Zechariah 2
1 Then I looked up and saw a man with a measuring line/tape.
In sie pac aruruma nga liye mwet se sruok ah in srikasrak soko inpaol.
2 I asked him, “Where are you going?” He replied, “[I am going] to measure Jerusalem, to determine how wide it is and how long it is.”
Nga siyuk, “Kom ac som nu ya?” Ac el fahk, “Nga ac som in srikeya acn Jerusalem, ngan konauk lusa ac sralapa.”
3 Then the angel who had been talking to me started to leave, and another angel walked toward him.
Na nga liye lipufan se ma tuh kaskas nu sik meet ah fahsryak, ac sie pac lipufan tuku in osun nu sel.
4 That other angel said to him, “Run and tell that young man that [some day] there will be very many people and livestock in Jerusalem, with the result that there will be too many to live inside the city walls; many will [live outside] the walls.
Lipufan se meet ah fahk nu sin ma se ngia, “Kasrusr ac fahk nu sin mwet fusr se ma sruok ah in srikasrak soko ingo, lah ac mau arulana pukanten mwet ac oayapa ma orakrak in acn Jerusalem, pwanang ac arulana yokla acn ma enenu in kuhlusyukyak.
5 And Yahweh says that he [himself] will be [like] [MET] a wall of fire around [the city], and he will be there with his glory.”
LEUM GOD El wulema mu El sifacna ac fah sie kalkal e in rauneak siti sac Elan karinganang, ac tuh El fah muta we in wolana lal nukewa.”
6 Yahweh declares [to the people who were exiled to Babylonia], “Run! Flee from Babylonia [MTY], the country east [of Israel], and flee in all directions from the places where I caused you to be scattered!
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Tuyak! Tuyak ac kaingla liki acn eir, tuh nga tuh akfahsryekowoselik nu yen nukewa faclu, oana eng akosr lun kusrao.
7 You people [who previously lived in] Jerusalem and who [now] live in Babylon, flee from there!
Tuyak, kowos su mwet sruoh in acn Babylonia, ac folokla nu Jerusalem.
8 The [armies of the] nations that [attacked you and] took away your valuable possessions have attacked those who are very precious to the Commander of the armies of angels [IDM]. So he says this about me: ‘After I have honored him and sent him to [rebuke] the nations,
Kutena mwet su sringil kowos, el sringil sie ma su arulana saok nu sik.” Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana El supweyume in us kas inge nu sin mutunfacl nukewa su kunauselik mwet lal ac usalik ma lalos:
9 [it is as though] I will strike them with my fist, with the result that those who were their slaves will [now] take back their possessions from those who caused them to become slaves.’ And when that happens, you will know that the Commander of the armies of angels is the one who sent me.”
“LEUM GOD sifacna El ac fah mweun lain kowos, ac ma lowos ac fah utukelik liki kowos sin mwet su tuh mwet kulansap lowos meet.” Ke pacl se ma inge ac sikyak uh, mwet nukewa ac fah etu lah LEUM GOD Kulana pa supweyume.
10 Yahweh says, “[You people of] Jerusalem [APO], shout and be happy, [because] I will be coming [to you] and I will live among you!”
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Jerusalem, kowos on ke engan! Nga ac tuku in muta inmasrlowos!”
11 At that time, [people of] many nations will be united to Yahweh and will become his people. He will live among [all of] you; and you will know that the Commander of the armies of angels [is the one who] sent me to you.
In pacl sac mutunfacl puspis ac fah forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ekla mwet lal. El ac fah muta inmasrlowos, ac kowos fah etu lah El pa supweyume nu yuruwos.
12 [The people of] Judah will be a very special part of his sacred country, and Jerusalem will again be the city that he has chosen.
Na Judah el ac fah sifilpa sie ma na saok sin LEUM GOD in acn mutal sel, ac Jerusalem ac fah siti se su El lungse yohk liki siti nukewa.
13 Everyone, [everywhere, ] should be silent in the presence of Yahweh, because he [again] will come [down] from the sacred place where he lives in heaven [to do great things for us].
Kowos nukewa mislawin ye mutun LEUM GOD, tuh El oatume liki acn mutal sel.
