< Zefania 1 >
1 Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Zefania, mwanakomana waKushi, mwanakomana waGedharia, mwanakomana waAmaria, mwanakomana waHezekia, pamazuva okutonga kwaJosia mwanakomana waAmoni mambo weJudha richiti:
Dubbiin Waaqayyoo kan bara Yosiyaas ilmi Aamoon mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa gara Sefaaniyaa ilma Kuushii, ilma Gedaaliyaas, ilma Amariyaa, ilma Hisqiyaas dhufe kanaa dha:
2 “Ndichatsvaira zvose kubva pamusoro penyika,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
“Ani fuula lafaa irraa waan hunda haxaaʼee nan balleessa” jedha Waaqayyo.
3 “Ndichatsvaira zvose vanhu nemhuka; ndichatsvaira shiri dzedenga nehove dzegungwa. Vakaipa vachasara nemirwi yamarara chete, kana ndabvisa munhu pamusoro penyika,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
“Ani namaa fi horii haxaaʼee nan balleessa; simbirroota samiitii fi qurxummii galaanaa, waaqota tolfamoo namoota hamoo gufachiisan haxaaʼee nan balleessa.” “Ani sanyii namaa lafa irraa nan balleessa” jedha Waaqayyo.
4 Ndichatambanudza ruoko rwangu kuti ndirwise Judha uye ndicharwisa vose vanogara muJerusarema. Ndichaparadza kubva panzvimbo ino vose vakasara vaBhaari, mazita avaprista vechihedheni vanonamata zvifananidzo,
“Ani Yihuudaa fi warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan hundatti harka koo ol nan fudhadha. Ani hambaa Baʼaal hundaa fi maqaa luboota waaqota tolfamoo waaqeffatanii iddoo kanaa nan balleessa;
5 vaya vanopfugama pamusoro pedzimba kuti vanamate nyeredzi dzedenga, vaya vanopfugama vachipika naJehovha uye vanopikawo naMoreki,
warra raayyaa samii waaqeffachuuf qinaaxxii manaa irratti sagadan, warra sagadanii fi Waaqayyoon kakatan, warra Moolekiinis kakatan,
6 vaya vanotsauka kubva pakutevera Jehovha uye vasingatsvaki Jehovha kana kubvunza kwaari.
warra Waaqayyoon duukaa buʼuu dhiisanii duubatti deebiʼan, warra Waaqayyoon hin barbaanne yookaan gorsa isaa hin gaafanne nan balleessa.”
7 Nyararai pamberi paIshe Jehovha, nokuti zuva raJehovha rava pedyo. Jehovha agadzirira chibayiro; akavaita vatsvene, vaya vaakakoka.
Guyyaan Waaqayyoo waan dhiʼaateef fuula Waaqayyoo Gooftaa duratti calʼisaa. Waaqayyo aarsaa tokko qopheesseera; inni warra affeere qulqulleesseera.
8 Pazuva rechibayiro chaJehovha, ndicharova machinda navanakomana vamambo, navaya vose vakapfeka nguo dzavatorwa.
“Guyyaa aarsaa Waaqayyootti ani qondaaltota ilmaan mootichaatii fi warra wayyaa ormaa uffatan hunda nan adaba.
9 Pazuva iro ndicharanga vose vanonyenyeredza kuti vasatsika paburiro, vanozadza temberi yavamwari vavo nechisimba nounyengeri.
Ani gaafas warra buusaa irra utaalan, kanneen galma waaqota isaanii jeequmsaa fi gowwoomsaadhaan guutan nan adaba.”
10 “Pazuva iro,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “kuchema kuchanzwikwa kubva kuSuo reHove, kuungudza kubva kuRutivi Rutsva rweguta, nokukoromoka kukuru kubva kuzvikomo.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Gaafas Karra Qurxummii irraa iyya, Waltajjii Lammaffaa irraa wawwaannaa, gaarran irraa immoo sagalee diigama guddaatu dhagaʼama.
11 Ungudzai imi munogara munharaunda yomusika, vashambadzi venyu vose vachaparadzwa, vose vanotengesa nesirivha vachaparadzwa.
Isin warri Makteesh keessa jiraattan wawwaadhaa; daldaltoonni keessan hundi lafa irraa haxaaʼamu; warri meetii daldalan hundinuus ni barbadaaʼu.
12 Panguva iyoyo ndichanzvera Jerusarema nomwenje; uye ndicharanga vaya vagere zvavo, vakaita sewaini yakasiyiwa mumasese ayo, vanofunga kuti, ‘Jehovha hapana zvaangaita, zvakanaka kana zvakaipa.’
Ani yeroo sana Yerusaalemin ibsaadhaan nan sakattaʼa; warra qananiidhaan jiraatan, kanneen akka daadhii wayinii siicoo irratti hafee taʼan, kanneen, ‘Waaqayyo waan tolaas taʼu waan hamaa homaa hin godhu’ jedhanii yaadan nan adaba.
13 Upfumi hwavo huchapambwa, dzimba dzavo dzichaputswa, vachavaka dzimba, asi havangagari madziri; vachasima minda yemizambiringa, asi havanganwi waini yacho.
Qabeenyi isaanii ni saamama; manni isaanii ni ona. Isaan mana ijaarratu; garuu keessa hin jiraatan; isaan biqiltuu wayinii ni dhaabbatu; garuu daadhii wayinii hin dhugan.”
14 “Zuva guru raJehovha rava pedyo, pedyo, uye riri kuuya nokukurumidza. Teererai! Kuchema pazuva raJehovha kucharwadza, kuchema kwemhere ipapo.
Guyyaan Waaqayyoo guddichi dhiʼaateera; dhiʼaatees dafee dhufaara. Dhagaʼaa! Iyyi guyyaa Waaqayyoo hadhaaʼaa dha; goonni achitti sagalee ol fudhatee iyya.
15 Zuva iro richava rokutsamwa, zuva rokudzungaira nokumanikidzwa, zuva rokutambudzika nokuparadzwa, zuva rerima nokusuwa, zuva ramakore nezarima.
Guyyaan sun guyyaa dheekkamsaa, guyyaa dhiphinaa fi gaddaa, guyyaa rakkinaa fi badiisaa, guyyaa dukkanaa fi dimimmisaa, guyyaa duumessaa fi dukkana hamaa ni taʼa;
16 Zuva rehwamanda nemhere yehondo yokurwisa maguta akakomberedzwa namasvingo, nokurwisa shongwe dzomumakona.
magaalaawwan dallaa jabaa qabanii fi gamoowwan ol dhedheeroo irratti guyyaa itti malakata afuufanii fi iyya waraanaa taʼa.
17 Ndichauyisa kudzungaira pavanhu uye vachafamba samapofu, nokuti vakatadzira Jehovha. Ropa ravo richadururwa seguruva, uye nyama yavo sendove.
“Sababii isaan Waaqayyootti cubbuu hojjetaniif, ani akka isaan akkuma jaamotaatti deemaniif uummatatti dhiphina nan fida. Dhiigni isaanii akkuma awwaaraa, miʼi garaa isaaniis akkuma kosii gatama.
18 Sirivha yavo kana goridhe ravo hazvingagoni kuvaponesa, pazuva rokutsamwa kwaJehovha. Mumoto wegodo rake nyika yose ichaparadzwa, nokuti achauyisa magumo pakarepo kuna vose vanogara panyika.”
Guyyaa dheekkamsa Waaqayyootti meetiin isaanii yookaan warqeen isaanii isaan oolchuu hin dandaʼu.” Ibidda hinaaffaa isaatiin addunyaan hundi ni barbadoofti; warra lafa irra jiraatan hundatti inni badiisa tasaa ni fidaatii.
