< Zechariah 9 >

1 The burden of the word of Jehovah, in the land of Hadrach, and [on] Damascus shall it rest; (for Jehovah hath an eye upon men, and upon all the tribes of Israel; )
Raajiin dubbii Waaqayyoo biyya Hadraakitti ni dhufa; Damaasqoo irras ni buʼa; iji namoota hundaa fi gosoota Israaʼel hundaa gara Waaqayyo ni ilaalaatii;
2 and also [on] Hamath [which] bordereth thereon; on Tyre and Zidon, though she be very wise.
akkasumas gara Hamaati ishee daangaa irraa, isaan ogeeyyii taʼan iyyuu gara Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaas ni ilaala.
3 And Tyre hath built herself a stronghold, and hath heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
Xiiroos daʼannoo jabaa ijaarratteerti; meetii akka awwaaraatti, warqees akkuma kosii daandii irraatti tuullateerti.
4 Behold, the Lord will take possession of her, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
Gooftaan garuu qabeenya ishee irraa fuudhee humna ishee galaana irratti barbadeessa; isheenis ibiddaan dhumti.
5 Ashkelon shall see [it], and fear; Gazah also, and she shall be greatly pained; Ekron also, for her expectation shall be put to shame: and the king shall perish from Gazah, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
Ashqaloon waan kana argitee ni sodaatti; Gaazaan immoo dhukkubsattee aaddi; Eqroonis akkasuma taati; abdiin ishee coollageeraatii. Gaazaan mootii ishee ni dhabdi; Eqroonis ontee hafti.
6 And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines;
Namoonni ormaa Ashdoodin ni qabatu; anis of tuulummaa Filisxeemotaa nan balleessa.
7 and I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; but he that remaineth, he also shall belong to our God, and shall be as a leader in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
Ani dhiiga afaan isaanii keessa jiru, nyaata dhowwames ilkaan isaanii gidduudhaa nan baasa. Warri hafanis kan Waaqa keenyaa taʼanii Yihuudaa keessattis bulchitoota taʼu; Eqroon immoo akka warra Yebuusotaa ni taati.
8 And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of those that pass by and that return; and the exactor shall not pass through them any more: for now have I seen [it] with mine eyes.
Ani garuu loltuu cabsitee seentu mana koo irraa nan dhowwa. Lammata hacuuccuun saba koo irra hin burraaqxu; ani amma dammaqee nan eegaatii.
9 Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion; shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, thy King cometh to thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Yaa Intala Xiyoon ati guddisii gammadi! Yaa Intala Yerusaalem iyyi! Kunoo mootiin kee qajeelaan, fayyina qabatee, gad of qabee harree yaabbatee, ilmoo harree jechuunis harree xinnoo yaabbatee gara kee dhufaa jira.
10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem; and the battle-bow shall be cut off. And he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
Ani gaariiwwan lolaa Efreem keessaa, fardeen lolaas Yerusaalem keessaa nan balleessa; iddaan waraanaas ni caccaba. Inni sabootatti nagaa ni labsa; bulchiinsi isaa galaana tokkoo irraa hamma galaana biraatti, Laga Efraaxiisiitii hamma daarii lafaatti balʼata.
11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant, I will send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
Siʼi immoo, sababii dhiiga kakuu ani si wajjin qabuutiif hidhamtoota kee ani boolla bishaan hin qabne keessaa baasee gad nan dhiisa.
12 Turn again to the stronghold, prisoners of hope! even to-day do I declare I will render double unto thee.
Yaa hidhamtoota abdii qabdan, daʼannoo keessanitti deebiʼaa; ani ammas harka lama godhee isiniif nan deebisa.
13 For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will raise up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and make thee like the sword of a mighty man.
Ani akkan iddaa koo dabsadhutti Yihuudaa dabsee Efreem keessa nan guuta. Yaa Xiyoon, ani ilmaan kee ilmaan Giriikitti nan kaasa; siʼi immoo akka goraadee goota tokkoo nan godhadha.
14 And Jehovah shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, and will march with whirlwinds of the south.
Waaqayyo isaan irratti ni mulʼata; xiyyi isaa akka bakakkaa ni balaqqisa. Waaqayyo Gooftaan malakata ni afuufa; inni bubbee kibbaatiin deema;
15 Jehovah of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, [and] make a noise as from wine; and they shall be filled like a bowl, like the corners of the altar.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isaan eega. Isaan dhagaa furrisaatiin barbadeessanii moʼatu. Isaan akkuma daadhii wayinii dhuganii akkuma waciitii ittiin golee iddoo aarsaatti facaasaniitti ni guutamu.
16 And Jehovah their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people; for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted up upon his land.
Akkuma tikseen bushaayee isaa oolchu sana, Waaqayyo Waaqni isaanii gaafas saba isaa ni oolcha. Isaan akkuma faaya gonfoo irraatti biyya isaa keessatti ni calaqqisu.
17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maidens.
Isaan akkam nama hawwatu! Akkamis miidhagu! Midhaan dargaggoota, daadhiin wayinii haaraan immoo shamarran jajjabeessa.
