Zekaria 12
1 Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩkoniĩ Isiraeli. Jehova, ũrĩa watambũrũkirie igũrũ, na akĩhaanda gĩtina gĩa thĩ ĩno, o na akĩũmba roho thĩinĩ wa mũndũ, ekuuga ũũ:
The burden of the word of the Lord upon Israel. The Lord, stretching forth the heavens and founding the earth and forming the spirit of man within him, says:
2 “Nĩngũtua Jerusalemu ta gĩkombe kĩa ndibei gĩa gũtũma arĩa othe magũthiũrũrũkĩirie matũgũũge. Juda o ũndũ ũmwe na Jerusalemu nĩgũkarigiicĩrio nĩ thũ.
Behold, I will set Jerusalem as a lintel of the effects of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, yet even Judah will be in the blockade against Jerusalem.
3 Mũthenya ũcio, rĩrĩa ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia thĩ igaacookanĩrĩra irĩũkĩrĩre, nĩngatua Jerusalemu ihiga rĩtangĩenyenyeka kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe. Arĩa othe makaageria kũrĩenyenyia nĩmakeguraria mũno.
And this shall be: In that day, I will set Jerusalem as a burdensome stone to every people. All who will lift it up will be torn to pieces. And all the kingdoms of the earth will be gathered together against her.
4 Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩngamakia mbarathi o yothe ĩhahũke, nake mũmĩhaici ndũme agũrũke,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Nĩngarangĩra nyũmba ya Juda, no mbarathi ciothe cia ndũrĩrĩ ndĩcitue ndumumu.
In that day, says the Lord, I will strike every horse with stupor and his rider with madness. And I will open my eyes upon the house of Judah, and I will strike every horse of the people with blindness.
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo atongoria a Juda makeĩĩra na ngoro atĩrĩ, ‘Andũ a Jerusalemu nĩmagĩte na hinya nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, o we Ngai wao.’
And the governors of Judah will say in their heart, “Let the inhabitants of Jerusalem be strengthened for me, in the Lord of hosts, their God.”
6 “Mũthenya ũcio nĩngatũma atongoria a Juda mahaane ta nyũngũ ĩiyũrĩte mwaki ĩrĩ riiko, na ndũme mahaane ta gĩcinga gĩgwakana kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wa itĩĩa cia ngano. Makaaniina andũ arĩa othe marĩthiũrũrũkĩirie mwena wa ũrĩo na mwena wa ũmotho, no rĩrĩ, andũ a Jerusalemu matigaakorwo na ũgwati o na hanini marĩ kũu Jerusalemu.
In that day, I will set the governors of Judah like a flaming furnace among wood, and like a flaming torch among hay. And they will devour, to the right and to the left, all the surrounding peoples. And Jerusalem will be inhabited again, in her own place, in Jerusalem.
7 “Jehova akaamba kũhonokia andũ arĩa matũũraga Juda, nĩgeetha gĩtĩĩo kĩa nyũmba ya Daudi na kĩa aikari a Jerusalemu gĩtikananenehe gũkĩra kĩa andũ a Juda.
And the Lord will save the tabernacles of Judah, just as in the beginning, so that the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not glorify themselves boastfully against Judah.
8 Mũthenya ũcio Jehova nĩakagitĩra andũ arĩa matũũraga Jerusalemu, nĩgeetha arĩa maagĩte hinya mũno gatagatĩ-inĩ kao makahaana ta Daudi, nayo nyũmba ya Daudi ĩkahaana o ta Ngai, ĩhaane ta mũraika wa Jehova amatongoretie.
In that day, the Lord will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and even he who will have offended from them, in that day, will be like David, and the house of David will be like that of God, just like an angel of the Lord in their sight.
9 Mũthenya ũcio nĩngoimagara nganiine ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria igookĩrĩra itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu.
And this shall be in that day: I will seek to crush all the Gentiles that come against Jerusalem.
10 “Na nĩngaitĩrĩria nyũmba ya Daudi na arĩa othe matũũraga itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu roho wa gũtugana na wagũthaithana. Nao nĩmakerorera ũrĩa maathecire, na nĩmakamũrĩrĩra marĩ na ruo o ta ũrĩa mũndũ arĩragĩra mwana wa mũmwe, na magĩe na kĩeha kĩnene o ta ũrĩa mũndũ ethikagĩra akuĩrĩirwo nĩ mwana wake wa irigithathi.
And I will pour out upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of prayers. And they will look upon me, whom they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only son, and they will feel sorrow over him, as one would be sorrowful at the death of a firstborn.
11 Mũthenya ũcio nĩgũgakorwo kĩrĩro kĩnene kũu Jerusalemu, o ta kĩrĩro kĩrĩa kĩarĩ Hadadi-Rimoni o kũu werũ-inĩ wa Megido.
In that day, there will be a great lamentation in Jerusalem, like the lamentation of Hadadrimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 Bũrũri ũcio nĩũkagĩa na kĩrĩro, o mbarĩ o mbarĩ ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki, na atumia ao marĩ oiki: mbarĩ ya nyũmba ya Daudi ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki na atumia ao marĩ oiki, mbarĩ ya nyũmba ya Nathani ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki, na atumia ao marĩ oiki,
And the earth will mourn: families and families separately; the families of the house of David separately, and their women separately;
13 na mbarĩ ya nyũmba ya Lawi ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki, na atumia ao marĩ oiki, mbarĩ ya Shimei ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki, na atumia ao marĩ oiki,
the families of the house of Nathan separately, and their women separately; the families of the house of Levi separately, and their women separately; the families of Shimei separately, and their women separately;
14 na mbarĩ icio ingĩ ciothe itigaire o mbarĩ o mbarĩ ĩrĩre ĩrĩ iiki, na atumia ao marĩ oiki.
all the rest of the families, families and families separately, and their women separately.
