Zakaria 2
1 Nampiandraeko maso le nahatrea te ingo t’indaty minday talim-panjeheañe am-pità’e.
And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
2 Le hoe iraho: Homb’aia v’iheo? Le hoe re amako: Hanjehe Ierosalaime, hahaisake ty am-pohe’e naho ty an-dava’e.
And I said to him, Whither goest thou? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth of it, and what is the length of it.
3 Aa le ingo nionjom-beo i anjely nisaontsy amakoy, vaho niakatse mb’eo ka ty anjely raike hifanalaka ama’e,
And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stood [by], and another angel went forth to meet him,
4 le nanoe’e ty hoe: Mihitrifa, saontsio ty hoe amo ajalahio: Himoneñe tsy aman-kijoly t’Ierosalaime ty ami’ty hatsifotofoto’ ondaty naho añombe ama’e.
and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be fully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her.
5 Amy te, Izaho, hoe t’Iehovà ty ho kijolin’ afo ama’e hañarikatok’ aze; Izaho ty ho enge’e añivo’e ao.
And I will be to her, saith the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a glory in the midst of her.
6 Hoke! mirifata boak’ an-tane avaratse añe, hoe t’Iehovà; fa naboeleko añe manahake o tiok’efa’ i likerañeio nahareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord: for I will gather you from the four winds of heaven, saith the Lord,
7 Hoke! ry Tsione, mibolitiora ry mpimoneñe amy anak’ ampela’ i Baveley;
[even] to Sion: deliver yourselves, ye that dwell [with] the daughter of Babylon.
8 fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà’ i Màro, nañirak’ ahy hitoha engeñe amo fifeheañe nikopak’ azoo: Toe mipaoke ty saintem-pihainoko ze mitsapa anahareo.
For thus saith the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiled you: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye.
9 Ingo te hahelahelako ambone’ iereo ty tañako, le ho fikopaha’ o nitoroñe iareoo; vaho ho fohi’o te Iehovà ro nañirak’ ahy.
For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them: and ye shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
10 Misaboa naho mirebeha, ry anak’ ampela’ i Tsione; fa ingo ho avy iraho himoneñe añivo’o ao, hoe t’Iehovà.
Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
11 Maro o fifeheañe hirekets’ am’ Iehovà amy andro zaio ty ho ondatiko, le himoneñe añivo’o ao iraho; vaho hapota’o te Iehovà’ i maroy ro nañirak’ ahy.
And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be for a people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of thee: and thou shalt know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to thee.
12 Ho rambese’ Iehovà t’Iehoda ho anjara’e amy tane miavakey vaho ho joboñe’e indraike t’Ierosalaime.
And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holy [land], and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
13 Mianjiña, ze kila nofotse, añatrefa’ Iehovà, ie fa nivañoñe naho niavotse i akiba’e miavakey.
Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
