Zakaria 12
1 Teny faminaniana avy tamin’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny Isiraely. Hoy Jehovah, Izay mamelatra ny lanitra sy manao ny fanorenan’ ny tany ary mamorona ny fanahin’ ny olona ao anatiny:
This is a declaration of Yahweh's word concerning Israel—a declaration of Yahweh, who stretched out the skies and laid the foundation of the earth, who fashions the spirit of mankind within man,
2 Indro, Izaho hanao an’ i Jerosalema ho kapoaka mampiraikiraiky ho an’ ny firenena rehetra manodidina; ary ny Joda koa hiharan’ izany ny hanaovana fahirano an’ i Jerosalema.
“See, I am about to make Jerusalem into a cup causing all the peoples surrounding her to stagger about. It will also be like that for Judah during the siege against Jerusalem.
3 Ary amin’ izany andro izany Jerosalema dia hataoko vato mavesatra ho an’ ny ny firenena rehetra, ka haràtra dia haràtra izay rehetra mivesatra azy; ary ho tafangona hamely azy ny firenena rehetra amin’ ny tany.
On that day, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. Anyone trying to lift that stone will hurt himself very much, and all the nations of the earth will gather against that city.
4 Amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, dia hamely ny soavaly amin’ ny fahaverezan-kevitra Aho, ary ny mpitaingina azy amin’ ny fahadalana, hampihiratra ny masoko amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda Aho ary hamely ny soavaly rehetra izay an’ ny firenena amin’ ny fahajambana.
On that day—this is Yahweh's declaration—I will strike every horse with confusion and its rider with madness. Over the house of Judah I will open my eyes, but every horse of the peoples I will strike with blindness.
5 Ary ireo lohany amin’ ny firenen’ i Joda dia hanao anakampo hoe: Ny mponina any Jerosalema dia heriko ao amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamaniny.
Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are our strength because of Yahweh of hosts, their God.'
6 Amin’ izany andro izany ireo lohany amin’ ny firenen’ i Joda dia hataoko tahaka ny fatana mirehitra eny amin’ ny hazo sy tahaka ny fanilo mirehitra eny amin’ ny amboara, ka handevona ny firenena rehetra manodidina amin’ ny ankavanana sy ny ankavia izy; ary Jerosalema dia mbola hiorina amin’ ny fitoerany ihany, dia any Jerosalema.
On that day I will make the leaders of Judah like firepots among wood and like a flaming torch among standing grain, for they will consume all the surrounding peoples on their right and on their left. Jerusalem will again live in her own place.”
7 Ary hovonjen’ i Jehovah aloha ny lain’ ny Joda, mba tsy hisandratra ambonin’ ny Joda intsony ny voninahitry ny taranak’ i Davida sy ny voninahitry ny mponina any Jerosalema.
Yahweh will save the tents of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and the honor of those who live in Jerusalem may not be greater than the rest of Judah.
8 Amin’ izany andro izany dia harovan’ i Jehovah ny mponina any Jerosalema; ary izay mila ho reraka ao aminy aza amin’ izany andro izany dia ho tahaka an’ i Davida; ary ny taranak’ i Davida ho tahaka an’ Andriamanitra, dia tahaka Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah eo anoloany.
On that day Yahweh will be the defender of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on that day those who are weak among them will be like David, while the house of David will be like God, like the angel of Yahweh in front of them.
9 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hitady handringana ny jentilisa rehetra izay avy hamely an’ i Jerosalema Aho.
“On that day that I will begin to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 Ary haidiko amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida sy amin’ ny mponina any Jerosalema ny fanahin’ ny fahasoavana sy ny fifonana, ka hijery Ahy Izay nolefoniny izy, ary hisaona Azy toy ny fisaonana zanakalahy tokana izy sady halahelo Azy toy ny fahalahelovan’ ny olona ny lahimatoany.
But I will pour out a spirit of compassion and pleading on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so they will look on me, the one they have pierced. They will mourn for me, as one mourns for an only son; they will bitterly lament for him like those who lament the death of a firstborn son.
11 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy fisaonana lehibe any Jerosalema toy ny fisaonana tao Hadadrimona eo amin’ ny lohasaha Megido.
On that day the laments in Jerusalem will be like the laments at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 Ary hisaona mitsitokantokana ny tany, samy isam-pianakaviana avy: ny fianakavian’ i Davida mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana; ny fianakavian’ i Natana mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana;
The land will mourn, each clan separate from other clans. The clan of the house of David will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men. The clan of the house of Nathan will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men.
13 ny fianakavian’ ny taranak’ i Levy mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana; ny fianakavian’ i Simey mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana;
The clan of the house of Levi will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men. The clan of the Shimeites will be separate and their wives will be separate from the men.
14 ny fianakaviana sisa rehetra mitokana isam-pianakaviana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana.
Every clan of the remaining clans—each clan will be separate and the wives will be separate from the men.”
