Zekaria 14

1 Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke gbɔna esi woama wò nuhahawo na mi.

Beholde, the day of the Lord commeth, and thy spoyle shall be deuided in the middes of thee.

2 Maƒo dukɔwo katã nu ƒu be woava awɔ avu kple Yerusalem, woaxɔ du la, woalɔ aƒewo katã ƒioƒioƒio, eye woalé nyɔnuwo sesẽtɔe adɔ kpli wo. Woakplɔ du la ƒe afã ayi aboyo mee, gake ame mamlɛawo atsi dua me.

For I will gather all nations against Ierusalem to battell, and the citie shall be taken, and the houses spoyled, and the women defiled, and halfe of the citie shall goe into captiuitie, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from ye citie.

3 Ekema Yehowa ado, awɔ aʋa kple dukɔ siawo abe ale si wòwɔa aʋae le aʋagbedzi ene.

Then shall the Lord goe foorth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battell.

4 Gbe ma gbe la, atsi tsitre ɖe Amito si le Yerusalem ƒe ɣedzeƒe la dzi, eye Amito la ama ɖe eve kpla, ɖeka ayi ɣedzeƒe, evelia ayi ɣetoɖoƒe. Bali gã aɖe anɔ wo dome ale be to la ƒe afã ayi anyiehe, eye afã ayi dziehe.

And his feete shall stand in that day vpon the mount of oliues, which is before Ierusalem on the Eastside, and the mount of oliues shall cleaue in the middes thereof: toward the East and toward the West there shalbe a very great valley, and halfe of ye mountaine shall remooue toward the North, and halfe of the mountaine towarde the South.

5 Miasi ato nye to la ƒe balime, elabena akeke va se ɖe keke Azel. Miasi abe ale si miesi le Yuda fia Uzia ƒe ŋkekewo me esime anyigba ʋuʋu la ene. Ekema Yehowa, nye Mawu la ava, eye kɔkɔetɔwo katã anɔ eŋu.

And yee shall flee vnto the valley of the mountaines: for the valley of the mountaines shall reache vnto Azal: yea, yee shall flee like as ye fled from the earthquake in the daies of Vzziah King of Iudah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the Saints with thee.

6 Gbe ma gbe la, akaɖi, vuvɔ alo afu manɔ anyi o.

And in that day shall there bee no cleare light, but darke.

7 Anye ŋkeke tɔxɛ, elabena ŋkeke alo zã manɔ anyi o. Yehowa koe nya ŋkeke sia. Ne zã do la, kekeli ava.

And there shall bee a day (it is knowen to the Lord) neither day nor night, but about the euening time it shall be light.

8 Gbe ma gbe la, agbetsi asi tso Yerusalem, afã asi ayi ɖe ɣedzeƒeƒu la me, eye afã asi ayi ɣetoɖoƒeƒu la me. Anɔ alea le dzomeŋɔli kple vuvɔŋɔli siaa.

And in that day shall there waters of life goe out from Ierusalem, halfe of them towarde the East sea, and halfe of them towarde the vttermost sea, and shall be, both in sommer and winter.

9 Yehowa aɖu fia ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi. Gbe ma gbe la, Yehowa ɖeka koe anɔ anyi, eye eya ko ƒe ŋkɔe anɔ anyi.

And the Lord shall bee King ouer all the earth: in that day shall there bee one Lord, and his Name shalbe one.

10 Anyigba blibo la, tso Geba yi Rimon le Yerusalem ƒe dziehe, anɔ abe Araba ene. Ke woakɔ Yerusalem ɖe dzi, eye wòanɔ eteƒe tso Benyamingbo la nu yi ɖe Agbo Gbãtɔ nu, yi ɖe Dzogoegbo la nu, eye tso Hananel ƒe Gbetakpɔxɔ gbɔ va se ɖe fiawo ƒe wainfiaƒe.

All the lande shall bee turned as a plaine from Geba to Rimmon, towarde the South of Ierusalem, and it shall be lifted vp, and inhabited in her place: from Beniamins gate vnto the place of the first gate, vnto the corner gate, and from the towre of Hananiel, vnto the Kings wine presses.

11 Amewo anɔ eme, eye womagagbãe azɔ o. Dedinɔnɔ anɔ Yerusalem ɖaa.

And men shall dwell in it, and there shall bee no more destruction, but Ierusalem shall bee safely inhabited.

12 Esiae nye dɔvɔ̃ si Yehowa akplɔ aƒu dukɔ siwo katã wɔ avu kple Yerusalem: woƒe ŋutilãwo aƒaƒã le esime wogale afɔ dzi le yiyim. Woƒe ŋkuwo avo ɖe tome na wo, eye woƒe aɖewo aƒaƒã ɖe nu me na wo.

And this shall bee the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite all people, that haue fought against Ierusalem: their flesh shall consume away, though they stand vpon their feete, and their eyes shall consume in their holes, and their tongue shall consume in their mouth.

13 Gbe ma gbe la, Yehowa atsɔ ŋɔdzi aƒo ŋutsuwoe; ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe aku ɖe nɔvia ƒe asi ŋu, eye woawɔ avu kple wo nɔewo.

But in that day a great tumult of the Lord shall be among them, and euery one shall take the hande of his neighbour, and his hande shall rise vp against the hand of his neighbour.

14 Yuda hã awɔ avu le Yerusalem; woaƒo dukɔ siwo katã ƒo xlã wo la ƒe kesinɔnuwo nu ƒu, sika kple klosalo gbogbo aɖe kple nudodowo.

And Iudah shall fight also against Ierusalem, and the arme of all the heathen shall be gathered rounde about, with golde and siluer, and great abundance of apparell.

15 Dɔvɔ̃ sia tɔgbi adze sɔwo, lãɖisɔwo, kposɔwo, tedziwo kple lã siwo katã le woƒe asaɖawo me la dzi.

Yet this shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camell and of the asse and of all the beasts that be in these tents as this plague.

16 Ame siwo katã tsi agbe tso dukɔ siwo wɔ avu kple Yerusalem me la ayi aɖasubɔ Fia si nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ƒe sia ƒe, eye woaɖu Agbadɔmeŋkekenyuiwo.

But it shall come to passe that euery one that is left of all the nations, which came against Ierusalem, shall goe vp from yere to yere to worship the King the Lord of hostes, and to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.

17 Ne ame siwo le anyigba la dzi dometɔ aɖe meyi ɖe Yerusalem ɖasubɔ Fia si nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la o la, tsi madza na wo o.

And who so will not come vp of all the families of the earth vnto Ierusalem to worship the King the Lord of hostes, euen vpon them shall come no raine.

18 Ne Egiptetɔwo meyi ɖakpɔ gome le eme o la, tsi madza na wo o. Yehowa aƒo wo kple dɔvɔ̃ siwo wòtsɔ ƒo dukɔ siwo meyi ɖe Agbadɔmeŋkekenyuiɖuƒe o.

And if the familie of Egypt goe not vp, and come not, it shall not raine vpon them. This shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the heathen, that come not vp to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.

19 Esia anye Egipte kple dukɔ bubu siwo meyi Agbadɔmeŋkekenyuiɖuƒe o la ƒe tohehe.

This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that come not vp to keepe the feast of Tabernacles.

20 Gbe ma gbe la, woaŋlɔ ɖe gavi siwo wode kɔ na sɔwo la dzi be, “Èle kɔkɔe na Yehowa,” eye nuɖaze siwo le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me la anɔ abe agba kɔkɔe siwo le vɔsamlekpui la ƒe ŋkume ene.

In that day shall there be written vpon the bridles of the horses, The holinesse vnto the Lord, and the pottes in the Lords house shall be like the bowles before the altar.

21 Nuɖaze ɖe sia ɖe si le Yerusalem kple Yuda la anɔ kɔkɔe na Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, eye ame siwo katã va vɔsaƒe la atsɔ nuɖaze aɖewo aɖa nu le wo me, eye gbe ma gbe la, Kanaantɔ aɖeke maganɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe gbedoxɔ me o.

Yea, euery potte in Ierusalem and Iudah shall be holy vnto the Lord of hostes, and all they that sacrifice, shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the House of the Lord of hostes.
