Zechariah 14
1 Beholde, the day of the Lord commeth, and thy spoyle shall be deuided in the middes of thee.
Khangela, usuku lweNkosi luyeza, lempango yakho izakwehlukaniswa phakathi kwakho.
2 For I will gather all nations against Ierusalem to battell, and the citie shall be taken, and the houses spoyled, and the women defiled, and halfe of the citie shall goe into captiuitie, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from ye citie.
Ngoba ngizabuthanisa zonke izizwe zimelane leJerusalema empini; njalo umuzi uzathunjwa, lezindlu ziphangwe, labesifazana badlwengulwe; lengxenye yomuzi izaphuma iye ekuthunjweni, kodwa insali yabantu kayiyikuqunywa isuke emzini.
3 Then shall the Lord goe foorth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battell.
Khona iNkosi izaphuma, ilwe imelene lalezozizwe, njengamhla isilwa ngosuku lwempi.
4 And his feete shall stand in that day vpon the mount of oliues, which is before Ierusalem on the Eastside, and the mount of oliues shall cleaue in the middes thereof: toward the East and toward the West there shalbe a very great valley, and halfe of ye mountaine shall remooue toward the North, and halfe of the mountaine towarde the South.
Langalolosuku inyawo zayo zizakuma entabeni yeMihlwathi, emaqondana leJerusalema ngasempumalanga; lentaba yeMihlwathi izaqhekezeka phakathi kwayo ngasempumalanga langasentshonalanga, kube lesihotsha esikhulukazi; lengxenye yentaba izatshedela ngasenyakatho, lengxenye yayo ngaseningizimu.
5 And yee shall flee vnto the valley of the mountaines: for the valley of the mountaines shall reache vnto Azal: yea, yee shall flee like as ye fled from the earthquake in the daies of Vzziah King of Iudah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the Saints with thee.
Lizabaleka-ke ngesihotsha sezintaba zami; ngoba isihotsha sezintaba sizafinyelela eAzali. Yebo, lizabaleka njengokubaleka kwenu phambi kokuzamazama komhlaba ngezinsuku zikaUziya inkosi yakoJuda. Khona iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami izafika, labo bonke abangcwele belawe.
6 And in that day shall there bee no cleare light, but darke.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku kungabi khona ukukhanya, kumbe mnyama.
7 And there shall bee a day (it is knowen to the Lord) neither day nor night, but about the euening time it shall be light.
Kodwa kuzakuba lusuku olulodwa oluzakwaziwa eNkosini, kungabi yimini, kungabi yibusuku; kodwa kuzakuthi ngesikhathi sakusihlwa kube khona ukukhanya.
8 And in that day shall there waters of life goe out from Ierusalem, halfe of them towarde the East sea, and halfe of them towarde the vttermost sea, and shall be, both in sommer and winter.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, amanzi aphilayo aphume eJerusalema; ingxenye yawo iye ngaselwandle lwasempumalanga, lengxenye yawo iye ngaselwandle lwentshonalanga; kuzakuba khona ehlobo lebusika.
9 And the Lord shall bee King ouer all the earth: in that day shall there bee one Lord, and his Name shalbe one.
Njalo uJehova uzakuba yiNkosi phezu komhlaba wonke; ngalolosuku kuzakuba leNkosi eyodwa, lebizo layo libe linye.
10 All the lande shall bee turned as a plaine from Geba to Rimmon, towarde the South of Ierusalem, and it shall be lifted vp, and inhabited in her place: from Beniamins gate vnto the place of the first gate, vnto the corner gate, and from the towre of Hananiel, vnto the Kings wine presses.
Ilizwe lonke lizaphendulwa libe njengegceke kusukela eGeba kuze kube seRimoni eningizimu kweJerusalema; liphakanyiswe, lihlale endaweni yalo, kusukela esangweni lakoBhenjamini kuze kube sendaweni yesango lokuqala, kuze kube sesangweni lengonsi, njalo kusukela emphotshongweni kaHananeli kuze kube sezikhamelweni zewayini zenkosi.
11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall bee no more destruction, but Ierusalem shall bee safely inhabited.
Njalo bazahlala kilo, kungabe kusaba khona ukutshabalala; kodwa iJerusalema izahlala ivikelekile.
12 And this shall bee the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite all people, that haue fought against Ierusalem: their flesh shall consume away, though they stand vpon their feete, and their eyes shall consume in their holes, and their tongue shall consume in their mouth.
Lalokhu kuzakuba yinhlupheko iNkosi ezatshaya ngayo zonke izizwe ezilwe zimelene leJerusalema: Izabolisa inyama yazo zisemi ngenyawo zazo, lamehlo azo abolele ezikhoxweni zawo, lolimi lwazo lubolele emlonyeni wazo.
13 But in that day a great tumult of the Lord shall be among them, and euery one shall take the hande of his neighbour, and his hande shall rise vp against the hand of his neighbour.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, isiphithiphithi esikhulu seNkosi sibe phakathi kwabo; babambe ngulowo lalowo isandla sikamakhelwane wakhe, futhi isandla sakhe siphakamele ukumelana lesandla sikamakhelwane wakhe.
14 And Iudah shall fight also against Ierusalem, and the arme of all the heathen shall be gathered rounde about, with golde and siluer, and great abundance of apparell.
LoJuda laye uzakulwa eJerusalema; lenotho yazo zonke izizwe ezizingelezeleyo izabuthwa, igolide lesiliva lezembatho ngobunengi obukhulu.
15 Yet this shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camell and of the asse and of all the beasts that be in these tents as this plague.
Izakuba njalo-ke inhlupheko yebhiza, eyembongolo, eyekamela, lekababhemi, leyazo zonke inyamazana ezizakuba kulezizinkamba, njengaleyonhlupheko.
16 But it shall come to passe that euery one that is left of all the nations, which came against Ierusalem, shall goe vp from yere to yere to worship the King the Lord of hostes, and to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.
Kuzakuthi-ke, bonke abaseleyo ezizweni zonke ezazize ukumelana leJerusalema benyuke iminyaka ngeminyaka ukuyakhonza iNkosi, uJehova wamabandla, lokugcina umkhosi wamadumba.
17 And who so will not come vp of all the families of the earth vnto Ierusalem to worship the King the Lord of hostes, euen vpon them shall come no raine.
Kuzakuthi-ke loba ngubani ongayikwenyuka kuzo insapho zomhlaba aye eJerusalema ukukhonza iNkosi, uJehova wamabandla, kakuyikuba khona izulu phezu kwabo.
18 And if the familie of Egypt goe not vp, and come not, it shall not raine vpon them. This shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the heathen, that come not vp to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.
Futhi uba usapho lweGibhithe lungenyuki luze, kakuyikuba lezulu phezu kwalo, kuzakuba lenhlupheko iNkosi ezatshaya ngayo izizwe ezingenyukeli ukuyagcina umkhosi wamadumba.
19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that come not vp to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.
Lokhu kuzakuba yisijeziso sesono seGibhithe, lesijeziso sesono sazo zonke izizwe ezingenyukeli ukugcina umkhosi wamadumba.
20 In that day shall there be written vpon the bridles of the horses, The holinesse vnto the Lord, and the pottes in the Lords house shall be like the bowles before the altar.
Ngalolosuku kuzakuba semabhereni amabhiza: UBUNGCWELE KUJEHOVA; lezimbiza endlini yeNkosi zizakuba njengemiganu yokufafaza phambi kwelathi.
21 Yea, euery potte in Ierusalem and Iudah shall be holy vnto the Lord of hostes, and all they that sacrifice, shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the House of the Lord of hostes.
Yebo, yileyo laleyo imbiza eJerusalema lakoJuda izakuba yibungcwele eNkosini yamabandla, njalo bonke abenza umhlatshelo bazakuza bathathe kuzo, bapheke kuzo. Njalo kakusayikuba khona umKhanani endlini yeNkosi yamabandla ngalolosuku.
