Zechariah 8
1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh of hosts saying.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a te bay Zakari mesaj sa a:
2 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts I am jealous for Zion jealousy great and rage great I am jealous for it.
-Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di: Mwen sitèlman renmen moun mòn Siyon yo, mwen fè jalouzi anpil pou yo. Mwen fè kòlè sou lènmi yo.
3 Thus he says Yahweh I have returned to Zion and I will dwell in [the] midst of Jerusalem and it will be called Jerusalem [the] city of faithfulness and [the] mountain of Yahweh of hosts [the] mountain of holiness.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: M'ap tounen sou mòn Siyon an. Mwen pral rete nan mitan lavil Jerizalèm. Y'a rele Jerizalèm Lavil kote moun kenbe pye Bondye yo fèm. Y'a rele mòn Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a Mòn ki apa pou Seyè a.
4 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts again they will sit old [men] and old [women] in [the] open places of Jerusalem and each staff his [will be] in hand his from abundance of days.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: N'a wè vye granmoun, fanm kou gason, vin chita sou plas piblik nan lavil Jerizalèm. Yo chak va gen yon baton nan men yo pou yo ka mache tèlman y'ap vye granmoun.
5 And [the] open places of the city they will be filled boys and girls playing in open places its.
Lari yo va plen ti gason ak ti fi k'ap jwe konsa toupatou.
6 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts if it will be difficult in [the] eyes of [the] remnant of the people this in the days those also in view my will it be difficult? [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: Pou ti ponyen moun ki rete koulye a nan peyi a, sa se yon bagay yo di ki pa ka rive. Men, pa pou mwen. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa.
7 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to save people my from [the] land of [the] east and from [the] land of [the] setting of the sun.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò. Se mwen menm k'ap delivre pèp mwen an, k'ap fè yo soti nan peyi ki sou bò solèy leve a ak nan peyi ki sou bò solèy kouche a.
8 And I will bring them and they will dwell in [the] midst of Jerusalem and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God in faithfulness and in righteousness.
M'ap mennen yo tounen pou yo ka rete lavil Jerizalèm ankò. Y'a pou mwen yon pèp ki rele m' pa m'. Mwen menm m'a Bondye yo. M'a kenbe kontra mwen te pase ak yo a. Yo menm, y'a fè sa m'a mande yo fè.
9 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts let them be strong hands your O those [who] hear in the days these the words these from [the] mouth of the prophets who on [the] day [when] it was founded [the] house of Yahweh of hosts the temple to be rebuilt.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pale, li di konsa: -Pran kouraj, nou menm k'ap tande koulye a nan bouch pwofèt yo menm mesaj Bondye te bay lè yo t'ap mete men nan fondasyon tanp Seyè a pou rebati kay ki apa pou li a.
10 For before the days those [the] wage[s] of person not it happened and [the] wage[s] of the animal[s] [was] not it and [belonged] to the [one who] went out and to the [one who] came not peace from the opponent so I may send every person each on neighbor his.
Paske, anvan jou sa yo, pa t' gen travay ni pou moun ni pou bèt. Pesonn pa t' ka ale vini ak kè poze nan peyi a poutèt lènmi yo. Mwen te fè moun leve yonn kont lòt.
11 And now not like the days former I [will be] to [the] remnant of the people this [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.
Men koulye a, mwen pral aji yon lòt jan ak ti rès moun ki vivan toujou nan peyi a. Se Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a ki di sa.
12 That [the] seed of peace the vine it will give fruit its and the land it will give produce its and the heavens they will give dew their and I will give as an inheritance [the] remnant of the people this all these [things].
Y'a plante jaden yo ak kè poze. Pye rezen yo va donnen, tè a va bay rekòt. Lapli va tonbe sot nan syèl la. M'a bay ti rès moun ki vivan toujou nan pèp la tout benediksyon sa yo.
13 And it will be just as you were a curse among the nations O house of Judah and [the] house of Israel so I will save you and you will be a blessing may not you be afraid let them be strong hands your.
Nou menm moun Jida ak moun Izrayèl, menm jan yon lè mwen te fè nou tounen yon madichon nan mitan lòt nasyon yo, konsa tou m'a delivre nou, m'a fè nou tounen benediksyon nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Nou pa bezwen pè. Pran kouraj!
14 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts just as I planned to do harm to you when provoked to anger ancestors your me he says Yahweh of hosts and not I relented.
Men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: -Lè zansèt nou yo te fè m' fache sou yo, mwen te pran desizyon pou m' te pini yo. Mwen pa t' chanje lide.
15 So I have returned I have planned in the days these to do good to Jerusalem and [the] house of Judah may not you be afraid.
Konsa tou, koulye a mwen pran desizyon pou m' beni moun lavil Jerizalèm ak moun fanmi Jida yo. Nou pa bezwen pè anyen.
16 These [are] the things which you will do speak truth each with neighbor his faithfulness and justice of peace judge in gates your.
Men sa pou nou fè: Lè n'ap pale yonn ak lòt, pa bay manti. Nan tribinal, se pou nou rann jistis san patipri pou tout moun ka viv byen yonn ak lòt.
17 And each - [the] harm of neighbor his may not you plan in heart your and an oath of falsehood may not you love for all these [are things] which I hate [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Pa fè plan pou nou aji mal yonn ak lòt. Pa fè sèman, lèfini pou n'ap bay manti pou akize moun. Paske, tou sa se bagay mwen pa vle wè. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa!
18 And it came [the] word of Yahweh of hosts to me saying.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pale ak Zakari ankò, li di l' konsa:
19 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] fast of the fourth [month] and [the] fast of the fifth [month] and [the] fast of the seventh [month] and [the] fast of the tenth [month] it will become for [the] house of Judah joy and gladness and appointed feasts good and truth and peace love.
-Jèn yo konn fè chak katriyèm mwa, chak senkyèm mwa, chak setyèm mwa ak chak dizyèm mwa a pral yon plezi, yon kè kontan pou moun Jida yo, yon okazyon pou yo fè fèt. Se pou nou renmen viv byen yonn ak lòt san bay manti.
20 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts yet this: they will come peoples and [the] inhabitants of cities many.
Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: -Yon lè gen pou rive moun va soti nan gwo lavil lòt peyi yo pou yo vini lavil Jerizalèm.
21 And they will go [the] inhabitants of one [city] to one [city] saying let us go steadfastly to entreat [the] face of Yahweh and to seek Yahweh of hosts I will go also I.
Moun va soti nan yon lavil, y'a ale nan yon lòt, y'a di moun ki la yo: Ann al adore Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a! Ann al lapriyè nan pye Seyè a pou mande l' benediksyon. Ann ale non!
22 And they will come peoples many and nations mighty to seek Yahweh of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat [the] face of Yahweh.
Anpil moun ap soti nan gran peyi, y'ap vini lavil Jerizalèm pou yo adore Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a. Y'ap vin lapriyè nan pye l' pou mande l' benediksyon.
23 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts in the days those that they will take hold ten people from all [the] tongues of the nations and they will take hold on [the] skirt of a person Jewish saying we want to go with you for we have heard God [is] with you.
Wi, men sa Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a di ankò: Lè sa a, dis moun ap soti nan lòt peyi kote yo pale lòt lang, y'a kenbe yon jwif nan rad, y'a di l': Nou vle ale avè ou, paske nou tande se avèk jwif yo Bondye ye.
