< 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:
The burden of a word of Jehovah on Israel. An affirmation of Jehovah, Stretching out heaven, and founding earth, And forming the spirit of man in his midst.
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.
Lo, I am making Jerusalem a cup of reeling To all the peoples round about, And also against Judah it is, In 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.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone to all the peoples, All loading it are completely pressed down, And gathered against it have been all nations of the earth.
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.
In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do smite every horse with astonishment, And its rider with madness, And on the house of Judah I open My eyes, And every horse of the peoples I smite 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.
And leaders of Judah have said in their heart, 'Strength to me [are] the inhabitants of Jerusalem, In Jehovah 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.
In that day I make the leaders of Judah As a hearth of fire among trees, And as a torch of fire in a sheaf, And they have consumed — on the right and on the left — all the peoples round about, And Jerusalem hath inhabited again her place in Jerusalem.
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.
And saved hath Jehovah the tents of Judah first, So that become not great against Judah Doth the beauty of the house of David, And the beauty of the inhabitant of Jerusalem.
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.
In that day cover over doth Jehovah the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And the stumbling among them hath been in that day as David, And the house of David as God — As a messenger of Jehovah — before them.
9 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hitady handringana ny jentilisa rehetra izay avy hamely an’ i Jerosalema Aho.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, I seek to destroy all the nations Who are coming in 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.
And I have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.
11 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy fisaonana lehibe any Jerosalema toy ny fisaonana tao Hadadrimona eo amin’ ny lohasaha Megido.
In that day, great is the mourning of Jerusalem, As the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon,
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;
And mourned hath the land — every family apart, The family of the house of David apart, And their women apart; The family of the house of Nathan apart, And their women apart;
13 ny fianakavian’ ny taranak’ i Levy mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana; ny fianakavian’ i Simey mitokana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana;
The family of the house of Levi apart, And their women apart; The family of Shimei apart, And their women apart,
14 ny fianakaviana sisa rehetra mitokana isam-pianakaviana, ary ny vadin’ ireo mitokana.
All the families that are left, Every family apart, and their women apart!
