Sofonias Propheta 2

1 Convenite, congregamini gens non amabilis:

Gather yourselves together and gather together O nation not ashamed.

2 Priusquam pariat iussio quasi pulverem transeuntem diem, antequam veniat super vos ira furoris Domini, antequam veniat super vos dies indignationis Domini.

Before brings forth a decree like chaff it has passed away a day before - not it will come on you [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh before not it will come on you [the] day of [the] anger of Yahweh.

3 Quaerite Dominum omnes mansueti terrae, qui iudicium eius estis operati: quaerite iustum, quaerite mansuetum: si quomodo abscondamini in die furoris Domini.

Seek Yahweh O all [the] humble [people] of the land who judgment his they have done seek righteousness seek humility perhaps you will be hidden on [the] day of [the] anger of Yahweh.

4 Quia Gaza destructa erit, et Ascalon in desertum, Azotum in meridie eiicient, et Accaron eradicabitur.

For Gaza abandoned it will be and Ashkelon [will become] a desolation Ashdod at the noontide people will drive out it and Ekron it will be plucked up.

5 Vae qui habitatis funiculum maris, gens perditorum: verbum Domini super vos Chanaan terra Philisthinorum, et disperdam te, ita ut non sit inhabitator.

Woe to! [the] inhabitants of [the] region of the sea [the] nation of [the] Kerethites [the] word of Yahweh [is] on you O Canaan [the] land of [the] Philistines and I will destroy you from not inhabitant.

6 Et erit funiculus maris requies pastorum, et caulae pecorum:

And it will be [the] region of the sea pastures of meadows of shepherds and folds of sheep.

7 et erit funiculus eius qui remanserit de domo Iuda: ibi pascentur, in domibus Ascalonis ad vesperam requiescent: quia visitabit eos Dominus Deus eorum, et avertet captivitatem eorum.

And it will belong [the] region to [the] remnant of [the] house of Judah on them they will graze! in [the] houses of Ashkelon in the evening they will lie down! for he will visit them Yahweh God their and he will turn back (captivity their. *Q(k)*)

8 Audivi opprobrium Moab, et blasphemias filiorum Ammon: quae exprobraverunt populo meo, et magnificati sunt super terminos eorum.

I have heard [the] reproach of Moab and [the] reviling words of [the] people of Ammon who they have reproached people my and they have magnified themselves on territory their.

9 Propterea vivo ego, dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel, quia Moab ut Sodoma erit, et filii Ammon quasi Gomorrha, siccitas spinarum, et acervi salis, et desertum usque in aeternum: reliquiae populi mei diripient eos, et residui gentis meae possidebunt illos.

Therefore [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel that Moab like Sodom it will be and [the] people of Ammon like Gomorrah a place possessed of nettle[s] and a pit of salt and a waste until perpetuity [the] remnant of people my they will plunder them and [the] rest ofK: (nation my *Q(K)*) they will take possession of them.

10 Hoc eis eveniet pro superbia sua: quia blasphemaverunt, et magnificati sunt super populum Domini exercituum.

This [will belong] to them in place of pride their for they reproached and they magnified themselves on [the] people of Yahweh of hosts.

11 Horribilis Dominus super eos, et attenuabit omnes deos terrae: et adorabunt eum viri de loco suo, omnes insulae Gentium.

[will be] awesome Yahweh on them if he will make lean all [the] gods of the earth so they may bow down to him everyone from own place his all [the] islands of the nations.

12 Sed et vos Aethiopes interfecti gladio meo eritis.

Also you O Cushites [are those] slain of sword my they.

13 Et extendet manum suam super Aquilonem, et perdet Assur: et ponet speciosam in solitudinem, et in invium, et quasi desertum.

And he may stretch out hand his on [the] north so he may destroy Assyria and he may make Nineveh a waste a dry region like the wilderness.

14 Et accubabunt in medio eius greges, omnes bestiae Gentium: et onocrotalus, et ericius in liminibus eius morabuntur: vox cantantis in fenestra, corvus in superliminari, quoniam attenuabo robur eius.

And they will lie down in [the] midst of it herds every animal of a nation both desert owl as well as hedgehog on capitals its they will spend [the] night a sound it will sing in the window desolation [will be] on the threshold for cedar-work he will lay bare.

15 Haec est civitas gloriosa habitans in confidentia: quae dicebat in corde suo: Ego sum, et extra me non est alia amplius: quomodo facta est in desertum cubile bestiae? omnis, qui transit per eam, sibilabit, et movebit manum suam.

This [is] the city jubilant which dwells to security which says in heart its I and only I [am] yet how! - it has become a waste a resting place for animal[s] every [one who] passes by at it he will hiss he will shake hand his.
