Sefaaniyaa 3
1 Magaalaa cunqursitootaa, finciltuu fi xurooftuu sanaaf wayyoo!
Maye kulo idolobho labancindezeli, elihlamukayo lelingcolileyo!
2 Isheen nama tokkoof iyyuu hin ajajamtu; sirreeffama tokko iyyuu hin fudhattu. Isheen Waaqayyoon hin amanattu; Waaqa isheettis hin dhiʼaattu.
Kalilaleli muntu, kalivumi kukhuzwa. Kalithembeli kuThixo, kalisondeli kuNkulunkulu walo.
3 Qondaaltonni ishee leenca aaduu dha; bulchitoonni ishee yeeyyii galgalaa kanneen waan tokko illee ganamaaf hin bulfannee dha.
Izikhulu zalo ziyizilwane ezibhongayo, ababusi balo bazimpisi zakusihlwa, ezingatshiyi lutho lwekuseni.
4 Raajonni ishee of tuultota; isaan namoota hin amanamnee dha. Luboonni ishee iddoo qulqulluu xureessanii seeras cabsu.
Abaphrofethi balo bayazazisa; bangabantu bamacebo amabi. Abaphristi balo bangcolisa indawo engcwele bephule lomthetho.
5 Waaqayyo inni ishee keessa jiru qajeelaa dha; inni dogoggora tokko illee hin hojjetu. Inni ganama ganama murtii qajeelaa kenna; guyyaa tokko iyyuu waan kana hojjechuu hin dadhabu; jalʼoonni garuu qaanii tokko iyyuu hin beekan.
UThixo phakathi kwalo ulungile; kenzi okubi, nsuku zonke ekuseni wenza ukulunga kwakhe njalo kaphambanisi ukusa kwamalanga wonke, ikanti abangalunganga kabalanhloni.
6 “Ani saboota nan balleessa; daʼannoowwan isaanii diigamaniiru. Akka namni tokko iyyuu achiin hin dabarreef ani daandiiwwan ishee onseera. Magaalaawwan isaanii onanii nama malee, duwwaa hafu.
“Ngizichithile izizwe; izinqaba zazo zidiliziwe. Ngitshiye imigwaqo yazo ideliwe kungekho odlula khona. Amadolobho azo adiliziwe; kakho ozasala kakho lamunye.
7 Ani magaalaa sanaan, ‘Ati dhugumaan na sodaatta; sirreeffamas ni fudhatta!’ nan jedhe. Ergasii iddoon jireenya ishee hin badu yookaan adabbiin koo hundinuu isheetti hin dhufu. Isaan garuu waan hojjetan hunda keessatti daba hojjechuutti ciman.
Ngathi kulo idolobho, ‘Impela uzangesaba uvume ukukhuzwa!’ Lapho-ke indlu yalo yokuhlala yayingayikudilizwa loba isijeziso sami sehlele phezu kwalo. Kodwa babelokhu betshisekela izenzo zokuxhwala kukho konke abakwenzayo.
8 Kanaafuu guyyaa ani itti dhugaa baʼu eeggadhu” jedha Waaqayyo; “Ani sabootaa fi mootummoota walitti qabee dheekkamsa kootii fi aarii koo sodaachisaa sana hunda isaanitti dhangalaasuuf murteesseera. Addunyaan guutuun ibidda hinaaffaa kootiin gubattee barbadoofti.
Ngakho ngilindela,” kutsho uThixo, “lolusuku engizasukuma ngalo ngifakaze. Sengimise ukubuthanisa izizwe, ngiqoqe imibuso, ngehlisele ulaka lwami phezu kwabo konke ukuthukuthela kwami okukhulu. Umhlaba wonke uzaqothulwa ngomlilo womona wentukuthelo yami.”
9 “Ergasii ani akka hundi isaanii maqaa Waaqayyoo waammataniif, akka walii galuudhaan isa tajaajilaniifis afaan namootaa nan qulqulleessa.
“Lapho-ke ngizahlambulula izindebe zezizwe, ukuze zonke zikhuleke ebizweni likaThixo zimkhonze zimanyane.
10 Warri anaaf sagadan, intallan koo kanneen bittinnaaʼan lageen Itoophiyaa gamaa kennaa naaf fidu.
Kusukela ngaphetsheya kwemifula yaseKhushi abakhonzi bami, abantu bami abahlakazekileyo, bazangilethela iminikelo.
11 Sababii ani warra of tuulummaa isaaniitti gammadan magaalaa kana keessaa baasuuf, gaafas yakka ati natti hojjette sana hundaaf salphinni sitti hin dhufu. Ati lammata gaara koo qulqulluu irratti of hin tuultu.
Ngalolosuku kaliyikuyangiswa ngobubi bonke elabenza kimi, ngoba ngizabasusa kulelidolobho abathokoziswa yikuzigqaja kwabo. Kaliyikuzikhukhumeza futhi entabeni yami engcwele.
12 Ani garuu garraamotaa fi gad of qabeeyyii kanneen maqaa Waaqayyoo amanatan si keessatti nan hambisa.
Kodwa ngizatshiya phakathi kwenu abathambileyo labathobekileyo, abathembele ebizweni likaThixo.
13 Hambaan Israaʼel yakka tokko illee hin hojjetan. Isaan soba hin dubbatan yookaan gowwoomsaan afaan isaanii keessatti hin argamu. Isaan nyaatanii boqotu; kan isaan sodaachisus hin jiru.”
Kabayikwenza okubi; kabayikuqamba amanga, loba kube lenkohliso emilonyeni yabo. Bazakudla balale phansi, kakho ozabenza besabe.”
14 Yaa Intala Xiyoon ati faarfadhu; yaa Israaʼel sagalee ol fudhadhuu iyyi! Yaa Intala Yerusaalem gammadiitii garaa kee guutuudhaan ililchi!
Hlabela wena Ndodakazi yeZiyoni, klabalala kakhulu, wena Israyeli! Thaba uthokoze ngenhliziyo yakho yonke wena ndodakazi yaseJerusalema!
15 Waaqayyo adaba kee sirraa fuudheera; inni diinota kee sirraa deebiseera. Waaqayyo Mootiin Israaʼel, si wajjin jira; ati lammata balaa tokko illee hin sodaattu.
UThixo usesisusile isijeziso sakho, usesixotshile isitha sakho. UThixo, iNkosi ka-Israyeli, ulawe; akulangozi ozaphinda uyesabe futhi.
16 Isaan gaafas Yerusaalemiin akkana ni jedhu; “Yaa Xiyoon hin sodaatin; harki kees hin laafin.
Ngalolosuku bazakuthi kulo iJerusalema, “Ungesabi, wena Ziyoni; ungavumeli ukuba izandla zakho zibe buthakathaka.
17 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee inni si wajjin jiru jabaa dha. Inni baayʼee sitti gammada; inni jaalala isaatiin si boqochiisa; faarfannaadhaanis sitti gammada.”
UThixo uNkulunkulu wakho ulawe, ulamandla okusindisa. Uzathokoza kakhulu ngawe, uzakududuza ngothando lwakhe, uzakuthokozela ngokuhlabelela.”
18 “Ani gadda ati ayyaanota murteeffamaniif gadditu sirraa nan fuudha; isaan booʼichaa fi salphina sitti taʼu.
“Insizi zemikhosi emisiweyo ngizazisusa kuwe; zingumthwalo lehlazo kuwe.
19 Ani yeroo sanatti warra si cunqursan hunda nan adaba; ani okkolaa nan baraara; warra gatamanis walitti nan qaba. Ani biyya isaan itti qaaneffaman hunda keessatti maqaa fi ulfina isaaniifin kennaaf.
Ngalesosikhathi ngizababona bonke abalincindezelayo; ngizahlenga abaqhulayo ngibuthe lalabo abahlakazwayo, ngizabapha udumo lenhlonipho kuwo wonke amazwe lapho abahlaziswa khona.
20 Ani yeroo sanatti walittin isin qaba; yeroo sanatti ani biyya keessanitti isin nan galcha. Ani yeroo utuma isin argitanuu boojuu keessan deebisutti saba lafaa hunda gidduutti ulfinaa fi maqaa isiniifin kenna” jedha Waaqayyo.
Ngalesosikhathi ngizalibutha; ngalesosikhathi ngizalisa ekhaya. Ngizalipha inhlonipho lodumo phakathi kwezizwe zonke zasemhlabeni lapho sengiliphumelelisa futhi phambi kwamehlo enu uqobo,” kutsho uThixo.
