Sofoniya 2:1-15
2 Gumanyikanani, inde, gumanyikanani,+Imwe dzindza yakusowa manyadzo.+
2 Ntemo mbudzati kuphata basa,Ntsiku mbidzati kupita mwakucimbiza ninga mapwepwa akumburuswa na mphepo,Mbudzati kubwera kuna imwe ukali ukulu wa Yahova,+Mbidzati kubwera kuna imwe ntsiku yakuipirwa kwa Yahova,
3 Sakani Yahova,+ imweanthu onsene akupfulika* a pa dziko yapantsi,Imwe akuti musabvera mitemo yace yakulungama.*
Sakani ulungami, sakani kucepeseka.
Panango* imwe munadzabiswa pa ntsiku yakuipirwa kwa Yahova.+
4 Thangwi Gaza unadzakhala nzinda wakusowa anthu;Pontho Asikaloni anadzakhala madembe.+
Asidhodhe anadzathamangiswa dzuwa mbiri bvuu,*Pontho Ekroni anadzafudzwa.+
5 “Dzedze kuna ale anakhala nʼkhundu-nʼkhundu mwa bara, dzindza ya Akereti!+
Mafala a Yahova akusandikani.
Iwe Kanani, dziko ya Afilisti, ine ndinadzakufudza,Toera anthu akhonde kukhala pontho mu dziko yako.
6 Pontho nʼkhundu-nʼkhundu mwa bara munadzakhala mbuto yakudyesera pifuyo,Yakuti iri na micera ya nkumbizi na mathanga akucitwa na miyala a mabira.
7 Ceneci cinadzakhala cisa ca anthu anafuna kudzapulumuka a dzindza ya Yuda;+
Iwo anadzadya kweneko.
Namasiku iwo anadzagona mʼmanyumba a Asikaloni.
Thangwi Yahova Mulungu wawo anadzaatsalakana,Pontho iye anadzabweresa ale adaendeswa ku ubitcu.”+
8 “Ine ndabva kuxola kukhacita Moabhe,+ pontho ndabva kutikana kukhacita Aamoni,+Iwo akhatikana mbumba yanga mbaathusa kuti anaakwatira cisa cawo.+
9 Natenepa, ine ndiri kudumbira mu dzina yanga,” alonga Yahova wa anyankhondo, Mulungu wa Izraeli,Moabhe anadzakhala ninga Sodhoma,+Pontho Aamoni anadzakhala ninga Gomora,+Mbuto yakuti inamera tsanga yakupfika, mbuto ya mataka a munyu, pontho mbuto yakuti kwenda na kwenda inadzakhala yakusowa anthu.+
Ale anafuna kusala a mbumba yanga anadzatapata pinthu pyawo,Pontho ale anafuna kusala a dzindza yanga anadzakwata dziko yawo.
10 Pyenepi pinadzaacitikira thangwi ya kudzikuza kwawo,+Thangwi iwo asatikana, pontho asadzikuza kakamwe pakati pa mbumba ya Yahova wa anyankhondo.
11 Yahova anadzacita pinthu pyakudzumisa kuna iwo;Thangwi iye anadzafudza alungu onsene a pa dziko yapantsi,Madzindza onsene anakhala ntsuwa anadzagodama pamaso pace,*+Mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi pa mbuto yace.
12 Imwe anthu a ku Etiopya munadzaphiwambo na supada yanga.+
13 Iye anafuthula djanja yace kukhundu yakunkwiriro mbipha Asirya,Pontho iye anadzacitisa nzinda wa Ninive kukhala madembe,+ mbukhala wakusowa madzi ninga thando.
14 Pinyama pyonsene pya ntsanga pinadzagona pakati pa nzinda unoyu.
Namasiku, bvuwo-bvuwo na nungu anadzagona pa mizati yakugwa ya nzinda unoyu.
Kulira* kwa mbalame kunadzabveka na pa janela.
Pantsi pa misuwo panadzaoneka madongolomwa;Thangwi iye anadzabulusa matabwa a sedhro akhadaikhwa pa pfufu.
15 Unoyu ndi nzinda wakudzikuza wakuti ukakhala mwakutsidzikizika,Pontho ukhalonga muntima mwawo: ‘Ine ndine wakufunika kakamwe, nkhabepo unango ninga ine.’
Iwo wadzakhala nzinda wakugopswa kakamwe,Mbuto inagona pinyama pya ntsanga!
Anthu onsene anafuna kudzapita na penepo anadzaimba ciruzwi mbasukusa nsolo.”+
