Sefanyaah 3
1 Waxaa iska hoogtay magaalada caasiyowday oo nijaasowday oo wax dulunta!
Woe to her that is filthie and polluted, to the robbing citie.
2 Iyadu codkii ma ay addeecin, oo edbintiina ma ay aqbalin, oo Rabbiga iskuma ay hallayn, oo Ilaahna kuma ay soo dhowaan.
She heard not the voyce: she receiued not correction: she trusted not in the Lord: she drew not neere to her God.
3 Amiirradeeda iyada dhex jooga waa sida libaaxyo ciyaya, xaakinnadeeduna waa sida yeey habeennimo oo aan waxba tan iyo aroortii reebin.
Her princes within her are as roaring lyons: her iudges are as wolues in the euening, which leaue not the bones till the morow.
4 Nebiyadeedu waa kuwo fudud oo khiyaano badan, oo wadaaddadeediina meeshii quduuska ahayd ayay nijaaseeyeen, oo sharcigiina si xun bay u dhaafeen.
Her prophets are light, and wicked persons: her priests haue polluted the Sanctuarie: they haue wrested the Lawe.
5 Rabbiga dhexdeeda jooga waa xaq, oo innaba xumaan ma samayn doono, oo caddaaladdiisana aroor kastaba wuu soo saaraa, oo marnaba kama baaqdo, laakiinse caddaaladlaawuhu isma ceebsan yaqaan.
The iust Lord is in the middes thereof: he will doe none iniquitie: euery morning doeth hee bring his iudgement to light, he faileth not: but the wicked will not learne to be ashamed.
6 Anigu quruumo ayaan baabbi'iyey, oo qalcadahoodiina waa baabba', oo jidadkoodiina cidla baan ka dhigay si aan ciduna u marin, oo magaalooyinkoodiina waa la dumiyey, si aan qofna u joogin oo aan cid keliyuhuna u degganaan.
I haue cut off the nations: their towres are desolate: I haue made their streetes waste, that none shall passe by: their cities are destroyed without man and without inhabitant.
7 Waxaan idhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah waad iga cabsan doontaa, oo edbin baad aqbali doontaa. Markaas hoygeedu uma uu baabbe'een sidii aan iyada u goostay. Laakiinse aroor horay keceen oo falimahoodii oo dhan way xumeeyeen.
I said, Surely thou wilt feare me: thou wilt receiue instruction: so their dwelling shoulde not be destroyed howsoeuer I visited them, but they rose earely and corrupted all their workes.
8 Haddaba i suga, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay, ilaa maalinta aan ugaadhsade u soo kici doono, waayo, waxaan ku talajiraa inaan quruumaha isu soo ururiyo oo aan boqortooyooyinka isu soo shiriyo, si aan korkooda ugu shubo dhirifkayga iyo xataa xanaaqayga kulul oo dhan, waayo, dhulka oo dhan waxaa baabbi'in doona dabka qiiradayda.
Therefore wait ye vpon me, saith the Lord, vntill the day that I rise vp to the praye: for I am determined to gather the nations, and that I will assemble the kingdomes to powre vpon them mine indignation, euen all my fierce wrath: for all the earth shall be deuoured with the fire of my ielousie.
9 Waayo, markaas ayaan dadyowga siin doonaa af daahir ah, si ay kulligood magaca Rabbiga ugu yeedhaan, oo ay isaga ugu adeegaan isku niyad keliya.
Surely then will I turne to the people a pure language, that they may all call vpon the Name of the Lord, to serue him with one cosent.
10 Kuwa i barya oo ah dadkayga firidhsan waxay webiyaasha Itoobiya shishadooda ka keeni doonaan qurbaankayga.
From beyonde the riuers of Ethiopia, the daughter of my dispersed, praying vnto me, shall bring me an offering.
11 Wakhtigaas uma aad ceeboobi doontid falimahaaga oo dhan, kuwaas oo aad igaga xadgudubtay, waayo, markaas waxaan dhexdaada ka bixin doonaa kuwaaga kibray oo isfaaninaya, oo adna mar dambe ku madax weynaan maysid buurtayda quduuska ah.
In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy workes, wherein thou hast transgressed against mee: for then I will take away out of the middes of thee them that reioyce of thy pride, and thou shalt no more be proude of mine holy Mountaine.
12 Laakiinse dhexdaada waxaan uga tegi doonaa dad dhibaataysan oo masaakiin ah, oo iyana magaca Rabbiga ayay isku hallayn doonaan.
Then will I leaue in the middes of thee an humble and poore people: and they shall trust in the Name of the Lord.
13 Kuwa reer binu Israa'iil ka hadhay xumaan ma samayn doonaan, beenna ma sheegi doonaan, oo afkoodana innaba carrab khiyaano badan lagama heli doono, waayo, iyagu wax bay quudan doonaan oo way iska jiifsan doonaan, oo waxba iyaga ma cabsiin doonaan.
The remnant of Israel shall do none iniquitie, nor speake lies: neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shalbe fed, and lie downe, and none shall make them afraide.
14 Magaalada Siyoonay, gabay, reer binu Israa'iilow, qayliya, Magaalada Yeruusaalemay, farax oo qalbiga oo dhan ku reyree.
Reioyce, O daughter Zion: be ye ioyfull, O Israel: be glad and reioyce with all thine heart, O daughter Ierusalem.
15 Rabbigu wuxuu qaaday xukummadaadii, oo cadowgaagiina wuu tuuray. Boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil oo Rabbiga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, oo mar dambe shar ka baqi maysid.
The Lord hath taken away thy iudgements: hee hath cast out thine enemie: the King of Israel, euen the Lord is in the middes of thee: thou shalt see no more euill.
16 Wakhtigaas waxaa Yeruusaalem lagu odhan doonaa, Ha cabsan, Siyoonay, yaan gacmahaagu debcin.
In that day it shalbe said to Ierusalem, Feare thou not, O Zion: let not thine handes be faint.
17 Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah ayaa dhexdaada jooga, isagu waa mid xoog badan oo ku badbaadin doona. Farxad buu kuugu rayrayn doonaa, oo wuxuu ku nasan doonaa jacaylkiisa, oo gabay buu kuugu farxi doonaa.
The Lord thy God in the middes of thee is mightie: hee will saue, hee will reioyce ouer thee with ioye: he will quiet himselfe in his loue: he will reioyce ouer thee with ioy.
18 Waxaan soo ururin doonaa kuwaagii laga masaafuriyey oo haatan u murugaysan shirka quduuska ah, kuwaasoo culaabta kor saaranu ay cay ahayd.
After a certaine time will I gather the afflicted that were of thee, and them that bare the reproch for it.
19 Bal eeg, wakhtigaas anigaa la macaamiloon doona kuwa ku dhiba oo dhan, oo waan badbaadin doonaa kuwa dhutiya, oo kuwii la eryayna waan soo ururin doonaa, oo kuwii ceebtoodu ay wada gaadhay dhulka oo dhan ayaan u yeeli doonaa ammaan iyo magac.
Beholde, at that time I will bruise all that afflict thee, and I will saue her that halteth, and gather her that was cast out, and I will get them praise and fame in all the landes of their shame.
20 Oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo gelin doonaa gudaha, oo wakhtigaas waan idin soo ururin doonaa, waayo, dadyowga dunida jooga oo dhan waxaan idiinku dhex yeeli doonaa magac iyo ammaan, markaan maxaabiistiinnii oo dhan hortiinna ku soo celiyo, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
At that time wil I bring you againe, and then wil I gather you: for I wil giue you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turne backe your captiuitie before your eyes, saith the Lord.
