Zechariah 1
1 In the eight moneth of the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto Zechariah the sonne of Berechiah, the sonne of Iddo, the Prophet, saying,
Darius kah a kum bae, a hla rhet vaengah, Iddo koca Berekiah capa tonghma Zekhariah taengah BOEIPA ol cet tih,
2 The Lord hath bene sore displeased with your fathers.
“BOEIPA he a thintoek tih na pa rhoek taengah thinhulnah om.
3 Therefore say thou vnto them, Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Turne ye vnto me, saith the Lord of hostes, and I will turne vnto you, saith the Lord of hostes.
Te dongah amih te thui pah. Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Caempuei BOEIPA loh, ‘Kai taengla ha mael uh lamtah nangmih taengla ka mael ni,’ a ti.
4 Be ye not as your fathers, vnto whome the former prophets haue cried, saying, Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Turne you nowe from your euill wayes, and from your wicked workes: but they would not heare, nor hearken vnto me, saith the Lord.
Na pa rhoek bangla om uh boeh. Amih te tonghma lamhma rhoek loh a khue uh tih, ‘Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui na longpuei thae lamloh mael uh laeh. Na khoboe neh na khoboe thae rhoe mah,’ a ti. Tedae hnatun uh pawt tih kai taengah a hnatung uh moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
5 your fathers, where are they? and doe the Prophets liue for euer?
Na pa rhoek te melae? Tonghma rhoek khaw kumhal ah hing uh nim?
6 But did not my wordes and my statutes, which I commanded by my seruants ye Prophets, take holde of your fathers? and they returned, and sayd, As the Lord of hostes hath determined to doe vnto vs, according to our owne wayes, and according to our workes, so hath hee dealt with vs.
Ka ol neh ka oltlueh he ka sal tonghma rhoek ka uen dae ta. Na pa rhoek loh kae uh pawt tih nim a mael uh? Te vaengah, ‘Mamih kah longpuei bangla mamih taengah saii ham neh mamih kah khoboe bangla caempuei BOEIPA loh a mangtaeng tih mamih taengah a saii tangloeng coeng,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
7 Vpon the foure and twentieth day of the eleuenth moneth, which is the moneth Shebat, in the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto Zechariah the sonne of Berechiah, the sonne of Iddo the Prophet, saying,
Darius kah a kum bae nah, hla hlai khat, Shebat hla hnin kul hnin li vaengah, BOEIPA ol te Iddo koca Berekiah capa tonghma Zekhariah taengla cet tih a thui.
8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding vpon a red horse, and hee stood among the mirre trees, that were in a bottome, and behinde him were there red horses speckeled and white.
“Khoyin kah ka hmuh dongah hlang te marhang ling dongah tarha ana ngol. Anih te cuihal ding kah a cok ah pai. A hnukkah marhang rhoek tah a ling, a pol neh a bok om.
9 Then sayd I, O my Lord, what are these? And the Angel that talked with me, sayde vnto me, I wil shew thee what these be.
Te vaengah, ‘Ka boeipa balae he?’” ka ti nah. Te vaengah kai taengah aka cal puencawn loh kai taengah, “Amih rhoek balae ti khaw kamah loh nang kan tueng eh,” a ti.
10 And the man that stood among the mirre trees, answered, and sayd, These are they whome the Lord hath sent to go through the world.
Te phoeiah cuihal ding kah aka pai hlang loh a doo tih, “He rhoek he diklai ah pongpa hamla BOEIPA loh a tueih coeng,” a ti.
11 And they answered the Angel of the Lord, that stood among the mirre trees, and sayd, We haue gone thorowe the world: and beholde, all the world sitteth still, and is at rest.
Te vaengah cuihal ding kah aka pai BOEIPA puencawn te a doo uh tih, “Diklai ah ka pongpa uh coeng dae diklai pum kah khosa khaw mong ngawn ke,” a ti uh.
12 Then the Angel of the Lord answered and sayd, O Lord of hostes, howe long wilt thou be vnmercifull to Ierusalem, and to the cities of Iudah, with whom thou hast bene displeased now these threescore and ten yeeres?
Te dongah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh a doo tih, “Caempuei BOEIPA aw, Jerusalem neh Judah khopuei rhoek te me hil nim na haidam pawt ve? Te te kum sawmrhih kosi na hong thil coeng,” a ti nah.
13 And the Lord answered the Angel that talked with me, with good wordes and comfortable wordes.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh kai taengah aka cal puencawn te hloephoelhnah ol then ol neh a doo.
14 So the Angel that communed with me, said vnto me, Crie thou, and speake, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I am ielous ouer Ierusalem and Zion with a great zeale,
Te phoeiah kai taengah aka cal puencawn loh kai taengah, “Khue lamtah, ‘Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem ham ka thatlai tih Zion ham khaw thatlainah len.
15 And am greatly angrie against the carelesse heathen: for I was angrie but a litle, and they helped forward the affliction.
Tedae kai he namtom hlang aka lawn taengah thinhul bat la ka thintoek. Ka thintoek khaw yol dae amih loh boethae te a koei uh.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Ierusalem with tender mercie: mine house shall be builded in it, saith the Lord of hostes, and a line shall be stretched vpon Ierusalem.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Jerusalem la haidamnah neh ka mael ni. A khuiah ka im a sak ni. He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Jerusalem te rhilam rhui ka toe ni,’ ti nah.
17 Cry yet, and speake, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, My cities shall yet be broken with plentie: the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet chuse Ierusalem.
“Koep pang lamtah, ‘Caempuei BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Ka khopuei rhoek ah hnothen neh baesawt pueng ni. BOEIPA loh Zion te koep a hloep vetih Jerusalem te koep a coelh ni,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
18 Then lift I vp mine eyes and sawe, and beholde, foure hornes.
Te phoeiah ka mik te ka huel tih ka sawt hatah ki pali lawt ka hmuh.
19 And I said vnto the Angel that talked with me, What be these? And hee answered me, These are the hornes which haue scattered Iudah, Israel, and Ierusalem.
Te dongah kai taengah aka cal puencawn te, “Balae he?” ka ti nah. Tedae kai taengah, “He ki rhoek loh Judah, Israel neh Jerusalem a thaek,” a ti.
20 And the Lord shewed me foure carpenters.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai te kutthai pali n'tueng.
21 Then said I, What come these to doe? And he answered, and said, These are the hornes, which haue scattered Iudah, so that a man durst not lift vp his head: but these are come to fray them, and to cast out the hornes of the Gentiles, which lift vp their horne ouer the land of Iudah, to scatter it.
Te vaengah, “Amih aka lo long he balae a saii eh?” ka ti nah. Te dongah, “He rhoek kah ki loh Judah te a thaek uh tih hlang ol bangla a lu khaw dangrhoek thai pawh. Tedae Judah khohmuen aka tlai thil tih aka thaek ki, namtom kah ki te omtoem ham neh amih te lakueng sak hamla ha pai uh,” a ti.
