< Zechariah 10 >

1 Ask Yahweh to cause rain to fall (in the springtime/before the hot season starts), [because] he is the one who makes the clouds [from which the rain falls]. He causes showers to fall on us, and he causes crops to grow well in the fields.
Hina Godema E da ha: i manu bugi fada: gia: ma: ne oubi amoga gibu ima: ne adole ba: ma! Hina Gode Hifawane da gibu mobi amola sasafugi gibu iaha. Amola amo gibu da dunu huluane fidima: ne, bugili nasu soge nasegaginisisa.
2 [What people think that] the idols in their houses suggest [is only] nonsense, and people who [say that they can] interpret dreams tell [only] lies. When they [tell people things to] comfort [them, what they say] is useless, so the people [who (consult/trust in) them] are like lost sheep; they are attacked because they have no [one to protect them] [like] [MET] a shepherd [protects his sheep].
Osobo bagade dunu da ogogole loboga hamoi ‘gode’ amola ogogole balofede dunu ilima adole ba: sa. Be ilima bu adole iasu da ogogosu amola hamedei sia: Mogili da simasia ba: i ilia bai olelesa, be ogogole olelesa. Amo dogo denesisu hou ilia da iabe da hamedei fawane. Amaiba: le, dunu da sibi fisi defele, udigili lafiadalebe. Ilia da bidi hamosu bagade ba: lala. Bai ilia da ouligisu dunu hame gala.
3 [Yahweh says, ] “I am angry with the leaders [MET] of my people, and I will punish them. [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, take care of my people, the people of Judah, [like a shepherd takes care of his] [MET] flock, and I will cause them to be like [SIM] proud/powerful war horses.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da ga fi amo da Na fi dunu ouligibi, ilima ougi bagade gala. Amaiba: le, Na da ilima se dabe imunu. Yuda fi dunu ili da Na: Amola Na, Hina Gode Bagadedafa, Na fawane da ili ouligimu. Ilia da fedege agoane, Na gasa bagade gegesu hosi agoai ba: mu.
4 From Judah will come rulers [who will be very important], [like] [MET] a cornerstone is [the most important stone for a house], [like] [MET] a tent peg [is very important for a tent], [like] [MET] a bow [is very important for (an archer/a man who shoots arrows]).
Yuda fi amoga ouligisu dunu amola hamoma: ne sia: i olelesu dunu, ilia da heda: le, Na fi ouligimu.
5 They will all be like [SIM] mighty warriors trampling [their enemies] in the mud during a battle. [I, ] Yahweh, will be with them, so they will fight and defeat their enemies who ride on horses.
Yuda fi dunu da ilima ha lai dunu hasalimu. Dadi gagui dunu da ilia ha lai dunuma osa: le heda: le, logo fafuga ososa: gilisibi, amo defele ilia da hasalimu. Hina Gode da ili gilisili gegebeba: le, ilia da gasawane gegemu. Amola ilia hosi da: iya fila heda: i dunu amolawane hasalimu.
6 I will cause the people [MTY] of Judah to become strong, and I will rescue the people [MTY] of Israel. I will bring them back [from the countries to which they were (exiled/forced to go)]; [I will do that] because I pity them. Then they will be as though I had not abandoned them, because I am Yahweh, their God, and I will answer them [when they pray for help].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Yuda fi dunu gasa fufugilisimu. Na da Isala: ili dunu gaga: mu. Na da ilima asigimu, amola ili huluane bu ilia fifi lasua oule misunu. Na da ili fonobahadi fisiagai dagoi. Be ilia da bu masea, ilia da Na ili hamedafa fisiagai agoane ba: mu. Bai Na da ilia Hina Gode, amola Na da ilia sia: ne gadobe amoma dabe adole imunu.
7 The people of Israel will be like [SIM] strong soldiers; they will be as happy as [people who have drunk a lot of] wine. Their children will see [their fathers being very happy], and they [also] will be happy because of what Yahweh [has done for them].
Isala: ili dunu da gasa bagade, dadi gagui dunu agoai ba: mu. Ilia dunu amo da waini hano maiba: le hahawane ba: be agoai ba: ma. Iligaga fifi mabe dunu da amo hasalasisu dawa: mu. Amola Hina Gode Ea hamobeba: le, hahawane ba: mu.
8 I will signal for my people [to return from (being exiled/other countries)], and I will gather them together [in their own country]. I will rescue them, and they will become very numerous like [they were] previously.
Na da Na dunuma wele, ili gagadole gilisimu. Na da ili gaga: mu. Amola ilia idi da musa: bagohame amo defele Na da ilia idi agoai bu hamonesimu.
9 I have caused them to be scattered among many people-groups, but in those distant countries they will think about me again. They and their children will remain alive and return [to Judah].
Na da Na fi dunu ga fifi asi gala amo ganodini afagogolesi dagoi. Be amo soge sedagaga ilia da Na bu dawa: lumu. Ilia amola ilia mano da mae bogole, gilisili ili fifi lasua buhagimu.
10 I will bring them [back] from Egypt and from Assyria; I will bring them [back] from the Gilead and Lebanon [regions], and there will hardly be enough [HYP] space for them all [to live in Judah].
Na da ili Idibidi sogega amola Asilia soge amoga lale, ili bu oule misunu. Amola ilia fifi lasudafa amo ganodini bu fifi lama: ne hamomu. Na da ili Gilia: de amola Lebanone soge amolawane ili fifi lama: ne oule misunu. Dunu ilia da soge huluane nabamu.
11 They will endure/experience many difficulties [as though they were walking] [MET] through a sea, but [I] will calm the waves of the sea; the Nile [River which is usually] deep will dry up. [I] will defeat the proud [soldiers of] Assyria, and [I will cause] Egypt to no longer be powerful [MTY].
Ilia da bidi hamosu amo fedege agoane hano wayabo bagade baligili ahoasea, Na, Hina Gode, da hano amoga gafululi famu. Amasea, Naile Hano lugudu da hafoga: mu. Na da Asilia gasa fi dunu ili asabomu. Amola gasa bagade Idibidi fi dunu amoga ilia gasa fadegale fasimu.
12 I will enable my people to be strong, and they will honor me and obey [IDM] me. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
Na da Na fi dunu gasa fufugilisimu. Ilia da Nama nodone sia: ne gadomu amola Na hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamomu.” Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.
