Zekaria 9

1 Fweny: Ma e wach mar Jehova Nyasaye mosechano kumogo piny Hadrak kaachiel gi jo-Damaski, nikech piny duto en mar Nyasaye kaachiel gi jo-Israel,

The burden of the word of the LORD upon the land of Hadrach, and Damascus [shall be] its resting place: for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward the LORD:

2 bende osechano kumo Hamath mokiewo kode kaachiel gi Turo kod Sidon kata obedo ni gin gilony ahinya kamano.

and Hamath also which bordereth thereon: Tyre and Zidon, because she is very wise.

3 Turo osegero kar pondo mare motegno; kendo osechoko fedha, gi dhahabu modhurore ka pith.

And Tyre did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

4 To Jehova Nyasaye biro maye mwandune mi oketh tekone ma en-go e nam, kendo ibiro tieke gi mach.

Behold, the Lord will dispossess her, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.

5 Ashkelon biro neno mi oluor; piny Gaza kod Ekron biro yware e masira, nikech geno margi biro rumo. Ruodh Gaza biro tho kendo dala mar Ashkelon biro dongʼ gunda.

Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also, and shall be sore pained; and Ekron, for her expectation shall be ashamed: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

6 Jopinje mamoko nokaw Ashdod milok margi kendo abiro tieko sunga mar jo-Filistia.

And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

7 Abiro kawo remo oko e dhogi, nagol chiemo makwero e kind lekegi. Joma owe biro bedo jo-Nyasachwa; ginibed jotelo e piny Juda, kendo Ekron nochal gi jo-Jebus.

And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; and he also shall be a remnant for our God: and he shall be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

8 To abiro rito oda mondo kik wasigu mabayo monje, Jasand ji ok nochak obed gi loch ewi joga kendo, nikech koro an e jaritgi.

And I will encamp about mine house against the army, that none pass through or return: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.

9 Bed gi ilo maduongʼ, yaye nyar Sayun! Kog matek, yaye Nyar Jerusalem! Ne, Ruodhi biro iri gi tim makare, kolocho, kobolore, kendo koidho kanyna, kanyna matin, adier en mana nyathi punda.

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy king cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10 Abiro golo geche mag lweny oko e Efraim gi farese mag lweny bende abiro golo Jerusalem, kendo atunge mag lweny ibiro tur. Obiro kelo kwe ni ogendini. Lochne biro chakore e bath nam konchiel nyaka komachielo, kendo kochakore e Aora Yufrate nyaka e giko mar piny.

And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off; and he shall speak peace unto the nations: and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.

11 Abiro golo jogi motwe kagolo e bur matut maonge pi, nikech singruokna mane atimo kodu gi remo.

As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

12 Doguru kuondeu mochiel motegno, yaye joma otwe man-gi geno; nimar kata sani alando ni abiro dwokonu mwandu magu mane oyaki nyadiriyo.

Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee.

13 Abiro lworo Juda mana kaka adolo atungʼ mara, kendo anaket Efraim obed asere. Asekawo yawuoti, yaye Sayun, ma alokogi ligangla ma akedogo gi jo-Yunani, kendo abiro loki ligangla mar kedo.

For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man.

14 Bangʼ mano Jehova Nyasaye nonere ratiro koa malo ne joge kendo nochiel asere mare ka mil polo. Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto biro goyo tungʼ mi odhi ka en ei ahiti moa yo milambo,

And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

15 kendo Jehova Nyasaye Maratego nobednegi okumba. Ginilo lweny mi ginyon kite mag orujre piny. Ginigo koko ka joma ometho momer kendo ginineg ji ma rembgi chwer, mana ka remb misango miolo e tunge kendo mar misango.

The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine: and they shall be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.

16 Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi noresgi chiengʼno mana kaka jakwath reso jambe. Ginirieny e pinye ka kite ma nengogi tek mikete osimbo mar duongʼ mondo omil.

And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted on high over his land.

17 Mano kaka ginibed joma lombo ji kendo joma beyo! Cham gi divai nomi yawuotgi gi nyigi, bed gi del maber.

For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maids.
