< Zefaniya 3 >

1 Asiyliq qilghuchi, bulghan’ghan, jebir-zulum yetküzgüchi sheherge way!
Terrible things will [also] happen [to Jerusalem], that city whose people have rebelled [against Yahweh] and who have become unacceptable to him [because of the sins that they have committed]. [They act violently toward others] and they (oppress/treat cruelly) [other people].
2 U awazni anglimidi, terbiyini qobul qilmidi; Perwerdigargha tayanmidi, Xudasigha yéqinlashmidi.
[The people there] do not pay attention to people who tell them [the wrong things that they are doing] and [try to] (correct them/cause them to quit doing those things). [The people in Jerusalem] do not trust in Yahweh or draw near to ask help from their God.
3 Uning otturisida bolghan emirlirining hemmisi hörkireydighan shirlar, Uning soraqchiliri bolsa kechliki owlaydighan, etigini ghajilighudek héchnerse qaldurmaydighan börilerdur;
Their leaders are [like] [MET] roaring lions; they are [like] [MET] wolves that [attack other animals] during the evening, [and eat everything that they kill], with the result that the next morning there is nothing left [of those animals to eat].
4 Uning peyghemberliri wezinsiz, asiy kishiler; Uning kahinliri muqeddes ibadetxanini bulghaydighanlar, Tewrat-qanunigha buzghunchiliq qilidighanlar.
The prophets in Jerusalem are proud, [and they give messages that are] not to be trusted. Their priests cause the temple to be unholy by doing things that are opposed to the laws [of Moses].
5 Heqqaniy Perwerdigar uning otturisididur; U héch heqqaniyetsizlik qilmaydu; Her etigende adil hökümini ayan qilidu; Hökümide kemchilik yoqtur; Biraq namerd adem héch nomusni bilmeydu.
But Yahweh is [also] in the city; and he never does what is wrong. He treats people justly/fairly; he does that every day, but wicked people are never ashamed [about their doing what is wrong].
6 — Men ellerni üzüp tashliwetkenmen, Ularning istihkam poteyliri weyranidur; Kochilirini héchbir adem ötmigüdek qilip xarabe qilghanmen; Sheherliri ademzatsiz, héch turghuchisi yoq qilinip halak bolghan.
[Yahweh says this]: “I have destroyed [many] nations; I have destroyed their strong/high city walls and towers. [Now] I have caused the streets in those cities to be completely deserted [DOU]; the cities are ruined. There are no people [still alive] in the cities; they are all dead [LIT].
7 Men: «Peqet Mendin qorqunglar, terbiyini qobul qilinglar» — dédim. Shundaq bolghanda uninggha hemme békitkenlirim chüshürülmey, makani héch xaniweyran bolmas. Biraq ular baldurla ornidin turup, hemme ishlirini haram qiliwetti.
[So] I thought [to myself], ‘[Because of what I have done to those other nations], surely the people [of Jerusalem] will revere me [now], and they will accept (my correcting them/my telling them to quit doing what is wrong). [If they do that, I] will not destroy their houses; I will not punish them like I said that I would do.’ But [in spite of knowing how I punished those other nations], they were still eager to get up early each morning and continue to do evil things.
8 Shunga Méni kütünglar, — deydu Perwerdigar, Men guwahliq bérishke ornumdin qozghalghan kün’giche — Chünki Méning qararim — ellerni yighish, Padishahliqlarni jem qilishtin ibaretki, Ularning üstige qehrimni, Hemme dehshetlik achchiqimni béshigha töküsh üchündur. Chünki yer yüzining hemmisi achchiq ghezipimning oti bilen köydürüwétilidu.
Therefore I, Yahweh, say, ‘Wait for the day in which I will testify [in court about your evil things].’ I have decided to gather the people of the kingdoms [of the earth] [DOU] and cause them to know that I am very angry with them. All [over] the earth I will punish and destroy people; my being angry with them because I (am jealous/want people to worship no other god) is [like] [MET] a (raging/very hot) fire.
9 Chünki shu tapta barliq ellerning Perwerdigarining namigha nida qilip chaqirishi üchün, Uning xizmitide bir jan bir ten bolushi üchün, Men ularning tilini sap bir tilgha aylandurimen,
When that happens, I will cause [all] people [MTY] to be changed and enable them to speak [only] what is (pure/pleasing to me), in order that everyone can worship me [MTY] and unitedly/together serve me [MTY].
10 Chünki Éfiopiye deryalirining nérisidin Méning dua-tilawetchilirim, Yeni Men tarqatqanlarning qizi, Manga sunulghan hediyeni épkélidu.
[Then] my people who [were forced to go to other countries], those who live along the upper part of the [Nile] River in Ethiopia will come to me and bring offerings to me.
11 Shu küni sen Manga asiyliq qilghan barliq qilmishliring tüpeylidin iza tartip qalmaysen; Chünki shu tapta Men tekebburluqungdin xushallinip ketkenlerni arangdin élip tashlaymen, Shuning bilen sen muqeddes téghim tüpeylidin halingni ikkinchi chong qilmaysen;
At that time, you [people in Jerusalem] will no [longer] be ashamed [about what has happened to you], because you no longer will be rebelling against me. I will get rid of all the people among you who are very proud [DOU]. No one on [Zion], my holy hill, will [strut around] proudly.
12 We Men arangda kemter hem miskin bir xelqni qaldurimen, Ular Perwerdigarning namigha tayinidu.
Those who are still alive in Israel will be poor and humble; they will be people who trust in me [MTY].
13 Israilning qaldisi ne qebihlik qilmaydu, Ne yalghan sözlimeydu, Ne ularning aghzidin aldamchi til tépilmaydu; Ular belki ozuqlinip, yatidu, Héchkim ularni qorqutmaydu.
Those people who are still alive [there] in Israel will not do [things that are] wrong; they will not tell lies or deceive [MTY] people. They will eat and sleep [safely], [because] no one will cause them to be afraid.”
14 Yayrap-yashna, i Zion qizi! Tentene qilip warqira, i Israil! Pütün qelbing bilen xushal bolup shadlan, i Yérusalémning qizi!
You people who live in Jerusalem [DOU] and [other places in] Israel, sing and shout loudly! Be glad, and rejoice [DOU] greatly,
15 Perwerdigar séni jazalaydighan hökümlerni élip tashlidi, Düshminingni qayturuwetti; Israilning padishahi Perwerdigar arangdidur; Yamanliqni ikkinchi körmeysen.
[because] Yahweh will stop punishing [MTY] you, and he will send away from you [the armies of] your enemies! And Yahweh [himself], the king of [us] Israeli people, will live among us, and never again will we be afraid that [others will] harm us.
16 Shu küni Yérusalémgha éytiliduki, «Qorqma, i Zion! Qolliring boshap, sanggilap ketmisun!
At that time, [other people] will say to us people of Jerusalem, “[You people of] [APO] Jerusalem, do not be afraid; do not become afraid or discouraged,
17 Perwerdigar Xudaying arangda, Qutquzidighan qudret Igisidur! U shadliq bilen üstüngde shadlinidu; Öz méhir-muhebbitide aram alidu; Üstüngde naxshilar éytip yayrap-yashnaydu.
[because] Yahweh your God is [living] among you. He is mighty, and he will rescue/save you. He will be very happy with you; because he loves you, he will cause you to not be afraid; he will sing loudly to rejoice over you.”
18 Jemiyet sorunliridiki nomussiz ibadet tüpeylidin aranglardin azablan’ghanlarni yighimen; Bularning shermendilikliri ulargha éghir kéletti.
[Yahweh says, ] “You people were sad and ashamed because [you were unable to attend] your religious festivals; but I will cause you to no longer be disgraced.
19 Mana, Men shu tapta séni xarlighanlarning hemmisini bir terep qilimen, Aqsaq bolghan qizni qutquzimen; Talagha heydiwétilgen qizni yighimen; Del ular xorlan’ghan barliq zéminlarda ularni [Özümge] medhiye keltürgüchi, shöhret bolghuchi qilip tikleymen.
Truly, I will [severely] punish all those who (oppressed you/caused you to suffer). I will rescue those who are helpless and those who were forced to go to other countries. I will enable them to be praised and honored in every country to which they were (exiled/forced to go), places where they were disgraced.
20 Men shu tapta, yeni silerni yighqan waqitta, silerni [öyge] épkélimen; Chünki Men köz aldinglarda silerni asarettin azadliqqa chiqarghinimda, Silerni yer yüzidiki barliq eller arisida shöhretlik, [Özemge] medhiye keltürgüchi qilimen, — deydu Perwerdigar.
At that time, I will gather you together and bring you [back] home [to Israel]. I will cause you to (have a good reputation/be honored) and be [greatly] praised among all the nations of the earth. You [MTY] will see me causing you to prosper again. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
