< Zechariah 14 >
1 Behold, a day of the LORD comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.
Taonani tsiku la Yehova likubwera pamene zinthu zimene adani ako anakulanda azidzagawana iwe ukuona.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
Ndidzasonkhanitsa anthu a mitundu yonse kuti adzathire nkhondo Yerusalemu; mzindawu udzalandidwa, nyumba zidzaphwasulidwa, ndipo akazi adzagwiriridwa. Theka la anthu a mu mzindamu lidzapita ku ukapolo, koma ena onse otsala mu mzindamu sadzachotsedwa.
3 Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Pamenepo Yehova adzabwera kudzamenyana ndi mitundu ya anthu imeneyi, ngati mmene amachitira pa nthawi ya nkhondo.
4 His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
Tsiku limenelo adzayimirira pa Phiri la Olivi, kummawa kwa Yerusalemu, ndipo Phiri la Olivilo lidzagawikana pawiri kuyambira kummawa mpaka kumadzulo, kupanga chigwa chachikulu, kuchititsa kuti theka la phiri lisunthire kumpoto ndi linalo kummwera.
5 You shall flee by the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel. Yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. The LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
Inu mudzathawa podzera mʼchigwa chapakati pa phirilo, pakuti chidzafika mpaka ku Azeli. Mudzathawa monga munachitira pa tsiku la chivomerezi nthawi ya Uziya mfumu ya Yuda. Kenaka Yehova Mulungu wanga adzabwera, pamodzi ndi oyera ake onse.
6 It will happen in that day that there will not be light, cold, or frost.
Tsiku limenelo sipadzakhala kuwala, kuzizira kapena chisanu.
7 It will be a unique day which is known to the LORD—not day, and not night; but it will come to pass that at evening time there will be light.
Lidzakhala tsiku lapaderadera, silidzakhala usana kapena usiku; tsiku limeneli akulidziwa ndi Yehova yekha. Ikadzafika nthawi ya madzulo, kudzakhala kukuwalabe.
8 It will happen in that day that living waters will go out from Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea. It will be so in summer and in winter.
Tsiku limenelo madzi amoyo adzatuluka mu Yerusalemu, theka lidzapita ku nyanja ya kummawa ndipo theka lina ku nyanja ya kumadzulo, nthawi yachilimwe ndi nthawi yozizira yomwe.
9 The LORD will be King over all the earth. In that day the LORD will be one, and his name one.
Ndipo Yehova adzakhala mfumu pa dziko lonse lapansi. Tsiku limenelo padzakhala Ambuye mmodzi yekha, ndipo dzina lidzakhala limodzi lomwelo.
10 All the land will be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and will dwell in her place, from Benjamin’s gate to the place of the first gate, to the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel to the king’s wine presses.
Dziko lonse, kuyambira ku Geba mpaka ku Rimoni, kummwera kwa Yerusalemu, lidzakhala ngati Araba. Koma Yerusalemu adzakwezedwa ndipo adzakhala pamalo pakepo, kuyambira ku Chipata cha Benjamini mpaka ku malo amene ali ku Chipata Choyamba, ku Chipata Chapangodya, ndipo kuyambira ku Nsanja ya Hananeli mpaka ku malo opsinyira mphesa za mfumu.
11 Men will dwell therein, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.
Mʼmenemo mudzakhala anthu; sadzawonongedwanso. Yerusalemu adzakhala pa mtendere.
12 This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have fought against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.
Mliri umene Yehova adzakanthire nawo mitundu yonse ya anthu imene inkamenyana ndi Yerusalemu ndi uwu: Matupi awo adzawola iwo eni akuyenda, maso awo adzawola ali mʼmalo mwake, ndipo malilime awo adzawola ali mʼkamwa mwawo.
13 It will happen in that day that a great panic from the LORD will be among them; and they will each seize the hand of his neighbor, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor.
Pa tsiku limenelo Yehova adzasokoneza anthu akuluakulu. Munthu aliyense adzagwira dzanja la mnzake, ndi kuyamba kumenyana okhaokha.
14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, silver, and clothing, in great abundance.
Yuda nayenso adzachita nkhondo ku Yerusalemu. Chuma chonse cha anthu a mitundu yozungulira adzachisonkhanitsa pamodzi; golide, siliva ndi zovala zochuluka kwambiri.
15 A plague like this will fall on the horse, on the mule, on the camel, on the donkey, and on all the animals that will be in those camps.
Mliri womwewo udzapha akavalo ndi nyulu, ngamira ndi abulu, pamodzi ndi nyama zonse zokhala ku misasako.
16 It will happen that everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of Armies, and to keep the feast of booths.
Kenaka opulumuka ochokera mwa mitundu yonse ya anthu amene anathira nkhondo Yerusalemu, azidzapita chaka ndi chaka kukapembedza Mfumu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, ndiponso kukachita Chikondwerero cha Misasa.
17 It will be that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn’t go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of Armies, on them there will be no rain.
Ngati mitundu ina ya anthu pa dziko lapansi sidzapita ku Yerusalemu kukapembedza Mfumu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, idzakhala wopanda mvula.
18 If the family of Egypt doesn’t go up and doesn’t come, neither will it rain on them. This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
Ndipo ngati anthu a ku Igupto sadzapita ndi kukakhala nawo kumeneko, adzakhala wopanda mvula. Yehova adzabweretsa pa iwo mliri umene analangira mitundu ina ya anthu imene sinapite ku Chikondwerero cha Misasa.
19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that don’t go up to keep the feast of booths.
Chimenechi chidzakhala chilango cha Igupto ndiponso mitundu ina yonse imene sidzapita ku Chikondwerero cha Misasa.
20 In that day there will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “HOLY TO THE LORD”; and the pots in the LORD’s house will be like the bowls before the altar.
Pa tsiku limenelo pa maberu a akavalo padzalembedwa mawu oti wopatulikira Yehova, ndipo miphika ya mʼNyumba ya Yehova idzakhala yopatulika ngati mbale za ku guwa.
21 Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of Armies; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of Armies.
Mʼphika uliwonse ku Yerusalemu ndi ku Yuda udzakhala wopatulikira Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, ndipo onse amene adzabwera kudzapereka nsembe adzatenga miphika ina ndi kuphikiramo. Ndipo nthawi imeneyo simudzakhalanso Akanaani mʼNyumba ya Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
