Zakaria 1
1 Niheo amy Zekarià mpitoky ana’ i Berekià ana’Idò amy volam-paha-valo’ i taom-paha-roe’ i Dariavese mpanjakaiy ty tsara’ Iehovà manao ty hoe:
In the eight moneth of the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto Zechariah the sonne of Berechiah, the sonne of Iddo, the Prophet, saying,
2 Niviñetse aman-droae’ areo t’Iehovà.
The Lord hath bene sore displeased with your fathers.
3 Aa le isaontsio ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Mimpolia amako, hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, vaho himpoliako ka, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
Therefore say thou vnto them, Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Turne ye vnto me, saith the Lord of hostes, and I will turne vnto you, saith the Lord of hostes.
4 Ko mitsikombe an-droae’ areo, o nitseize’ o mpitoky taoloo ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Mifotera amo sata rati’ areoo henane zao, naho amo fitoloña’ areo ratio; f’ie tsy nijanjiñe, tsy nañaoñe ahy, hoe t’Iehovà.
Be ye not as your fathers, vnto whome the former prophets haue cried, saying, Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Turne you nowe from your euill wayes, and from your wicked workes: but they would not heare, nor hearken vnto me, saith the Lord.
5 O roae’ areoo! aia iereo? naho o mpitokio, veloñe nainai’e hao?
your fathers, where are they? and doe the Prophets liue for euer?
6 Fa o volakoo naho o fañèko nafantoko amo mpitoky mpitorokoo, tsy ie hao ty nahatakatse o roae’ areoo? ie nitolike nanao ty hoe: Toe i nisafirie’ Iehovà’ i Màroy hanoañe ty amo sata’aio naho o fitoloña’aio izay, ty nafetsake ama’ay.
But did not my wordes and my statutes, which I commanded by my seruants ye Prophets, take holde of your fathers? and they returned, and sayd, As the Lord of hostes hath determined to doe vnto vs, according to our owne wayes, and according to our workes, so hath hee dealt with vs.
7 Ie amy andro faha-roapolo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-paha-folo-raik’ambiy, i volan-katsiha an-taom-paha-roe’ i Dariavesey, le niheo amy Zekarià mpitoky ana’ i Berekià, ana’ Idò ty tsara i’ Iehovà, manao ty hoe:
Vpon the foure and twentieth day of the eleuenth moneth, which is the moneth Shebat, in the second yeere of Darius, came the worde of the Lord vnto Zechariah the sonne of Berechiah, the sonne of Iddo the Prophet, saying,
8 Niaroñaroñeko amy haleñey, te ingo t’indaty niningitse soavala mena, nijohañe ambane’ ty borodoke an-goledoñe ao, naho amboho’e ty soavala mena naho ty mavo naho ty foty.
I saw by night, and behold a man riding vpon a red horse, and hee stood among the mirre trees, that were in a bottome, and behinde him were there red horses speckeled and white.
9 Le hoe iraho, Hoke ry Talè, Inoñe o reroañeo? Aa hoe i ìrake nisaontsy amakoy, Hatoroko azo ty lengo’ iretoañe.
Then sayd I, O my Lord, what are these? And the Angel that talked with me, sayde vnto me, I wil shew thee what these be.
10 Nanoiñe amy zao indaty nijohañe amo borodokeoy, ami’ty hoe: Ie o nirahe’ Iehovà hañavelo mb’eo mb’eo an-tane atoio.
And the man that stood among the mirre trees, answered, and sayd, These are they whome the Lord hath sent to go through the world.
11 Vinale’ iareo ty anjeli’ Iehovà nijohañe amo borodokeo ami’ty hoe: Nanjotike mb’eo mb’eo amy taney zahay, le ingo, mipendreñe i taney vaho mitofa.
And they answered the Angel of the Lord, that stood among the mirre trees, and sayd, We haue gone thorowe the world: and beholde, all the world sitteth still, and is at rest.
12 Nanoiñe amy zao ty anjeli’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe: Ry Iehovà’ i Màroy, ombia te ho ferenaiñeñe t’Ierosalaime naho o rova’ Iehodao, o nitorifiha’o i fitompolo taoñe rezaio?
Then the Angel of the Lord answered and sayd, O Lord of hostes, howe long wilt thou be vnmercifull to Ierusalem, and to the cities of Iudah, with whom thou hast bene displeased now these threescore and ten yeeres?
13 Tinoi’Iehovà tsara soa i anjely nisaontsy amakoy, tsaran-kanintsiñe.
And the Lord answered the Angel that talked with me, with good wordes and comfortable wordes.
14 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i anjely nifanaontsy amakoy, taroño ty hoe, Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy; farahieko t’Ierosalaime naho i Tsione am-parahy ra’elahy.
So the Angel that communed with me, said vnto me, Crie thou, and speake, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I am ielous ouer Ierusalem and Zion with a great zeale,
15 Loho nahabosek’ ahy o kilakila’ondaty miaiñañoleñañeo; ie ni-bosebosehako avao, fe nindràe’ iareo i hasilofeñey.
And am greatly angrie against the carelesse heathen: for I was angrie but a litle, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Mimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime am-piferenaiñan-draho; haoreko ao i kivohokoy, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, vaho ho kozozoteñe am’ Ierosalaime ty taly.
Therefore thus saith the Lord, I wil returne vnto Ierusalem with tender mercie: mine house shall be builded in it, saith the Lord of hostes, and a line shall be stretched vpon Ierusalem.
17 Taroño indraike, ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, Hitòbake havokarañe indraike i rovakoy; naho mbe ho tretreze’ Iehovà t’i Tsione, vaho mbe ho joboñe’e t’Ierosalaime.
Cry yet, and speake, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, My cities shall yet be broken with plentie: the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet chuse Ierusalem.
18 Nampiandraeko maso le nahatrea te ingo ty tsifa efatse.
Then lift I vp mine eyes and sawe, and beholde, foure hornes.
19 Le hoe iraho amy anjely nifanaontsy amakoy, Inoñ’ o raha zaoo? Le hoe re amako: I tsifa nampiparaitake Iehoda naho Israele vaho Ierosalaime rey.
And I said vnto the Angel that talked with me, What be these? And hee answered me, These are the hornes which haue scattered Iudah, Israel, and Ierusalem.
20 Natoro’ Iehovà ahy ty mpandranjy efatse.
And the Lord shewed me foure carpenters.
21 Le hoe ty asako: Hitoloñe inoñe t’ie nitotsak’ atoy? Le hoe ty tinaro’e: O tsifa retiañe ty nampivarakaike Iehoda kanao leo ondaty raike tsy nahaongake ty añambone’e; le nivotrak’ atoy i retiañe hañembañe iareo naho handretsake o tsifa’ o kilakila’ ondaty nampitroatse ty tsifa’e an-tane’ Iehoda hampiparatsàke azeo.
Then said I, What come these to doe? And he answered, and said, These are the hornes, which haue scattered Iudah, so that a man durst not lift vp his head: but these are come to fray them, and to cast out the hornes of the Gentiles, which lift vp their horne ouer the land of Iudah, to scatter it.
