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.

‌ʻI hono valu ʻoe māhina, mo hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻa Talaiasi, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sakalaia ko e foha ʻo Pelekia, ko e foha ia ʻo Ito, ko e palōfita, ʻo pehē,

2 He was angry Yahweh towards ancestors your anger.

Kuo mamahi ʻaupito ʻa Sihova ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.

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.

Ko ia ke ke pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; ‘Tafoki mai ʻakimoutolu kiate au, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea te u tafoki atu au kiate kimoutolu: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.

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.

‌ʻOua te mou hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻe kalanga ki ai ʻae kau palōfita ʻi muʻa, ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Tafoki mai ʻanai ni mei homou ngaahi hala kovi, mo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga kovi; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ongoʻi, pe fanongo kiate au, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.

5 Ancestors your where? [are] they and the prophets ¿ to forever do they live.

Ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ko e fē ʻakinautolu? Pea ko e kau palōfita, he ʻoku moʻui ʻakinautolu ke taʻengata?

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.

Ka ko ʻeku ngaahi lea, mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻaia naʻaku tuku ki he kau palōfita, ʻikai naʻa nau hoko ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai? Pea naʻa nau foki mai, mo nau pehē, Hangē ko ia naʻe finangalo ʻa Sihova ke fai kiate kitautolu, ʻo fakatatau ki hotau ngaahi hala, pea mo ʻetau ngaahi faianga, ko ia pe kuo ne fai kiate kitautolu.’”

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.

ʻI hono uofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe māhina, ʻae māhina ko Sipate, ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻo Talaiasi, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sakalaia, ko e foha ʻo Pelekia, ko e foha ʻo Ito, ko e palōfita, ʻo pehē,

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.

Naʻaku mamata ʻi he pō, pea vakai, ko e tangata naʻe heka ki ha hoosi kulokula, pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he teleʻa; pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae fanga hoosi kulokula, naʻe pulepule mo lavatea.

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.

Pea naʻaku pehē ai, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko hai ʻakinautolu na?” Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “Te u fakahā kiate koe ʻa hono ʻuhinga.

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.

Pea naʻe tali mai ʻe he tangata, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko kinautolu ʻena kuo fekau atu ʻe Sihova ke feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi māmani.”

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.

Pea naʻe tali ʻekinautolu ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi māmani, pea vakai, ʻoku nofo lelei pe ʻa māmani kotoa pē, pea ʻoku fiemālie.”

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].

Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehēange, “ʻE Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻo taʻeʻaloʻofa ki Selūsalema, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, ʻaia kuo ke houhau ki ai ʻi he taʻu ni ʻe fitungofulu?”

13 And he answered Yahweh the angel who was speaking with me words good words comfort.

Pea naʻe tali ʻaki ʻe Sihova ki he ʻāngelo naʻe talanoa mo au, ʻae ngaahi lea lelei mo e ngaahi lea fakafiemālie.

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.

Ko ia naʻe pehē ai kiate au ʻe he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa, “Kalanga, ʻa koe ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻoku ou fuaʻa koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema, pea mo Saione ʻi he fuaʻa ʻoku lahi.

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.

Pea ʻoku ou mamahi ʻaupito ki he ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku fakafiemālie: he naʻe kei siʻi pe ʻeku mamahi ka naʻa nau fakatupu pe ʻae mamahi.

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.

Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova; kuo u foki mai mo e ʻaloʻofa ki Selūsalema, ʻe langa hoku fale ʻi ai, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea ʻe falō atu ʻae afo ki Selūsalema.”

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.

Toe kalanga foki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; ʻe toe folofolahi atu ʻa hoku ngaahi kolo, ko e meʻa ʻi he monūʻia; pea ʻe toe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa Saione, pea te ne toe fili ʻa Selūsalema.”

18 And I lifted up eyes my and I saw and there! four horns.

Pea naʻaku toki hanga hake hoku mata, pea u mamata, pea vakai, ko e nifoʻi ʻulu ʻe fā.

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.

Pea ne u fehuʻi ki he ʻāngelo, ʻaia naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “Ko e hā ʻena?” ʻAia naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ko e ngaahi nifo ʻena, ʻaia kuo ne fakahēʻi ʻa Siuta, mo ʻIsileli, pea mo Selūsalema.”

20 And he showed me Yahweh four craftsmen.

Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻae kau tufunga ʻe toko fā.

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.

Pea naʻaku pehē ai ʻeau, “Kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu ke fai ʻae hā?” Pea ne folofola mai, ʻo pehē, “Ko e ngaahi nifo ʻena ʻaia ne ne fakahēʻi ʻa Siuta, pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai faʻa hanga hake ʻe ha tangata ʻa hono mata: ka kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu na ke maumauʻi ʻakinautolu, mo lī atu kituʻa ʻae ngaahi nifo ʻoe kau Senitaile, ʻakinautolu naʻe hiki hake honau nifo ki he fonua ʻo Siuta, ko hono fakahēʻi.”
