Zechariah 5

1 Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a flying scroll.

Ningĩ ngĩcooka ngĩtiira maitho, na rĩrĩ, hau mbere yakwa ngĩona ibuku-rĩa-gĩkũnjo rĩombũkaga rĩera-inĩ.

2 He said to me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty-nine feet six inches, and its breadth fourteen feet nine inches."

Nake akĩnjũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ ũroona?” Na niĩ ngĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndĩrona ibuku-rĩa-gĩkũnjo rĩrombũka rĩera-inĩ, rĩrĩ na ũraihu wa mĩkono mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na wariĩ wa mĩkono ikũmi.”

3 Then he said to me, "This is the curse that goes out over the surface of the whole land; for everyone who steals shall be cut off according to it on the one side; and everyone who swears falsely shall be cut off according to it on the other side.

Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Gĩkĩ nĩ kĩrumi kĩrĩa gĩgũtambũrũka bũrũri wothe; nĩgũkorwo kũringana na ũrĩa mwena ũmwe warĩo wandĩkĩtwo, mũici o wothe no nginya agaathaamio, naguo mwena ũcio ũngĩ warĩo ũkandĩkwo atĩrĩ, ũrĩa wothe wĩhĩtaga na maheeni nĩagathaamio.

4 I will cause it to go out," says Jehovah of hosts, "and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name; and it will remain in the midst of his house, and will destroy it with its timber and its stones."

Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngatũma kĩrumi kĩu, nakĩo nĩgĩgatoonya nyũmba ya mũici na nyũmba ya ũrĩa wĩhĩtaga na maheeni akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa. Gĩgaikara nyũmba yake na kĩmĩanange yothe, kĩanange mbaũ ciayo na mahiga mayo.’”

5 Then the angel who talked with me came forward, and said to me, "Lift up now your eyes, and see what is this that is appearing."

Ningĩ mũraika ũrĩa wanjaragĩria akiumĩra akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Tiira maitho wone nĩ kĩĩ gĩkĩ kĩroimĩra.”

6 And I said, "What is it?" And he said, "This is the ephah basket that is appearing." And he said moreover, "This is their iniquity throughout the land."

Ngĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩkĩ?” Nake akĩnjookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ gĩkabũ gĩa gũthima.” Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩguo waganu wa andũ, ũrĩa ũrĩ bũrũri wothe.”

7 And look, a lead cover was raised up, and there was a woman sitting in the basket.

Nakĩo gĩkunĩko gĩa kĩgera gĩgĩkunũrwo, na rĩrĩ, hau thĩinĩ wa gĩkabũ ngĩona mũndũ-wa-nja waikarĩte thĩ ho.

8 And he said, "This is Wickedness;" and he threw her down into the midst of the ephah basket; and he placed the lead cover over its mouth.

Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩwe Nyawaganu,” nake akĩmũcookia thĩinĩ wa gĩkabũ na agĩgĩkunĩka na gĩkunĩko kĩu gĩa kĩgera.

9 Then lifted I up my eyes, and saw, and look, there were two women, and the wind was in their wings. Now they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah basket between earth and the sky.

Ngĩcooka ngĩtiira maitho, na rĩrĩ, hau mbere yakwa ngĩona andũ-a-nja eerĩ, mareretio nĩ rũhuho; tondũ maarĩ na mathagu ta ma njũũ, makĩoya gĩkabũ kĩu magĩgĩtwara rĩera-inĩ.

10 Then said I to the angel who talked with me, "Where are these carrying the ephah basket?"

Ngĩũria mũraika ũcio wanjaragĩria atĩrĩ, “Maratwara gĩkabũ kĩu kũ?”

11 He said to me, "To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place."

Nake akĩnjookeria atĩrĩ, “Maragĩtwara bũrũri wa Babuloni magagĩakĩre nyũmba kuo. Yarĩka-rĩ, gĩkabũ kĩu makĩige kuo handũ hakĩo.”
