Zechariah 6
1 Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.
Ngasengibuya ngaphakamisa amehlo ami, ngabona, khangela-ke, kwaphuma inqola ezine phakathi kwezintaba ezimbili; lezintaba zazizintaba zethusi.
2 In the first chariot were red horses; in the second chariot black horses;
Enqoleni yokuqala kwakulamabhiza abomvu, lenqoleni yesibili amabhiza amnyama,
3 in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot dappled horses, all of them powerful.
lenqoleni yesithathu amabhiza amhlophe, lenqoleni yesine amabhiza alamabala alamandla.
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?"
Ngasengiphendula ngathi kuyo ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami: Ayini lawo, nkosi yami?
5 The angel answered me, "These are the four winds of the sky, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
Ingilosi yasiphendula yathi kimi: Lawo ayimimoya emine yamazulu, ephuma ekumeni phambi kweNkosi yomhlaba wonke.
6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went forth toward the south country."
Amabhiza amnyama akhonapho aphuma esiya elizweni lenyakatho; lamhlophe aphuma ewalandela; lalamabala aphuma esiya elizweni leningizimu.
7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth: and he said, "Go around and through the earth." So they walked back and forth through the earth.
Alamandla asephuma, adinga ukuhamba ukuze aye le lale emhlabeni. Yasisithi: Hambani liye le lale emhlabeni. Asesiya le lale emhlabeni.
8 Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, "Look, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country."
Yasingimemeza, yakhuluma kimi, isithi: Khangela, la aphuma aya elizweni lenyakatho awuphumuzile umoya wami elizweni lenyakatho.
9 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
10 "Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
Thatha kwabathunjiweyo, kuHelidayi, lakuTobiya, lakuJedaya, abavele eBhabhiloni, ubuye wena ngalolosuku, uye endlini kaJosiya indodana kaZefaniya,
11 Take silver and gold, and make a crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the cohen hagadol;
ubusuthatha isiliva legolide, wenze imiqhele, uyibeke phezu kwekhanda likaJoshuwa indodana kaJehozadaki, umpristi omkhulu;
12 and speak to him, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Look, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of the LORD;
ubusukhuluma kuye, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, isithi: Khangela, umuntu obizo lakhe nguHlumela, uzahluma-ke ephuma endaweni yakhe, akhe ithempeli leNkosi.
13 even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on his throne; and he shall be a cohen on his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
Yena-ke uzakwakha ithempeli leNkosi; yena athwale ubukhosi, ahlale abuse phezu kwesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi. Futhi uzakuba ngumpristi phezu kwesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi; leseluleko sokuthula sizakuba phakathi kwabo bobabili.
14 And the crown shall be to Heldai, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Josiah the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.
Lemiqhele izakuba kuHelemi, lakuThobhiya, lakuJedaya, lakuHeni indodana kaZefaniya, kube yisikhumbuzo ethempelini leNkosi.
15 Those who are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD; and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God."'"
Labakhatshana bazafika bakhe ethempelini leNkosi, beselisazi ukuthi iNkosi yamabandla ingithumile kini. Lokhu kuzakwenzeka, uba lilalela lokulalela ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
