Zechariah 1
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Jehovah unto Zechariah the prophet, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
In malem se akoalkosr ke yac se akluo in pacl Darius el Tokosra Fulat lun Persia, LEUM GOD El sang kas inge nu sel mwet palu Zechariah, su wen natul Berechiah, su ma natul Iddo.
2 Jehovah hath been very wroth with your fathers.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahkang nu sel Zechariah in fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Nga, LEUM GOD, tuh arulana kasrkusrak sin mwet matu lowos,
3 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Return unto me, saith Jehovah of hosts, and I will return unto you, saith Jehovah of hosts.
tusruktu inge nga fahk nu suwos, ‘Kowos foloko nu yuruk, ac nga fah folokot nu yuruwos.
4 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets cried, saying, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings; but they did not hearken nor attend unto me, saith Jehovah.
Nimet kowos oana mwet matu lowos. In pacl loes somla, mwet palu elos tuh fahkak kas luk nu selos, ac fahk mu elos in tia sifil moulkin moul koluk, ac tia sifil oru ma koluk.’ A elos tiana porongeyu ku akosyu.
5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
Mwet matu lowos ac mwet palu ingo elos wanginla.
6 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? And they turned and said, Like as Jehovah of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us.
Nga tuh sang sap luk nu sin mwet kulansap luk, mwet palu, kas in akesmakyalos, tusruktu elos tiana lohang nu kac, oru elos tuh keokkin seakos lalos. Na elos auliyak ac fahkak lah elos akilen lah nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, tuh kalyaelos fal nu ke ouiyalos, oana ke nga sulela in oru.”
7 Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Jehovah unto Zechariah the prophet, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
In yac se akluo lal Tokosra Fulat Darius, ke len aklongoul akosr in malem se aksingoul sie (malem in Shebat), LEUM GOD El ikasla nu sik sie mwe fahkak in sie aruruma ke fong.
8 I saw by night, and behold, a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle-trees that were in the low valley; and behind him were red, bay, and white horses.
Nga tuh liye mwet se kasrusr fin soko horse srusra. El tui inmasrlon sak myrtle infahlfal se, ac oasr pac kutu horse tokol — kutu srusra, kutu tuhntun, ac kutu fasrfasr.
9 And I said, My lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these are.
Na nga siyuk sel, “Leum se, mea kalmen horse ingan?” Na lipufan se ma kaskas nu sik ah topuk ac fahk, “Nga fah akkalemye nu sum lah mea kalmac.
10 And the man that stood among the myrtle-trees answered and said, These are they whom Jehovah hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.
LEUM GOD El sap elos in som ac tuni lah mea orek faclu.”
11 And they answered the angel of Jehovah that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and behold, all the earth sitteth still and is at rest.
Na elos tuh fahk nu sin lipufan sac, “Kut foroht forma fin faclu nufon ac konauk tuh na faclu arulana wanginla ku la, ac misla na.”
12 And the angel of Jehovah answered and said, Jehovah of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these seventy years?
Na lipufan sac fahk, “LEUM GOD Kulana, kom tuh kasrkusrak sin Jerusalem ac sin siti nukewa lun Judah ke yac itngoulla. Ac putaka lula na kom fah akkalemye pakomuta lom nu selos?”
13 And Jehovah answered the angel that talked with me good words, comforting words.
LEUM GOD El topuk lipufan sac ke kas in akwoye,
14 And the angel that talked with me said unto me, Cry, saying, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy,
ac lipufan sac fahk nu sik nga in sulkakin kas ma LEUM GOD El fahk inge: “Nga arulana nunku yohk ke Jerusalem, siti mutal luk,
15 and I am wroth exceedingly with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little wroth, and they helped forward the affliction.
ac nga kasrkusrak sin mutunfacl su okak ac mutana in misla, mweyen ke pacl se ma nga srusruok mulat luk sin mwet luk, mutunfacl ingan tuh akyokye keok nu sin mwet luk upa liki meet ah.
16 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith Jehovah of hosts, and the line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
Na pa nga foloko nu Jerusalem in tuh akkalemye pakomuta luk nu ke siti sac. Tempul luk ac fah folokyak, ac siti uh ac fah sifil musaiyukla.”
17 Cry further, saying, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: My cities shall yet overflow with prosperity, and Jehovah shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
Lipufan sac fahk pac nu sik in sulkakin kas inge: “LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk mu siti nukewa lal ac fah sifilpa akkasrupyeyuk, ac El fah sifilpa eisla Jerusalem tuh in ma lal sifacna.”
18 And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
In sie pac aruruma nga liye koen cow akosr.
19 And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these? And he said to me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
Na nga siyuk sin lipufan se ma kaskas nu sik ah, “Mea kalmen koac inge?” El topuk ac fahk, “Elos akkalemye ku lulap lun faclu ma akfahsryelik mwet Judah, mwet Israel, ac mwet Jerusalem.”
20 And Jehovah shewed me four craftsmen.
Na LEUM GOD El ikasla nu sik ac nga liye mwet orekma akosr utuk hammer.
21 And I said, What come these to do? And he spoke, saying, Those are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these are come to affright them, to cast out the horns of the nations, which lifted up the horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.
Ac nga siyuk, “Mea mwet inge tuku in oru uh?” El topuk ac fahk, “Elos tuku in aksangengye ac kunausla mutunfacl nukewa su tuh arulana itungya acn Judah ac akfahsryelik mwet we.”
