Zechariah 6
1 And once again I lifted mine eyes, and looked, and lo! four chariots, coming forward from between two mountains, —now, the mountains, were mountains of copper.
Mo sì yípadà, mo sì gbé ojú mi sókè, mo sì wò, sì kíyèsi i, kẹ̀kẹ́ mẹ́rin jáde wá láti àárín òkè ńlá méjì, àwọn òkè ńlá náà sì jẹ́ òkè ńlá idẹ.
2 In the first chariot, were red horses, —and, in the second chariot, black horses;
Àwọn ẹṣin pupa wà ní kẹ̀kẹ́ èkínní; àti àwọn ẹṣin dúdú ní kẹ̀kẹ́ èkejì.
3 and, in the third chariot, white horses, —and, in the fourth chariot, horses spotted, deep red.
Àti àwọn ẹṣin funfun ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ̀kẹta; àti àwọn adíkálà àti alágbára ẹṣin ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ̀kẹrin.
4 Then began I, and said, unto the messenger who was speaking with me, —What are these, my lord?
Mo sì dáhùn, mo sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ angẹli tí ń bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Kí ni ìwọ̀nyí, olúwa mi.”
5 And the messenger answered, and said unto me, —These, are the four winds of the heavens, coming forward after each hath presented itself near the Lord of all the earth.
Angẹli náà si dáhùn ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ẹ̀mí mẹ́rin ti ọ̀run, tí wọn ń lọ kúrò lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n ti fi ara wọn hàn níwájú Olúwa gbogbo ayé.
6 They in whose chariot are the black horses, are going forth into the land of the North, and, the white, have gone forth after them, —and, the spotted, have gone forth into the land of the South;
Àwọn ẹṣin dúdú tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ jáde lọ sí ilẹ̀ àríwá; àwọn funfun sì jáde lọ si ìwọ̀-oòrùn; àwọn adíkálà sì jáde lọ sí ìhà ilẹ̀ gúúsù.”
7 and, the deep red, have come forward and sought to go their way, that they might journey to and fro in the land, so he said, Go your way, journey to and fro in the land, —and they journeyed to and fro in the land.
Àwọn alágbára ẹṣin sì jáde lọ, wọ́n sì ń wá ọ̀nà àti lọ kí wọn bá a lè rìn síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ni ayé; ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ lọ, ẹ lọ rìn síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ní ayé!” Wọ́n sì rín síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ní ayé.
8 Then made he outcry beside me, and spake unto me, saying, —See, these who are going forth into the land of the North, have settled my spirit in the land of the North.
Nígbà náà ni ohùn kan sì ké sí mi, ó sì bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ wí pé, “Wò ó, àwọn wọ̀nyí tí ó lọ síhà ilẹ̀ àríwá ti mú ẹ̀mí mi parọ́rọ́ ni ilẹ̀ àríwá.”
9 Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá, wí pé:
10 Take of them of the exile, of Heldai, and of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, —then shalt, thou thyself, enter, on that day, yea thou shalt enter the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah, [with them] who have come in out of Babylon;
“Mú nínú ìgbèkùn, nínú àwọn Heldai, tí Tobiah, àti ti Jedaiah, tí ó ti Babeli dé, kí ìwọ sì wá ní ọjọ́ kan náà, kí o sì wọ ilé Josiah ọmọ Sefaniah lọ.
11 yea thou shalt take silver and gold, and make a crown, —and set [it] upon the head of Jehoshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
Kí o sì mú fàdákà àti wúrà, kí o sì fi ṣe adé púpọ̀, sì gbé wọn ka orí Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà.
12 then shalt thou speak unto him, saying, Thus, speaketh Yahweh of hosts, saying, —Lo! a man! Bud, is his name, and, out of his own place, shall he bud forth, and shall build the temple of Yahweh;
Sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ wí pé, wo ọkùnrin náà ti orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Ẹ̀ka; yóò sì yọ ẹ̀ka láti abẹ́ rẹ̀ wá, yóò si kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa wa.
13 Yea, he, shall build the temple of Yahweh, and, he, shall bear the honour, and shall sit and rule upon his throne, —and shall become a priest upon his throne, and, the counsel of peace, shall be between the two of them.
Òun ni yóò sì kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa òun ni yóò sì wọ̀ ní ògo, yóò sì jókòó, yóò sì jẹ ọba lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀; òun ó sì jẹ́ àlùfáà lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀; ìmọ̀ àlàáfíà yóò sì wá láàrín àwọn méjèèjì.’
14 But, the crown, shall belong to Heldai and to Tobiah and to Jedaiah, and to Hen son of Zephaniah, —for a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.
Adé wọ̀nyí yóò sì wà fún Helemu àti fún Tobiah, àti fún Jedaiah, àti fún Heni ọmọ Sefaniah fún ìrántí ni tẹmpili Olúwa.
15 And, they who are afar off, shall come in and shall build at the temple of Yahweh, so shall yea know that, Yahweh of hosts, hath sent me unto you, —and it shall come to pass if ye will, indeed hearken, unto the voice of Yahweh your God.
Àwọn tí ó jìnnà réré yóò wá láti kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti rán mi sí yín. Yóò sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀ bí ẹ̀yin yóò bá gbà ohùn Olúwa, Ọlọ́run yín gbọ́ nítòótọ́.”
