Zekaria 9
1 Ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩyũkĩrĩire bũrũri wa Hadaraka, na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Dameski: nĩgũkorwo maitho ma andũ, na ma mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli macũthĩrĩirie Jehova,
The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest of it: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD.
2 na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Hamathu o nakuo, itũũra rĩrĩa rĩhakanĩte nakuo, o na ĩgakinyĩrĩra Turo na Sidoni, o na gũtuĩka andũ akuo maarĩ oogĩ mũno.
And Hamath also shall border by it; Tyre, and Zidon, though it be very wise.
3 Andũ a Turo nĩmeyakĩire kĩĩgitĩro kĩrũmu, na makeigĩra hĩba cia betha nyingĩ ta rũkũngũ, na thahabu nyingĩ ta mahuti ma njĩra-inĩ.
And Tyre built herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
4 No rĩrĩ, Mwathani nĩakarĩtunya ũtonga warĩo, na aanange ũhoti warĩo wa iria-inĩ, narĩo itũũra rĩu nĩrĩgacinwo na mwaki.
Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
5 Ashikeloni nĩrĩkeyonera ũhoro ũcio na rĩĩtigĩre, Gaza nĩrĩkehũũrithania nĩ ruo rũnene, o na Ekironi o narĩo, nĩgũkorwo mwĩhoko warĩo nĩũkahooha. Gaza nĩrĩkoorwo nĩ mũthamaki warĩo, narĩo Ashikeloni nĩrĩgathaamwo.
Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
6 Andũ a bũrũri ũngĩ nĩmagatũũra Ashidodi, na niĩ nĩnganiina mwĩtĩĩo wa Afilisti.
And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 Nĩngaruta thakame tũnua-inĩ twao, na irio iria ngaananie ndĩcirute gatagatĩ ka magego mao. Andũ arĩa magaatigara magaatuĩka a Ngai witũ, na matuĩke atongoria a Juda, nao andũ a Ekironi makahaana ta andũ a Jebusi.
And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth, even he, shall be for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
8 Na rĩrĩ, nĩngagitĩra nyũmba yakwa kuuma kũrĩ mbũtũ iria imarehagĩra mbaara. Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ mũhinyanĩrĩria agaacooka gũtooria andũ akwa, nĩgũkorwo rĩu nĩndĩĩoneire ũrĩa maanahinyĩrĩrio.
And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with my eyes.
9 Kena mũno, wee Mwarĩ wa Zayuni! Anĩrĩra, wee Mwarĩ wa Jerusalemu! Atĩrĩrĩ, mũthamaki waku nĩarooka kũrĩ we, nĩ mũthingu na arĩ na ũhonokio, nĩ mũhooreri na akuuĩtwo nĩ ndigiri, agaikarĩra njaũ ya ndigiri.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh to thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon a donkey, and upon a colt the foal of a donkey.
10 Nĩngeheria ngaari cia ita kuuma Efiraimu, na njeherie mbarathi cia mbaara kuuma Jerusalemu, naguo ũta wa mbaara-rĩ, nĩũkoinangwo. Nake aanĩrĩre thayũ ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ. Wathani wake-rĩ, ũgaatambũrũka kuuma iria rĩmwe nginya rĩrĩa rĩngĩ, na kuuma Rũũĩ rwa Farati o nginya ituri cia thĩ.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace to the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
11 No ha ũhoro waku-rĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa thakame ya kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa ndarĩkanĩire nawe, nĩngoohorithia andũ aku arĩa mohetwo, moime irima rĩu rĩtarĩ maaĩ.
As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit in which is no water.
12 Cookai kĩĩhitho-inĩ kĩanyu kĩrĩa kĩrũmu, inyuĩ muohetwo mũrĩ na mwĩhoko; o na rĩu nguuga atĩrĩ, nĩngamũcookeria indo cianyu maita meerĩ.
Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double to thee;
13 Ngaagonya Juda o taarĩ ũta wakwa, nake Efiraimu atuĩke ta mĩguĩ ya ũta ũcio, ndĩmaiyũrie kuo. Nĩngarahũra ariũ aku, wee Zayuni, mokĩrĩre ariũ aku wee Mũyunani, na ngũtue ta rũhiũ rwa njora rwa njamba ĩrĩ hinya.
When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
14 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova nĩakoonwo arĩ igũrũ rĩao; mũguĩ wake ũkaarathũka ta rũheni. Mwathani Jehova nĩakahuha karumbeta; agaathiĩ arĩ ihuhũkanio-inĩ cia mwena wa gũthini,
And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
15 nake Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩakamagitĩra. Nao makaamaniina biũ, na matooranie na kũmahũũra na mahiga ma kĩgũtha. Makaanyua na manegene ta marĩĩtwo nĩ ndibei; makaiyũrĩrĩrio ta mbakũri ĩrĩa ĩhũthagĩrwo kũminjaminjĩria koine cia kĩgongona.
The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue the sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.
16 Jehova Ngai wao nĩakamahonokia mũthenya ũcio, marĩ andũ a rũũru rwake. Nĩmagakengaga bũrũri-inĩ wake, ta mahiga ma goro marĩ thũmbĩ-inĩ ya mũthamaki.
And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
17 Kaĩ nĩmagakorwo marĩ a kwendeka, na mathakarĩte-ĩ! Irio cia mĩgũnda nĩigatũma aanake magaacĩre, nayo ndibei ya mũhihano ĩtũme airĩtu o nao magaacĩre.
For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Grain shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
