< Zechariah 10 >
1 Make your request to the Lord for rain in the time of the spring rains, even to the Lord who makes the thunder-flames; and he will give them showers of rain, to every man grass in the field.
Hooyai Jehova oirie mbura hĩndĩ ya kĩmera kĩa mbere; Jehova nĩwe ũtũmaga kũgĩe matu ma mbura ya kĩhuhũkanio. Nĩoiragĩria andũ mbura, na akahe mũndũ o wothe irio cia mũgũnda.
2 For the images have said what is not true, and the readers of signs have seen deceit; they have given accounts of false dreams, they give comfort to no purpose: so they go out of the way like sheep, they are troubled because they have no keeper.
Mĩhianano ya kũhooywo yaragia maheeni, ago moonaga cioneki itarĩ cia ma, maaragia ũhoro wa irooto itarĩ cia ma; kũhoorerania kwao no gwa tũhũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ maturuuraga ta ngʼondu, makahinyĩrĩrĩka nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga mũrĩithi.
3 My wrath is burning against the keepers of the flock, and I will send punishment on the he-goats: for the Lord of armies takes care of his flock, the people of Judah, and will make them like the horse of his pride in the fight.
“Marakara makwa nĩmakanĩte nĩ ũndũ wa arĩithi, na niĩ nĩngaherithia atongoria acio; nĩgũkorwo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩakamenyerera rũũru rwake, nĩruo andũ a nyũmba ya Juda, na atũme matuĩke ta mbarathi ĩgwĩtĩĩa ĩrĩ mbaara-inĩ.
4 From him will come the keystone, from him the nail, from him the bow of war, from him will come every ruler;
Thĩinĩ wa Juda nĩgũkoima ũrĩa ũgaatuĩka ihiga rĩa koine, na kuuma kũrĩ we kuume higĩ cia kwamba hema, ningĩ kuume ũta wa mbaara, o na kuume mũndũ o wothe wa gwathana.
5 Together they will be like men of war, crushing down their haters into the earth of the streets in the fight; they will make war because the Lord is with them: and the horsemen will be shamed.
Marĩ hamwe magaatuĩka ta njamba cia ita irĩ hinya, marangĩrĩrie thũ ciao ndoro-inĩ ya njĩra hĩndĩ ya mbaara. Tondũ Jehova agaakorwo hamwe nao, makaarũa na mangʼaũranie ahaici a mbarathi.
6 And I will make the children of Judah strong, and I will be the saviour of the children of Joseph, and I will make them come back again, for I have had mercy on them: they will be as if I had not given them up: for I am the Lord their God and I will give them an answer.
“Nĩngekĩra nyũmba ya Juda hinya, na honokie nyũmba ya Jusufu. Nĩngamacookia kwao, tondũ nĩndĩmaiguĩrĩire tha. Nao magaikara ta itarĩ ndaamarega, nĩgũkorwo niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wao, na nĩngamacookeria mahooya mao.
7 And Ephraim will be like a man of war, and their hearts will be glad as with wine; and their children will see it with joy; their hearts will be glad in the Lord.
Andũ a Efiraimu magaatuĩka ta njamba cia ita, nacio ngoro ciao icanjamũke ta andũ manyuĩte ndibei. Ciana ciao nĩikoona ũndũ ũcio ikene; nacio ngoro ciao nĩigakenera Jehova.
8 With the sound of the pipe I will get them together; for I have given the price to make them free: and they will be increased as they were increased.
Nĩngameta ndĩmacookanĩrĩrie. Ti-itherũ nĩngamakũũra; nao nĩmakaingĩha o ta ũrĩa maarĩ mbere.
9 Though I had them planted among the peoples, they will keep me in mind in far countries: and they will take care of their children and will come back.
O na ingĩkamaharaganĩria ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, marĩ o kũu mabũrũri ma kũraya no makaandirikana. O, hamwe na ciana ciao nĩmakahonoka na macooke kwao.
10 And I will make them come back out of the land of Egypt, and will get them together out of Assyria; and I will take them into the land of Gilead, and it will not be wide enough for them.
Nĩngamacookia kuuma Misiri, na ndĩmacookanĩrĩrie kuuma Ashuri. Nĩngamarehe bũrũri wa Gileadi na wa Lebanoni, o nginya mage ũikaro ũngĩmaigana.
11 And they will go through the sea of Egypt, and all the deep waters of the Nile will become dry: and the pride of Assyria will be made low, and the power of Egypt will be taken away.
Magaatuĩkanĩria iria rĩa thĩĩna; makũmbĩ ma iria nĩmakahoorerio, nakuo kũrĩa Rũũĩ rwa Nili rũrikĩte nĩgũkahũa. Mwĩtĩĩo wa Ashuri nĩũkaharũrũkio, nayo thimbũ ya ũthamaki wa Misiri nĩĩkeherio.
12 And their strength will be in the Lord; and their pride will be in his name, says the Lord.
Nĩngamekĩra hinya ndĩmomĩrĩrie thĩinĩ wa Jehova, na thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake nĩmagetwara,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
