Zechariah 6
1 And I lifted up mine eyes again, and saw, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
Ngasengibuya ngaphakamisa amehlo ami, ngabona, khangela-ke, kwaphuma inqola ezine phakathi kwezintaba ezimbili; lezintaba zazizintaba zethusi.
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
Enqoleni yokuqala kwakulamabhiza abomvu, lenqoleni yesibili amabhiza amnyama,
3 and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled, strong horses.
lenqoleni yesithathu amabhiza amhlophe, lenqoleni yesine amabhiza alamabala alamandla.
4 And I spoke and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
Ngasengiphendula ngathi kuyo ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami: Ayini lawo, nkosi yami?
5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
Ingilosi yasiphendula yathi kimi: Lawo ayimimoya emine yamazulu, ephuma ekumeni phambi kweNkosi yomhlaba wonke.
6 That in which are the black horses goeth forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth towards the south country;
Amabhiza amnyama akhonapho aphuma esiya elizweni lenyakatho; lamhlophe aphuma ewalandela; lalamabala aphuma esiya elizweni leningizimu.
7 and the strong go forth, and seek to go that they may walk to and fro through the earth. And he said, Go, walk to and fro through the earth. And they walked to and fro through the earth.
Alamandla asephuma, adinga ukuhamba ukuze aye le lale emhlabeni. Yasisithi: Hambani liye le lale emhlabeni. Asesiya le lale emhlabeni.
8 And he cried unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, See, these that go forth towards the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
Yasingimemeza, yakhuluma kimi, isithi: Khangela, la aphuma aya elizweni lenyakatho awuphumuzile umoya wami elizweni lenyakatho.
9 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
10 Take [gifts] of them of the captivity, of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, and come thou the same day, and enter into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, whither they are come from Babylon;
Thatha kwabathunjiweyo, kuHelidayi, lakuTobiya, lakuJedaya, abavele eBhabhiloni, ubuye wena ngalolosuku, uye endlini kaJosiya indodana kaZefaniya,
11 yea, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set [them] upon the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
ubusuthatha isiliva legolide, wenze imiqhele, uyibeke phezu kwekhanda likaJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu;
12 and speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, saying, Behold a man whose name is [the] Branch; and he shall grow up from his own place, and he shall build the temple of Jehovah:
ubusukhuluma kuye, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, isithi: Khangela, umuntu obizo lakhe nguHlumela, uzahluma-ke ephuma endaweni yakhe, akhe ithempeli leNkosi.
13 even he shall build the temple of Jehovah; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
Yena-ke uzakwakha ithempeli leNkosi; yena athwale ubukhosi, ahlale abuse phezu kwesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi. Futhi uzakuba ngumpristi phezu kwesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi; leseluleko sokuthula sizakuba phakathi kwabo bobabili.
14 And the crowns shall be for Helem, and for Tobijah, and for Jedaiah, and for Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of Jehovah.
Lemiqhele izakuba kuHelemi, lakuThobhiya, lakuJedaya, lakuHeni indodana kaZefaniya, kube yisikhumbuzo ethempelini leNkosi.
15 And they that are far off shall come and build at the temple of Jehovah: and ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me unto you. And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God.
Labakhatshana bazafika bakhe ethempelini leNkosi, beselisazi ukuthi iNkosi yamabandla ingithumile kini. Lokhu kuzakwenzeka, uba lilalela lokulalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
