Zechariah 7
1 And it happened, in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, on the fourth day of the ninth month, which is Kislev.
Oo Boqor Daariyus sannaddiisii afraad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah maalintii afraad oo bisha sagaalaad, taasoo ah bisha Kislee'u.
2 And Sharezer and Regemmelech, and the men who were with them, sent to the house of God, to entreat the face of the Lord,
Haddaba reer Beytel waxay soo direen Shareser iyo Regem Meleg iyo raggoodiiba inay Rabbiga baryaan,
3 to speak to the priests of the house of the Lord of hosts and to the prophets, saying: “Must there be weeping with me in the fifth month, and must I sanctify myself, as I have now done for many years?”
iyo inay la hadlaan wadaaddadii guriga Rabbiga ciidammada, iyo nebiyadii, oo ay ku yidhaahdaan, Miyaan bisha shanaad ooyaa, oo miyaan gooni iska dhigaa sidii aan yeeli jiray sannadahan badan oo dhan?
4 And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:
Oo haddana waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo wuxuu igu yidhi,
5 Speak to all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying: Although you may have fasted and mourned in the fifth and the seventh month for these seventy years, did you indeed keep a fast unto me?
Waxaad la hadashaa dadka dalka deggan oo dhan iyo wadaaddadaba, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Markaad soomi jirteen oo aad barooran jirteen bisha shanaad iyo bisha toddobaad, oo ah toddobaatankan sannadood, miyaad innaba aniga ii soomi jirteen?
6 And when you did eat and drink, did you not eat for yourselves, and drink only for yourselves?
Oo markaad wax cuntaan, iyo markaad wax cabtaan, miyaydaan nafsaddiinna u cunin oo miyaydaan nafsaddiinna u cabbin?
7 Are not these the words that the Lord has spoken by the hand of the former prophets, when Jerusalem was still inhabited, so that it would prosper, itself and the cities around it, and those inhabitants towards the South and in the plains?
Sow ma aha erayadii Rabbigu kaga dhex qayliyey nebiyadii hore, markii Yeruusaalem la degganaa oo ay barwaaqada ku dhex jirtay, oo la wada degganaa magaalooyinka hareeraheeda ku wareegsan iyo xagga koonfureed iyo bannaankaba?
8 And the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying:
Markaasaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah, isagoo leh,
9 Thus says the Lord of hosts, saying: Judge with true judgment, and act with mercy and compassion, each and every one with his brother.
Rabbiga ciidammadu sidan buu ku hadlay oo yidhi, Garsoorid daacad ah naqa, oo nin waluba walaalkiis ha u sameeyo naxariis iyo raxmad.
10 And do not find fault with the widow, and the orphan, and the newcomer, and the poor. And let not a man consider evil in his heart towards his brother.
Hana dulmina carmalka, ama agoonta, ama qariibka, ama masaakiinta, oo midkiinna yuusan qalbiga xumaan ugu fikirin walaalkiis.
11 But they were not willing to pay attention, and they turned aside their shoulder to depart, and they pressed upon their ears, so that they would not hear.
Laakiinse way diideen inay dhegaystaan, oo intay caasiyeen ayay dhegaha furaysteen, si ayan u maqlin.
12 And they set their heart like the hardest stone, so that they would not hear the law and the words that the Lord of hosts has sent with his Spirit by the hand of the former prophets. And so a great indignation came from Lord of hosts.
Oo waxay qalbigoodii ka dhigeen sidii dhagax adag oo kale si ayan u maqlin sharcigii iyo erayadii Rabbiga ciidammadu uu ku soo dhiibay ruuxiisa markuu nebiyadiisii hore soo diray, oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaa Rabbiga ciidammada ka timid cadho weyn.
13 And it happened, just as he had spoken, and they did not pay attention. So then, they shall cry out, and I will not heed, says the Lord of hosts.
Oo sidii uu u dhawaaqay oo iyana ay maqli waayeen, sidaas oo kalay u qayliyeen, oo anna ma aan maqlin, ayaa Rabbiga ciidammadu yidhi,
14 And I dispersed them throughout all the kingdoms that they did not know. And the land was left desolate behind them, so that no one was passing through or returning. And they made the desirable land into a deserted place.
laakiinse waxaan iyaga ku kala firdhiyey dabayl duufaan ah oo waxaan dhex geeyey quruumaha ayan aqoon oo dhan. Sidaasuu dalkii cidla u noqday iyaga dabadood, oo ninna ma dhex marin, ciduna kuma soo noqon, waayo, dalkii wacnaa cidla baa laga dhigay.
