< Zefanaia 2 >
1 Tamagaze zama omane Juda vahe'mota, tamagra magopi eme eritru hiho, eme eritru hiho.
Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation without desire [for repentance];
2 Anumzamo'ma keagama huramantesiana knamo'ma ome'nesigeno, kagrama kagu'ama rukrahe'ma hanana knamo'ma witi honama zaho'mo ame huno eri hareno viaza huno ovanigeno, Ra Anumzamofo arimpa ahe'zama ome'nesire,
Before the decree is brought forth—like the chaff the day passeth away—before yet there be come over you the fierce anger of the Lord, before yet there be come over you the day of the anger of the Lord.
3 tamavufga eri anteramita nemanita, Ra Anumzamo'ma hihoma hianke'ma amage'ma nentaza vahe'mota Anumzamofonku hakeho. Fatgo avu'ava zana hankavetita nehuta, tamavufga anteramita maniho. Ana'ma hanageno'a Anumzamofo arimpa he'zamo'ma esania knazupa, Agrama kegava huramantesigu'enena ontahi'naze.
Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, who have fulfilled his ordinances; seek righteousness, seek meekness: perhaps ye will be protected on the day of the Lord's anger.
4 Hagi Gaza kumapina vahera omanitfa hanageno Askeloni kumara maka eri havizantfa hanageno, Astoti kumapi vahera kinagama senkeno'a ha' vahe'mo'za e'za eme zamahe panini hanage'za nefresage'za, Ekroni kumapi vahera trazama vati'netreaza hu'za maka zamahe vagaregahaze.
For Gazzah shall become forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolate place: Ashdod shall they drive out at the noon of day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.
5 Hageri anke'nama nemaniza Kereti vahe'mota kva hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a Kenani mopafima nemaniza Filistia vahe'mota keaga huramanteno, tamazeri haviza hanigeta maka vahera omanita huza fanane hugahaze hu'ne.
Woe unto the inhabitants of the district by the sea, the nation of the Kerethites! the word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that no inhabitant shall remain.
6 Hagi hageri ankenaregama me'nea Filistia vahe mopafina, traza nehagesigeno, sipisipi afu'ma kegavama nehaza vahe'mokizmi nontamimo'ene sipisipi afutamimofo keginamo'ene anampina megahie.
And the district by the sea shall become places for pens of shepherds, and folds for flocks.
7 Juda naga nofipinti vahe'ma osi'ama ofri manisaza vahe'mo'za anampina trazama nenaza afu'zamia kegava hu'za manigahaze. Ana nehu'za hanima hanige'za Askeloni vahe'mokizmi nompi umasesageno Ra Anumzana zamagri Anumzamo'a kegava hunezmanteno, zamazeri knare hugahie. Kumapinti vahe'mo'za atre'za fresageno azumateni'a nontamimpi eri nafa'a hu'za manigahaze. Na'ankure Juda vahe'mokizmi Anumzana Ra Anumzamo so'e avu'ava hune zamanteno, ete zamazeri knare nehanige'za makazampina knare hu'za manigahaze.
And this district shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; thereupon shall they feed their flocks: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening; for the Lord their God will think of them, and bring back their captivity.
8 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Moapu vahemo'zane Amoni vahe'mo'zama Nagri vahe'ma huhavizama hunezmante'za kiza zokago kema hunezmante'za, mopazmima zamazeri koro hu'za erinaku'ma nehaza zana Nagra ko antahi'noe.
I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of 'Ammon, wherewith they have reproached my people, and made themselves great against their border.
9 Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra kasefa hu'na mani'noa Anumzana Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzamo'na tamage huanki'na, Moapu vahe'mo'za Sodomu vahe'mo'zama hu'nazaza nehanage'za, Amoni vahera Gomora vahe'ma hu'noaza hu'na ozamatre maka zamazeri haviza hanugeno, anampina ave'ave trazamoke nehanigeno hagema kafiza eri'naza kerimoke'za hugahie. Nagri naga'ma osi'ama manisaza vahe'mo'za, ana vahe'mokizmi fenozana rohu zamare'za e'neriza, mopazmia eri nafa'a hugahaze.
Therefore as I live, saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall become like Sodom, and the children of 'Ammon like Gomorrah, overgrown with nettles, and [filled with] salt-pits, and a desolation to eternity; the residue of my people shall plunder them, and the remnant of my nation shall possess them.
10 Hagi Moapu vahe'mo'zane Amoni vahe'mo'zama zamavufaga rama hu'naza zamofo mizama'a erigahaze. Na'ankure zamagra Monafi sondia vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzamofo vahera huhaviza hunezamante'za, kiza zokago ke huzamante'nagu anara hugahaze.
This shall they have in recompense for their pride; because they have reproached and made themselves great against the people of the Lord of hosts.
11 Ra Anumzamo'a maka ama mopafima me'nea havi anumzantamina eri haviza huvaga nereno, vahera zamazeri koro hugahie. Ana hanige'za kokankokama nemaniza vahe'mo'za mopazamire manitere hu'ne'za, Ra Anumzamofona monora huntegahaze.
Terrible will the Lord [appear] over them; for he will cause to vanish all the gods of the earth; and then shall prostrate themselves before him, every one from its place, all the isles of the nations.
12 Hagi Itiopia vahe'motanena Nagri bainati kazimo tamahe frigahie!
Also ye Ethiopians shall be those slain by my sword.
13 Ra Anumzamo'a azana rusuteno noti kazigama nemaniza vahera hara hunezamanteno, Asiria vahera zamazeri haviza hugahie. Ana nehuno ugagotama hu'nea Ninive kumara eri haviza hina, vahera omanisigeno ka'ma koka fore hugahie.
And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and he will make Nineveh a desolate place, dry, like the wilderness.
14 Hagi ana kumapina trazante afu'tamimo'za e'za anampina eme vano nehanageno, afi zagagafamo'za e'za anampina emanigahaze. Ana nehanage'za komutomo'za nontamimofo azeri hanaveti zafare umani emani hu'ne'za krafa nehanageno, zamagerumo'a zaho'ma eri kafanteti atiramino evu evu hugahie. Faragu vaziramino hihima hania haveramimo, nomofo kafaramina rehiza hugahie. Ana nehanigeno noma vazisgama hu'nea sida zafaramimo'a amate megahie.
And there shall lie down in the midst of her flocks, all the beasts of the nations; both the pelican and the hedgehog shall lodge in the capitals of her columns; singing-birds shall sing in the windows; ruin shall be on the thresholds; for the cedar wainscoting shall be torn away.
15 Ninive ran kumapima nemaniza vahe'mo'za kora tusi muse nehu'za zamavufaga erisga nehu'za, zamagrama antahi'zana mago zana tavatera fore osanigeta knare huta manigahune hu'za antahi'naze. Zamagra hu'za mago kumamo'e huno tagri kuma knara osu'ne hu'za nehaza kumamo'agi menina evuramino haviza hige'za, afi zaga kfamo'za anampi eme nogi'za mani'naze. Ana hazage'za karankama evaza vahe'mo'za ana kuma'ma nege'za, kiza zokago ke hunente'za zamazana ruharakihariki hu'naze.
This is the joyful city that dwelt in security, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none else beside me: how is she become desolate, a resting-place for beasts! every one that passeth by her will hiss, and shake his hand.
