< Zechariah 8 >
1 And there is a word of Jehovah of Hosts, saying:
Markaasaa Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammadu ii yimid, isagoo leh,
2 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: I have been zealous for Zion with great zeal, With great heat I have been zealous for her.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon waxaan ugu qiirooday qiiro aad u weyn, oo waxaan iyada ugu qiirooday cadho weyn.
3 Thus said Jehovah: I have turned back unto Zion, And I have dwelt in the midst of Jerusalem, And Jerusalem hath been called 'The city of truth,' And the mountain of Jehovah of Hosts, 'The holy mountain.'
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon baan ku soo noqday, oo waxaan degganaan doonaa Yeruusaalem dhexdeeda, oo Yeruusaalem waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Magaaladii runta, oo buurta Rabbiga ciidammadana waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Buurta quduuska ah.
4 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Again dwell do old men and old women, In broad places of Jerusalem, And each his staff in his hand, Because of abundance of days.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Yeruusaalem jidadkeeda waxaa mar kale degganaan doona odayaal iyo habro, nin kasta isagoo gacanta ku haysta ushiisa cimrigiisa weynaaday daraaddiis.
5 And broad places of the city are full of boys and girls, Playing in its broad places.
Oo magaalada jidadkeedana waxaa ka buuxi doona wiilal iyo gabdho oo jidadka dhexdooda ku cayaaraya.
6 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Surely it is wonderful in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, Also in Mine eyes it is wonderful, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas hadday yaab ku tahay dadkan kuwooda hadhay, ma yaab bay ku ahaanayaan indhahayga?
7 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Lo, I am saving My people from the land of the rising, And from the land of the going in, of the sun,
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, dadkaygaan ka badbaadin doonaa dalka bari iyo dalka galbeed.
8 And I have brought them in, They have dwelt in the midst of Jerusalem, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God, In truth and in righteousness.
Waanan keeni doonaa, oo Yeruusaalem way dhex degganaan doonaan, oo dadkaygii way noqon doonaan oo anna waxaan noqon doonaa Ilaahooda anoo leh daacadnimo iyo xaqnimo.
9 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Let your hands be strong, Ye who are hearing in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets, That in the day the house of Jehovah of Hosts Hath been founded, the temple [is] to be built.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen, kuwiinna wakhtigan erayadan ka maqla afka nebiyada kuwaasoo joogay maalintii aasaaskii guriga Rabbiga ciidammada, kaasoo ah macbudka, loo dhigay si loo dhiso.
10 For, before those days there hath been no hiring of man, Yea, a hiring of beasts there is none; And to him who is going out, And to him who is coming in, There is no peace because of the adversary, And I send all men — each against his neighbour.
Waayo, wakhtigaas ka hor ninna kiro ma lahayn, neefna kiro ma lahayn innaba, oo kii baxay iyo kii galay toona nabadu uma jirin cadowga daraaddiis, waayo, dadka oo dhan nin kasta waxaan ku diray deriskiisa.
11 And now, not as [in] the former days [am] I to the remnant of this people, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.
Laakiinse Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haatan dadkan hadhay sidii waagii hore u ahaan maayo.
12 Because of the sowing of peace, The vine doth give her fruit, And the earth doth give her increase, And the heavens do give their dew, And I have caused the remnant of this people To inherit all these.
Waayo, waxaa jiri doona iniintii nabadda. Geedcanabkuna canabkiisuu dhali doonaa, oo dhulkuna midhihiisuu soo bixin doonaa, oo samooyinkuna sayaxay soo deyn doonaan, oo waxaan ka dhigi doonaa in kuwa dadkan ka hadhay ay waxyaalahan oo dhan dhaxlaan.
13 And it hath come to pass, As ye have been a reviling among nations, O house of Judah, and house of Israel, So I save you, and ye have been a blessing, Do not fear, let your hands be strong.
Dadka dalka Yahuudahow, iyo dadka dalka Israa'iilow, sidaad quruumaha habaar ugu dhex ahaydeen ayaan idiin badbaadin doonaa, oo barako baad ku ahaan doontaan. Ha cabsanina, laakiinse gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen.
14 For, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, As I did purpose to do evil to you, When your fathers made Me wroth, Said Jehovah of Hosts, and I did not repent,
Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Sidii waagii ay awowayaashiin iiga xanaajiyeen oo aan ugu fikiray inaan iyaga wax xun ku sameeyo, oo aanan taas uga soo noqon,
15 So I have turned back, I have purposed, in these days, To do good with Jerusalem, And with the house of Judah — fear not!
sidaas oo kale ayaan haatan ku fikiray inaan wax wanaagsan ku sameeyo Yeruusaalem iyo dadka dalka Yahuudah, haddaba ha cabsanina.
16 These [are] the things that ye do: Speak ye truth each with his neighbour, Truth and peaceful judgment judge in your gates,
Idinku waxaad samaysaan waxyaalahan, ninkiin kastaaba deriskiisa run ha kula hadlo, oo waxaad irdihiinna ku naqdaan garsoorid run ah oo nabad keenta,
17 And each the evil of his neighbour ye do not devise in your heart, And a false oath ye do not love, For all these [are] things that I have hated, An affirmation of Jehovah.'
oo midkiinna yuusan qalbiga xumaan ugu fikirin deriskiisa, oo ha jeclaanina dhaar been ah, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxyaalahan oo dhammu waa waxyaalo aan necbahay.
18 And there is a word of Jehovah of Hosts unto me, saying:
Oo waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammada, isagoo leh,
19 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: The fast of the fourth, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth [months], are to the house of Judah for joy and for rejoicing, and for pleasant appointed seasons, and the truth and the peace they have loved.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Soonkii bisha afraad iyo soonkii bisha shanaad iyo soonkii bisha toddobaad iyo soonkii bisha tobnaadba waxay dadka dalka Yahuudah u noqon doonaan farxad iyo rayrayn iyo iido lagu rayreeyo, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed jeclaada runta iyo nabadda.
20 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Yet come do peoples, and inhabitants of many cities,
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Mar kale waxaa iman doona dadyow iyo kuwo magaalooyin badan deggan.
21 Yea, gone have inhabitants of one To another, saying: We go diligently, To appease the face of Jehovah, To seek Jehovah of Hosts — I go, even I.
Oo magaalo dadka deggan waxay u tegi doonaan dad magaalo kale deggan, oo waxay ku odhan doonaan, Ina keena aynu dhaqsiyo Rabbiga u barinnee, oo aynu Rabbiga ciidammada doondoonnee, oo aniguna waan tegi doonaa.
22 Yea, come in have many peoples, and mighty nations, To seek Jehovah of Hosts in Jerusalem, And to appease the face of Jehovah.
Dadyow badan iyo quruumo xoog badanuba waxay u soo kici doonaan inay Yeruusaalem ka doondoonaan Rabbiga ciidammada, iyo inay Rabbiga baryaan.
23 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: In those days take hold do ten men of all languages of the nations, Yea, they have taken hold on the skirt of a man, a Jew, saying: We go with you, for we heard God [is] with you!
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas toban nin oo ka mid ah quruumaha oo dhammu waxay ku dhegi doonaan mid Yuhuud ah darafka dharkiisa, iyagoo leh, Annagu waannu idin raaci doonnaa, waayo, waxaannu maqalnay in Ilaah idinla jiro.
