Sofonias 2
1 Agkaykaysakayo nga agtitipon ket aguummongkayo, O nasion nga awan babainna—
Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
2 sakbay a maipatungpal ti bilin, sakbay iti panaglabas ti aldaw a maiyarig iti taep, sakbay a dumteng ti nakaro a pungtot ni Yahweh kadakayo! Sakbay a dumteng ti aldaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh kadakayo!
Before the decree bring forth, [before] the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD’s anger come upon you.
3 Birukenyo ni Yahweh, dakayo amin a napakumbaba a tattao iti rabaw ti daga nga agtultulnog kadagiti bilinna! Birukenyo ti kinalinteg! Birukenyo ti kinapakumbaba, ket nalabit a masalaknibankayonto iti aldaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh!
Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’s anger.
4 Ta mabaybay-anto ti Gaza, ken madadaelto ti Askelon! Papanawendanto ti Asdod iti katengngaan ti aldaw, ken parutendanto ti Ekron!
For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
5 Asi pay dagiti agnanaed iti igid ti baybay, ti nasion dagiti taga-Keretim! Nagsao ni Yahweh a maibusor kadakayo, O Canaan, daga dagiti Filisteo! Dadaelenkanto agingga nga awan matda nga agnanaed!
Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD [is] against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.
6 Agbalinto ngarud a pagaraban ti igid ti baybay para kadagiti agpaspastor ken pangiyapunan ti karnero.
And the sea coast shall be dwellings [and] cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks.
7 Kukuanto dagiti nakalasat iti kaputotan ti Juda ti rehion iti igid ti baybay, a mangipastorto kadagiti arbanda sadiay. Agiddanto dagiti tattaoda iti rabii kadagiti balbalay ti Askelon, ta aywananto ida ni Yahweh a Diosda ken isublina dagiti kinarang-ayda.
And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.
8 Nangngegko dagiti panangum-umsi ti Moab ken ti pananglalais dagiti tattao ti Ammon idi inumsida dagiti tattaok ken linabsingda dagiti beddengda.
I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, whereby they have reproached my people, and magnified [themselves] against their border.
9 Ngarud, iti Naganko nga adda iti agnanayon”—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, “Agbalinto ti Moab a kas iti Sodoma, ken dagiti tattao ti Ammon ket kas iti Gomorra; karuruotan a lugar ken pagaramidan ti asin, a langalangto iti agnanayon! Ngem samsamanto ida dagiti matda kadagiti tattaok, ket agtawidto dagiti nabatbati iti nasionko manipud kadagitoy!
Therefore [as] I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, [even] the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them.
10 Mapasamakto daytoy iti Moab ken Ammon gapu iti kinatangsitda, agsipud ta inumsi ken inuyawda dagiti tattao ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin!
This shall they have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified [themselves] against the people of the LORD of hosts.
11 Ket agbutengdanto kenni Yahweh, gapu ta umsiennanto dagiti amin a didios iti daga. Agdayawdanto amin kenkuana, tunggal maysa iti bukodna a lugar, kadagiti amin nga igid ti baybay!
The LORD [will be] terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and [men] shall worship him, every one from his place, [even] all the isles of the heathen.
12 Dakayo a Cusita, maduyokkayonto met babaen iti kampilanko, ken
Ye Ethiopians also, ye [shall be] slain by my sword.
13 rautento ti ima ti Dios ti amianan ken dadaelenna ti Asiria, tapno agbalinto a langalang ti Nineve, kas kamaga iti let-ang.
And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, [and] dry like a wilderness.
14 Ket agiddanto dagiti arban iti tengnga ti Asiria, amin a narungsot nga ayup kadagiti nasion, ken agumokto dagiti billit ken kullaaw kadagiti tuktok dagiti adigina. Addanto ti agpukkaw kadagiti tawa ken aguninto dagiti uwak kadagiti agdanda, gapu ta imparangna dagiti sorelas a sedro.
And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; [their] voice shall sing in the windows; desolation [shall be] in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.
15 Daytoy ti nakaragragsak a siudad nga agbibiag nga awan butengna, a kunana iti pusona, “Siak, ken awanen ti kapadak!” Anian a nakaam-amak ti nagbalinanna, nagbalin a maysa a lugar a pagiddaan dagiti narurungsot nga ayup! Tunggal maysa a lumabas iti daytoy ket agsakuntipto ken isiniasna ti imana!
This [is] the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I [am], and [there is] none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, [and] wag his hand.
