< Zechariah 1 >
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Yahweh unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying: —
Iti maikawalo a bulan iti maikadua a tawen a panagturay ni Dario, immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni profeta Zacarias a putot ni Barakias a putot ni Iddo a kunana,
2 Yahweh, was sore displeased, with your fathers:
“Nakapungtot unay ni Yahweh kadagiti ammayo!
3 therefore shalt thou say unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Return ye unto me, urgeth Yahweh of hosts, —that I may return unto you, saith Yahweh of hosts.
Ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Agsublikayo kaniak!”—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin!“—”ket agsubliak kadakayo!” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
4 Do not become like your fathers, unto whom the former prophets, proclaimed, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Return, I pray you, from your wicked ways, and from your wicked practices; but they heard not, nor hearkened unto me, declareth Yahweh.
Saanyo koma a tuladen dagiti ammayo nga imun-una a binagaan dagiti profeta, a kunada, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: isardengyon dagiti dakes a wagasyo ken dagiti nadangkes nga aramidyo!” Ngem saanda a dimngeg ken saandak nga impangag.”' Daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
5 Your fathers, where are they? and, the prophets, to times age-abiding, do they live?
“Saan kadi nga awanen dagiti ammayo? Ken agtalinaed kadi dagiti profeta iti agnanayon?
6 Howbeit, as for my words and my statutes with which I charged my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? and so they returned and said, Just as Yahweh of hosts planned to do unto us, according to our ways and according to our practices, So hath he dealt with us?
Ngem saan kadi a sinagaba dagiti ammayo ti subad iti panagsukirda kadagiti sasaok ken paglintegak nga imbilinko kadagiti adipenko a profeta? Nagbabawida ngarud ket kinunada, 'Kas iti pinanggep ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin nga aramiden kadatayo gapu kadagiti wagas ken tigtignaytayo, isu ti inaramidna kadatayo.'”
7 Upon the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the same, is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Yahweh unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, as followeth:
Iti maikadua a tawen a panagturay ni Dario, iti maika-dua pulo ket uppat nga aldaw iti maikasangapulo ket maysa a bulan, a bulan ti Sebat, immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni profeta Zacarias a putot ni Barakias a putot ni Iddo a kunana
8 I looked by night, And lo! a man riding upon a red horse, and he was standing among the myrtle trees, in the shade; and, after him, were horses, red, bay, and white.
“Iti rabii, adtoy, nakitak ti maysa a lalaki a nakasakay iti nalabaga a kabalio, ket adda isuna kadagiti babassit a kayo nga addaan kadagiti napipintas a sabsabong nga adda iti tanap; ket adda iti likudanna dagiti nalabaga, alazan ken puraw a kabalio.”
9 Then said I, What are these, my lord? And the messenger who was speaking with me, said unto me, I, will shew thee what these, are.
Kinunak “Apo, ania dagitoy a banbanag?” Ket kinuna ti anghel a nakisarita kaniak, “Ipakitakto kenka no ania dagitoy a banbanag.”
10 So the man who was standing among the myrtle-trees responded, and said, —These, are they whom Yahweh, hath sent, to go to and fro through the earth.
Ket simmungbat ti lalaki a nakatakder iti ayan dagiti babassit a kayo nga addaan kadagiti napipintas a sabsabong a kunana, “Dagitoy dagiti imbaon ni Yahweh nga agsursor iti entero a daga.”
11 Then responded they to the messenger of Yahweh, who was standing among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have gone to and fro through the earth, —and lo! all the earth, resteth and is quiet.
Simmungbatda iti anghel ni Yahweh a nakatakder iti ayan dagiti babassit a kayo nga addaan kadagiti napipintas a sabsabong; kinunada kenkuana, “Sursursorenmin ti entero a daga; kitaem, agal-aliwaksay dagiti amin a daga.”
12 Then the messenger of Yahweh responded, and said, O Yahweh of hosts! How long wilt, thou, not have compassion upon Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, —against which thou hast had indignation these seventy years?
Ket simmungbat ti anghel ni Yahweh a kunana, “O Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, kasano kadi pay kabayag ti panangipakitam iti saanmo a panangngaasi iti Jerusalem ken kadagiti siudad ti Juda a nagsagaba iti pungtotmo iti pitopulo a tawen?”
13 And Yahweh answered the messenger who was speaking with me, in words that were pleasant, —words that were consoling,
Simmungbat ni Yahweh iti anghel a nakisararita kaniak babaen kadagiti nasasayaat a sasao, dagiti sasao a pangliwliwa.
14 Then the messenger who was speaking with me, said unto me, Proclaim thou, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, I am jealous for Jerusalem, and for Zion, with a great jealousy;
Ket kinuna kaniak ti anghel a nakisarita kaniak, “Ipakaammom daytoy, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Kasta unay ti pakaseknak iti Jerusalem ken iti Sion!
15 And, with a great displeasure, am I displeased with the careless nations, —in that, when, I, was displeased (for) a little, then, they, helped forward the calamity,
Ket napalalo ti pungtotko kadagiti nasion a nanam-ay; ta saanak unay a nakaunget iti Juda, ngem kinarkaro dagitoy a nasion ti panagsagaba ti Juda.”
16 Wherefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, I have returned to Jerusalem, with compassions, My house, shall be built therein, declareth Yahweh of hosts, and, a line, shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Nagsubliak iti Jerusalem nga addaan iti asi. Maipatakderto ti balayko iti daytoy”'—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin—”ket maibinnatto ti tali a pagrukod iti entero a Jerusalem!”
17 Further, proclaim thou, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Yet, shall my cities overflow with blessing! So will Yahweh yet, have compassion, upon Zion, and yet make choice of Jerusalem.
Ipakaammom pay daytoy, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin- amin: 'Rumang-ayto manen dagiti siudadko, ket liwliwaento manen ni Yahweh ti Sion, ken piliennanto manen ti Jerusalem.”
18 Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, —and lo! Four Horns.
Kalpasanna, timmangadak ket nakakitaak iti uppat a sara!
19 And I said unto the messenger who was speaking with me, What are these? And he said unto me, These, are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
Kinasaritak ti anghel a nakisarita kaniak, “Ania dagitoy?” Insungbatna kaniak, “Dagitoy dagiti sara a nangiwarawara iti Juda, Israel, ken Jerusalem.”
20 Then Yahweh shewed me Four Craftsmen.
Ket nangipakita kaniak ni Yahweh iti uppat a mammanday.
21 And I said, What are these coming in to do? And he spake, saying, These, are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head, but these [others] have come in to put them in fear, to cast down the horns of the nations, the which have lifted up the horn against the land of Judah to scatter her.
Kinunak, “Ania ti umay aramiden dagitoy a tattao?” Insungbatna, “Dagitoy dagiti sara a nangiwarawara iti Juda, isu a nagsagabada iti nakaro. Ngem immay dagitoy a tattao tapno pagtalawen dagiti nasion, tapno parmekenda dagiti armada dagiti nasion a nangraut iti daga ti Juda tapno iwarawarada daytoy.”
