Zechariah 1
1 Darius vaipoh kumni le lha get channa Iddo themgao chapa Berechiah chapa Zechariah komma Pakai thupeh ahung lhungin hitin aseije.
In the eighth month, in the second year of Daryavesh, the word of the LORD came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying,
2 Napateu chunga Pakai alung hang lheh jingin ahi.
"The LORD was very displeased with your fathers.
3 Hijeh chun amaho kommah chun thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin ati, achutileh keijong nangho kom a kahung kile kitding ahi tin thaneipen Pakaiyin aseije.
Therefore tell them: Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Return to me,' says the LORD of hosts, 'and I will return to you,' says the LORD of hosts.
4 Napu napateo bangin chonhih’un, amaho jaha chu themgao hon lhang asap piuve, thaneipen Pakaiyin aseijin ase lamma nachon nauva kon leh thilse na bolnauva kon in hungkile kit’uvintin aseije. Ahivangin amahon angai pouvin khohsah injong anei pouve, tin Pakaiyin aseije.
Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'Return now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings;' but they did not hear, nor listen to me, says the LORD.
5 Napu napateu chu tuahi hoilamma umma hitauvem? Amaho leh themgao ho chu sotpeha thigamma ahitauve.
Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
6 Ahinlah epi hijongleh kalhachate themgao komma kana phondoh ho jouse chu napu napateu khanglaijin kaseibang bangin ana guilhung sohtan ahi. Hiche dungjui chun amahon kisih in alungu ana heijun, Eihon thaneipen Pakaija kon in imudiu lom imu tauve, Aman kahin bolding ahi ati dungjuijin ahin tongdoh tan ahi.
But my words and my statutes, which I commanded by my Spirit to my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? Then they repented and said, 'Just as the LORD of hosts determined to do to us, according to our ways, and according to our practices, so he has dealt with us.'"
7 Darius leng chan kumni lhinna shebath lha kehni somni leh ni li channin, themgao Iddo chapa Berachia chapa Zechariah komma Pakai thupeh ahung lhung in ahi.
On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Daryavesh, the word of the LORD came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the 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 had a vision in the night, and look, a man riding on a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in a ravine; and behind him there were red, brown, and white horses.
9 Keiman kakomma thusei vantil komma chun “ka Pakai hiche sakol hoipenhi ipi vetsah naham katin ahileh vantil chun na hetsah nang’e ati.
Then I asked, 'My lord, what are these?'" The angel who talked with me said to me, "I will show you what these are."
10 Hichun huisum thing laha ding mipa hin adonbut in, hicheng pihi Pakaiyin leiset pumpi khol le dinga asohdoh ahiuve ati.
The man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said to me, "They are the ones the LORD has sent to go back and forth through the earth."
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.
They reported to the angel of the LORD who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, "We have walked back and forth through the earth, and look, all the earth is at rest and in peace."
12 Hichehi ajah phatnin Pakai vantil chu hitihin ataove. Vo hatchungnung Pakai kum som sagi sung ahi nangma Jerusalem leh Judah khopiho chunga hung lung hanga nahitam, itih chan gei hi amaho chunga khotona na musah loulai ding ham.
Then the angel of the LORD replied, "O LORD of hosts, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which you have had indignation these seventy years?"
13 Keikoma thusei vantil komma chun Pakaiyin lungmonna thucheng in ana donbut in ahi.
The LORD answered the angel who talked with me with kind and comforting words.
14 Hitichun kakihoulimpi vantil chun kakomma hitin anasei jin ahi. Hatchungnung Pakai chun hitin aseije. Keiman Jerusalem le Zion phatna dinghi gelkhoh naleh khotona kanei lheh jing in ahi.
So the angel who talked with me said to me, "Proclaim, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
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.
I am very angry with the nations that are at ease; for I was but only a little angry, but they added to the calamity."
16 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, keima Jerusalema khotona neijin kahung kile tai. Kahouin kisa phading Chuleh Jerusalem kithah semphat ding ahi. tin hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseiye.
Therefore thus says the LORD: "I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy. My house will be built in it," says the LORD of hosts, "and a line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem."'
17 Hatchungnung Pakijin jong hitin aseiye, Israel khopi ho bulhingset a hung kile dohding chuteng leh Pakai Zion alung monsahding chuleh Jerusalema dinga alahlut ding ahi.
"Proclaim further, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "My cities will again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion, and will again choose Jerusalem."'"
18 Hijouchun kadah in kavetleh saki li kamui
I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, 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.
I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these?" He answered me, "These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem."
20 Chuin Pakaiyin thihkheng them mili eivetsah e.
The LORD showed me four craftsmen.
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.
Then I asked, "What are these coming to do?" He said, "These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations, which lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it."
