Sefaaniyaa 3
1 Magaalaa cunqursitootaa, finciltuu fi xurooftuu sanaaf wayyoo!
Maye kowenyanyekayo longcolileyo, umuzi ocindezelayo!
2 Isheen nama tokkoof iyyuu hin ajajamtu; sirreeffama tokko iyyuu hin fudhattu. Isheen Waaqayyoon hin amanattu; Waaqa isheettis hin dhiʼaattu.
Kawulalelanga ilizwi; kawemukelanga ukulaywa; kawuthembelanga eNkosini; kawusondelanga kuNkulunkulu wawo.
3 Qondaaltonni ishee leenca aaduu dha; bulchitoonni ishee yeeyyii galgalaa kanneen waan tokko illee ganamaaf hin bulfannee dha.
Iziphathamandla zawo phakathi kwawo ziyizilwane ezibhongayo; abahluleli bawo bazimpisi zokuhlwa; kazikhukhuzi ithambo ekuseni.
4 Raajonni ishee of tuultota; isaan namoota hin amanamnee dha. Luboonni ishee iddoo qulqulluu xureessanii seeras cabsu.
Abaprofethi bawo bangabangakhathaliyo, abantu abakhohlisayo; abapristi bawo sebengcolise indawo engcwele, benze udlakela kumthetho.
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.
INkosi elungileyo iphakathi kwawo, kayiyikwenza ububi; ukusa ngokusa ibeka isahlulelo sayo ekukhanyeni, kayiphuthi; kodwa ongalunganga kazi inhloni.
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.
Ngiziqumile izizwe, izingonsi zazo zingamanxiwa, ngenzile izitalada zazo incithakalo, ukuze kungadluli muntu; imizi yazo idiliziwe, kakusekho muntu, kakulamhlali.
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: Isibili uzangesaba, wemukele ukulaywa; ukuze indawo yakhe yokuhlala ingaqunywa, konke engimjezisa ngakho; sibili bavuka ngovivi, bazonakalise zonke izenzo zabo.
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 ngilindelani, itsho iNkosi, kuze kube lusuku engizavukela impango ngalo. Ngoba isahlulelo sami siyikubuthelela izizwe, ukuze ngiqoqe imibuso, ngithululele phezu kwabo intukuthelo yami, konke ukuvutha kolaka lwami; ngoba umhlaba wonke uzaqothulwa ngumlilo wobukhwele bami.
9 “Ergasii ani akka hundi isaanii maqaa Waaqayyoo waammataniif, akka walii galuudhaan isa tajaajilaniifis afaan namootaa nan qulqulleessa.
Ngoba ngalesosikhathi ngizabuyisela ebantwini ulimi oluhlambulukileyo, ukuze bonke babize ibizo leNkosi, ukuze bayikhonze ngahlombe linye.
10 Warri anaaf sagadan, intallan koo kanneen bittinnaaʼan lageen Itoophiyaa gamaa kennaa naaf fidu.
Kusukela phetsheya kwemifula yeEthiyophiya abancengi bami, indodakazi yabahlakazekileyo bami, bazaletha umnikelo wami.
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 kawuyikuyangeka ngenxa yezenzo zakho zonke, ophambuke ngazo kimi, ngoba ngalesosikhathi ngizakhupha phakathi kwakho abathokoza ekuzikhukhumezeni kwakho; futhi kawusayikubuya uziphakamise entabeni yami engcwele.
12 Ani garuu garraamotaa fi gad of qabeeyyii kanneen maqaa Waaqayyoo amanatan si keessatti nan hambisa.
Njalo ngizatshiya phakathi kwakho abantu abahluphekileyo labangabayanga; bona bazathemba ebizweni likaJehova.
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.”
Insali yakoIsrayeli kayiyikwenza ububi, kayiyikukhuluma amanga; njalo kakuyikufunyanwa ulimi olukhohlisayo emlonyeni wayo; ngoba bona bazakudla balale phansi, njalo kungekho obesabisayo.
14 Yaa Intala Xiyoon ati faarfadhu; yaa Israaʼel sagalee ol fudhadhuu iyyi! Yaa Intala Yerusaalem gammadiitii garaa kee guutuudhaan ililchi!
Hlabelela, ndodakazi yeZiyoni; memeza, Israyeli; thokoza, ujabule ngenhliziyo yonke, ndodakazi yeJerusalema.
15 Waaqayyo adaba kee sirraa fuudheera; inni diinota kee sirraa deebiseera. Waaqayyo Mootiin Israaʼel, si wajjin jira; ati lammata balaa tokko illee hin sodaattu.
INkosi isusile izahlulelo zakho, isixotshile isitha sakho; inkosi yakoIsrayeli, uJehova, iphakathi kwakho; kawusayikubona okubi.
16 Isaan gaafas Yerusaalemiin akkana ni jedhu; “Yaa Xiyoon hin sodaatin; harki kees hin laafin.
Ngalolosuku kuzakuthiwa kuyo iJerusalema: Ungesabi; lawe Ziyoni, kazingadangali izandla zakho.
17 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee inni si wajjin jiru jabaa dha. Inni baayʼee sitti gammada; inni jaalala isaatiin si boqochiisa; faarfannaadhaanis sitti gammada.”
INkosi uNkulunkulu wakho phakathi kwakho ilamandla, izasindisa; izajabula ngawe ngentokozo; izathula othandweni lwayo, ithabe ngawe ngokuhlabelela.
18 “Ani gadda ati ayyaanota murteeffamaniif gadditu sirraa nan fuudha; isaan booʼichaa fi salphina sitti taʼu.
Ngizababutha abadabuka ngenxa yenhlangano emisiweyo, bevela kuwe; ihlazo lingumthwalo kubo.
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.
Khangela, ngalesosikhathi ngizakuba lokwenza labo bonke abakuhluphayo; ngisindise oqhulayo, ngibuthe oxotshiweyo; ngibabeke babe yindumiso lebizo kulo lonke ilizwe lehlazo labo.
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 ngizalingenisa, langesikhathi engizalibuthelela ngaso; ngoba ngizalenza libe libizo lendumiso phakathi kwabantu bonke bomhlaba, lapho sengibuyisa abathunjiweyo benu phambi kwamehlo enu, itsho iNkosi.
