Zakariya 8
1 Maganar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ta sāke zuwa gare ni.
The word of the LORD of Armies came to me.
2 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ina kishin Sihiyona ƙwarai; ina kuma cike da kishi dominta.”
The LORD of Armies says: “I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath.”
3 Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan koma Sihiyona in zauna a Urushalima. Sa’an nan za a kira Urushalima Birnin Gaskiya, a kuma kira dutsen Ubangiji Maɗaukaki Dutse Mai Tsarki.”
The LORD says: “I have returned to Zion, and will dwell in the middle of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be called ‘The City of Truth;’ and the mountain of the LORD of Armies, ‘The Holy Mountain.’”
4 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Tsofaffi maza da mata za su sāke zauna a titunan Urushalima, kowanne da sanda a hannu saboda tsufa.
The LORD of Armies says: “Old men and old women will again dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand because of their old age.
5 Titunan birnin za su cika da samari da’yan mata suna wasa.”
The streets of the city will be full of boys and girls playing in its streets.”
6 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Mai yiwuwa ya zama da mamaki ga raguwar wannan mutanen da suke nan a lokacin, amma zai zama abin mamaki gare ni ne?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
The LORD of Armies says: “If it is marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvellous in my eyes?” says the LORD of Armies.
7 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Zan ceci mutanena daga ƙasashen gabas da yamma.
The LORD of Armies says: “Behold, I will save my people from the east country and from the west country.
8 Zan komo da su su zauna a Urushalima; za su zama mutanena, ni kuwa zan zama amintaccen Allahnsu mai adalci.”
I will bring them, and they will dwell within Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.”
9 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ku da yanzu kuke jin maganan nan da annabawa suka faɗi, waɗanda suke a nan lokacin da aka kafa harsashin haikalin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, bari hannuwanku su zama da ƙarfi don a gama gina haikalin.
The LORD of Armies says: “Let your hands be strong, you who hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets who were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of Armies was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.
10 Kafin wannan lokaci babu albashi domin mutum ko dabba. Ba wanda yake iya sakewa yă yi hidimominsa saboda maƙiya, domin na sa kowa yă zama maƙiyi maƙwabcinsa.
For before those days there was no wages for man nor any wages for an animal, neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary. For I set all men everyone against his neighbour.
11 Amma yanzu ba zan yi da waɗanda raguwar mutane yadda na yi da na dā ba,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
But now I will not be to the remnant of this people as in the former days,” says the LORD of Armies.
12 “Iri zai yi girma da kyau, kuringa za tă ba da’ya’yanta, ƙasa za tă ba da hatsi, sama kuma za tă ba da raɓa. Zan ba da duk waɗannan abubuwa su zama gādo ga raguwar mutanen nan.
“For the seed of peace and the vine will yield its fruit, and the ground will give its increase, and the heavens will give their dew. I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
13 Kamar yadda kuka zama abin la’ana a ƙasashe, ya Yahuda da Isra’ila, haka zan cece ku, za ku kuma zama albarka. Kada ku ji tsoro, sai dai ku bar hannuwanku su zama da ƙarfi.”
It shall come to pass that, as you were a curse amongst the nations, house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you, and you shall be a blessing. Don’t be afraid. Let your hands be strong.”
14 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Kamar dai yadda na yi niyyar kawo muku bala’i, in kuma ƙi jin tausayi sa’ad da kakanninku suka ba ni haushi,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki,
For the LORD of Armies says: “As I thought to do evil to you when your fathers provoked me to wrath,” says the LORD of Armies, “and I didn’t repent,
15 kada ku ji tsoro “saboda a yanzu na yi niyya in sāke yi wa Urushalima da Yahuda abu mai kyau.
so again I have thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Don’t be afraid.
16 Abubuwan da za ku yi ke nan. Ku gaya wa juna gaskiya, ku kuma dinga yin shari’ar gaskiya a ɗakunanku na shari’arku;
These are the things that you shall do: speak every man the truth with his neighbour. Execute the judgement of truth and peace in your gates,
17 kada ku ƙulla wa maƙwabtanku mugunta, kuma kada ku so yin rantsuwa ta ƙarya. Ina ƙyamar waɗannan duka,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbour, and love no false oath; for all these are things that I hate,” says the LORD.
18 Maganar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ta sāke zuwa wurina.
The word of the LORD of Armies came to me.
19 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Azumin wata na huɗu, da na watan biyar, da na watan bakwai da na watan goma za su zama lokutan farin ciki da murna da kuma bukukkuwa na murna ga Yahuda. Saboda haka sai ku ƙaunaci gaskiya da salama.”
The LORD of Armies says: “The fasts of the fourth, fifth, seventh, and tenth months shall be for the house of Judah joy, gladness, and cheerful feasts. Therefore love truth and peace.”
20 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Mutane da yawa da kuma mazaunan birane da yawa har yanzu za su zo,
The LORD of Armies says: “Many peoples and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come.
21 mazaunan wani birni za su je wurin mazaunan wani birni su ce, ‘Bari mu je nan da nan mu roƙi Ubangiji mu kuma nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. Ni kaina zan je.’
The inhabitants of one will go to another, saying, ‘Let’s go speedily to entreat the favour of the LORD, and to seek the LORD of Armies. I will go also.’
22 Mutane da yawa kuma da al’ummai masu ƙarfi za su zo Urushalima su nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki su kuma roƙe shi.”
Yes, many peoples and strong nations will come to seek the LORD of Armies in Jerusalem and to entreat the favour of the LORD.”
23 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “A kwanakin nan, mutane goma daga kabilu da al’ummai za su riƙe rigar mutumin Yahuda guda su ce, ‘Bari mu tafi tare da kai, domin mun ji cewa Allah yana tare da ku.’”
The LORD of Armies says: “In those days, ten men out of all the languages of the nations will take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, ‘We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’”
