< Zechariah 8 >

1 AGAIN the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying,
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amo sia: ne iasu, Segalaiama i,
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
“Na da Yelusaleme fidimusa: bagade dadawa: la. Bai Na da Yelusaleme fi dunuma bagade oso dogone asigisa. Na da Yelusaleme fi dunuma asigiba: le, Na da ilia ha lai dunu ilima bagadewane ougi gala.
3 Thus saith the Lord; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the Lord of hosts the holy mountain.
Na da Yelusaleme, Na hadigi moilai bai bagade fi ilima buhagili amogai esalumu. Amasea, ilia Yelusalemega Dafawanedafa Moilai bai bagade dio asulimu. Amola Gadodafa Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea goumi, amoma ilia da Hadigidafa Goumi dio asulimu.
4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
Bu enowane, da: i hamoi dunu amola uda da bagadedafa da: i hamoi ba: le, ilia da galiamoga ili ahoabe da Yelusaleme gagoi ganodini esalebe ba: mu.
5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
Amola bu enowane, logoba: le da dunu mano amola uda mano bagohamedafa da hehedela lafia: lebe ba: mu.
6 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.
Amo hou da Isala: ili fi dunu waha hame bogoi esalebe, ilia hamomu defele hame ba: mu. Be Na da amo hamomu defele gala.
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
Na da Na fi dunu eno sogega mugululi oule asi, amo gaga: mu.
8 And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
Na da ili gusudili amola guma: dini amoga lale, bu Yelusaleme amoga esaloma: ne oule misunu. Ilia da Na fi dunu esalumu, amola Na da ilia Gode esalumu. Amola Na da mae fisili, moloidafawane ili ouligimu.
9 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.
Mae beda: ma! Yelusaleme fi dunu da Na Debolo Diasu bai fa: lalu, balofede dunu da Na waha sia: i liligi dilima sia: i. Amola dilia da amo waha bu naba.
10 For before these days 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 every one against his neighbour.
Amo eso hame doaga: iyawane, dunu da hame gaguiba: le, dunu o ohe hawa: hamomusa: bidi lamu da hamedei ba: i. Amola ha lai dunu bagohameba: le, gaga: su ba: mu da hamedei ba: i. Bai Na da dunu ili gobele gegema: ne hamonesi.
11 But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the Lord of hosts.
Be Isala: ili fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe, ilima Na da wali hou hisu hamonana.
12 For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
Ilia da olofoiwane ilia ha: i manu sagamu. Waini efe da fage legemu, osoboga da ha: i manu heda: mu, amola gibu bagade da sa: imu. Na da amo hahawane dogolegele hou huluane Na fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe, ilima hamomu.
13 And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands be strong.
Yuda dunu amola Isala: ili dunu! Musa: ga fi dunu da eno enoia amane gagabusu aligima: ne ilegele sia: i, ‘Gugunufinisisu hou amo da Yuda amola Isala: ili fi ilima doaga: i da dilima doaga: ma: ne ninia da ilegesa.’ Be Na da dili gaga: mu. Amasea, amo ga fi dunu da eno enoia amane sia: mu, ‘Hahawane dogolegele hou amo da Yuda amola Isala: ili fi ilima doaga: i, amo defele dilima doaga: mu da defea.’ Amaiba: le, dilia dogo denesini, mae beda: ma!”
14 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord of hosts, and I repented not:
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Dilia aowalalia da Na ougima: ne hamobeba: le, Na da ili wadela: lesima: ne ilegei. Amola Na asigi dawa: su mae afadenene, dafawane amo ilegei hamoi dagoi.
15 So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
Be wali Na da Yelusaleme fi amola Yuda fi ilima hahawane dogolegele ima: ne ilegelala. Amaiba: le, mae beda: ma!
16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
Dilia amo hou agoane hamoma; ‘Eno enoma dafawane sia: fawane sia: ma! Fofada: su diasu ganodini, moloidafa hou (hou amo da olofosu iaha) amo fawane hamoma.
17 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the Lord.
Dilia eno enoma se imunusa: mae ilegema. Dilia fofada: su ganodini, ilegele sia: sea, ogogosu sia: mae sia: ma. Na da ogogosu amola moloi hame hou amola gegene nimi dasu hou huluane bagade higasa.’”
18 And the word of the Lord of hosts came unto me, saying,
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da Segalaiama amane sia: ne i,
19 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace.
“Ha: i mae nawene gilisisu dilia da oubi biyadu amola bi amola fesu amola nabu amoga hamosa, amo Na da afadenene Yuda dunu ilia nodone hahawane lolo nasu bu hamomu. Dilia asigi hou, dafawane hou amola olofosu hou amo hanama!”
20 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Eso da mana, amoga ga fi dunu amo da moilai bai bagade bagohame amoga esalebe da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega misunu.
21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also.
Moilai bai bagade dunu eno da moilai bai bagade dunu enoma amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodone sia: ne gadoma: ne amola Ea hahawane dogolegele fidisu hogole ba: ma: ne masunu. Nini ahoa: di! Misa!’
22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
Fifi asi gala bagohame ilia dunu amola gasa bagade fifi asi gala fi dunu ilia da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: amola Ema Ea hahawane dogolegele fidisu edegema: ne, Yelusalemema misunu.
23 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
Amo esoha, ga fi dunu nabuane gala da Yu dunu afae amoma misini, ema amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia dima hobea misunu hou amo gilisili ba: mu hanai gala. Bai Gode da dili esala, amo sia: be ninia nabi dagoi.’”
