“Onyenwe anyị were oke iwe megide nna unu ha.
3 And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis. Be ye conuertid to me, seith the Lord of oostis, and Y schal be conuertid to you, seith the Lord of oostis.
Nʼihi ya, gwa ha, ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, na-ekwu. ‘Lọghachikwutenụ m,’ otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwupụtara, ‘Mụ onwe m kwa ga-alọghachikwute unu.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, na-ekwu.

7 In the foure and twentithe dai of the enleuenthe monethe Sabath, in the secounde yeer of Darius, the word of the Lord was maad to Sacarie, sone of Barachie, sone of Addo,
Nʼụbọchị nke iri abụọ na anọ, nke ọnwa iri na otu, bụ ọnwa Shebat, nʼafọ abụọ nke ọchịchị eze Daraiọs, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Zekaraya onye amụma, bụ nwa Berekaya, nwa Ido ntị, na-asị:
8 profete, and seide, Y saiy bi niyt, and lo! a man stiynge on a reed hors; and he stood bitwixe places where mirtis wexen, that weren in the depthe, and aftir hym weren horsis reede, dyuerse, and white.
Nʼabalị ahụ, ahụrụ m nʼọhụ, otu nwoke na-agba ịnyịnya na-acha ọbara ọbara. O guzokwa nʼetiti osisi mietul, nke dị nʼebe miri emi nke mgbawa dị nʼala. Nʼazụ ya, ọtụtụ ịnyịnya na-acha ọbara ọbara, ndị na-acha ka ahịhịa kpọrọ nkụ, na ndị na-acha ọcha dịkwa.
9 And Y seide, My lord, who ben these? And an aungel of the Lord seide to me, that spak in me, Y schal schewe to thee what these ben.
Ajụrụ m, “Nna m ukwu, gịnị bụ ihe ndị a?” Mmụọ ozi ahụ nke na-agwa m okwu sịrị m, “Aga m egosi gị ihe ha bụ.”
10 And the man that stood bitwix places where mirtis wexen, answeride, and seide, These it ben, whiche the Lord sente, that thei walke thorouy erthe.
Mgbe ahụ onye ahụ guzo nʼetiti osisi mietul ndị ahụ sịrị, “Ndị a bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị zitere ka ha jegharịa nʼụwa niile.”
11 And thei answeriden to the aungel of the Lord, that stood bitwixe places where mirtis wexen, and seiden, We han walkid thorouy erthe, and lo! al erthe is enhabitid, and restith.
Ha sịrị mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị nke na-eguzo nʼetiti osisi mietul ahụ, “Anyị ejegharịala nʼụwa niile, ma lee anyị chọpụtara na ụwa niile nọ nʼudo, dịkwa jụụ.”
12 And the aungel of the Lord answeride, and seide, Lord of oostis, hou long schalt thou not haue merci on Jerusalem, and citees of Juda, to whiche thou art wrooth? This now is the seuentithe yeer.
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ọ bụ ruo ole mgbe ka ị ga-anọgide hapụ imere Jerusalem na obodo niile nke Juda ebere, bụ obodo ị na-eweso iwe iri afọ asaa ndị a gara aga?”
13 And the Lord answeride to the aungel, that spak in me, goode wordis, and wordis of coumfort.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara mmụọ ozi ahụ guzo na-agwa m okwu, okwu nkasiobi na okwu ọma dị iche iche.
14 And the aungel that spak in me, seide to me, Crie thou, seiynge, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Y louyde Jerusalem and Sion in greet feruour;
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi ahụ nọ na-agwa m okwu gwara m sị, “Kwusaa ozi a, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru sị, ‘Ekworo m dị ukwuu nʼebe Jerusalem na Zayọn nọ,
15 and in greet wraththe Y schal be wroth on riche folkis; for Y was wrooth a litil, forsothe thei helpiden in to yuel.
ma iwe m dị ukwuu megide ndị mba niile ahụ onwe ha juru afọ. Nʼihi na mgbe iwe m dị nta, ha nyere aka ime ka ahụhụ ahụ karịa njọ.’
16 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis, Y schal turne ayen to Jerusalem in mercies. Myn hous schal be bildid in it, seith the Lord of oostis; and a plomet schal be streiyt out on Jerusalem.
“Nʼihi ya, ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Aga m eji obi ebere lọghachi na Jerusalem. Nʼebe ahụ kwa ka a ga-ewugharị ụlọnsọ ukwuu m. A ga-esetikwa eriri e ji atụ ihe nʼelu Jerusalem.’ Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri.
17 Yit crie thou, seiynge, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Yit my citees schulen flete with goodis, and yit the Lord schal coumforte Sion, and yit he schal chese Jerusalem.
“Kwusaakwa ọzọ, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru. ‘Ọganihu ga-adịkwa nʼobodo m niile ọzọ. Onyenwe anyị ga-akasị Zayọn obi ọzọ, ma họpụtakwa Jerusalem.’”
18 And Y reiside myn iyen, and Y saiy, and lo! foure hornes.
Mgbe ahụ, eweliri m anya m abụọ elu hụ mpi anọ.
19 And Y seide to the aungel that spak in me, What ben these? And he seide to me, These ben hornes, that wyndewiden Juda, and Israel, and Jerusalem.
Ajụrụ m mmụọ ozi ahụ na-agwa m okwu sị, “Gịnị ka ihe ndị a bụ?” Ọ sịrị m, “Ndị a bụ mpi ndị ahụ chụsasịrị Juda, na Izrel, na Jerusalem.”
20 And the Lord schewide to me foure smythis.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gosiri m ndị ọkpụ ụzụ anọ.
21 And Y seide, What comen these for to do? Which spak, seiynge, These ben the hornes, that wyndewiden Juda bi alle men, and no man of hem reiside his heed; and these camen for to make hem aferd, that thei caste doun the hornes of hethene men, which reisiden horn on the lond of Juda, for to scatere it.
Asịrị m, “Gịnị ka ndị na-abịa ime?” Ọ zaghachiri m, “Ndị a bụ mpi anọ ndị ahụ chụsasịrị Juda, ime ka onye ọbụla ghara inwe ike iwelite isi ya. Ma ndị a abịala imenye ha ụjọ, na ịtụda mpi mba niile, bụ ndị ahụ buliri mpi ha imegide ala Juda, na ịchụsa ndị ya.”
