Zechariah 6
1 And I again lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, there came out four chariots from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of copper.
Ani ammas ol nan milʼadhe; kunoo gaariiwwan afur kanneen gaarran lama jechuunis tulluuwwan naasii gidduu gad baʼan nan arge!
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot, black horses:
Gaariin jalqabaa fardeen didiimoo, lammaffaan gugurraa,
3 And in the third chariot, white horses; and in the fourth chariot, grizzled, ash-colored horses.
sadaffaan adaadii, afuraffaan immoo farda daamaa qaba ture; isaan hundinuu jajjaboo turan.
4 And I began and said unto the angel that spoke with me, What are these, my lord?
Anis, “Yaa gooftaa ko, isaan kunneen maali?” jedheen ergamaa Waaqayyoo natti dubbachaa ture sana gaafadhe.
5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth after having stood before the Lord of all the earth.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis akkana jedhee naaf deebise; “Isaan kunneen hafuurota samii afran fuula Gooftaa lafa hundaa dura iddoo dhaabachaa turanii gad baʼanii dha.
6 The [chariot] on which are black horses—these go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go forth toward the south country.
Kan fardeen gugurraa qabu gara biyya kaabaa deema; kan fardeen adaadii qabu gara biyya lixa biiftuu deema; kan fardeen daamaa qabu immoo gara biyya kibbaa deemaa.”
7 And the red-colored were gone forth, and sought to traverse the earth: and he said, Go, traverse the earth. So they traversed the earth.
Fardeen jajjaboon sun yeroo gad baʼanitti guutummaa lafaa irra asii fi achi deemuu barbaadanii turan. Innis “Guutummaa lafaa irra deemaa!” jedheen. Kanaafuu isaan guutummaa lafaa irra deeman.
8 Then cried he loudly unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, Behold, these that are going toward the north country, have quieted [the indignation of] my spirit in the north country.
Ergasii inni na waamee, “Ilaali, warri gara biyya kaabaa deeman sun biyya kaabaatti Hafuura koo boqochiisaniiru” naan jedhe.
9 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
10 Take from the exiles, from Cheldai, from Tobiyahu, and from Yeda'yah, and thou shalt come on the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephanyah, whither they have arrived from Babylon;
“Boojiʼamtoota Baabilon irraa dhufan jechuunis Heldaayi, Xoobbiyaa fi Yedaaʼiyaa irraa meetii fi warqee fuudhi. Gaafasuma gara mana Yosiyaas ilma Sefaaniyaa dhaqi.
11 Take also silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak the high priest;
Meetii fi warqee sana fuudhiitii gonfoo tolchi; gonfoo sanas mataa Iyyaasuu lubicha ol aanaa ilma Yehoozaadaaq irra kaaʼi.
12 And thou shalt say unto him as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold a man, Sprout is his name; since out of his own place shall he sprout up, even he shall build the temple of the Lord:
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha, jedhii itti himi: ‘Kunoo namichi maqaan isaa Damee jedhamu tokko as jira; innis damee baasee iddoo isaatii dagaagee dhaqee mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ijaara.
13 Yea, he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and a priest shall be upon his own throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between both of them.
Namni mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ijaaru isa; inni ulfina uffatee teessoo isaa irra taaʼee ni bulcha. Inni teessoo isaa irratti luba taʼa. Walii galteen nagaas isaan lamaan gidduu ni jiraata.’
14 And the crowns shall be for Chelem, and for Tobiyah, and for Yeda'yah, and for Chen the son of Zephanyah, as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
Gonfoon sunis yaadannoo Heelem, Xoobbiyaa, Yedaaʼiyaatii fi Heeni ilma Sefaaniyaa tiif mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa ni kaaʼama.
15 And distant ones shall come and build on the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God.
Warri fagoo jiraatan dhufanii ijaarsa mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo ni gargaaru; isinis akka Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isinitti na erge ni beektu. Yoo isin akka gaarii Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniif ajajamtan wanni kun ni taʼa.”
