< Zechariah 1 >

1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord unto Zechariah, the son of Berechyah, the son of 'Iddo the prophet, saying,
Oubi godo amola ode ageyadu amo Da: liase ea Besia sogega ouligisu hou amoga, Hina Gode da amo sia: ne iasu amo Segalaia (Belegaia egefe amola Idou ea aowa) ema i.
2 The Lord hath been greatly angry with your fathers.
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da Segalaiama amo sia: Ea fi dunu ilima alofele olelema: ne sia: i, “Na, Hina Gode, da dilia aowalali ilima bagadewane ougi galu.
3 And [now] say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Return ye unto me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will return unto you: so hath said the Lord of hosts.
Be wali Na da dilima sia: sa, ‘Nama buhagima! Amasea, Na da dilima bu misunu!
4 Be ye not like your fathers, unto whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Do return from your evil ways, and your evil doings; but they did not hear, nor listen unto me, saith the Lord.
Dilia aowalali ilia hou agoane mae hamoma. Hemonega, balofede dunu da Na sia: ne iasu ilima i. Ilia da wadela: i hou fisimusa: ilima sia: i. Be ilia da Na sia: hamedafa nabi amola Na hamoma: ne sia: be nabawane hame hamosu.
5 Your fathers, —where are they! and the prophets, — could they live for ever!
Dia aowalali amola amo balofede huluane ilia da bogoi dagoi.
6 But my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, behold, they did overtake your fathers: and [then] they returned and said, Just as the Lord of hosts had purposed to do unto us, in accordance with our ways, and in accordance with our doings, so hath he dealt with us.
Na hawa: hamosu balofede dunu amo ilimadi, Na da dilia aowalali ilima hamoma: ne sia: i amola sisasu dawa: digima: ne sia: ne i. Be ilia amo sia: mae nabane, se dabe lai dagoi. Amalalu, ilia da bu sinidigili, amo Na, Hina Gode Bagadedafa, da ilia hamoi defele amola Na ilegei defele, se dabe ilima i, amo da dafawane ilia da sia: i dagoi.”
7 On the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord unto Zechariah, the son of Berechyahu, the son of 'Iddo the prophet, saying,
Eso 24 amola oubi gidayale (oubi Siba: de) amola ode ageyadu Da: liase ea Besia soge ouligisu amoga, Hina Gode da gasi afaega nama esala ba: su iasi.
8 I saw this night, and behold there was a man riding upon a red horse, and he was standing among the myrtle-trees that were in the deep valley; and behind him were red, pale, and white horses.
Na da ba: loba, Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu yoi hosi da: iya fila heda: le ahoanebe ba: i. E da ‘medele’ ifa labala fago, amo ganodini aliligibi ba: i. Ea baligia hosi eno, mogili yoi, mogili hoholei, mogili ahea: iai, lelebe ba: i.
9 And I said, What are these, O my lord? Then said unto me the angel that spoke with me, I will show thee what these are.
Na da ema adole ba: i, “Hina! Amo hosi ilia bai da adi olelesala: ?” E bu adole i, “Na da dima amo ea bai olelemu!
10 And the man that stood among the myrtle-trees answered and said, These are those whom the Lord hath sent to traverse the earth.
Hina Gode da ili osobo bagade hou abodelalu masa: ne asunasi.”
11 And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have traversed the earth, and, behold, all the earth is inhabited quietly, and is at rest.
Hosi ilia da a: igele dunuma amane sia: ne i, “Ninia da osobo bagade huluane hohogola lalu. Ninia da ba: loba, osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da gasa hamedene amola banenesi dagoi ba: i.”
12 Then commenced the angel of the Lord, and said, O Lord of hosts, how long yet wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast been indignant these seventy years?
Amalalu, a:igele dunu da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa! Di da waha ode 70 agoane, Yelusaleme fi amola Yuda moilai bai bagade hamone gagai fi ilima ougi galu. Di da habogala ilima asigi hou bu olelema: bela: ?”
13 And the Lord answered the angel that spoke with me with good words and comforting words.
Hina Gode da a: igele dunu ea dogo denesima: ne, ema dabe adole i.
14 And the angel that spoke with me said unto me, Proclaim thou, saying, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
Amola a: igele da nama Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea sia: i amo sisia: i lama: ne amane sia: i, “Na da Yelusaleme, Na Hadigi Moilai bai bagade, amoma bagade fofagisa.
15 And with a great anger will I be angry with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little angry [with Zion], and they helped forward the mischief.
Amola, Na da ilima ha lai fifi asi gala amo da hahawane amola olofole esala, ilima bagadewane ougi. Na da Na fi dunuma fonobahadi ougiba: le, ilima se dabe i. Na da eno fifi asi gala dunuma amo hamoma: ne sia: beba: le, ilia da Na fi dunuma gegebeba: le, ilima se bagade i. Be ilia da Na hamoma: ne sia: i baligili, Na fi dunuma se baligili i.
16 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, I am returned to Jerusalem in mercy: my house shall be rebuilt in it, saith the Lord of hosts, and the measuring-line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
Amaiba: le, Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima asigi hou olelema: ne, Yelusalemega buhagi. Na Debolo da bu hahamoi amola Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade da bu buga: le gagui dagoi ba: mu.”
17 Proclaim yet [farther], saying, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, My cities shall again overflow with prosperity: and the Lord will again comfort Zion, and make choice again of Jerusalem.
Amola a: igele da nama na da eno sisia: i lama: ne amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, ‘Na moilai bai bagade ilia da bu bagade gagui ba: mu. Amola Na da Yelusaleme fi bu fidimu amola Yelusaleme da Na moilai bai bagadedafa Na da bu sia: mu.’”
18 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, there were four horns.
Esala ba: su eno ganodini, na da bulamagau hono biyaduyale ba: i.
19 And I said unto the angel who spoke with me, What are these? And he said unto me, These are the horns that have dispersed Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
Na da a: igele dunu (amo da nama sia: dasu) ema amane adole ba: i, “Amo hono ilia bai da adila: ?” E da nama bu adole i, “Ilia bai da gasa bagade fifi asi gala amo da Yuda, Isala: ili amola Yelusaleme amo fi dunu afagogolesi dagoi.”
20 And the Lord showed me four carpenters.
Amalalu, Hina Gode da ha: ma gagui hawa: hamosu dunu biyaduyale nama olei.
21 Then said I, What are these coming to do? And he said as followeth, These are the horns that have dispersed Judah, to the extent that no man could lift up his head; but these are come to terrify them, to cast off the horns of the nations, that have been lifting up their horn over the land of Judah to disperse it.
Na da amane adole ba: i, “Amo dunu ilia adi hamomusa: misibala: ? E da dabe adole i,” Fifi asi gala ha lai dunu ilia da Yuda fi dunu hasalasili, afagogolesi. Ha: ma gagui dunu da amo ha lai fifi asi gala amo beda: ma: ne hamone, hasalasimusa: misi dagoi.”
