< 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.
Ndakasimudzazve meso angu ndikaona, hapo pamberi pangu paiva nengoro ina dzaibuda kubva pakati pamakomo maviri, makomo endarira!
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
Ngoro yokutanga yakanga ine mabhiza matsvuku, yechipiri ine matema,
3 and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled, strong horses.
yechitatu ine machena uye yechina ine mapfumbu, ose aiva nesimba.
4 And I spoke and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
Ndakabvunza mutumwa akanga achitaura neni ndikati, “Zviiko izvi, ishe wangu?”
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.
Mutumwa akandipindura akati, “Iyi ndiyo mweya mina yokudenga, inobuda payakanga imire pamberi paIshe wenyika yose.
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;
Ine mabhiza matema iri kuenda kunyika yokumusoro, ine mabhiza machena iri kuenda kumadokero, uye ine mabhiza mapfumbu iri kuenda kunyika yezasi.”
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.
Mabhiza ane simba paakabuda akanga achitsvaka kuti aende nomunyika yose. Uye iye akati, “Endai munyika yose!” Saka akaenda nomunyika yose.
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.
Ipapo akadanidzira kwandiri achiti, “Tarira, ayo anoenda kunyika yokumusoro, apa Mweya wangu zororo munyika yokumusoro.”
9 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
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;
“Tora sirivha negoridhe kubva kuvatapwa vanoti Heridhai, naTobhiya uye naJedhaya, vasvika vachibva kuBhabhironi. Enda, zuva rimwe chetero, kuimba yaJosia mwanakomana waZefania.
11 yea, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set [them] upon the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
Tora sirivha negoridhe ugadzire korona, uye ugoidzika pamusoro womuprista mukuru, Joshua mwanakomana waJehozadhaki.
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:
Muudze kuti zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: ‘Houno murume anonzi Davi, achakura panzvimbo yake uye achavaka temberi yaJehovha.
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.
Ndiye achavaka temberi yaJehovha, uye achapfekedzwa ukuru agogara achitonga pachigaro chake. Uye achava muprista pachigaro chake. Uye pachava norugare pakati pezviviri izvi.’
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.
Korona ichapiwa kuna Heridhai, naTobhiya, naJedhaya uye naHeni mwanakomana waZefania sechiyeuchidzo mutemberi yaJehovha.
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.
Avo vari kure vachauya kuzobatsira kuvaka temberi yaJehovha, uye iwe uchaziva kuti Jehovha Wamasimba Ose andituma kwauri. Izvi zvichaitika kana ukateerera zvakanaka Jehovha Mwari wako.”
