Zechariah 10
1 They asked of Jehovah rain in a time of latter rain, Jehovah is making lightnings, And rain [in] showers He doth give to them. To each — the herb in the field.
Mibia Yehowa wòana tsi nadza na mi le tsidzaɣi, elabena Yehowae nana tsi ɖona. Enana tsi dzana na amewo, eye wònana nukuwo miena ɖe bo dzi na ame sia ame.
2 Because the teraphim did speak iniquity, And the diviners have seen a falsehood, And dreams of the vanity they speak, [With] vanity they give comfort, Therefore they have journeyed as a flock, They are afflicted, for there is no shepherd.
Legbawo blea ame, bokɔnɔwo kpɔa ŋutega siwo mele eteƒe o, wokua drɔ̃e siwo nye aʋatso, eye wogblɔa akɔfanya siwo mevaa eme o. Eya ta ameawo le tsaglalã tsam abe alẽ siwo wote ɖe anyi la ene, elabena kplɔla mele wo si o.
3 Against the shepherds did Mine anger burn, And against the he-goats I lay a charge, For inspected hath Jehovah of Hosts His flock, the house of Judah, And set them as His beauteous horse in battle.
“Nye dɔmedzoe bi ɖe alẽkplɔlawo ŋu, eye mahe to na kplɔlawo, elabena Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la akpɔ Yuda ƒe aƒe, eƒe alẽha la ta, eye wòawɔ wo woanɔ abe sɔ si ŋu ŋusẽ le le aʋagbedzi ene.
4 From him [is] a corner-stone, From him a nail, from him a battle-bow, From him goeth forth every exactor together.
Dzogoedzikpe atso Yuda ava, eye tsyoti, dati siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔna le aʋa me kple dziɖula ɖe sia ɖe atso Yuda ava.
5 And they have been as heroes, Treading in mire of out-places in battle, And they have fought, for Jehovah [is] with them, And have put to shame riders of horses.
Wo katã woabɔ asaɖa abe ŋutsu kalẽtɔ siwo le zɔzɔm le bamɔtatawo dzi le aʋagbedzi ene, elabena Yehowa li kpli wo, woawɔ aʋa, aɖu sɔdolawo dzi.
6 And I have made mighty the house of Judah, And the house of Joseph I do save, And I have caused them to dwell, for I have loved them, And they have been as [if] I had not cast them off, For I [am] Jehovah their God, And I answer them.
“Mado ŋusẽ Yuda ƒe aƒe, eye maɖe Yosef ƒe aƒe, magbugbɔ wo agaɖo te, elabena mekpɔ nublanui na wo. Woanɔ abe ɖe nyemegbe nu le wo gbɔ kpɔ o ene, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la, eye matɔ na wo.
7 And Ephraim hath been as a hero, And rejoiced hath their heart as wine, And their sons see, and they have rejoiced, Rejoice doth their heart in Jehovah.
Efraimtɔwo ava nɔ abe ŋutsu kalẽtɔwo ene, eye woƒe dziwo akpɔ dzidzɔ abe wain wono ene. Wo viwo akpɔe, woatso aseye, eye woakpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe Yehowa ŋu.
8 I hist for them, and I gather them, For I have redeemed them, And they have multiplied as they did multiply.
Mana dzesi wo, eye maƒo wo nu ƒu, maɖe wo vavã, eye woagasɔ gbɔ abe tsã ene.
9 And I sow them among peoples, And in far-off places they remember Me, And they have lived with their sons, And they have turned back.
Togbɔ be mekaka wo ɖe amewo dome hã la, woaɖo ŋku dzinye le anyigba didi mawo dzi. Wo kple wo viwo atsi agbe, eye woagatrɔ agbɔ.
10 And I have brought them back from the land of Egypt, And from Asshur I do gather them, And unto the land of Gilead and Lebanon I do bring them in, And there is not found for them [space].
Makplɔ wo agbɔe tso Egipte, eye maƒo wo nu ƒu tso Asiria; makplɔ wo va Gilead kple Lebanon, eye womakpɔ teƒe anɔ gɔ̃ hã o.
11 And He hath passed over through the sea, And hath pressed and smitten billows in the sea, And dried up have been all depths of a flood, And brought down hath been the excellency of Asshur, And the rod of Egypt doth turn aside.
Woato nuxaxa ƒe atsiaƒu me, ke woaɖu ƒu dzeagbowo dzi, eye Nil tɔsisi ƒe gogloƒewo aƒu kplakplakpla. Woaŋe kɔ le Asiria ƒe dada nu, eye woaɖe Egipte ƒe fiatikplɔ ɖa.
12 And I have made them mighty in Jehovah, And in His name they walk up and down, An affirmation of Jehovah!
Mado ŋusẽ wo le Yehowa me, eye eƒe ŋkɔ me woazɔ le.” Yehowae gblɔe.
