< Zechariah 9 >
1 The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and of Damascus the rest thereof: for the eye of man, and of all the tribes of Israel is the Lord’s.
Ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩyũkĩrĩire bũrũri wa Hadaraka, na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Dameski: nĩgũkorwo maitho ma andũ, na ma mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli macũthĩrĩirie Jehova,
2 Emath also in the borders thereof, and Tyre, and Sidon: for they have taken to themselves to be exceeding wise.
na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Hamathu o nakuo, itũũra rĩrĩa rĩhakanĩte nakuo, o na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Turo na Sidoni, o na gũtuĩka andũ akuo maarĩ oogĩ mũno.
3 And Tyre hath built herself a strong hold, and heaped together silver as earth, and gold as the mire of the streets.
Andũ a Turo nĩmeyakĩire kĩĩgitĩro kĩrũmu, na makeigĩra hĩba cia betha nyingĩ ta rũkũngũ, na thahabu nyingĩ ta mahuti ma njĩra-inĩ.
4 Behold the Lord shall possess her, and shall strike her strength in the sea, and she shall be devoured with fire.
No rĩrĩ, Mwathani nĩakarĩtunya ũtonga warĩo, na aanange ũhoti warĩo wa iria-inĩ, narĩo itũũra rĩu nĩrĩgacinwo na mwaki.
5 Ascalon shall see, and shall fear, and Gaza, and shall be very sorrowful: and Accaron, because her hope is confounded: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ascalon shall not be inhabited.
Ashikeloni nĩrĩkeyonera ũhoro ũcio na rĩĩtigĩre, Gaza nĩrĩkehũũrithania nĩ ruo rũnene, o na Ekironi o narĩo, nĩgũkorwo mwĩhoko warĩo nĩũkahooha. Gaza nĩrĩkoorwo nĩ mũthamaki warĩo, narĩo Ashikeloni nĩrĩgathaamwo.
6 And the divider shall sit in Azotus, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.
Andũ a bũrũri ũngĩ nĩmagatũũra Ashidodi, na niĩ nĩnganiina mwĩtĩĩo wa Afilisti.
7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: and even he shall be left to our God, and he shall be as a governor in Juda, and Accaron as a Jebusite.
Nĩngaruta thakame tũnua-inĩ twao, na irio iria ngaananie ndĩcirute gatagatĩ ka magego mao. Andũ arĩa magaatigara magaatuĩka a Ngai witũ, na matuĩke atongoria a Juda, nao andũ a Ekironi makahaana ta andũ a Jebusi.
8 And I will encompass my house with them that serve me in war, going and returning, and the oppressor shall no more pass through them: for now I have seen with my eyes.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩngagitĩra nyũmba yakwa kuuma kũrĩ mbũtũ iria imarehagĩra mbaara. Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ mũhinyanĩrĩria agaacooka gũtooria andũ akwa, nĩgũkorwo rĩu nĩndĩĩoneire ũrĩa maanahinyĩrĩrio.
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Sion, shout for joy, O daughter of Jerusalem: BEHOLD THY KING will come to thee, the just and saviour: he is poor, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Kena mũno, wee Mwarĩ wa Zayuni! Anĩrĩra, wee Mwarĩ wa Jerusalemu! Atĩrĩrĩ, mũthamaki waku nĩarooka kũrĩ we, nĩ mũthingu na arĩ na ũhonokio, nĩ mũhooreri na akuuĩtwo nĩ ndigiri, agaikarĩra njaũ ya ndigiri.
10 And I will destroy the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the bow for war shall be broken: and he shall speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power shall be from sea to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth.
Nĩngeheria ngaari cia ita kuuma Efiraimu, na njeherie mbarathi cia mbaara kuuma Jerusalemu, naguo ũta wa mbaara-rĩ, nĩũkoinangwo. Nake aanĩrĩre thayũ ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ. Wathani wake-rĩ, ũgaatambũrũka kuuma iria rĩmwe nginya rĩrĩa rĩngĩ, na kuuma Rũũĩ rwa Farati o nginya ituri cia thĩ.
11 Thou also by the blood of thy testament hast sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit, wherein is no water.
No ha ũhoro waku-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa thakame ya kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ndarĩkanĩire nawe, nĩngoohorithia andũ aku arĩa mohetwo, moime irima rĩu rĩtarĩ maaĩ.
12 Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope, I will render thee double at, I declare today.
Cookai kĩĩhitho-inĩ kĩanyu kĩrĩa kĩrũmu, inyuĩ muohetwo mũrĩ na mwĩhoko; o na rĩu nguuga atĩrĩ, nĩngamũcookeria indo cianyu maita meerĩ.
13 Because I have bent Juda for me as a bow, I have filled Ephraim: and I will raise up thy sons, O Sion, above thy sons, O Greece, and I will make thee as the sword of the mighty.
Ngaagonya Juda o taarĩ ũta wakwa, nake Efiraimu atuĩke ta mĩguĩ ya ũta ũcio, ndĩmaiyũrie kuo. Nĩngarahũra ariũ aku, wee Zayuni, mokĩrĩre ariũ aku wee Mũyunani, na ngũtue ta rũhiũ rwa njora rwa njamba ĩrĩ hinya.
14 And the Lord God shall be seen over them, and his dart shall go forth as lightning: and the Lord God will sound the trumpet, and go in the whirlwind of the south.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova nĩakoonwo arĩ igũrũ rĩao; mũguĩ wake ũkaarathũka ta rũheni. Mwathani Jehova nĩakahuha karumbeta; agaathiĩ arĩ ihuhũkanio-inĩ cia mwena wa gũthini,
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them: and they shall devour, and subdue with the stones of the sling: and drinking they shall be inebriated as it were with wine, and they shall be filled as bowls, and as the horns of the altar.
nake Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩakamagitĩra. Nao makaamaniina biũ, na matooranie na kũmahũũra na mahiga ma kĩgũtha. Makaanyua na manegene ta marĩĩtwo nĩ ndibei; makaiyũrĩrĩrio ta mbakũri ĩrĩa ĩhũthagĩrwo kũminjaminjĩria koine cia kĩgongona.
16 And the Lord their God will save them in that day, as the dock of his people: for holy stones shall be lifted up over his land.
Jehova Ngai wao nĩakamahonokia mũthenya ũcio, marĩ andũ a rũũru rwake. Nĩmagakengaga bũrũri-inĩ wake, ta mahiga ma goro marĩ thũmbĩ-inĩ ya mũthamaki.
17 For what is the good thing of him, and what is his beautiful thing, but the corn of the elect, and wine springing forth virgins?
Kaĩ nĩmagakorwo marĩ a kwendeka, na mathakarĩte-ĩ! Irio cia mĩgũnda nĩigatũma aanake magaacĩre, nayo ndibei ya mũhihano ĩtũme airĩtu o nao magaacĩre.
