< Zechariah 8 >
1 Againe the worde of the Lord of hostes came to me, saying,
Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a kunana,
2 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I was ielous for Zion with great ielousie, and I was ielous for her with great wrath.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Ipatpategko ti Sion iti nasged nga ayat, ipatpategko unay daytoy ken nakapungtotak unay kadagiti kabusorna!'
3 Thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Zion, and wil dwel in the mids of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem shalbe called a citie of trueth, and the Mountaine of the Lord of hostes, the holy Mountaine.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Agsubliakto iti Sion ket agnaedakto iti tengnga ti Jerusalem, ta maawaganto ti Jerusalem a Ti Siudad ti Kinapudno ken maawaganto ti bantay ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a Nasantoan a Bantay!”
4 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, There shall yet olde men and olde women dwell in the streetes of Ierusalem, and euery man with his staffe in his hand for very age.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Addanto manen dagiti lallakay ken babbaket kadagiti kalsada ti Jerusalem, ket agkasapulanto ti tunggal tao iti sarukod gapu iti kinalakayna wenno kinabaketna.
5 And the streetes of the citie shalbe full of boyes and girles, playing in the streetes thereof.
Ken mapnonto dagiti kalsada ti siudad kadagiti ubbing a lallaki ken babbai nga agay-ayam kadagitoy.”'
6 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Though it be vnpossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these dayes, should it therefore be vnpossible in my sight, sayth the Lord of hostes?
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, no adda iti kasla saan a nakapappapati iti imatang dagiti nakalasat a tattao ti Juda, kasla saan met kadi a nakapappapati daytoy iti imatangko?'”—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
7 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will deliuer my people from the East countrey, and from the West countrey.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Adtoy, umadanin ti panangispalko kadagiti tattaok iti daga a pagsingisingan ken paglennekan ti init!
8 And I wil bring them, and they shall dwel in the mids of Ierusalem, and they shalbe my people, and I wil be their God in trueth, and in righteousnes.
Gapu ta isublikto ida, ket agnaeddanto iti tengnga ti Jerusalem, isu nga agbalindanto manen a tattaok, ket siakto ti Diosda iti kinapudno ken iti kinalinteg!’”
9 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Let your hands be strong, ye that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of the Prophets, which were in the day, that the foundation of the House of the Lord of hostes was laide, that the Temple might be builded.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: Dakayo nga agtultuloy a makangkangngeg ita kadagiti isu met laeng a sasao manipud kadagiti profeta idi naisaad ti pundasion ti balayko—daytoy a balayko, a ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: Pakirdenyo ti pakinakemyo tapno maipatakder ti templo.
10 For before these dayes there was no hire for man nor any hire for beast, neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men, euery one against his neighbour.
Ta sakbay dagidiay nga al-aldaw, awan ti mula a maapit ti siasinoman; awanto ti magunggona ti tao wenno ayup. Ken awan ti kappia iti siasinoman a rummuar ken umuneg gapu kadagiti kabusor. Pinagbibinnusorko dagiti amin a tattao.
11 But nowe, I wil not intreate the residue of this people as aforetime, saith the Lord of hostes.
Ngem ita, saanen a kas kadagiti napalabas nga al-aldaw; makikaaddaakto kadagiti tattao a nakasubli manipud iti pannakaitalaw a kas balud!”' Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
12 For the seede shall be prosperous: the vine shall giue her fruite, and the ground shall giue her increase, and the heauens shall giue their dewe, and I will cause the remnant of this people to possesse all these things.
'“Ta natalgedto dagiti tattao nga agmula kadagiti bukel. Agbunganto dagiti agkalatkat nga ubas ket adunto ti maapit kadagiti talon. Ipaayto dagiti tangatang dagiti linnaawda, ta ipatawidkonto amin dagitoy a banbanag kadagiti tattao a nakasubli manipud iti pannakaitalaw a kas balud.
13 And it shall come to passe, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Iudah, and house of Israel, so wil I deliuer you, and ye shalbe a blessing: feare not, but let your hands be strong.
Dakayo ti pangipadaan dagiti dadduma a nasion iti pannakailunod, balay ti Juda ken balay ti Israel. Ngem ispalenlayonto ket bendisionankayonto. Saankayo nga agbuteng; agbalinkayo koma a napigsa ken natured!”’
14 For thus sayth the Lord of hostes, As I thought to punish you, when your fathers prouoked me vnto wrath, sayth the Lord of hostes, and repented not,
“Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Kas iti panangpanggepko a mangdusa kadakayo idi pinagpungtotdak dagiti kapuonanyo,' ket saan a bimmaaw, kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin,
15 So againe haue I determined in these daies to doe well vnto Ierusalem, and to the house of Iudah: feare ye not.
isu a panggepko kadagitoy nga al-aldaw a mangaramid manen iti naimbag iti Jerusalem ken iti balay ti Juda! Saankayo nga agbuteng!
16 These are ye things that ye shall doe. Speake ye euery man the trueth vnto his neighbour: execute iudgement truely and vprightly in your gates,
Dagitoy ti masapul nga aramidenyo: Agsaokayo iti pudno, tunggal tao iti kaarrubana. Mangukomkayo a sipupudno, sililinteg, ken sitatalna kadagiti pangukomanyo.
17 And let none of you imagine euill in your hearts against his neighbour, and loue no false othe: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
Ket awan koma ti agpanggep iti dakes kadagiti kaarrubayo, wenno anamungan dagiti palso a sapata; ta kagurak amin dagitoy a banbanag!'” Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
18 And the worde of the Lord of hostes came vnto me, saying,
Ket immay kaniak ti mensahe ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a kunana,
19 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, The fast of the fourth moneth, and the fast of the fift, and the fast of the seuenth, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Iudah ioy and gladnes, and prosperous hie feasts: therefore loue the trueth and peace.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Dagiti panagayunar iti maikapat, iti maikalima, iti maikapito ken iti maikasangapulo a bulan ket agbalinto a tiempo iti panagrag-o, kinaragsak, ken naragsak a fiesta dagiti tattao ti Juda! Ngarud, ayatenyo ti kinapudno ken kappia!”
20 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, That there shall yet come people, and the inhabitants of great cities.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Mapanto manen dagiti tattao idiay Jerusalem, uray dagiti agnanaed kadagiti adu a nadumaduma a siudad.
21 And they that dwell in one citie, shall go to another, saying, Vp, let vs go and pray before the Lord, and seeke the Lord of hostes: I wil go also.
Mapanto iti sabali a siudad dagiti agnanaed iti maysa a siudad ket kunada, “Pardasantayo ti mapan agkiddaw iti bendision kenni Yahweh ken agdayaw kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin! Mapankami met.'”
22 Yea, great people and mightie nations shall come to seeke the Lord of hostes in Ierusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
Adunto a tattao ken nabibileg a nasion ti mapan idiay Jerusalem tapno agdayaw kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ken agkiddaw iti bendision kenni Yahweh!”
23 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, In those dayes shall ten men take holde out of all languages of the nations, euen take holde of the skirt of him that is a Iewe, and say, We will go with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw, sangapulo a lallaki manipud iti amin a pagsasao ken nasion ti kumpet iti gayadan ti kagaymo ket kunada, “Ipalubosmo a makikuyogkami kenka, gapu ta nangngeganmi nga adda kenka ti Dios!"”'
