Zekariah 6
1 Angqoi moe, ka doeng tahang let naah, khenah, mae hnetto salak hoiah angzo hrang lakok hnetto ka hnuk; to mae loe sum tacawthaih mae ah oh o.
And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
2 Hmaloe ih hrang lakoknawk loe kathim hrangnawk mah ruet o; hnetto haih hrang lakok loe kamnum hrangnawk mah ruet o;
The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,
3 thumto haih hrang lakok loe kanglung hrangnawk mah ruet o moe, palito haih hrang lakok loe aem kaom kanglung bok hrangnawk mah ruet o.
the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.
4 Kai hoi lokpae van kami khaeah, Ka angraeng, hae hmuennawk loe tih thuih koehhaih ih aa? tiah ka naa.
So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
5 Van kami mah kai khaeah, Hae hmuennawk loe long pum ukkung Angraeng hmaa hoiah tacawt, van muithla sarihto thuih koehhaih ih ni.
And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Kamnum hrang loe aluek bang prae ah caeh, kanglung hrangnawk loe nihcae hnukah bang o, aem kaom hrangnawk loe aloih bang prae ah caeh o.
The one with the black horses is going toward the land of the north, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
7 Hrangnawk loe caeh o, long pum ahnuk ahma caeh hanah koeh o: to naah anih mah, Long pum ah caeh oh, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae loe long pum ahnuk ahma caeh o boih.
As the strong horses went out, they were eager to go and patrol the earth; and the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth.” So they patrolled the earth.
8 To pacoengah anih mah kai khaeah, Khenah, aluek bang prae ah kacaeh hrangnawk mah aluek bang prae ah Ka muithla to monghaih paek boeh, tiah ang naa.
Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”
9 Angraeng ih lok kai khaeah angzoh:
The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
10 misong ah ohhaih Babylon prae hoiah amlaem Heldai, Tobijah hoi Jedaih khaeah caeh oh; sui hoi sum kanglung to lak o pacoengah, to na niah Zephaniah capa Josiah ih im ah caeh oh;
“Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon—and go that same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.
11 sui hoi sum kanglung to la oh, angraeng lumuek to sah oh loe, Jehozadak capa kalen qaima, Joshua ih lu ah angmuek o sak ah;
Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak.
12 misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah, Khenah, TANGHANG, tiah ahmin kaom kami loe, a ohhaih ahmuen hoiah tanghang to tacawt tahang ueloe, Angraeng ih tempul to sah tih:
And you are to tell him that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Here is a man whose name is the Branch, and He will branch out from His place and build the temple of the LORD.
13 anih mah Angraeng ih tempul to sah tih; anih loe lensawkhaih hoiah amthoep ueloe, uk hanah angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu tih; anih loe angmah ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah qaima ah om tih: nihnik loe angdaehhaih sah hoi tih, tiah thuih, tiah thui paeh, tiah ang naa.
Yes, He will build the temple of the LORD; He will be clothed in splendor and will sit on His throne and rule. And He will be a priest on His throne, and there will be peaceful counsel between the two.’
14 Angraeng lumuek loe, panoek poe hanah Angraeng ih tempul ah suem oh, to lumuek loe Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah hoi Zephaniah capa Hen cae hanah om tih.
The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.
15 Ahmuen kangthla ah kaom kaminawk to angzo o ueloe, Angraeng ih tempul to sak abomh o tih, to naah misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng mah nangcae khaeah kai patoeh, tito na panoek o tih. Angraeng na Sithaw ih lok to kahoih ah na tahngai o nahaeloe to tiah om tih, tiah a naa.
Even those far away will come and build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.”
