< Zacharias 2 >

1 And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
Oo anna indhahaygii baan kor u qaaday, oo wax baan fiiriyey, oo waxaan arkay nin gacanta ku haysta xadhig qiyaaseed.
2 And I said to him, Whither goest thou? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth of it, and what is the length of it.
Kolkaasaan idhi, War xaggee baad u socotaa? Oo isna wuxuu igu yidhi, Waxaan u socdaa inaan Yeruusaalem soo qiyaaso oo aan soo ogaado intuu ballaadhkeedu yahay, iyo intuu dhererkeedu yahayba.
3 And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stood [by], and another angel went forth to meet him,
Oo bal eeg, malaggii ila hadlay ayaa baxay, oo malag kale ayaa u baxay inuu isaga ka hor tago.
4 and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be fully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her.
Oo wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Orod, oo la hadal ninkaas dhallinyarada ah, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Yeruusaalem waxaa loo degi doonaa sidii tuulooyin aan deyr lahayn, sababtuna waa dadka tirobadnaantiisa iyo xoolaha iyada dhex jooga daraaddood.
5 And I will be to her, saith the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a glory in the midst of her.
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan iyada u noqon doonaa deyr dab ah oo iyada ku wareegsan, oo waxaan iyada u noqon doonaa ammaanta dhexdeeda joogta.
6 Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord: for I will gather you from the four winds of heaven, saith the Lord,
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Warroy dalka woqooyi ka carara, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan idiin kala firdhiyey sida afarta dabaylood oo samada.
7 [even] to Sion: deliver yourselves, ye that dwell [with] the daughter of Babylon.
Siyoonay, tan dadka Baabuloon la joogtoy, baxso.
8 For thus saith the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiled you: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye.
Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Ammaan dabadeed wuxuu ii soo diray quruumihii adiga ku dhacay, waayo, kii ku taabto wuxuu taabtaa ishiisa inankeeda.
9 For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them: and ye shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
Waayo, bal eega, Gacantayda ayaan iyaga ku kor ruxruxi doonaa, oo iyana waxay booli u noqon doonaan kuwii iyaga u adeegi jiray, oo idinna waxaad ogaan doontaan in Rabbiga ciidammadu i soo diray.
10 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
Magaalada Siyoonay, gabay oo reyree, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, anigu waan imanayaa oo dhexdaadaan degganaan doonaa.
11 And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be for a people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of thee: and thou shalt know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to thee.
Oo wakhtigaas quruumo badan ayaa Rabbiga isugu darmi doona, oo dadkaygay noqon doonaan, oo dhexdaadaan degganaan doonaa, oo adna waxaad ogaan doontaa in Rabbiga ciidammadii ii soo kaa diray.
12 And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holy [land], and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
Oo Rabbiguna dadka dalka Yahuudah wuu dhaxli doonaa iyagoo qaybtiisa ku ah dalka quduuska ah, oo weliba Yeruusaalem buu dooran doonaa.
13 Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
Binu-aadmiga oo dhammow, Rabbiga hortiisa ku aamusa, waayo, isagu waa ka soo kacay hoygiisii quduuska ahaa.
