< Zechariah 12 >

1 The burden of a word of Jehovah on Israel. An affirmation of Jehovah, Stretching out heaven, and founding earth, And forming the spirit of man in his midst.
Kun raajii dubbii Waaqayyo waaʼee Israaʼel dubbatuu dha. Waaqayyo samiiwwan diriirse, inni hundee lafaa buuse, inni nama keessatti hafuura namaa uume sun akkana jedha:
2 Lo, I am making Jerusalem a cup of reeling To all the peoples round about, And also against Judah it is, In the siege against Jerusalem.
“Ani Yerusaalemin namoota naannoo ishee jiraatan hundatti xoofoo gatantarsu nan godha. Yihuudaan akkuma Yerusaalem marfamtee ni qabamti.
3 And it hath come to pass, in that day, I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone to all the peoples, All loading it are completely pressed down, And gathered against it have been all nations of the earth.
Gaafas, yeroo saboonni lafaa hundi isheen mormuudhaan walitti qabamanitti, ani Yerusaalemin saboota hundatti kattaa hin sochoofamne nan godha. Warri ishee sochoosuu yaalan hundi of miidhu.
4 In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do smite every horse with astonishment, And its rider with madness, And on the house of Judah I open My eyes, And every horse of the peoples I smite with blindness.
Gaafas ani fardeen hunda nan naasisa; isa yaabbatus nan maraacha” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani Yihuudaa eeguuf ija koo nan banadha; ija fardeen saboota hundaa garuu nan jaamsa.
5 And leaders of Judah have said in their heart, 'Strength to me [are] the inhabitants of Jerusalem, In Jehovah of Hosts their God.'
Ergasii hangafoonni Yihuudaa garaa isaaniitti, ‘Jiraatonni Yerusaalem sababii Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu Waaqa isaanii taʼeef jajjaboo dha’ jedhu.
6 In that day I make the leaders of Judah As a hearth of fire among trees, And as a torch of fire in a sheaf, And they have consumed — on the right and on the left — all the peoples round about, And Jerusalem hath inhabited again her place in Jerusalem.
“Ani gaafas hangafoota Yihuudaa badaa ibiddaa tuullaa qoraanii keessaa, akkuma guca ibiddaa bissii keessaa nan godha. Isaan saboota naannoo isaanii kanneen mirgaa fi bitaan jiran hunda ni barbadeessu; Yerusaalem garuu utuu hin miidhamin iddoodhuma isheetti hafti.
7 And saved hath Jehovah the tents of Judah first, So that become not great against Judah Doth the beauty of the house of David, And the beauty of the inhabitant of Jerusalem.
“Waaqayyo akka ulfinni mana Daawitii fi jiraattota Yerusaalem ulfina Yihuudaa hin caalleef duraan dursee iddoo jireenya Yihuudaa ni baraara.
8 In that day cover over doth Jehovah the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And the stumbling among them hath been in that day as David, And the house of David as God — As a messenger of Jehovah — before them.
Gaafas Waaqayyo jiraattota Yerusaalemiif ni qolata; guyyaa sana isaan keessaa inni dadhabaan akka Daawit taʼa; manni Daawitis akka Waaqaa, akka ergamaa Waaqayyoo isa isaan dura deemuu ni taʼa.
9 And it hath come to pass, in that day, I seek to destroy all the nations Who are coming in against Jerusalem,
Ani gaafas saboota Yerusaalem lolan hunda balleessuuf nan baʼa.
10 And I have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.
“Ani mana Daawitii fi jiraattota Yerusaalem irratti hafuura surraatii fi kadhannaa nan dhangalaasa. Isaan ana isa waraanan sana ni ilaalu; isaan akkuma nama ilma tokkichaaf booʼuutti ni booʼuuf; akkuma nama ilma hangafaaf baayʼisee gadduuttis ni gadduuf.
11 In that day, great is the mourning of Jerusalem, As the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon,
Gaafas booʼichi Yerusaalem keessaa akkuma booʼicha dirree Megidoonitti Hadaad Rimooniif booʼame sanaa guddaa taʼa.
12 And mourned hath the land — every family apart, The family of the house of David apart, And their women apart; The family of the house of Nathan apart, And their women apart;
Biyyattiin ni boossi; tokkoon tokkoon balbalaas niitota isaanii wajjin ofii isaaniitiif ni booʼu; balballi mana Daawitii fi niitonni isaanii, balballi mana Naataaniitii fi niitonni isaanii,
13 The family of the house of Levi apart, And their women apart; The family of Shimei apart, And their women apart,
balballi mana Lewwii fi niitonni isaanii, balballi Shimeʼiitii fi niitonni isaanii,
14 All the families that are left, Every family apart, and their women apart!
balbalawwan hafan hundii fi niitonni isaanii ni booʼu.
