< Sefanyaah 1 >
1 Kanu waa Eraygii Rabbiga oo u yimid Sefanyaah ina Kuushii, ina Gedalyaah, ina Amaryaah, ina Xisqiyaah, wakhtigii Yoosiyaah ina Aamoon uu boqorka ka ahaa dalka Yahuudah.
The word of the Lord that came to Sophonias the son of Chusi, the son of Godolias, the son of Amarias, the son of Ezechias, in the days of Josias the son of Amon king of Juda.
2 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu wax kasta waan ka baabbi'in doonaa dhulka korkiisa.
Gathering, I will gather together all things from off the face of the land, saith the Lord:
3 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Dad iyo duunyoba waan wada baabbi'in doonaa, haadda samada iyo kalluunka baddaba waan wada baabbi'in doonaa, oo waxa lagu turunturoodo iyo sharrowyadaba waan wada baabbi'in doonaa, oo binu-aadmigana waan ka gooyn doonaa dhulka korkiisa.
I will gather man, and beast, I will gather the birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea: and the ungodly shall meet with ruin: and I will destroy men from off the face of the land, saith the Lord.
4 Oo gacantaydaan ku soo kor fidin doonaa dalka Yahuudah iyo inta Yeruusaalem deggan oo dhan, oo intii Bacal ka hadhayna meeshan waan ka gooyn doonaa, iyo magaca Kemaariim iyo wadaaddada,
And I will stretch out my hand upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and I will destroy out of this place the remnant of Baal, and the names of the wardens of the temples with the priests:
5 iyo kuwa ciidanka samada ku caabuda guryaha dhaladooda, iyo kuwa Rabbiga caabuda oo ku dhaarta oo haddana ku dhaarta Malkaam,
And them that worship the host of heaven upon the tops of houses, and them that adore, and swear by the Lord, and swear by Melchom.
6 iyo kuwa dib uga noqday Rabbiga lasocodkiisii, iyo kuwa aan Rabbiga doondoonin ama aan isaga innaba wax ka baryin.
And them that turn away from following after the Lord, and that have not sought the Lord, nor searched after him.
7 Sayidka Rabbiga ah hortiisa ku aamus, maxaa yeelay, maalintii Rabbigu waa soo dhow dahay, waayo, Rabbigu waa diyaariyey allabari, oo martidiisiina quduus buu ka dhigay.
Be silent before the face of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is near, for the Lord hath prepared a victim, he hath sanctified his guests.
8 Oo maalinta Rabbiga allabarigiisa ayaan ciqaabi doonaa amiirrada iyo wiilasha boqorka, iyo inta dharka qalaad xidhan oo dhanba.
And it shall come to pass in the day of the victim of the Lord, that I will visit upon the princes, and upon the king’s sons, and upon all such as are clothed with strange apparel.
9 Maalintaas waxaan wada ciqaabi doonaa kuwa marinka ka booda, oo guriga sayidkooda ka buuxiya dulmi iyo khiyaano.
And I will visit in that day upon every one that entereth arrogantly over the threshold: them that fill the house of the Lord their God with iniquity and deceit.
10 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Isla maalintaas qaylo dhawaaqeed ayaa ka yeedhi doona Iridda Kalluunka, oo magaalada inteeda labaadna waxaa ka yeedhi doonta baroor, kurahana waxaa ka yeedhi doona daryaan weyn.
And there shall be in that day, saith the Lord, the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and a howling from the Second, and a great destruction from the hills.
11 Kuwiinna Makteesh degganow, qayliya, waayo, dadkii reer Kancaan oo dhammu waa dhammaaday, oo kuwii lacagta ku rarnaa oo dhammu waa baabba'.
Howl, ye inhabitants of the Morter. All the people of Chanaan is hush, all are cut off that were wrapped up in silver.
12 Oo wakhtigaas ayaan Yeruusaalem laambado ku baadhi doonaa, waanan ciqaabi doonaa dadka gufarkooda isaga fadhiyey sida khamri deggan oo kale, oo qalbigooda iska yidhaahda, Rabbigu wax wanaagsan samayn maayo, wax shar ahna samayn maayo.
And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and will visit upon the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their hearts: The Lord will not do good, nor will he do evil.
13 Maalkoodu wuxuu noqon doonaa wax la boobo, guryahooduna waxay noqon doonaan meel baabba' ah, haah, oo waxay dhisan doonaan guryo, laakiinse ma ay degi doonaan, oo waxay beeran doonaan beero canab ah, laakiinse khamrigooda ma ay cabbi doonaan.
And their strength shall become a booty, and their houses as a desert: and they shall build houses, and shall not dwell in them: and they shall plant vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.
14 Maalintii weynayd oo Rabbigu way soo dhow dahay, way soo dhow dahay, oo aad bay u soo degdegaysaa. Dhawaaqi maalinta Rabbigu mar dhow buu yeedhi doonaa, dadka xoogga badanuna halkaasay si qadhaadh ah uga qaylin doonaan.
The great day of the Lord is near, it is near and exceeding swift: the voice of the day of the Lord is bitter, the mighty man shall there meet with tribulation.
15 Maalintaasu waa maalin ay cadho jirto, oo waa maalin ay jiraan dhibaato iyo cidhiidhi, oo waa maalin ay jiraan dumin iyo baabbi'in, oo waa maalin ay jiraan gudcur iyo mugdi madow, oo waa maalin ay jiraan daruuro iyo gudcur dam ah,
That day is a day of wrath, a day of tribulation and distress, a day of calamity and misery, a day of darkness and obscurity, a day of clouds and whirlwinds,
16 oo waa maalin ay jiraan buun iyo qaylo dagaaleed oo ka gees ah magaalooyinka deyrka leh, iyo munaaradaha dhaadheer.
A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high bulwarks.
17 Dadka waxaan ku soo dejin doonaa cidhiidhi inay u socdaan sidii dad indha la', maxaa yeelay, Rabbigay ku dembaabeen, oo dhiiggoodu wuxuu u daadan doonaa sida boodh oo kale, hilibkooduna sida digo oo kale.
And I will distress men, and they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the Lord: and their blood shall be poured out as earth, and their bodies as dung.
18 Oo maalinta cadhada Rabbiga lacagtooda iyo dahabkooda midna kama samatabbixin doono iyaga, laakiinse dalka oo dhan waxaa baabbi'in doona dabka qiiradiisa, oo dhulka waxa deggan oo dhanna haddiiba dhaqsiyuu u wada dhammayn doonaa.
Neither shall their silver and their gold be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: all the land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy, for he shall make even a speedy destruction of all them that dwell in the land.
