Zechariah 1
1 In the month eighth in year two of Darius it came [the] word of Yahweh to Zechariah [the] son of Berekiah [the] son of Iddo the prophet saying.
E dwe mar aboro, e higa mar ariyo mar loch Darius, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ni janabi Zekaria wuod Berekia, ma wuod Ido, kawacho niya,
2 He was angry Yahweh towards ancestors your anger.
“Jehova Nyasaye nosin ahinya gi kwereu.
3 And you will say to them thus he says Yahweh of hosts return to me [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts so I may return to you he says Yahweh of hosts.
Kuom mano wachnegi ni: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Dwoguru ira,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho. ‘Eka an bende anaduog iru,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema owacho kamano.
4 May not you be like ancestors your whom they proclaimed to them the prophets former saying thus he says Yahweh of hosts turn back please from ways your evil (and deeds your *Q(k)*) evil and not they listened and not they paid attention to me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Kik uchal gi kwereu, mane jonabi machon oywak nigi kawacho ni: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho, ‘Lokreuru uwe yoreu maricho kod timbeu maricho.’ To negitamore winja kata dewa, Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
5 Ancestors your where? [are] they and the prophets ¿ to forever do they live.
Bende kwereugo gi jonabi pod ngima nyaka sani?
6 Nevertheless - words my and statutes my which I commanded servants my the prophets ¿ not did they overtake ancestors your and they repented and they said just as he planned Yahweh of hosts to do to us according to ways our and according to deeds our so he has done with us.
To donge wechena gi yorena mane achiko jotichna ma jonabi nojuko kwereu? “Omiyo negilokore kendo giwacho ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osetimonwa gima owinjore gi yorewa kod timbewa, mana kaka nochano timo.’”
7 On day twenty and four of one [plus] ten month it [was] [the] month of Shebat in year two of Darius it came [the] word of Yahweh to Zechariah [the] son of Berekiah [the] son of Iddo the prophet saying.
Tarik piero ariyo gangʼwen mar dwe mar apar gachiel, miluongo ni Shebat, e higa mar ariyo mar loch Darius, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ni janabi Zekaria wuod Berekia, ma wuod Ido.
8 I saw - the night and there! a man [was] riding on a horse red and he [was] standing between the myrtle trees which [were] in the hollow and [were] behind him horses red sorrel and white.
Naneno fweny gotieno ka ngʼat moro moidho faras ma silwal opore e nyima. Ne ochungʼ e dier yiend kuth ochwoga, e holo moro. Yo ka diengʼeye ne nitie farese masilwende, marobuore kod marochere.
9 And I said what? [are] these O lord my and he said to me the angel who was speaking with me I I will show you what? they [are] these.
Napenjo niya, “Magi gin angʼo, yaye ruodha?” Malaika mane wuoyo koda nodwoka niya, “Abiro nyisi gima gin.”
10 And he answered the man who was standing between (the myrtle trees *LB(ah)*) and he said these [are those] whom he has sent Yahweh to go about on the earth.
Eka ngʼat mane ochungʼ e dier yiend kuth ochwoga nonyisa niya, “Gin e joma Jehova Nyasaye oseoro mondo odhi e piny koni gi koni.”
11 And they answered [the] angel of Yahweh who was standing between the myrtle trees and they said we have gone about on the earth and there! all the earth [is] dwelling and [is] undisturbed.
To negidwoko wach ne malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane ochungʼ e dier yiend kuth ochwoga, kagiwacho niya, “Wasewuotho e piny koni gi koni mi wayudo ka piny ngima yweyo kendo nigi kwe.”
12 And he answered [the] angel of Yahweh and he said O Yahweh of hosts until when? you not will you have compassion on Jerusalem and [the] cities of Judah which you have been indignant this seventy year[s].
Eka malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, nyaka karangʼo mibiro lingʼ mak ikecho Jerusalem gi mier mag Juda misebedo kikechogo kuom higni piero abiriyogi?”
13 And he answered Yahweh the angel who was speaking with me words good words comfort.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi malaika mane loso koda gi weche mangʼwon kod weche mag hoch.
14 And he said to me the angel who was speaking with me proclaim saying thus he says Yahweh of hosts I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion jealousy great.
Eka malaika mane wuoyo koda nowachona niya, “Ywagri kiwacho ne ji kama: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho, ‘Nyiego omaka matek nikech Jerusalem gi Sayun,
15 And anger great I [am] angry towards the nations at ease which I I was angry a little and they they have helped for evil.
to bende akecho ahinya gi ogendini modak kodhialore. Mokwongo ne akecho mana matin, to koro gisemiyo chandruok omedo doko malit moloyo.’
16 Therefore thus he says Yahweh I have returned to Jerusalem with compassion house my it will be rebuilt in it [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts (and a measuring-line *Q(K)*) it will be stretched out over Jerusalem.
“Kuom mano, Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Abiro duogo Jerusalem mi akeche, mi oda nochak oger kanyo; kendo tol mipimogo ibiro rie e alwora mar Jerusalem,’ Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema owacho.
17 Again - proclaim saying thus he says Yahweh of hosts again they will overflow cities my from good and he will comfort Yahweh again Zion and he will choose again Jerusalem.
“Med lendo kiwacho kama: Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Miecha duto biro pongʼ gi mwandu, kendo Jehova Nyasaye biro hoyo Sayun kendo obiro chako oyiero Jerusalem!’”
18 And I lifted up eyes my and I saw and there! four horns.
Eka natingʼo wangʼa, mi napo kaneno tunge angʼwen!
19 And I said to the angel who was speaking with me what? [are] these and he said to me these [are] the horns which they scattered Judah Israel and Jerusalem.
Napenjo malaika mane wuoyo koda niya, “Magi gin angʼo?” Nodwoka niya, “Magi e tunge mane okeyo Juda, Israel kod Jerusalem.”
20 And he showed me Yahweh four craftsmen.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nonyisa jotheth angʼwen.
21 And I said what? [are] these coming to do and he said saying these [are] the horns which they scattered Judah according to [the] mouth of a man not he lifted up head his and they have come these [craftsmen] to terrify them to throw down [the] horns of the nations which lifted up a horn against [the] land of Judah to scatter it.
Napenjo niya, “Jogi obiro timo angʼo ka?” Nodwoko niya, “Magi e tunge mane okeyo jo-Juda mondo kik ngʼato angʼata kuomgi tingʼ wiye; to jothethgi osebiro mondo obwog-gi kendo gilo ogendini mane oikore kedo gi piny Juda.”
