Zakariya 6
1 Na sāke ɗaga kai sama, sai ga kekunan yaƙi guda huɗu a gabana suna fitowa tsakanin duwatsu guda biyu, duwatsun tagulla!
I looked up again, and [in the vision] I saw four chariots coming toward me. [They were coming] between two mountains [that were made] of bronze.
2 Karusa ta farko tana da jajjayen dawakai, ta biyu kuma baƙaƙen dawakai,
The first chariot [was pulled by] red horses, the second chariot [was pulled by] black horses,
3 ta ukun farare dawakai, ta huɗu kuma dawakai masu ɗigo-ɗigo a dukan jikinsu, dukansu kuwa ƙarfafa.
the third chariot [was pulled by] white horses, and the fourth chariot [was pulled by] spotted gray horses. They were all very strong horses.
4 Sai na tambayi mala’ikan da yake magana da ni na ce, “Mene ne waɗannan, ranka yă daɗe?”
I asked the angel who had been speaking to me, “Sir, what do those chariots mean?”
5 Mala’ikan ya amsa mini ya ce, “Waɗannan su ne ruhohi huɗu na sama, waɗanda suka fito daga wurin Ubangiji na dukan duniya.
The angel replied, “They have come from standing in the presence of the Lord who controls/rules the entire earth. They will go across the sky in four directions.
6 Wannan mai baƙaƙen dawakai zai nufi wajen ƙasar arewa, mai fararen dawakai zai nufi wajen yamma, sai kuma mai dawakai masu ɗigo-ɗigo a jiki zai nufi wajen kudu.”
The chariot [pulled by] black horses will go north, the [one pulled by] white horses will go west, the one [pulled by] spotted gray horses will go south.”
7 Da ƙarfafa dawakan suka fito, sai suka yi marmari su ratsa dukan duniya. Sai ya ce, “Ku ratsa dukan duniya!” Saboda haka suka ratsa dukan duniya.
When those powerful horses left, their [chariot-drivers] were eager to go throughout the world. [As they were leaving, ] the angel said to them, “Go throughout the world [and see what is happening]!” So that is what they did.
8 Sai ya kira ni ya ce, “Duba, waɗanda suka nufi wajen ƙasar arewa sun ba wa Ruhuna hutu a ƙasar arewa.”
Then the angel called to me [and said], “Look/Listen, the [drivers of the] chariots that have gone north will do what the Spirit [of Yahweh wants them to do] there.”
9 Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini, ta ce,
Then Yahweh gave me [another] message.
10 “Ka karɓi azurfa da zinariya daga masu zaman bauta Heldai, Tobiya, Yedahiya, waɗanda suka iso daga Babilon. A ranar kuma ka je gidan Yosiya ɗan Zefaniya.
He said, “Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah will be bringing some silver and gold from the people who were (exiled in/forced to go to) Babylon. As soon as they arrive, go to the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.
11 Ka ɗauki azurfar da zinariyar ka yi rawani, ka ɗora shi a kan babban firist, Yoshuwa ɗan Yehozadak.
Take [some of that] silver and gold from them and make a crown. Then put it on the head of Jehozadak’s son Joshua, the Supreme Priest.
12 Ka ce masa ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, ‘Ga mutumin da sunansa ne Reshe, zai kuma ratse daga inda yake yă gina haikalin Ubangiji.
Tell him that [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say that the man who is called the Branch will come. He will leave the place where he is now, and he will [supervise those who] build my temple.
13 Shi ne zai gina haikalin Ubangiji, za a kuma martaba shi da daraja, zai kuma zauna yă yi mulki a kan kursiyinsa. Zai zama firist a kan kursiyinsa. Kuma a tsakanin biyun za a sami zaman lafiya.’
He is the one who [will tell those who] will build my temple [what to do]. He will wear royal clothing and he will sit on his throne and rule. There will also be a priest [sitting] next to his throne, and the two of them will work together harmoniously.
14 Za a ba Heldai, Tobiya, Yedahiya da kuma Hen ɗan Zefaniya kamar abin tunawa a cikin haikalin Ubangiji.
The crown must be [kept] in my temple to remind people of what Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Josiah [did for them].
15 Waɗanda suke nesa za su zo su taimaka gina haikalin Ubangiji, za ku kuma san cewa Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne ya aiko ni gare ku. Wannan zai faru in kuka yi biyayya sosai ga Ubangiji Allahnku.”
People who are [living] far away will come and [help to] build my temple. When that happens, the people will know that [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, have sent you to them. [That will happen] if they faithfully obey me, Yahweh, your/their God.”
