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.
Memaa mʼani so bio, na mihuu nteaseɛnam anan a efi mmepɔw abien ntam reba, mmepɔw no yɛ kɔbere mfrafrae.
2 In the first chariot were red horses; in the second chariot black horses;
Teaseɛnam a edi kan no, na apɔnkɔ kɔkɔɔ na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ tuntum nso twe nea ɛto so abien no.
3 in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot dappled horses, all of them powerful.
Nea ɛto so abiɛsa no, na apɔnkɔ fitaa na wɔtwe. Nea ɛto so anan no, na apɔnkɔ ntokontrama na wɔtwe, na apɔnkɔ no nyinaa ho yɛ den.
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?"
Mibisaa ɔbɔfo a na ɔne me rekasa no se, “Me wura, eyinom yɛ dɛn?”
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.
Ɔbɔfo no buaa me se, “Eyinom yɛ ahonhom anan a wofi ɔsoro, na wɔrefi wiase nyinaa Awurade no anim akɔ.
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."
Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ tuntum retwe no rekɔ ɔman a ɛwɔ atifi fam no so. Teaseɛnam a apɔnkɔ fitaa retwe no rekɔ atɔe fam; na nea apɔnkɔ ntokontrama twe no rekɔ anafo fam.”
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.
Apɔnkɔ ahoɔdenfo no fii adi no, wɔpɛɛ sɛ wɔkɔ asase nyinaa so. Na ɔbɔfo no kae se, “Monkɔ asase nyinaa so!” Enti wɔkɔɔ asase so mmaa nyinaa.
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."
Afei ɔfrɛɛ me se, “Hwɛ, wɔn a wɔrekɔ atifi fam man so no ama me Honhom ahomegye wɔ atifi fam asase no so.”
9 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Awurade asɛm baa me nkyɛn. Ɔkae se,
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.
“Gye sikakɔkɔɔ ne dwetɛ fi wɔn a wɔatwa wɔn asu, Heldai, Tobia ne Yedaia a wofi Babilonia aba no nkyɛn. Da no ara kɔ Sefania babarima Yosia fi.
11 Take silver and gold, and make a crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
Gye dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ na fa yɛ ahenkyɛw, hyɛ ɔsɔfopanyin Yosua a ɔyɛ Yehosadak babarima no ti.
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;
Ka kyerɛ no se, sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: ‘Ɔbarima a wɔfrɛ no Dubaa no ni, na ɔbɛfefɛw afi hɔ akosi Awurade asɔredan no.
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 priest on his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
Ɔno na obesi Awurade asɔredan no, na wɔbɛhyɛ no anuonyam, na ɔbɛtena nʼahengua so adi ne hene, na ɔbɛyɛ ɔsɔfo wɔ nʼahengua so. Afei asomdwoe bɛba abien no ntam.’
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.
Wɔde ahenkyɛw no bɛma Heldai, Tobia, Yedaia ne Sefania babarima Hen, na wɔde ayɛ nkae ade wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu.
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."'"
Wɔn a wɔwɔ akyirikyiri no bɛba abɛboa Awurade asɔredan no si, na mubehu sɛ Asafo Awurade na wasoma me mo nkyɛn. Sɛ moyɛ osetie ma Awurade mo Nyankopɔn nokware mu a, eyi bɛba mu.”
