Zǝfaniya 3
1 Asiyliⱪ ⱪilƣuqi, bulƣanƣan, jǝbir-zulum yǝtküzgüqi xǝⱨǝrgǝ 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, tǝrbiyini ⱪobul ⱪilmidi; Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa tayanmidi, Hudasiƣa yeⱪinlaxmidi.
[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 bolƣan ǝmirlirining ⱨǝmmisi ⱨɵrkirǝydiƣan xirlar, Uning soraⱪqiliri bolsa kǝqliki owlaydiƣan, ǝtigini ƣajiliƣudǝk ⱨeqnǝrsǝ ⱪaldurmaydiƣan bɵrilǝrdur;
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 pǝyƣǝmbǝrliri wǝzinsiz, asiy kixilǝr; Uning kaⱨinliri muⱪǝddǝs ibadǝthanini bulƣaydiƣanlar, Tǝwrat-ⱪanuniƣa buzƣunqiliⱪ ⱪilidiƣanlar.
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 Ⱨǝⱪⱪaniy Pǝrwǝrdigar uning otturisididur; U ⱨeq ⱨǝⱪⱪaniyǝtsizlik ⱪilmaydu; Ⱨǝr ǝtigǝndǝ adil ⱨɵkümini ayan ⱪilidu; Ⱨɵkümidǝ kǝmqilik yoⱪtur; Biraⱪ namǝrd adǝm ⱨeq nomusni bilmǝydu.
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 — Mǝn ǝllǝrni üzüp taxliwǝtkǝnmǝn, Ularning istiⱨkam potǝyliri wǝyranidur; Koqilirini ⱨeqbir adǝm ɵtmigüdǝk ⱪilip harabǝ ⱪilƣanmǝn; Xǝⱨǝrliri adǝmzatsiz, ⱨeq turƣuqisi yoⱪ ⱪilinip ⱨalak bolƣan.
[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 Mǝn: «Pǝⱪǝt Mǝndin ⱪorⱪunglar, tǝrbiyini ⱪobul ⱪilinglar» — dedim. Xundaⱪ bolƣanda uningƣa ⱨǝmmǝ bekitkǝnlirim qüxürülmǝy, makani ⱨeq haniwǝyran bolmas. Biraⱪ ular baldurla ornidin turup, ⱨǝmmǝ ixlirini ⱨaram ⱪiliwǝtti.
[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 Xunga Meni kütünglar, — dǝydu Pǝrwǝrdigar, Mǝn guwaⱨliⱪ berixkǝ ornumdin ⱪozƣalƣan küngiqǝ — Qünki Mening ⱪararim — ǝllǝrni yiƣix, Padixaⱨliⱪlarni jǝm ⱪilixtin ibarǝtki, Ularning üstigǝ ⱪǝⱨrimni, Ⱨǝmmǝ dǝⱨxǝtlik aqqiⱪimni bexiƣa tɵküx üqündur. Qünki yǝr yüzining ⱨǝmmisi aqqiⱪ ƣǝzipimning oti bilǝn kɵydürüwetilidu.
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 Qünki xu tapta barliⱪ ǝllǝrning Pǝrwǝrdigarining namiƣa nida ⱪilip qaⱪirixi üqün, Uning hizmitidǝ bir jan bir tǝn boluxi üqün, Mǝn ularning tilini sap bir tilƣa aylandurimǝn,
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 Qünki Efiopiyǝ dǝryalirining nerisidin Mening dua-tilawǝtqilirim, Yǝni Mǝn tarⱪatⱪanlarning ⱪizi, Manga sunulƣan ⱨǝdiyǝni epkelidu.
[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 Xu küni sǝn Manga asiyliⱪ ⱪilƣan barliⱪ ⱪilmixliring tüpǝylidin iza tartip ⱪalmaysǝn; Qünki xu tapta Mǝn tǝkǝbburluⱪungdin huxallinip kǝtkǝnlǝrni arangdin elip taxlaymǝn, Xuning bilǝn sǝn muⱪǝddǝs teƣim tüpǝylidin ⱨalingni ikkinqi qong ⱪilmaysǝn;
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 Wǝ Mǝn arangda kǝmtǝr ⱨǝm miskin bir hǝlⱪni ⱪaldurimǝn, Ular Pǝrwǝrdigarning namiƣa tayinidu.
Those who are still alive in Israel will be poor and humble; they will be people who trust in me [MTY].
13 Israilning ⱪaldisi nǝ ⱪǝbiⱨlik ⱪilmaydu, Nǝ yalƣan sɵzlimǝydu, Nǝ ularning aƣzidin aldamqi til tepilmaydu; Ular bǝlki ozuⱪlinip, yatidu, Ⱨeqkim ularni ⱪorⱪutmaydu.
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-yaxna, i Zion ⱪizi! Tǝntǝnǝ ⱪilip warⱪira, i Israil! Pütün ⱪǝlbing bilǝn huxal bolup xadlan, i Yerusalemning ⱪizi!
You people who live in Jerusalem [DOU] and [other places in] Israel, sing and shout loudly! Be glad, and rejoice [DOU] greatly,
15 Pǝrwǝrdigar seni jazalaydiƣan ⱨɵkümlǝrni elip taxlidi, Düxminingni ⱪayturuwǝtti; Israilning padixaⱨi Pǝrwǝrdigar arangdidur; Yamanliⱪni ikkinqi kɵrmǝysǝn.
[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 Xu küni Yerusalemƣa eytiliduki, «Ⱪorⱪma, i Zion! Ⱪolliring boxap, sanggilap kǝtmisun!
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 Pǝrwǝrdigar Hudaying arangda, Ⱪutⱪuzidiƣan ⱪudrǝt Igisidur! U xadliⱪ bilǝn üstüngdǝ xadlinidu; Ɵz meⱨir-muⱨǝbbitidǝ aram alidu; Üstüngdǝ nahxilar eytip yayrap-yaxnaydu.
[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 jǝmiyǝt sorunliridiki nomussiz ibadǝt tüpǝylidin aranglardin azablanƣanlarni yiƣimǝn; Bularning xǝrmǝndilikliri ularƣa eƣir kelǝtti.
[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, Mǝn xu tapta seni harliƣanlarning ⱨǝmmisini bir tǝrǝp ⱪilimǝn, Aⱪsaⱪ bolƣan ⱪizni ⱪutⱪuzimǝn; Talaƣa ⱨǝydiwetilgǝn ⱪizni yiƣimǝn; Dǝl ular horlanƣan barliⱪ zeminlarda ularni [Ɵzümgǝ] mǝdⱨiyǝ kǝltürgüqi, xɵⱨrǝt bolƣuqi ⱪilip tiklǝymǝn.
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 Mǝn xu tapta, yǝni silǝrni yiƣⱪan waⱪitta, silǝrni [ɵygǝ] epkelimǝn; Qünki Mǝn kɵz aldinglarda silǝrni asarǝttin azadliⱪⱪa qiⱪarƣinimda, Silǝrni yǝr yüzidiki barliⱪ ǝllǝr arisida xɵⱨrǝtlik, [Ɵzǝmgǝ] mǝdⱨiyǝ kǝltürgüqi ⱪilimǝn, — dǝydu Pǝrwǝrdigar.
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.”
