie withoutforth on thee in heriyng.
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 Y schal gadere the foolis, ether veyn men, that wenten awei fro the lawe, for thei weren of thee, that thou haue no more schenschipe on hem.
“Abiro golo kuomi masiche mane ochan ni biro timore kuomi e kinde mag sewni moyier, nikech gisebedo tingʼ mapek kuomi kendo gisemiyi wichkuot.
19 Lo! Y schal sle alle men that turmentiden thee in that tyme, and Y schal saue him that haltith, and Y schal gadere hir that was cast out; and Y schal putte hem in to heriyng, and in to name in ech lond of confusioun of hem, in that tyme in which Y schal brynge you,
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.
20 and in the tyme in which Y schal gadre you. For Y schal yyue you in to name, and in to heriyng to alle puplis of erthe, whanne Y schal conuerte youre caitifte bifore youre iyen, seith the Lord.
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.
