< Zekaria 6 >

1 NANA hou ae la au iluna, ike aku la, aia hoi, puka mai la na halekaa eha mai waena mai o na mauna elua, a he mau mauna keleawe melemele laua.
And I again lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, there came out four chariots from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of copper.
2 Ma ka halekaa mua he mau lio ulaula; ma ka lua o ka halekaa he mau lio eleele;
In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot, black horses:
3 I ke kolu o ka halekaa, he mau lio keokeo, a i ka ha o ka halekaa he mau lio kaliko a he makue.
And in the third chariot, white horses; and in the fourth chariot, grizzled, ash-colored horses.
4 Alaila, ninau aku laau, i aku la i ka anela i kamailio me au, E ka haku, heaha keia mau mea?
And I began and said unto the angel that spoke with me, What are these, my lord?
5 Olelo mai la ka anela, i mai la ia'u, Eia na uhane eha o ka lani, e hele ae ana mai kahi a lakou i ku aku ai imua o ka Haku o ka honua a pau.
And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth after having stood before the Lord of all the earth.
6 A hele aku no ko laila mau lio eleele i ka aina kukulu akau; a hele aku na mea keokeo mamuli o laua; a hele aku hoi na mea kaliko ma ka aina kukulu hema.
The [chariot] on which are black horses—these go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go forth toward the south country.
7 Aka, hele iho la na mea makue e imi e holoholo maluna o ka honua: i aku la kela ia lakou, Ou haele, e holoholo ae oukou mai o a o, ma ka honua. A holoholo ae la lakou mai o a o, ma ka honua.
And the red-colored were gone forth, and sought to traverse the earth: and he said, Go, traverse the earth. So they traversed the earth.
8 Alaila kahea mai la kela ia'u, i mai la ia'u, Aia hoi, o ka poe i hele ma ka aina kukuluakau, ua hoomalielie lakou i kuu inaina ma ka aina kukuluakau.
Then cried he loudly unto me, and spoke unto me, saying, Behold, these that are going toward the north country, have quieted [the indignation of] my spirit in the north country.
9 Hiki hou mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia'u, i mai la,
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
10 E kono oe i kekahi poe i lawe pio, i ko Heledai, i ko Tobiia, a i ko Iedaia, i ko ka poe i hoi mai, mai Babulona mai, a hele oe a e komo ia la iloko o ka hale o Iosia o ke keiki a Zepania;
Take from the exiles, from Cheldai, from Tobiyahu, and from Yeda'yah, and thou shalt come on the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephanyah, whither they have arrived from Babylon;
11 E lawe hoi oe i ke kala a me ke gula, a e hana i k na papale alii, a e kau ia mau mea maluna o ke poo o Iosua o ke keiki a Iosedeka ke kahuna nui;
Take also silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak the high priest;
12 Penei hoi e olelo aku ai ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua, penei, Aia hoi ke kanaka ua kapaia kona inoa, o ka LALA; e kupu auanei oia mailoko ae o kona wahi, nana no e hana ka luakini o Iehova;
And thou shalt say unto him as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold a man, Sprout is his name; since out of his own place shall he sprout up, even he shall build the temple of the Lord:
13 Nana no e hana ka luakini o Iehova; a nana hoi e lawe ka hanohano, a e alii mai no oia e noho ana maluna o kona nohoalii; a e kahuna no auanei oia maluna o kona nohoalii; a mawaena o laua auanei ka mea e malu ai.
Yea, he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and a priest shall be upon his own throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between both of them.
14 A e lilo na papale alii no Helema, no Tobiia, no Iedaia, a no Hena ke keiki a Zepania, i mea hoomanao ai iloko o ka luakini o Iehova.
And the crowns shall be for Chelem, and for Tobiyah, and for Yeda'yah, and for Chen the son of Zephanyah, as a memorial in the temple of the Lord.
15 A e hele mai auanei ka poe mamao, a e hana lakou i ka luakini o Iehova, a e ike auanei oukou, ua hoouna mai o Iehova o na kaua ia'u io oukou la: a e ko auanei keia, ke hoolohe pono oukou i ka leo o Iehova ko oukou Akua.
And distant ones shall come and build on the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God.
