Zechariah 1
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, the LORD’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
Darius siangpahrang uknae, a kum pahni, thapa yung taroe nah, Iddo e capa Berekhiah capa profet Zekhariah koe BAWIPA ni a dei pouh e lawk teh,
2 “The LORD was very displeased with your fathers.
BAWIPA teh nangmae na mintoenaw koe a lungkhuek poung toe.
3 Therefore tell them, the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Return to me,’ says the LORD of Hosts, ‘and I will return to you,’ says the LORD of Hosts.
Hateiteh, ransahu BAWIPA ni ahnimouh hanlah kâ a poe e teh, Kai koevah bout ban awh leih, Kai hai nangmouh koe ka ban han telah a ti.
4 Don’t you be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: The LORD of Hosts says, ‘Return now from your evil ways and from your evil doings;’ but they didn’t hear nor listen to me, says the LORD.
Ayan e profetnaw ni nangmae kahawihoehe lam, kahawihoehe nuencangnaw atuvah roun awh, telah ransahu BAWIPA ni a dei e pathang nakunghai, na thai awh hoeh, kaie lawk hai na ngai awh hoeh. Na mintoenaw patetlah awm awh hanh, sak awh hanh telah BAWIPA ni a ti.
5 Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
Mintoe naw na maw ao awh. Profetnaw yungyoe a hring a maw.
6 But my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, didn’t they overtake your fathers? “Then they repented and said, ‘Just as the LORD of Hosts determined to do to us, according to our ways and according to our practices, so he has dealt with us.’”
Ka san profetnaw koe lawk ka thui e kaie kâlawknaw teh, nangmae mintoenaw ni hai a kei awh nahoehmaw. Ahnimouh ni mae tawksak e patetlah ransahu BAWIPA ni lawk na ceng han telah a pouk awh e patetlah, lawk na ceng toe telah a dei awh nahoehmaw telah a ti.
7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the LORD’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
Darius siangpahrang a bawinae kum pahni, Adar thapa yung hlaibun nah, Shebat thapa hnin 24 nah, Iddo capa, Berekhiah capa Zekhariah koe ka tho e BAWIPA e lawk teh,
8 “I had a vision in the night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and he stood amongst the myrtle trees that were in a ravine; and behind him there were red, brown, and white horses.
Karum vah ka hmu e vision teh marang paling kâcui e tami buet touh a kamnue teh ayawn kaawm e tuihan hmang um vah a kangdue. Ahnie a hnukkhu lah ka paling e marang, opaou e marang hoi marang pangaw ao.
9 Then I asked, ‘My lord, what are these?’” The angel who talked with me said to me, “I will show you what these are.”
Kai niyah, Oe BAWIPA hotnaw hah apinaw maw telah ka pacei teh, kai hoi kâpan e kalvantami ni hotnaw teh apine tie na patue vai ati teh,
10 The man who stood amongst the myrtle trees answered, “They are the ones the LORD has sent to go back and forth through the earth.”
Tuihan hmang um kangdout e tami ni ahnimanaw teh talai van dawk kâhei hanlah BAWIPA ni a patoun e naw doeh telah a ti.
11 They reported to the LORD’s angel who stood amongst the myrtle trees, and said, “We have walked back and forth through the earth, and behold, all the earth is at rest and in peace.”
Ahnimanaw nihaiyah kaimanaw teh talai van pueng koung katin awh toe. Talai pueng lungmawngcalah ao telah tuihan hmang um ka kangdout e BAWIPA e kalvantami koe atipouh.
12 Then the LORD’s angel replied, “O LORD of Hosts, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which you have had indignation these seventy years?”
Hathnukkhu, BAWIPA e kalvantami ni Oe, ransahu BAWIPA nang ni a kum 70 totouh na lungkhuek sin e Jerusalem kho hoi Judahnaw hah na tueng totouh maw pahren laipalah na o han telah a pacei navah,
13 The LORD answered the angel who talked with me with kind and comforting words.
Kai hoi ka pato roi e kalvantami hanelah BAWIPA ni lawk kahawi, lungpahawinae lawk bout a dei pouh.
14 So the angel who talked with me said to me, “Proclaim, saying, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
Kai hoi ka pato roi e kalvantami nihaiyah ransahu BAWIPA e kâlawk patuen a dei vaiteh a hramkhai hane teh, kai teh Jerusalem hoi Zion mon hanelah puenghoi lungpatawnae ka tawn.
15 I am very angry with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little displeased, but they added to the calamity.”
Lung awpawp kamawng lah kaawm e alouke miphunnaw koe ka lungphuen poung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Jerusalem hah ka lung youn touh ka khuek sin navah, ahnimouh ni a ven awh teh a rektap awh.
16 Therefore the LORD says: “I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy. My house shall be built in it,” says the LORD of Hosts, “and a line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.”’
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, lungmanae lungthin hoi Jerusalem kho vah bout ka tho toe. Hete khopui dawk kamae im ka sak han. Khopui hmuen hai ka bangnue han telah ransahu BAWIPA ni a ti.
17 “Proclaim further, saying, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “My cities will again overflow with prosperity, and the LORD will again comfort Zion, and will again choose Jerusalem.”’”
Hahoi, ransahu BAWIPA ni kâ a poe e bout hramkhai hane teh, kaie khopui teh avoivang lah akaw vaiteh ahawi han. BAWIPA ni hai Zion khocanaw a lung bout a pahawi han. Jerusalem khocanaw teh bout ka rawi vaiteh ka khetyawt han a ti.
18 I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, four horns.
Hathnukkhu, ka khet navah ki pali touh ka hmu.
19 I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” He answered me, “These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
Kai hoi ka pan roi e kalvantami hanelah, hote a kinaw teh bang ti ngainae maw telah ka pacei navah, hote a kinaw teh Judah ram, Isarel ram, Jerusalem khopuinaw pheng kampek sak e ki doeh telah a dei.
20 The LORD showed me four craftsmen.
BAWIPA ni hai lettama pali touh na patue.
21 Then I asked, “What are these coming to do?” He said, “These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations that lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”
Kai ni hetnaw heh bang sak hanelah maw a tho ti ka pacei navah, a kinaw hah apinihai a khet ngam hoeh nahanelah, Judahnaw kampek sak e a kinaw doeh. Hete lettamanaw ni Judah ram kampek sak hanelah ka tuk e a kinaw hah pâlei vaiteh, Jentelnaw e a kinaw hah ka dudam e naw doeh telah a ti.
