1.
הוֹי מֹרְאָה, וְנִגְאָלָה--הָעִיר, הַיּוֹנָה.
Hoy mor'ah, venig'alah--ha'ir, hayonah.
Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
Hebrew to Tamil - Zephaniah - Chapter 3
← Homeof 3
2.
לֹא שָׁמְעָה בְּקוֹל, לֹא לָקְחָה מוּסָר; בַּיהוָה לֹא בָטָחָה, אֶל-אֱלֹהֶיהָ לֹא קָרֵבָה.
Lo shame'ah bekool, lo lake'ah musar; bayHWH lo vatahakh, el-Eloheya lo karevah.
She hearkened not to the voice, she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD, she drew not near to her God.
3.
שָׂרֶיהָ בְקִרְבָּהּ, אֲרָיוֹת שֹׁאֲגִים; שֹׁפְטֶיהָ זְאֵבֵי עֶרֶב, לֹא גָרְמוּ לַבֹּקֶר.
Sareya vekirbah, arayot sho'agim; shofteya ze'eve erev, lo garmu laboker.
Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are wolves of the desert, they leave not a bone for the morrow.
4.
נְבִיאֶיהָ, פֹּחֲזִים, אַנְשֵׁי, בֹּגְדוֹת; כֹּהֲנֶיהָ, חִלְּלוּ-קֹדֶשׁ, חָמְסוּ, תּוֹרָה.
Nevi'eya, pohazim, anshei, bogdot; kohaneyha, khillulu-kodesh, khamsu, torah.
Her prophets are wanton and treacherous persons; her priests have profaned that which is holy, they have done violence to the law.
5.
יְהוָה צַדִּיק בְּקִרְבָּהּ, לֹא יַעֲשֶׂה עַוְלָה; בַּבֹּקֶר בַּבֹּקֶר מִשְׁפָּטוֹ יִתֵּן לָאוֹר, לֹא נֶעְדָּר, וְלֹא-יוֹדֵעַ עַוָּל, בֹּשֶׁת.
YHWH tzadik bekirbah, lo ya'aseh avlah; baboker baboker mishpato yiten la'or, lo ne'dar, velo-yode'a aval, boshet.
The LORD who is righteous is in the midst of her, He will not do unrighteousness; every morning doth He bring His right to light, it faileth not; but the unrighteous knoweth no shame.
6.
הִכְרַתִּי גוֹיִם, נָשַׁמּוּ פִּנּוֹתָם--הֶחֱרַבְתִּי חוּצוֹתָם, מִבְּלִי עוֹבֵר; נִצְדּוּ עָרֵיהֶם מִבְּלִי-אִישׁ, מֵאֵין יוֹשֵׁב.
hikrati goyim, nashamuu pinotam--hekheravti khutzotam, mibeli over; nitzdu arehem mibeli-ish, me'ein yoshev.
I have cut off nations, their corners are desolate; I have made their streets waste, so that none passeth by; their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.
7.
אָמַרְתִּי אַךְ-תִּירְאִי אוֹתִי, תִּקְחִי מוּסָר, וְלֹא-יִכָּרֵת מְעוֹנָהּ, כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-פָּקַדְתִּי עָלֶיהָ; אָכֵן הִשְׁכִּימוּ הִשְׁחִיתוּ, כֹּל עֲלִילוֹתָם.
amarti akh-tir'i oti, tikhi musar, velo-yikaret me'onah, kol asher-pakadti aleha; akhen hishkimu hishtitu, kol alilotam.
I said: 'Surely thou wilt fear Me, thou wilt receive correction; so her dwelling shall not be cut off, despite all that I have visited upon her'; but they betimes corrupted all their doings.
8.
לָכֵן חַכּוּ-לִי נְאֻם-יְהוָה, לְיוֹם קוּמִי לְעַד: כִּי מִשְׁפָּטִי לֶאֱסֹף גּוֹיִם לְקָבְצִי מַמְלָכוֹת, לִשְׁפֹּךְ עֲלֵיהֶם זַעְמִי כֹּל חֲרוֹן אַפִּי--כִּי בְּאֵשׁ קִנְאָתִי, תֵּאָכֵל כָּל-הָאָרֶץ.
lakhen khaku-li neum-YHWH, leyom kumi le'ad: ki mishpati le'esof goyim le'kavtzi mamlakhot, lishpok alehem za'mi kol kharon api--ki be'esh kin'ati, te'akhel kol-ha'aretz.
Therefore wait ye for Me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey; for My determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them Mine indignation, even all My fierce anger; for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of My jealousy.
9.
כִּי-אָז אֶהְפֹּךְ אֶל-עַמִּים, שָׂפָה בְרוּרָה, לִקְרֹא כֻלָּם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה, לְעָבְדוֹ שְׁכֶם אֶחָד.
ki-az ehpokh el-amim, safah verurah, likro khulam beshem YHWH, le'avdo shekhem echad.
For then will I turn to the peoples a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve Him with one consent.
10.
מֵעֵבֶר, לְנַהֲרֵי-כוּשׁ--עֲתָרַי, בַּת-פּוּצַי, יוֹבִלוּן, מִנְחָתִי.
me'ever, lenaharei-kush--ataray, bat-putsay, yovilun, minchati.
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia shall they bring My suppliants, even the daughter of My dispersed, as Mine offering.
11.
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, לֹא תֵבוֹשִׁי מִכֹּל עֲלִילֹתַיִךְ, אֲשֶׁר פָּשַׁעַתְּ, בִּי: כִּי-אָז אָסִיר מִקִּרְבֵּךְ, עַלִּיזֵי גַּאֲוָתֵךְ, וְלֹא-תוֹסִפִי לְגָבְהָה עוֹד, בְּהַר קָדְשִׁי.
bayom hahu, lo tevoshi mikol alilotayikh, asher pasha'at, bi: ki-az asir mikirbekh, allizei ga'avatekh, velo-tosifi legavhah od, behar kodshi.
In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against Me; for then I will take away out of the midst of thee thy proudly exulting ones, and thou shalt no more be haughty in My holy mountain.
12.
וְהִשְׁאַרְתִּי בְקִרְבֵּךְ, עַם עָנִי וָדָל; וְחָסוּ, בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה.
vehisharti vekirbekh, am ani udal; vehasu, beshem YHWH.
And I will leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall take refuge in the name of the LORD.
13.
שְׁאֵרִית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא-יַעֲשׂוּ עַוְלָה, וְלֹא-יְדַבְּרוּ כָזָב, וְלֹא-יִמָּצֵא בְּפִיהֶם, לְשׁוֹן תַּרְמִית: כִּי-הֵמָּה יִרְעוּ וְרָבְצוּ, וְאֵין מַחֲרִיד.
She'erit Yisrael lo-ya'asu avlah, velo-yedabru khazav, velo-yimmatze befirhem, leshon tarmit: ki-hemmah yir'u veravtsu, ve'ein makharid.
The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies, neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth; for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
14.
רָנִּי, בַּת-צִיּוֹן--הָרִיעוּ, יִשְׂרָאֵל; שִׂמְחִי וְעָלְזִי בְּכָל-לֵב, בַּת יְרוּשָׁלִָם.
Ranni, bat-tziyon--hari'u, Yisrael; simkhi ve'alzi bekhol-lev, bat yerushalayim.
Sing, O daughter of Zion, shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
15.
הֵסִיר יְהוָה מִשְׁפָּטַיִךְ, פִּנָּה אֹיְבֵךְ; מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל יְהוָה בְּקִרְבֵּךְ, לֹא-תִירְאִי רָע עוֹד.
Hesir YHVH mishpatayikh, pinnah oyvekh; melekh Yisrael YHVH bekirbekikh, lo-tira'i ra od.
The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, He hath cast out thine enemy; The King of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee; thou shalt not fear evil any more.
16.
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, יֵאָמֵר לִירוּשָׁלִַם אַל-תִּירָאִי: צִיּוֹן, אַל-יִרְפּוּ יָדָיִךְ.
Bayyom hahu, ye'amer liyrushalam al-tira'i: tziyon, al-yirpu yadayikh.
In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: 'Fear thou not; O Zion, let not thy hands be slack.
17.
יְהוָה אֱלֹהַיִךְ בְּקִרְבֵּךְ, גִּבּוֹר יוֹשִׁיעַ; יָשִׂישׂ עָלַיִךְ בְּשִׂמְחָה, יַחֲרִישׁ בְּאַהֲבָתוֹ--יָגִיל עָלַיִךְ, בְּרִנָּה.
YHWH Elohayikh bekirbekh, gibor yoshi'a; yasish 'alayikh besimkha, yakharish be'ahavato--yagil 'alayikh, berinnah.
The LORD thy God is in the midst of thee, a Mighty One who will save; He will rejoice over thee with joy, He will be silent in His love, He will joy over thee with singing.'
18.
נוּגֵי מִמּוֹעֵד אָסַפְתִּי, מִמֵּךְ הָיוּ--מַשְׂאֵת עָלֶיהָ, חֶרְפָּה.
nugei mimo'ed asafti, mimekh hayu--mas'et 'aleiha, kherpah.
I will gather them that are far from the appointed season, who are of thee, that hast borne the burden of reproach.
19.
הִנְנִי עֹשֶׂה אֶת-כָּל-מְעַנַּיִךְ, בָּעֵת הַהִיא; וְהוֹשַׁעְתִּי אֶת-הַצֹּלֵעָה, וְהַנִּדָּחָה אֲקַבֵּץ, וְשַׂמְתִּים לִתְהִלָּה וּלְשֵׁם, בְּכָל-הָאָרֶץ בָּשְׁתָּם.
hinni 'oseh et-kol-me'anayikh, ba'et hahi; ve-hoshat'i et-hatzole'ah, ve-hanidakhah akabets, ve-samtim lithehillah u-leshem, bekhol-ha'aretz boshtam.
Behold, at that time I will deal with all them that afflict thee; and I will save her that is lame, and gather her that was driven away; and I will make them to be a praise and a name, whose shame hath been in all the earth.
20.
בָּעֵת הַהִיא אָבִיא אֶתְכֶם, וּבָעֵת קַבְּצִי אֶתְכֶם: כִּי-אֶתֵּן אֶתְכֶם לְשֵׁם וְלִתְהִלָּה, בְּכֹל עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ, בְּשׁוּבִי אֶת-שְׁבוּתֵיכֶם לְעֵינֵיכֶם, אָמַר יְהוָה.
ba'et hahi avi etkhem, uva'et kabtzi etkhem: ki-eten etkhem leshem velithehillah, bekhol 'ammei ha'aretz, beshuvi et-shevuteikhem le'eineikhem, amar YHWH.
At that time will I bring you in, and at that time will I gather you; for I will make you to be a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I turn your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.
