Zechariah 4
1 Then the angel who had been talking with me returned, and he called to me as though I had been asleep.
A: igele amo da musa: nama sia: dasu, da nama bu misini, na da golai dianabeyale dawa: le, na didilisi.
2 He asked me, “What do you see?” I replied, “I see a lampstand [made] completely of gold. There is a small bowl [for olive oil] at the top, and there are seven [small] lamps around the bowl, and a place for a wick on each lamp.
E da nama amane adole ba: i, “Dia da adi ba: sala: ?” Na da bu adole i, “Na da gamali bugisu ba: i gouliga hamoi amo ba: be. Gamali bai dabuagado da susuligi salima: ne fagoi gala. Amola gamali bugisu bai amoga da gamali fesuale gala. Amola gamali afae afae da wigi sogebi fesuale gala ba: sa.
3 Furthermore, I see two olive trees, one at the right side of the lampstand and one at the left side.”
Gamali bugisu bai la: idi la: idili da olife ifa lelebe ba: sa.”
4 I asked the angel who was talking with me, “Sir, what are these?”
Amalalu, na da a: igele dunuma adole ba: i, “Hina! Amo liligi ea bai da adi olelesala: ?”
5 He replied, “Surely you know [RHQ] what they are?” I replied, “No, I do not know.”
E da nama amane adole ba: i, “Di da amo hame dawa: bela: ?” Na bu adole i, “Hina! Na da hame dawa: !” (Segalaia 4:10b asili Segalaia 4:14 da idisu dunu ilia bai noga: le dawa: ma: ne goeguda: dedei) b A: igele dunu da nama amane sia: i, “Gamali fesuale da fedege agoane Hina Gode Ea si fesuale, amoga E da osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane ba: lala.” Amalalu, na da ema adole ba: i, “Olife ifa aduna gamali bugisu bai la: idi la: idi lelebe amo elea bai da adila: ? Amola olife amoda aduna amo da gouliga hamoi buni damagelei aduna amoga olife susuligi da amodili bubuga: sa, amo la: idi la: idi lela, amo elea bai da adila: ?” E da nama amane adole ba: i, “Di da amo hame dawa: bela: ?” Nabu adole i, “Hina! Na da hame dawa:” Amalalu, e da nama bu adole i, “Amo liligi aduna da fedege agoane dunu aduna amo Gode (E da osobo bagade huluanedafa amoga Hina Gode esala) E da Ea hawa: hamoma: ne, elama susuligi sogagala: le ilegele lai.”
6 Then he said to me, “This is the message that Yahweh [says that you should give] to Zerubbabel [the governor of Judah: ‘You will do what I want you to do, but it will] not be by your own strength or power. It will be [done] by [the power of] my Spirit, says the Commander of the armies of angels.
A: igele dunu da nama amo Hina Gode Ea sia: ne iasu Selababelema sia: ma: ne sia: i, “Di da dadi gagui wa: i ilia gasaga o dia gasa, amoga hame hasalasimu. Be di da Na A: silibu amoga hasalasimu.
7 Zerubbabel, you [have many difficult matters to handle. They are like] high mountains [MET]. But they will [become easy to handle, as though] they will become flat land. And you will bring [to the temple] the final stone [to complete the rebuilding of the temple]. When you do that, [all the people] will shout repeatedly, “It is beautiful! May God bless it!”’”
Di da ahoasea, dia logo ga: su liligi goumi bagade defele ba: mu. Be Na gasaga amo da alalolesimu. Di da Debolo diasu bu gagumu. Amola, amo dagosea, di da fa: nodafa igi ligisisia, dunu huluane da, ‘Noga: idafa! Noga: idafa!’ nodone sia: mu.”
8 Then Yahweh gave me [another] message.
Hina Gode da eno sia: ne iasu nama i.
9 He said [to me], “Zerubbabel [SYN] laid the first stone in the foundation of the temple, and he will put the last stone in its place. When that happens, the people will know that [it is I, the Commander of the armies of angels, who] have sent you to them.” And he said, “The seven bowls represent the eyes of Yahweh, who looks back and forth at everything [that happens] on the earth.”
E amane sia: i, “Selababele da Debolo bai fa: si dagoi. Amola e da Debolo diasu amo gaguli dagomu. Amo hou ba: sea, Na fi dunu da Na da di ilima asunasi, amo dawa: digimu.
10 No one [RHQ] should think that little things that are done at the beginning of a big project are unimportant. [When the temple is almost finished being rebuilt, ] Zerubbabel will use a (plumb line/string with a stone fastened to it) [to see if the walls they are building are straight]; so when the people see that, they will rejoice.”
Wali, hawa: hamosu da hame hehenaiba: le, ilia da da: i dioi. Be fa: no ilia da Selababele gebewane Debolo diasu gagulalebe ba: sea, ilia da hahawane ba: mu.”
11 Then I asked the angel, “What is [the meaning of] the two olive trees, one on each side of the lampstand?
12 And what [the meaning of] the two olive branches, one alongside each of the gold pipes from which [olive] oil flows to the lamps?”
13 He replied, “Surely [RHQ] you know what they are?” I replied, “No, sir, [I do not know.]”
14 So he said, “They represent the two [men who have been] appointed [MTY] to serve the Lord who [rules] the entire earth.”
