< 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! It is Jehovah that maketh the lightning; And he will give you abundant showers, To every one the herb of 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 speak falsehood, And the diviners see a lie, And the dreams speak falsehood; Vain are their consolations. Therefore they wander as a flock; They are in distress, 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.
My anger is kindled against the shepherds, And the bucks will I punish; For Jehovah of hosts will visit his flock, the house of Judah, And make them as his goodly horse in 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 shall every leader come forth.
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, Who tread down their enemies in battle as the mire of the streets, And they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them, So that 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 give victory to the house of Joseph, And I will set them in their dwellings, because I have compassion 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 Ephraim shall be as a mighty man, And their heart shall rejoice, as through wine; And their sons shall see it and rejoice, Their hearts shall rejoice in Jehovah.
8 Ho tsikaoreko, naho hatontoko, amy t’ie nijebañeko, ie hitombo ho mira ami’ty hamaro’e taolo.
I will whistle for them, and will gather them; for I have redeemed them; And they shall increase as they increased before.
9 Ie aparatsiako amo fifeheañeo, le hahatiahy ahy an-tsietoitane añe; naho ho veloñe iereo naho o ana’ iareoo, vaho himpoly.
Though I scatter them among the nations, Yet in far countries will they remember me; 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.
And I will bring them back from the land of Egypt, And from Assyria will I gather them; And I will bring them into the land of Gilead and of Lebanon, And there shall not be room enough 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 shall pass through the sea of distress, And he shall smite the sea of waves, And all the depths of the river shall be dried 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 through Jehovah, And in his name shall they walk, saith Jehovah.
