< Zechariah 2 >

1 And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
Oo anna indhahaygii baan kor u qaaday, oo wax baan fiiriyey, oo waxaan arkay nin gacanta ku haysta xadhig qiyaaseed.
2 And I say, 'Whither are thou going?' And he saith unto me, 'To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth, and how much its length.'
Kolkaasaan idhi, War xaggee baad u socotaa? Oo isna wuxuu igu yidhi, Waxaan u socdaa inaan Yeruusaalem soo qiyaaso oo aan soo ogaado intuu ballaadhkeedu yahay, iyo intuu dhererkeedu yahayba.
3 And lo, the messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him,
Oo bal eeg, malaggii ila hadlay ayaa baxay, oo malag kale ayaa u baxay inuu isaga ka hor tago.
4 and he saith unto him, 'Run, speak unto this young man, saying: Unwalled villages inhabit doth Jerusalem, From the abundance of man and beast in her midst.
Oo wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Orod, oo la hadal ninkaas dhallinyarada ah, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Yeruusaalem waxaa loo degi doonaa sidii tuulooyin aan deyr lahayn, sababtuna waa dadka tirobadnaantiisa iyo xoolaha iyada dhex jooga daraaddood.
5 And I — I am to her — an affirmation of Jehovah, A wall of fire round about, And for honour I am in her midst.
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan iyada u noqon doonaa deyr dab ah oo iyada ku wareegsan, oo waxaan iyada u noqon doonaa ammaanta dhexdeeda joogta.
6 Ho, ho, and flee from the land of the north, An affirmation of Jehovah, For, as the four winds of the heavens, I have spread you abroad, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Warroy dalka woqooyi ka carara, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan idiin kala firdhiyey sida afarta dabaylood oo samada.
7 Ho, Zion, be delivered who art dwelling [with] the daughter of Babylon.
Siyoonay, tan dadka Baabuloon la joogtoy, baxso.
8 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: After honour He hath sent me unto the nations who are spoiling you, For he who is coming against you, Is coming against the daughter of His eye.
Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Ammaan dabadeed wuxuu ii soo diray quruumihii adiga ku dhacay, waayo, kii ku taabto wuxuu taabtaa ishiisa inankeeda.
9 For lo, I am waving my hand against them, And they have been a spoil to their servants. And ye have known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me.
Waayo, bal eega, Gacantayda ayaan iyaga ku kor ruxruxi doonaa, oo iyana waxay booli u noqon doonaan kuwii iyaga u adeegi jiray, oo idinna waxaad ogaan doontaan in Rabbiga ciidammadu i soo diray.
10 Singe, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, For lo, I am coming, and have dwelt in thy midst, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Magaalada Siyoonay, gabay oo reyree, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, anigu waan imanayaa oo dhexdaadaan degganaan doonaa.
11 And joined have been many nations unto Jehovah in that day, And they have been to Me for a people, And I have dwelt in thy midst, And thou hast known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me unto thee.
Oo wakhtigaas quruumo badan ayaa Rabbiga isugu darmi doona, oo dadkaygay noqon doonaan, oo dhexdaadaan degganaan doonaa, oo adna waxaad ogaan doontaa in Rabbiga ciidammadii ii soo kaa diray.
12 And Jehovah hath inherited Judah, His portion on the holy ground, And He hath fixed again on Jerusalem.
Oo Rabbiguna dadka dalka Yahuudah wuu dhaxli doonaa iyagoo qaybtiisa ku ah dalka quduuska ah, oo weliba Yeruusaalem buu dooran doonaa.
13 Hush, all flesh, because of Jehovah, For He hath been roused up from His holy habitation!'
Binu-aadmiga oo dhammow, Rabbiga hortiisa ku aamusa, waayo, isagu waa ka soo kacay hoygiisii quduuska ahaa.
