Zechariah 7
1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, [that] the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah in the fourth [day] of the ninth month, [even] in Chisleu;
Iti maikapat a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Dario, iti maikapat nga aldaw ti Kislev (nga isu ti maikasiam a bulan), immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Zacarias.
2 When they had sent unto the house of God Sherezer and Regem-melech, and their men, to pray before the LORD,
Imbaon dagiti tattao ti Betel da Sarezer ken Regemmelek agraman dagiti tattaoda a mapan agkiddaw iti pabor kenni Yahweh.
3 [And] to speak unto the priests which [were] in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?
Nakisaritada kadagiti papadi nga adda iti balay ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ken kadagiti profeta; kinunada, “Rumbeng kadi nga agladingitak iti maikalima a bulan babaen iti panagayunar, kas iti inar-aramidko kadagiti adu a tawtawen?”
4 Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying,
Isu nga immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin a kunana,
5 Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh [month], even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, [even] to me?
“Kasaritam dagiti amin a tattao iti daga ken dagiti papadi ket ibagam, 'Idi nagayunar ken nagladingitkayo iti maikalima ken iti maikapito a bulan kadagitoy a pitopulo a tawen, pudno kadi a nagay-ayunarkayo a para kaniak?
6 And when ye did eat, and when ye did drink, did not ye eat [for yourselves], and drink [for yourselves]?
Ken idi nangan ken imminumkayo, saan kadi a nangan ken imminumkayo para kadagiti bagbagiyo laeng?
7 [Should ye] not [hear] the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when [men] inhabited the south and the plain?
Saan kadi a dagitoy met laeng a sasao ti impakaammo ni Yahweh babaen kadagiti immun-una a profeta, idi agnanaedkayo pay laeng a narang-ay idiay Jerusalem ken kadagiti kabangibang a siudad ken nagtaeng idiay Negev, ken kadagiti arisadsad ti turod iti laud?”'
8 And the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah, saying,
Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Zacarias a kunana,
9 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother:
“Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: 'Nalinteg koma ti panangukomyo, napudnokayo iti tulag ken agbalinkayo a naasi. Aramiden koma daytoy ti tunggal tao para iti kabsatna.
10 And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.
No maipapan iti balo ken ulila, ti ganggannaet, ken ti nakurapay a tao—saanyo ida a parigaten. Ken tapno saankayo a makaaramid iti aniaman a dakes iti tunggal maysa—masapul a saankayo nga agpanggep iti pusoyo nga agaramid iti dakes.'
11 But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.
Ngem saanda nga impangag ken saanda a kayat nga agtulnog; inapputanda dagiti lapayagda tapno saanda a mangngeg.
12 Yea, they made their hearts [as] an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.
Inkeddengda a saanda a dumngeg iti linteg wenno kadagiti sasao ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin. Impatulodna dagitoy a mensahe kadagiti tattao babaen iti Espirituna idi un-unana a tiempo, babaen kadagiti sasao dagiti profeta. Ngem saan a dimngeg dagiti tattao, isu a nakapungtot unay kadakuada ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
13 Therefore it is come to pass, [that] as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts:
Ket napasamak nga idi immawag isuna, saanda a dimngeg. 'Iti isu met laeng a wagas, kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, 'umawagdanto kaniak, ngem saanakto a dumngeg.
14 But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land desolate.
Gapu ta iwarawarakto ida babaen iti alipugpog kadagiti amin a nasion a saanda pay a nakitkita, ket kalpasanda a maiwarawara, agbalinto a langalang ti daga. Ta awanto ti tao nga agdaliasat iti daga wenno agsubli iti daytoy agsipud ta pinagbalin dagiti tattao ti makaay-ayo a dagada iti maysa a langalang a daga.'”
