1 Darius kah a kum bae, a hla rhet vaengah, Iddo koca Berekiah capa tonghma Zekhariah taengah BOEIPA ol cet tih,
Ngenyanga yesificaminwemibili yomnyaka wesibili kaDariyu, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kumphrofethi uZakhariya indodana kaBherekhiya, indodana ka-Ido lisithi:
2 “BOEIPA he a thintoek tih na pa rhoek taengah thinhulnah om.
“UThixo wazondiswa kakhulu ngokhokho benu.
3 Te dongah amih te thui pah. Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Caempuei BOEIPA loh, “Kai taengla ha mael uh lamtah nangmih taengla ka mael ni,” a ti.
Ngakho tshela abantu uthi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla: ‘Buyelani kimi,’ kutsho uThixo uSomandla, ‘lami ngizabuya kini,’ utsho njalo uThixo uSomandla.
4 Na pa rhoek bangla om uh boeh. Amih te tonghma lamhma rhoek loh a khue uh tih, “Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui na longpuei thae lamloh mael uh laeh. Na khoboe neh na khoboe thae rhoe mah,’ a ti. Tedae hnatun uh pawt tih kai taengah a hnatung uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
Lingabi njengabokhokho benu, okwatsho kubo abaphrofethi bamandulo, bathi: Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Phendukani ezindleleni zenu zobubi lezenzo zenu ezimbi.’ Kodwa kabafunanga ukulalela loba ukukunanza okwakutshiwo, kutsho uThixo.
5 Na pa rhoek te melae? Tonghma rhoek khaw kumhal ah hing uh nim?
Bangaphi manje okhokho benu na? Bona abaphrofethi kambe baphila okungapheliyo na?
6 Ka ol neh ka oltlueh he ka sal tonghma rhoek ka uen dae ta. Na pa rhoek loh kae uh pawt tih nim a mael uh? Te vaengah, “Mamih kah longpuei bangla mamih taengah saii ham neh mamih kah khoboe bangla caempuei BOEIPA loh a mangtaeng tih mamih taengah a saii tangloeng coeng,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
Kodwa amazwi ami lemithetho yami engangilaye ngakho izinceku zami abaphrofethi kakuzange kuze kubafice yini okhokho benu? Kwayikhona bephenduka besithi, ‘UThixo uSomandla wenzile kithi okufanele izindlela zethu lezenzo njengalokho amisa ukukwenza.’”
7 Darius kah a kum bae nah, hla hlai khat, Shebat hla hnin kul hnin li vaengah, BOEIPA ol te Iddo koca Berekiah capa tonghma Zekhariah taengla cet tih a thui.

8 “Khoyin kah ka hmuh dongah hlang te marhang ling dongah tarha ana ngol. Anih te cuihal ding kah a cok ah pai. A hnukkah marhang rhoek tah a ling, a pol neh a bok om.
Ebusuku ngafikelwa ngumbono, khonapho phambi kwami kwakulendoda egade ibhiza elibomvu! Yayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zomethile edongeni. Ngemva kwayo kwakulamanye amabhiza, elibomvu, eliyinsundu lelimhlophe.
9 Te vaengah, “Ka boeipa balae he,” ka ti nah. Te vaengah kai taengah aka cal puencawn loh kai taengah, “Amih rhoek balae ti khaw kamah loh nang kan tueng eh?,” a ti.
Ngayibuza ngathi, “Kuyini lokhu, nkosi yami na?” Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yaphendula yathi, “Ngizakutshengisa ukuthi kuyini.”
10 Te phoeiah cuihal ding kah aka pai hlang loh a doo tih, “He rhoek he diklai ah pongpa hamla BOEIPA loh a tueih coeng,” a ti.
Kwasekusithi leyondoda eyayimi ezihlahleni zomethile yachaza yathi, “Laba yibo uThixo abathumileyo ukuba bahambe emhlabeni wonke.”
11 Te vaengah cuihal ding kah aka pai BOEIPA puencawn te a doo uh tih, “Diklai ah ka pongpa uh coeng dae diklai pum kah khosa khaw mong ngawn ke,” a ti uh.
Basebebika engilosini kaThixo eyayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zomethile bathi, “Sesiwuhambile wonke umhlaba safumana ukuthi ilizwe lihlezi kuhle phakathi kokuthula.”
12 Te dongah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh a doo tih, “Caempuei BOEIPA aw, Jerusalem neh Judah khopuei rhoek te me hil nim na haidam pawt ve? Te te kum sawmrhih kosi na hong thil coeng,” a ti nah.
Ingilosi kaThixo yasisithi, “Thixo Somandla, koze kube nini ulokhu ugodla isihawu sakho phezu kweJerusalema lamadolobho akoJuda olokhu uwathukuthelele yonke iminyaka le engamatshumi ayisikhombisa?”
13 Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai taengah aka cal puencawn te hloephoelhnah ol then ol neh a doo.
Ngakho uThixo wasekhuluma amazwi omusa, aduduzayo kuleyongilosi eyayikhuluma lami.
14 Te phoeiah kai taengah aka cal puencawn loh kai taengah, “Khue lamtah, 'Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem ham ka thatlai tih Zion ham khaw thatlainah len.
Kwasekusithi ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yathi, “Memezela leli ilizwi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Ngilobukhwele ngeJerusalema leZiyoni,
15 Tedae kai he namtom hlang aka lawn taengah thinhul bat la ka thintoek. Ka thintoek khaw yol dae amih loh boethae te a koei uh.
kodwa ngizondile ngalezozizwe ezihlezi zanaba zaziba. Ngangithukuthele kancane kodwa zawengezelela lowo monakalo.’
16 Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem la haidamnah neh ka mael ni. A khuiah ka im a sak ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Jerusalem te rhilam rhui ka toe ni, 'ti nah.
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Ngizabuya eJerusalema ngilomusa, khonapho indlu yami izakwakhiwa kutsha. Intambo yesilinganiso izakwelulwa eJerusalema,’ kutsho uThixo uSomandla.
17 Koep pang lamtah, 'Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka khopuei rhoek ah hnothen neh baesawt pueng ni. BOEIPA loh Zion te koep a hloep vetih Jerusalem te koep a coelh ni, ' a ti nah,” a ti.
Memezela njalo uthi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Amadolobho ami azaphinda njalo aphuphume ngenotho, njalo uThixo uzaphinda ayiduduze iZiyoni, ayikhethe iJerusalema.’”
18 Te phoeiah ka mik te ka huel tih ka sawt hatah ki pali lawt ka hmuh.
Ngase ngiphakamisa amehlo ami, phambi kwami kwakulempondo ezine!
19 Te dongah kai taengah aka cal puencawn te, “Balae he?” ka ti nah. Tedae kai taengah, “He ki rhoek loh Judah, Israel neh Jerusalem a thaek,” a ti.
Ngabuza ingilosi leyo eyayikhuluma lami, ngathi, “Kuyini lokhu?” Yaphendula yathi, “Lezi yizo impondo ezachitha uJuda, lo-Israyeli leJerusalema.”
20 Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai te kutthai pali n'tueng.
UThixo wasengitshengisa abakhandi abane.
21 Te vaengah, “Amih aka lo long he balae a saii eh?” ka ti nah. Te dongah, “He rhoek kah ki loh Judah te a thaek uh tih hlang ol bangla a lu khaw dangrhoek thai pawh. Tedae Judah khohmuen aka tlai thil tih aka thaek ki, namtom kah ki te omtoem ham neh amih te lakueng sak hamla ha pai uh,” a ti.
Ngabuza ngathi, “Laba bazekwenzani na?” Waphendula wathi, “Lezi yimpondo ezachitha uJuda ukuze angabikhona ovusa ikhanda, kodwa abakhandi balande ukuxegisa amadolo abo, bazilahlele phansi impondo lezi ezezizwe ezaphakamisa impondo zazo phezu kwelizwe lakoJuda ukuchitha abantu balo.”
