< Sofoni 2 >
1 Rasanble nou ansanm, wi rasanble nou, O nasyon ki pa gen wont,
to assemble and to assemble [the] nation not to long
2 avan dekrè a vini— avan jou pase tankou pay vannen —avan chalè vyolan SENYÈ a vin rive sou nou, avan jou a kòlè SENYÈ a vin rive sou nou.
in/on/with before to beget statute: decree like/as chaff to pass day in/on/with before not to come (in): come upon you burning anger face: anger LORD in/on/with before not to come (in): come upon you day face: anger LORD
3 Chache SENYÈ a, nou tout ki enb sou tè a, ki te kenbe òdonans li yo. Chache ladwati. Chache imilite. Petèt nou va jwenn pwoteksyon nan jou kòlè SENYÈ a.
to seek [obj] LORD all poor [the] land: country/planet which justice his to work to seek righteousness to seek humility perhaps to hide in/on/with day face: anger LORD
4 Paske Gaza va vin abandone, e Askalon va vin yon kote dezole. Asdod va chase mete deyò nan mitan jounen, e Ékron va vin dechouke.
for Gaza to leave: forsake to be and Ashkelon to/for devastation Ashdod in/on/with midday to drive out: drive out her and Ekron to uproot
5 Malè pou sila ki rete kote lanmè yo, nasyon a Keretyen yo! Pawòl SENYÈ a kont ou, O Canaran, peyi Filisten yo! Mwen va detwi nou jiskaske pa gen moun ki rete la ankò.
woe! to dwell cord [the] sea nation Cherethite word LORD upon you Canaan land: country/planet Philistine and to perish you from nothing to dwell
6 Konsa bò kot lanmè a va tounen patiraj pou bèt, avèk kay pou bèje e pak pou bann mouton yo.
and to be cord [the] sea pasture hollow to pasture and wall flock
7 Epi kot lanmè a va apatyen a retay lakay Juda a. Yo va fè patiraj yo sou li. Nan kay Askalon yo, yo va kouche nan aswè; paske SENYÈ Bondye yo a va pran swen yo e restore davni yo.
and to be cord to/for remnant house: household Judah upon them to pasture [emph?] in/on/with house: home Ashkelon in/on/with evening to stretch [emph?] for to reckon: visit them LORD God their and to return: rescue (captivity their *Q(k)*)
8 Mwen te tande lè Moab t ap vekse nou. Ak malediksyon a fis Ammon yo, ke yo t ap vekse pèp Mwen an, e te fè tèt yo vin plen ògèy kont lizyè pa yo a.
to hear: hear reproach Moab and reviling son: descendant/people Ammon which to taunt [obj] people my and to magnify upon border: area their
9 Akoz sa, jan Mwen vivan an, deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo, Bondye Israël la, “Anverite, Moab va vin tankou Sodome e fis a Ammon yo tankou Gomorrhe— yon kote plen pikan, yon twou plen sèl, yon kote devaste nèt. Retay a pèp Mwen an va piyaje yo, e sila ki rete nan nasyon Mwen an, va eritye yo.”
to/for so alive I utterance LORD Hosts God Israel for Moab like/as Sodom to be and son: descendant/people Ammon like/as Gomorrah possession nettle and pit salt and devastation till forever: enduring remnant people my to plunder them and remainder (nation my *Q(K)*) to inherit them
10 Se sa yo va twouve kon rekonpans ògèy yo, akoz yo te vekse, e te vin awogan kont pèp a SENYÈ dèzame yo.
this to/for them underneath: instead pride their for to taunt and to magnify upon people LORD Hosts
11 SENYÈ a va vin tèrib pou yo, paske Li va fè tout dye teritwa yo mouri ak grangou. Konsa, tout moun, depi nan nasyon yo va adore Li, yo chak nan pwòp plas yo.
to fear: revere LORD upon them for to starve [obj] all God [the] land: country/planet and to bow to/for him man: anyone from place his all coastland [the] nation
12 Nou menm tou Etyopyen yo, nou va detwi pa nepe Mwen.
also you(m. p.) Ethiopian slain: killed sword my they(masc.)
13 Li va lonje men Li kont nò pou detwi Assyrie, e li va fè Ninive vin yon kote dezole, sèk tankou dezè.
and to stretch hand his upon north and to perish [obj] Assyria and to set: make [obj] Nineveh to/for devastation dryness like/as wilderness
14 Bann bèt sovaj va vin kouche nan mitan l, tout kalite bèt yo. Grangozye, ni zagoudi va vin rete sou gran vil li yo. Vwa yo va chante nan fenèt yo. Papòt yo va rete dezole, paske Li te devwale nèt tout gran travès bwa sèd yo.
and to stretch in/on/with midst her flock all living thing nation also pelican also porcupine in/on/with capital her to lodge voice to sing in/on/with window desolation in/on/with threshold for cedar to uncover
15 Sa se gwo vil ki plen ak kè kontan, ki te viv san refleshi. Li te di nan kè l: “Se Mwen, e nanpwen sòf ke mwen.” Ala dezole li vin dezole! Yon kote pou bèt repoze yo. Tout moun ki pase kote l va soufle kon koulèv, e va voye pwen mare yo anlè sou li.
this [the] city [the] jubilant [the] to dwell to/for security [the] to say in/on/with heart her I and end I still how? to be to/for horror: destroyed resting to/for living thing all to pass upon her to whistle to shake hand his
