Zakaria 10
1 Mangataha ranonorana amin’ i Jehovah ianareo amin’ ny andro fara-orana, Dia amin’ i Jehovah, Izay manao ny helatra; Ranonorana mivatravatra no homeny azy, Eny, samy homeny ny zava-maitso any an-tsaha ireny.
Ask ye of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.
2 Fa ny sampy niteny zava-poana, Ary ny mpanao fankatovana nahita lainga Ka nilaza nofy lainga, Foana ny nampiononany; Koa izany no naniavany toy ny ondry Ory izy, satria tsy misy mpiandry.
For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.
3 Amin’ ny mpiandry ondry no irehetan’ ny fahatezerako, Ary ireo osilahy no hovaliako; Fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, efa namangy ny taranak’ i Joda ondriny Ka manao azy toy ny soavaliny miravaka eo amin’ ny ady.
Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.
4 Avy ao aminy no hihavian’ ny fehizoro, Avy ao aminy no hihavian’ ny fihantonan-javatra, Avy ao aminy no hihavian’ ny tsipìka fiadiana, Avy ao aminy no hihavian’ ny mpampahory rehetra.
And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.
5 Ary ho toy ny lehilahy mahery ireo, Izay manitsaka ny fotaka eny an-dalana amin’ ny ady, Hiady izy, satria Jehovah no momba azy; Ary homenarina ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly.
And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.
6 Hampahery ny taranak’ i Joda Aho, Ary ny taranak’ i Josefa hovonjeko ka hampodiko, Satria mamindra fo aminy Aho, Ka ho toy izay tsy nariako izy; Fa Izaho no Jehovah Andriamaniny ka hihaino azy.
And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.
7 Ho toy ny lehilahy mahery Efraima, Ary hifaly toy ny azon’ ny divay ny fony; Ny zanany hahita ka ho faly; Hifaly amin’ i Jehovah ny fony.
And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
8 Hisiaka hiantso azy Aho ka hanangona azy, Fa efa nanavotra azy Aho; Ka dia mbola hihamaro toy ny efa nihamaroany ihany izy.
I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.
9 Ary hafafiko any amin’ ny firenena izy, Ka any amin’ ny tany lavitra no hahatsiarovany Ahy; Ary samy ho velona izy mbamin’ ny zanany ka hiverina
And I will sow them among the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.
10 Dia hampody azy avy any amin’ ny tany Egypta Aho sy hanangona azy avy any Asyria; Ary ho any amin’ ny tany Gileada sy Libanona no hitondrako azy, Ka tsy ho omby azy izany
And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from among the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.
11 Dia hamaky ny ranomasim-pahoriana izy ka hamely ny onjan-dranomasina, Ho ritra ny rano lalin’ i Neily rehetra, Haetry ny avonavon’ i Asyria, Ary hiala ny tehina fanapahan’ i Egypta.
And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.
12 Dia hampahereziko ao amin’ i Jehovah izy, Ka ny anarany no handehanany, hoy Jehovah.
And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, saith the Lord.
