In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, hath a word of Jehovah been unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
2 Napateu chunga Pakai alung hang lheh jingin ahi.
'Jehovah was wroth against your fathers — wrath!
3 Hijeh chun amaho kommah chun thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin ati, achutileh keijong nangho kom a kahung kile kitding ahi tin thaneipen Pakaiyin aseije.
And thou hast said unto them, Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, turn back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And I turn back unto you, said Jehovah of Hosts.

Ye shall not be as your fathers, To whom the former prophets called, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Turn back I pray you, From your evil ways and from your evil doings, And they did not hearken, Nor attend to Me — an affirmation of Jehovah.
5 Napu napateu chu tuahi hoilamma umma hitauvem? Amaho leh themgao ho chu sotpeha thigamma ahitauve.
Your fathers — where [are] they? And the prophets — to the age do they live?

Only, My words, and My statutes, That I commanded My servants the prophets, Have they not overtaken your fathers, And they turn back and say: As Jehovah of Hosts designed to do to us, According to our ways, and according to our doings, So He hath done to us?'

On the twenty and fourth day of the eleventh month, (it [is] the month of Sebat, ) in the second year of Darius, hath a word of Jehovah been unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
8 Keiman phaicham khatnah huisum thing laha sakol sankhat anadingin achung a pasal khat ana tou chu jan nin gaovin kanamun ahi. Anunglamma chun sakol asan, abuong chuleh akaang jong ana ummin ahi.
I have seen by night, and lo, one riding on a red horse, and he is standing between the myrtles that [are] in the shade, and behind him [are] horses, red, bay, and white.

And I say, 'What [are] these, my lord?' And the messenger who is speaking with me saith unto me, 'I — I do shew thee what these [are].'
10 Hichun huisum thing laha ding mipa hin adonbut in, hicheng pihi Pakaiyin leiset pumpi khol le dinga asohdoh ahiuve ati.
And the one who is standing between the myrtles doth answer and say, 'These [are] they whom Jehovah hath sent to walk up and down in the land.'
11 Huisum phung laha ding Pakai vantil komma chun sakol chunga tou adangho chun aseijun, “keihon leiset pumpi ka khollun, leiset chunghi lungmong in aum nauve”atiuve.
And they answer the messenger of Jehovah who is standing between the myrtles, and say, 'We have walked up and down in the land, and lo, all the land is sitting still, and at rest.'

And the messenger of Jehovah answereth and saith, 'Jehovah of Hosts! till when dost Thou not pity Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, that Thou hast abhorred these seventy years?'

And Jehovah answereth the messenger, who is speaking with me, good words, comfortable words.

And the messenger who is speaking with me, saith unto me, 'Call, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: I have been zealous for Jerusalem, and for Zion [with] great zeal.
15 Keiman tu tua chamna leh lungmonga um namdang ho komma kalung ahang lheh jeng in kamite chunga vang kaha lunghan pon ahi. Namdang hohin aha bolset val tauvin ahi.
And [with] great wrath I am wroth against the nations who are at ease, For I was a little wroth, and they assisted — for evil.

Therefore, thus said Jehovah: I have turned to Jerusalem with mercies, My house is built in it, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And a line is stretched over Jerusalem.

Again call, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Again do my cities overflow from good, And Jehovah hath again comforted Zion, And He hath fixed again on Jerusalem.'
18 Hijouchun kadah in kavetleh saki li kamui
And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, four horns.
19 Keima eiki houlimpi vantil kom achun hichehi ipi tina ham tia kadohleh, aman eidonbut in,” hiche saki hohin chitin namtin laha Judah, Israel chuleh Jerusalem ana lhocheh a chu ahiuve.
And I say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'What [are] these?' And he saith unto me, 'These [are] the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.'

And Jehovah doth shew me four artisans.
21 Amaho hi ipi dinga hung hiuvam tia ka doh leh, vantil chun eidonbut in, hiche saki le nam ho hi Judahte muntinna ana thecheh ana sunem ho chu ahiuve. Tun hiche thihkheng them hohin hiche nam hohi kichatsah a sonlhu ding leh sumang dinga hung ahiuve ati.
And I say, 'What [are] these coming in to do?' And He speaketh, saying: 'These [are] the horns that have scattered Judah, so that no one hath lifted up his head, and these come in to trouble them, to cast down the horns of the nations who are lifting up a horn against the land of Judah — to scatter it.'
