Zakaria 10
1 Ihalalio orañe am’ Iehovà, oran-doha-taoñe am’ Iehovà mpitsene i helatsey; vaho hampikojojoaha’e orañe, fonga ondaty ty amo mitiry an-tete’eo.
Ask ye of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] Jehovah that maketh lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.
2 Fa mikora aman-tahiñe o ambiasao, naho mahaonim-bande o mpisikilio, mivolam-bìlañe ka o nofio, tsy jefa’e ty fañohò’ iareo; aa le mirererere hoe añondry iereo, misotry fa tsy amam-piarake.
For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.
3 Misolebotse amo mpiarakeo ty habosehako, le ho liloveko o ose-lahio; fa tiahi’ Iehovà’ i Màroy i lia-rai’ey, i anjomba’ Iehoday ie hanoe’e hoe soavalam-bolonahe’e an-kotakotak’ ao.
Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle.
4 Boak’am’ iareo ty vato-lahy, hirik’am’ iereo ty fantake, boak’am’ iereo ty falen-kotakotake, vaho hirik’am’ iereo ao ze mpameleke—hiharo
From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.
5 hoe fanalolahy iereo, ho lialia’ iereo am-potak’ an-dalañe ao t’ie mihotakotake naho mifandraparapake, fa mindre am’ iereo t’Iehovà vaho hifandrakaraka o mpiningi-tsoavalao.
And they shall be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them; and the riders on horses shall be confounded.
6 Hampaozareko ty anjomba’ Iehodà, naho ho rombaheko ty anjomba’ Iosefe, hampoliko fa iferenaiñako, vaho hanahake t’ie tsy nahifiko añe, amy te izaho Iehovà t’i Andrianañahare’ iareo, le ho toiñeko.
And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will hear them.
7 Hanahake ondaty manjofakeo t’i Efraime, le hirebeke ty arofo’ iareo hoe an-divay; Eka hahaisake izay o ana’eo vaho handia-taroba, hifale am’ Iehovà ty arofo’ iareo.
And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine; yea, their children shall see it, and rejoice; their heart shall be glad in Jehovah.
8 Ho tsikaoreko, naho hatontoko, amy t’ie nijebañeko, ie hitombo ho mira ami’ty hamaro’e taolo.
I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they shall increase as they have increased.
9 Ie aparatsiako amo fifeheañeo, le hahatiahy ahy an-tsietoitane añe; naho ho veloñe iereo naho o ana’ iareoo, vaho himpoly.
And I will sow them among the peoples; and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and shall return.
10 Hampoliko boak’an-tane Mitsraime, naho hatontoko boak’ Asore añe; vaho hendeseko mb’an-tane Gilade naho mb’e Libanone mb’eo; ampara’ te tsy tsahatse i toetsey.
I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and [place] shall not be found for them.
11 Ho sorohe’e i ria-kaloviloviañey, ho fofohe’e o onjan-driakeo, le ho maike o godobo’ i sakaio, naho hafotsake ty enge’ i Asore vaho hipitsok’ añe ty kobai’ i Mitsraime.
And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will smite the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up; and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart.
12 Hampaozareko am’ Iehovà iereo vaho i tahina’ey ty hidraidraita’ iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Jehovah.
