< Zekaria 14 >

1 Odiechiengʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye biro ma nopogie giu duto moyaki ka uneno.
Watch out! For the day of the Lord is coming when what has been plundered from you will be divided up right in front of you.
2 Abiro choko pinje duto mi akelgi Jerusalem mondo giked kode. Dala maduongʼ mar Jerusalem nokaw, udi manie iye noyaki, kendo mon noterruokgo githuon. Nus mar joma odak e dala maduongʼno noter e twech, to ji duto modongʼ ok nogol e dala.
I will bring together all the nations to attack Jerusalem. The city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women raped. Half the population will be taken into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.
3 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowuog oko kendo noked gi pinjego, kaka okedo e sa lweny.
Then the Lord will go out to fight against the nations as he fights in times of war.
4 Chiengʼno, Jehova Nyasaye nochungʼ ewi Got Zeituni mantiere yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jerusalem. To Got mar Zeituni-no nopogre nyadiriyo chakre wuok chiengʼ nyaka podho chiengʼ milos holo maduongʼ. Nus mar godno nomukre kochomo yo nyandwat, to nus machielo ochomo yo milambo.
On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives which faces Jerusalem to the east. The Mount of Olives will split apart, with half moving north and half moving south, creating a wide valley from east to west.
5 To unutony kuluwo holono, nikech enoyawre nyaka Azel. Unuring utony mana kaka ne uringo ka utony ne yiengni piny mane otimore ndalo loch Uzia ruodh Juda. Eka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasacha nobi, ka jomaler duto ni kode.
You will run away through this mountain valley for it will reach as far as Azal. You will run away like people did at the time of the earthquake during the reign of Uzzah, king of Judah. Then the Lord will come, accompanied by all his holy ones.
6 Chiengʼno ler kata koyo kata ngʼich ok nobedie.
On that day there will be no longer cold and frost.
7 Enobed odiechiengʼ ma kite yore, maonge gi odiechiengʼ kata otieno. En odiechiengʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye kende ema ongʼeyo kore. Sa monego piny imre ema ler mar chiengʼ nobedie.
It will be one continuous day (only the Lord knows how this could happen). It won't be day or night, because in the evening it will still be light.
8 Chiengʼno pi makelo ngima nomol koa Jerusalem, ka nusne ochomo nam ma yo podho chiengʼ. Pigno nosik kamol kinde duto, ndalo oro kata ndalo chwiri.
On that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of it going east to the Dead Sea and half going west to the Mediterranean Sea, flowing in summer and winter alike.
9 Jehova Nyasaye nobed gi loch e piny duto. Chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nobed achiel, kendo nyinge nobed achiel kende.
The Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day there will be one true Lord, and his name the only one.
10 Piny duto, chakre Geba nyaka Rimon, yo milambo mar Jerusalem nobed machal gi Araba. To Jerusalem notingʼ malo, kendo enosik kama entie, chakre dhoranga Benjamin kidhi e Dhorangach Mokwongo nyaka e Dhorangach manie kona; kendo koa e ohinga mar Hananel ma gin kuonde biyo mzabibu mar ruoth.
The whole land will be transformed into a plain, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem. But Jerusalem will be raised up to where it was, and people will live there from the Benjamin Gate to where the old gate was, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.
11 Ji nodag kanyo; ok nochak okethe kendo. Jerusalem nobed kama ji odakie gi kwe.
It will be inhabited and never again condemned to destruction again—people will be able to live in safety in Jerusalem.
12 Masira ma Jehova Nyasaye biro goyogo pinje duto mosebedo kakedo gi Jerusalem en ma: Ringregi biro tow ka gichungʼ, wengegi biro tow, kendo lewgi biro tow ei dhogi.
This will be the plague that the Lord will use to strike all the nations that attacked Jerusalem. Their flesh shall rot while they are still standing on their feet; their eyes will rot in their sockets; their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 Chiengʼno Jehova Nyasaye nogo ji gi kihondko maduongʼ. Ngʼato ka ngʼato nomak wadgi mondo ogorego.
On that day the Lord will strike them with a terrible panic, and they will seize one another, and fight hand-to-hand.
14 Juda bende noked Jerusalem. Mwandu mag pinje duto molworo dalano nochoki, ma gin dhahabu, fedha kod lewni mogundho.
Even Judah will fight in Jerusalem. The wealth of the surrounding nations shall be collected: lots of gold, silver, and clothes.
15 Masira machal kamano bende nogo farese, nyithi punde, ngamia, punde, kaachiel gi le duto ma noyudre e kembnigo.
A similar plague will strike the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all other animals that may be in their camps.
16 Eka joma otony moa e pinje duto mosemonjo Jerusalem nodhi e got zeituni higa ka higa mondo olam Ruoth Nyasaye, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, kendo mondo gitim Sawo mar Kiche.
After this every one of the survivors from the nations that attacked Jerusalem will go there to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.
17 Kapo ni moko kuom ogendini mag piny otamore dhi Jerusalem mondo olam Ruoth, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, to koth ok nochwenigi.
If any of the peoples of the world refuse to go to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, they will have no rain.
18 Ka jo-Misri ok odhi e dalano to koth ok nochwenigi. Jehova Nyasaye nokel kuomgi kit masiche machal gi mago mane oketo kuom oganda mane ok dhi mondo otim Sawo mar Kiche.
If the Egyptian people refuse to go and attend, then the Lord will inflict on them the same plague as on the other nations who will not go celebrate the Festival of Shelters.
19 Ma e kum ma ibiro kumogo jo-Misri kod ogendini mamoko ma ok odhi Jerusalem mondo otim Sawo mar Kiche.
This will be the punishment on Egypt and all the nations if they do not go to Jerusalem and celebrate.
20 Chiengʼno okode motwe e ngʼut farese bende nondikie ni mowal ni Jehova Nyasaye kendo agulni mitedogo ei hekalu bende nowal ne tich Jehova Nyasaye mana ka tewni mitiyogo e kendo mar misango.
On that day the bells worn by horses will be engraved with the words “Holy to the Lord.” The household cooking pots used in the Lord's Temple will be as holy as the bowls used on the altar in the presence of the Lord.
21 Agulni duto man Jerusalem kod Juda nobed maler ni Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, kendo ji duto mabiro mondo otim misango nokaw agulnigo moko mi gitedie igi. To chiengʼno jo-Kanaan moro amora ok nobedi e od Jehova Nyasaye Maratego.
Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord Almighty, so that everyone who comes to sacrifice can take them and cook their sacrificial meat in them. On that day there will no longer be traders in the Lord's Temple.
