< Zechariah 2 >

1 Then I looked again and I saw a man with a measuring line in his hand.
In sie pac aruruma nga liye mwet se sruok ah in srikasrak soko inpaol.
2 “Where are you going?” I asked him. “I'm going to Jerusalem to measure its width and length,” he replied.
Nga siyuk, “Kom ac som nu ya?” Ac el fahk, “Nga ac som in srikeya acn Jerusalem, ngan konauk lusa ac sralapa.”
3 The angel I was talking to came forward and another angel came to meet him
Na nga liye lipufan se ma tuh kaskas nu sik meet ah fahsryak, ac sie pac lipufan tuku in osun nu sel.
4 and told him, “Run, and tell the young man that Jerusalem will have so many people and farm animals that it will be too big to have walls.”
Lipufan se meet ah fahk nu sin ma se ngia, “Kasrusr ac fahk nu sin mwet fusr se ma sruok ah in srikasrak soko ingo, lah ac mau arulana pukanten mwet ac oayapa ma orakrak in acn Jerusalem, pwanang ac arulana yokla acn ma enenu in kuhlusyukyak.
5 The Lord declares, I myself will be a wall of fire all around the city, and I will be the glory inside it.
LEUM GOD El wulema mu El sifacna ac fah sie kalkal e in rauneak siti sac Elan karinganang, ac tuh El fah muta we in wolana lal nukewa.”
6 Run! Run! Run away from the northern land, says the Lord, because I have scattered you to the four winds of heaven.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Tuyak! Tuyak ac kaingla liki acn eir, tuh nga tuh akfahsryekowoselik nu yen nukewa faclu, oana eng akosr lun kusrao.
7 Run away, people of Zion! All of you who live in Babylon must escape.
Tuyak, kowos su mwet sruoh in acn Babylonia, ac folokla nu Jerusalem.
8 For this is what the Lord Almighty said: Afterwards the glorious Lord sent me against the nations that plundered you—for those who touch you touch the apple of his eye.
Kutena mwet su sringil kowos, el sringil sie ma su arulana saok nu sik.” Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana El supweyume in us kas inge nu sin mutunfacl nukewa su kunauselik mwet lal ac usalik ma lalos:
9 I will raise my hand against them and their former slaves will plunder them. Then you will know the Lord Almighty has sent me.
“LEUM GOD sifacna El ac fah mweun lain kowos, ac ma lowos ac fah utukelik liki kowos sin mwet su tuh mwet kulansap lowos meet.” Ke pacl se ma inge ac sikyak uh, mwet nukewa ac fah etu lah LEUM GOD Kulana pa supweyume.
10 Sing in celebration, people of Zion, for I am coming to live with you, declares the Lord.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Jerusalem, kowos on ke engan! Nga ac tuku in muta inmasrlowos!”
11 Many nations will become believers in Lord on that day, and they shall be my people. I will live among you, and you will know the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.
In pacl sac mutunfacl puspis ac fah forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ekla mwet lal. El ac fah muta inmasrlowos, ac kowos fah etu lah El pa supweyume nu yuruwos.
12 The people of Judah will be the Lord's special people in the holy land, and he will once again choose Jerusalem as his special city.
Na Judah el ac fah sifilpa sie ma na saok sin LEUM GOD in acn mutal sel, ac Jerusalem ac fah siti se su El lungse yohk liki siti nukewa.
13 Be silent before the Lord, everyone, for he has risen from the holy place where he lives.
Kowos nukewa mislawin ye mutun LEUM GOD, tuh El oatume liki acn mutal sel.
