< Zechariah 6 >

1 And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.
Nampiandraeko indraike o masokoo le nitalake vaho inge te nimb’eo ty sarete efatse boak’ an-jeba’ ty vohitse roe; haboan-torisìke i vohitse rey.
2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,
Soavala mena ty tamy sarete valoha’ey, naho soavala mainte ty tamy sarete faharoey,
3 the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.
naho soavala foty ty tamy sarete fahateloy vaho soavala maremboke maozatse ty tamy sarete fah’ efatsey.
4 So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”
Aa le hoe ty asako tamy anjely nisaontsy amakoy: Ino o raha reo, talèko?
5 And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i anjeliy ahy: Tion-dikerañe efatse mion­jomb’eo, boak’ amy nijohaña’e aolo’ i Talè’ ty tane-bey toiy.
6 The one with the black horses is going toward the land of the north, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”
Mionjoñe mb’ avaratse añe o an-tsoavala mainteo; manonjohy iareo o fotio; vaho mb’ atimo mb’eo o maroembokeo.
7 As the strong horses went out, they were eager to go and patrol the earth; and the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth.” So they patrolled the earth.
Nionjoñe i maozatse rey nipay hijelanjelañe an-tane atoy; le hoe re: Akia, mika­rio­karioha mb’eo mb’eo an-tane atoy. Aa le nihelahela nanitsike ty tane toy iereo.
8 Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”
Nikoik’ ahy re nanao ty hoe: Hehe te nampanintsiñe ty troko an-tane avara­tsey o mb’ an-tane avaratseo.
9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe:
10 “Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon—and go that same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.
Angalao amo mirohio, amo boake Kelday naho e Tobià naho e Iedaiào, amo boake Bavele añeo; le amy àndroy avao, miziliha an-kiboho’ Iosià ana’ i Tsefanià;
11 Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak.
naho andrambeso volafoty naho volamena vaho mitsenea sabaka fanjàka, le aombeo añambone’ Iehosoa mpisorom-bey ana’ Iehozadake;
12 And you are to tell him that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Here is a man whose name is the Branch, and He will branch out from His place and build the temple of the LORD.
le isaontsio ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy: Ingo t’indaty atao ty hoe Toramionjo: han­drevake boak’ an-toe’ey; ie ty hamboatse ty anjomba’ Iehovà;
13 Yes, He will build the temple of the LORD; He will be clothed in splendor and will sit on His throne and rule. And He will be a priest on His throne, and there will be peaceful counsel between the two.’
eka! ie ty handranjy ty kivoho’ Iehovà; naho ie ty hivave ty enge’e, naho hiambesatse vaho hifehe am-piambesa’e eo, ho mpisoroñe amy fiambesa’ey; naho añivo’ i roroey ty fanoroan-kanintsiñe.
14 The crown will reside in the temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and the gracious son of Zephaniah.
Ho faniahiañe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao ho a’ i Keleme, naho i Tobià, naho Iedaià, vaho i Kene ana’ i Tsefanià, i sabakay.
15 Even those far away will come and build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.”
Homb’ eo ka o tsietoitane añeo hamboatse añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao, vaho ho fohi’ areo te nirahe’ Iehovà’ i Màroy ama’ areo iraho. Ho tondroke izay naho orihe’ areo ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’areo.
