Zechariah 12
1 The burden of the worde of the Lord vpon Israel, sayth the Lord, which spred the heauens, and layed the foundation of the earth, and formed the spirite of man within him.
Iri ndiro shoko raJehovha pamusoro peIsraeri. Jehovha, iye anotatamura matenga, anoteya nheyo dzenyika, uye anoumba mweya womunhu uri mukati make, anoti:
2 Beholde, I will make Ierusalem a cuppe of poyson vnto all the people round about: and also with Iudah will he be, in ye siege against Ierusalem.
“Ndichaita kuti Jerusarema rive mukombe uchadzedzeresa ndudzi dzose dzavanhu vakapoteredza. Judha ichakombwa pamwe chete neJerusarema.
3 And in that day will I make Ierusalem an heauie stone for all people: all that lift it vp, shall be torne, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
Pazuva iro, ndudzi dzose dzenyika padzichaungana kuti dzirirwise, ndichaita kuti Jerusarema rive ibwe risingazungunuswi kundudzi dzose. Vose vachaedza kurizungunusa vachazvikuvadza.
4 In that day, sayeth the Lord, I will smite euery horse with astonishment, and his rider with madnesse, and I will open mine eyes vpon the house of Iudah, and will smite euery horse of the people with blindnesse.
Pazuva iro ndicharova bhiza rimwe nerimwe nokutya uye mutasvi waro nokupenga,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ndicharamba ndakatarira paimba yaJudha, asi ndichapofumadza mabhiza ose endudzi.
5 And the princes of Iudah shall say in their hearts, The inhabitants of Ierusalem shall be my strength in the Lord of hostes their God.
Ipapo vatungamiri veJudha vachati mumwoyo yavo, ‘Vanhu veJerusarema vakasimba, nokuti Jehovha Wamasimba Ose ndiye Mwari wavo.’
6 In that day will I make the princes of Iudah like coles of fire among the wood, and like a fire brand in the sheafe, and they shall deuoure all the people round about on the right hand, and on the left: and Ierusalem shall be inhabited againe in her owne place, euen in Ierusalem.
“Pazuva iro ndichaita kuti vatungamiri veJudha vaite segango pakati pehuni, uye sezhenje romoto pakati pezvisote. Vachaparadza kurudyi nokuruboshwe ndudzi dzose dzavanhu vakapoteredza, asi Jerusarema richaramba riri panzvimbo paro.
7 The Lord also shall preserue the tents of Iudah, as afore time: therefore the glorie of the house of Dauid shall not boast, nor the glorie of the inhabitants of Ierusalem against Iudah.
“Jehovha achaponesa misha yeJudha kutanga, kuitira kuti kukudzwa kweimba yaDhavhidhi uye nokwavagari vomuJerusarema kurege kupfuura kweJudha.
8 In that day shall the Lord defende the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and he that is feeble among them, in that day shall be as Dauid: and the house of Dauid shall be as Gods house, and as the Angel of the Lord before them.
Pazuva iroro Jehovha achadzivirira vaya vagere muJerusarema, zvokuti anoshayiwa simba pakati pavo achava saDhavhidhi, uye imba yaDhavhidhi ichava saMwari, soMutumwa waJehovha anoenda pamberi pavo.
9 And in that day will I seeke to destroy all the nations that come against Ierusalem.
Pazuva iroro ndichaenda kundoparadza ndudzi dzose dzinorwisa Jerusarema.
10 And I will powre vpon the house of Dauid, and vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem the Spirite of grace and of compassion, and they shall looke vpon me, whom they haue pearced, and they shall lament for him, as one mourneth for his onely sonne, and be sorie for him as one is sorie for his first borne.
“Uye ndichadurura mweya wenyasha newokunyengetera paimba yaDhavhidhi uye napavagari veJerusarema. Vachatarisa kwandiri, iye wavakabaya, uye vachamuchema souya anochema mwana wake mumwe oga, uye vachachema kwazvo souya anochema mwanakomana wedangwe.
11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Ierusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
Pazuva iro muJerusarema muchava nokuchema kukuru sokuchema kweHadhadhi Rimoni mubani reMegidho.
12 And the land shall bewayle euery familie apart, the familie of the house of Dauid apart, and their wiues apart: the familie of the house of Nathan apart, and their wiues apart:
Nyika ichachema, mhuri imwe neimwe iri yoga, nevakadzi vavo vari voga:
13 The familie of the house of Leui apart, and their wiues apart: the familie of Shemei apart, and their wiues apart:
mhuri yeimba yaRevhi navakadzi vavo, mhuri yaShimei navakadzi vavo,
14 All the families that remaine, euery familie apart, and their wiues apart.
uye nedzimwe mhuri dzose navakadzi vavo.
