< Zechariah 1 >
1 [I am] Zechariah, a prophet, the son of Berekiah and grandson of Iddo. When Darius [had been the emperor of Persia] for almost two years, during November [of that year], Yahweh gave me this message:
Darius padixaⱨning ikkinqi yili sǝkkizinqi ayda, Pǝrwǝrdigarning sɵzi Iddoning nǝwrisi, Bǝrǝkiyaning oƣli Zǝkǝriya pǝyƣǝmbǝrgǝ kelip mundaⱪ deyildi: —
2 “I was very angry with your ancestors.
— «Pǝrwǝrdigar ata-bowiliringlardin intayin ⱪattiⱪ ƣǝzǝplǝndi.
3 So tell this to the people: [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, say, ‘Return to me, and [if you do that], I will [help] you again.
Xunga sǝn ularƣa: «Samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar: — «Mening yenimƣa ⱪaytip kelinglar, Mǝn silǝrning yeninglarƣa ⱪaytip kelimǝn» dǝydu», — degin.
4 Do not be like your ancestors. [Other] prophets, who have now died, [continually] proclaimed to your ancestors that they should stop doing the evil things that they were continually doing. But they refused to pay attention to what I said.
— Ata-bowiliringlardǝk bolmanglar; qünki ilgiriki pǝyƣǝmbǝrlǝr ularƣa: «Samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar: — Rǝzil yolliringlardin, rǝzil ⱪilmixliringlardin yenip towa ⱪilinglar, degǝn», — dǝp jakarliƣan. Biraⱪ ular Manga ⱪulaⱪ salmiƣan, boysunmiƣan, — dǝydu Pǝrwǝrdigar.
5 Your ancestors [have died and are now in their graves] [RHQ]. And the prophets did not [RHQ] live forever, [either].
— Silǝrning ata-bowiliringlar ⱨazir ⱪeni? Pǝyƣǝmbǝrlǝr bolsa, mǝnggü yaxamdu?
6 But I punished [IDM] [the people for disobeying] the commands and the decrees which I commanded my servants the prophets [to tell to the people]. Then they (repented/turned away from their evil behavior) and said, ‘The Commander of the armies of angels has done to us what we deserved for our evil behavior, just like he said that he would do.’”
Lekin Mening pǝyƣǝmbǝrlǝrgǝ buyruƣan sɵzlirim wǝ bǝlgilimilirim, ata-bowiliringlarning bexiƣimu qüxkǝn ǝmǝsmidi?». Xuning bilǝn ular yolidin yenip: — Samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar yollirimiz wǝ ⱪilmixlirimiz boyiqǝ bizni ⱪandaⱪ ⱪilimǝn desǝ, xundaⱪ ⱪildi, — degǝn.
7 [Three months later], on February 15, Yahweh gave [another] message to me.
Darius padixaⱨning ikkinqi yili, on birinqi ay, yǝni «Xebat eyi»ning yigirmǝ tɵtinqi küni, Pǝrwǝrdigarning kalami Iddoning nǝwrisi, Bǝrǝkiyaning oƣli Zǝkǝriya pǝyƣǝmbǝrgǝ kǝldi. U mundaⱪ bexarǝtni kɵrdi: —
8 During the night [I had a vision. In the vision] I saw an [angel] who was on a red horse. He was in a narrow valley among some myrtle trees. Behind him were [angels on] red, brown, and white horses.
Mǝn keqidǝ [alamǝt kɵrünüxlǝrni] kɵrdüm; mana, toruⱪ atⱪa mingǝn bir adǝmni kɵrdüm; u qongⱪur oymanliⱪtiki hadas dǝrǝhliri arisida turatti; uning kǝynidǝ toruⱪ, ala-taƣil wǝ aⱪ atlar bar idi.
9 I asked the angel who had been talking to me, “Sir, who are those [angels on the horses]?” He replied, “I will show you who they are.”
Mǝn uningdin: «Tǝⱪsir, bular nemǝ?» — dǝp soridim. Mǝn bilǝn sɵzlixiwatⱪan pǝrixtǝ manga: «Mǝn sanga bularning nemǝ ikǝnlikini kɵrsitimǝn» — dedi.
10 Then the [angel] who had been under the myrtle trees explained. [He said, ] “They are the [angels] whom Yahweh sent [to (patrol/see what is happening in)] the [entire] world.”
Hadas dǝrǝhliri arisida turƣan zat jawabǝn: «Bular Pǝrwǝrdigarning yǝr yüzini uyan-buyan kezixkǝ ǝwǝtkǝnliri» — dedi.
11 Then those angels reported to the angel who was [there] among the myrtle trees, “We have traveled throughout the world, and we have found out that [the army of the emperor of Persia has conquered nations] throughout the world, [and that] those nations are now (helpless/unable to resist his army).”
Bu atlar hadas dǝrǝhliri arisida turƣan Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisigǝ jawab ⱪilip: «Biz yǝr yüzidǝ uyan-buyan kezip kǝlduⱪ; mana, pütkül yǝr yüzi tiptinq, aramliⱪta turuwatidu» — dedi.
12 Then the angel asked, “Commander of the armies of angels, how long will you continue to not be merciful to Jerusalem and the [other] towns in Judah? You have been angry with them for 70 years!”
Pǝrwǝrdigarning Pǝrixtisi jawabǝn: «I samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar, ⱪaqanƣiqǝ sǝn bu yǝtmix yildin beri aqqiⱪlinip keliwatⱪan Yerusalem wǝ Yǝⱨudaning xǝⱨǝrlirigǝ rǝⱨim ⱪilmaysǝn?» — dedi.
13 [So] Yahweh spoke kindly to the angel who had talked to me, saying things that comforted/encouraged him.
Pǝrwǝrdigar mǝn bilǝn sɵzlixiwatⱪan pǝrixtigǝ yeⱪimliⱪ sɵzlǝr, tǝsǝlli bǝrgüqi sɵzlǝr bilǝn jawab bǝrdi.
14 Then the angel who had been talking with me said to me, “Proclaim this [to the people of Jerusalem]: The Commander of the armies of angels says that he is very concerned about [the people who live on] Zion [Hill] and [in the other parts of] Jerusalem.
Xuning bilǝn mǝn bilǝn sɵzlixiwatⱪan pǝrixtǝ manga mundaⱪ dedi: «Sǝn mundaⱪ jakarliƣin: — Samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar: «Yerusalem wǝ Zionƣa bolƣan otluⱪ muⱨǝbbitimdin yürikim lawildap kɵyidu!
15 But he is very angry with the nations that are [proud and feel] safe. He was only a little bit angry [with the people of Judah], but [he is very angry with the surrounding nations because] they caused [the people of Judah to experience] complete disaster.
Xuning bilǝn Mǝn ǝrkin-azadiliktǝ yaxawatⱪan ǝllǝrgǝ ⱪattiⱪ ƣǝzǝplinimǝn; qünki Mǝn [hǝlⱪimgǝ] sǝlla ƣǝzǝplinip ⱪoyiwidim, ular ⱨǝddidin exip [hǝlⱪimgǝ] zor azar ⱪildi», dǝydu.
16 Therefore, this is what he says: ‘I will again be merciful to [the people of] Jerusalem, and they will rebuild my temple. Men will measure [all the land in] the city [before they start rebuilding the houses].’
Xunga Pǝrwǝrdigar mundaⱪ dǝydu: «Mǝn Yerusalemƣa rǝⱨim-xǝpⱪǝtlǝr bilǝn ⱪaytip kǝldim; Mening ɵyüm uning iqidǝ ⱪurulidu» — dǝydu samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar, — «wǝ Yerusalem üstigǝ «ɵlqǝm tanisi» yǝnǝ tartilidu».
17 The Commander of the armies of angels [also] said this: ‘Tell the people that [the people in] my towns [in Judah] will soon be very prosperous again, and I will encourage [the people of] Jerusalem, and their city will again be my chosen [city].’”
— Yǝnǝ mundaⱪ jakarliƣin: «Samawi ⱪoxunlarning Sǝrdari bolƣan Pǝrwǝrdigar mundaⱪ dǝydu: Mening xǝⱨǝrlirim yǝnǝ awatlixidu, Pǝrwǝrdigar yǝnǝ Zionƣa tǝsǝlli beridu wǝ Yerusalemni yǝnǝ talliwalidu».
18 Then I looked up, and I saw in front of me four [animal] horns.
Andin mǝn beximni kɵtürdüm, mana tɵt münggüzni kɵrdüm.
19 I asked the angel who had been speaking to me, “What are those [horns]?” He replied, “Those horns [represent the armies that] forced [the people of] Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah and Israel to go [to other countries].”
Mǝn bilǝn sɵzlixiwatⱪan pǝrixtidin: «Bular nemǝ?» dǝp soridim. U manga: «Bu Yǝⱨuda, Israil wǝ Yerusalemni tarⱪitiwǝtkǝn münggüzlǝrdur» — dedi.
20 Then Yahweh showed me four (craftsmen/men who make things from metal).
Wǝ Pǝrwǝrdigar manga tɵt ⱨünǝrwǝnni kɵrsǝtti.
21 I asked, “What are those men coming to do?” He replied, “[The armies represented by] those horns caused [the people of] Judah to be scattered, with the result that they suffered greatly. But the craftsmen have come to cause those who attacked [IDM] Judah to be terrified and crushed.”
Mǝn: «Bu [ⱨünǝrwǝnlǝr] nemǝ ix ⱪilƣili kǝldi?» dǝp soridim. U: «Mana bular bolsa Yǝⱨudadikilǝrni ⱨeqkim ⱪǝddini rusliyalmiƣudǝk dǝrijidǝ tarⱪitiwǝtkǝn münggüzlǝr; biraⱪ bu [ⱨünǝrwǝnlǝr münggüzlǝrni] dǝkkǝ-dükkigǝ qüxürgili, yǝni ǝllǝrning Yǝⱨudaning zeminini tarⱪitiwetix üqün kɵtürgǝn münggüzlirini yǝrgǝ taxliwǝtkili kǝldi!» — dedi.
