< Zechariah 6 >

1 Hijou chun keiman chunglang kaven ahileh sakol kangtalai li sumang molsang teni kikah a kon in ahung doh in ahi.
And I again lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, there came out four chariots from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of copper.
2 Sakol kangtalai masa chu sakol san in ahin kaijin, ani channa chu sakol vommin ahin kaijin ahi.
In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot, black horses:
3 Athum channa chu sakol kangin ahinkai jin, ali channa chu sakolpol hattah ahiuve.
And in the third chariot, white horses; and in the fourth chariot, grizzled, ash-colored horses.
4 Vantil eihoulimpi pachu ka dong in, Pakai hiche khopi hi ipi hitam ka tileh,
And I began and said unto the angel that spoke with me, What are these, my lord?
5 Vantil chun eidonbut in, “Hiche hohi leiset pumpi Pakai masanga ding lhagao li hochu ahiuve ati. Amahohi anatong dinga hung potdoh ahiuve.
And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth after having stood before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Sakol vommin akaihi sahlanga che ding, akang in akai hi lhumlama che ding chu leh apollin akaihi lhanglanga che ding ahi.
The [chariot] on which are black horses—these go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go forth toward the south country.
7 Hiche sakol hattah hohi leiset chung kholtoh leding a thanomtah a hung kipatdoh ahiuve. Chuleh Pakai chun aseijin,” cheuvin leiset chung gakhol tauvin” ati. Hiti chun amaho akhol toh din ache tauve.
And the red-colored were gone forth, and sought to traverse the earth: and he said, Go, traverse the earth. So they traversed the earth.
8 Hijou chun Pakaiyin eihin kouvin aseijin ahi, “Vetan, sahlang gamsunga dinga kitolho khu hiche sahlam gamsunga kalung hanna achen dai taovin ahi.
Then cried he loudly unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, Behold, these that are going toward the north country, have quieted [the indignation of] my spirit in the north country.
9 Pakai thupeh ka kom ah ahung lhung kitnin hitin aseije
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
10 Babylon gamma konna sohchang hundoh holah a kon in Heldai leh Tebiah chuleh Judiah hichenghi puijin lang hiche nikho ma chun Zephaniah chapa Josiah hengah chen ati.
Take from the exiles, from Cheldai, from Tobiyahu, and from Yeda'yah, and thou shalt come on the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephanyah, whither they have arrived from Babylon;
11 Chuteng leh dangka le sana la uvin lang lallukhuh sem un thempu chungnung Joshediah chapa Joshua chu khuhpeh un,
Take also silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak the high priest;
12 Chuleh ama komma hitin seijun, hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin hitin aseije, veuvin Abah kiti mikhat munna kon in hung khangtou tauvin tin chuteng leh aman Pakai Hou-in chu ahin tun doh ding ahi.
And thou shalt say unto him as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold a man, Sprout is his name; since out of his own place shall he sprout up, even he shall build the temple of the Lord:
13 Hichepa hin Pakai Hou-in asahdoh a loupina jong hung in chang ing chuleh alaltouna-a jong hung touva chuleh alaltouna-a chu thempua hung pang ding chuleh akikah lhonna chamnale lungmonna,
Yea, he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and a priest shall be upon his own throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between both of them.
14 Chuteng leh lallukhuh chu Pakai Hou-in sunga kikoija Heldai, Tebiah chu leh Zephaniah chapa Josiah hetdoh jingna dinga kikoi ding ahi.
And the crowns shall be for Chelem, and for Tobiyah, and for Yeda'yah, and for Chen the son of Zephanyah, as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
15 Hitia chu khol gamla tah a konna jong hung diu Pakai Hou-in sahna a hi hung pang ding, hiteng chuleh hatchungnung pen Pakaiyin eihinsol ahi ti nahet diu ahi. Nangin Pakai na Pathen thuthu nanunna ahileh hiti ahi hung guilhung ding ahi.
And distant ones shall come and build on the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God.
