1 Ngenyanga yesificaminwemibili yomnyaka wesibili kaDariyu, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kumphrofethi uZakhariya indodana kaBherekhiya, indodana ka-Ido lisithi:
Boqor Daariyus sannaddiisii labaad, bishii siddeedaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Berekyaah ina Iddo oo nebigii ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
2 “UThixo wazondiswa kakhulu ngokhokho benu.
Rabbigu aad buu awowayaashiin ugu cadhooday.
3 Ngakho tshela abantu uthi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla: ‘Buyelani kimi,’ kutsho uThixo uSomandla, ‘lami ngizabuya kini,’ utsho njalo uThixo uSomandla.
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Ii soo noqda, ayuu Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay, oo anna waan idiin soo noqonayaa, ayuu Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay.
4 Lingabi njengabokhokho benu, okwatsho kubo abaphrofethi bamandulo, bathi: Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Phendukani ezindleleni zenu zobubi lezenzo zenu ezimbi.’ Kodwa kabafunanga ukulalela loba ukukunanza okwakutshiwo, kutsho uThixo.
Ha ahaanina sidii awowayaashiin oo kale, kuwaasoo ahaa kuwii ay nebiyadii hore ku qayliyeen oo ay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Hadda ka soo noqda jidadkiinna sharka ah iyo falimihiinna sharka ahba, laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Iyagu ima ay maqlin, oo innaba ima ay dhegaysan.
5 Bangaphi manje okhokho benu na? Bona abaphrofethi kambe baphila okungapheliyo na?
Bal meeye awowayaashiin? Nebiyaduse miyey weligood iska noolaadaan?
6 Kodwa amazwi ami lemithetho yami engangilaye ngakho izinceku zami abaphrofethi kakuzange kuze kubafice yini okhokho benu? Kwayikhona bephenduka besithi, ‘UThixo uSomandla wenzile kithi okufanele izindlela zethu lezenzo njengalokho amisa ukukwenza.’”
Laakiinse erayadaydii iyo qaynuunnadaydii aan nebiyadii addoommadayda ahaa ku soo amray, sow ma gaadhin awowayaashiin? Oo iyana intay soo noqdeen ayay yidhaahdeen, Rabbiga ciidammadu siduu ku fikiray inuu nagu sameeyo, siday jidadkayagu ahaayeen, iyo siday falimahayagu ahaayeen ayuu nagu sameeyey.
7 Ngelanga lamatshumi amabili lane ngenyanga yetshumi lanye, inyanga uShebhathi, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyu, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kumphrofethi uZakhariya indodana kaBherekhiya, indodana ka-Ido.
Boqor Daariyus sannaddiisii labaad, bisheedii kow iyo tobnaad, taasoo ah bisha Shebaad maalinteedii afar iyo labaatanaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Berekyaah ina Iddo oo nebigii ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
8 Ebusuku ngafikelwa ngumbono, khonapho phambi kwami kwakulendoda egade ibhiza elibomvu! Yayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zomethile edongeni. Ngemva kwayo kwakulamanye amabhiza, elibomvu, eliyinsundu lelimhlophe.
Habeenkii waxaan arkay oo ii muuqday nin faras xamar ah fuushan, oo wuxuu dhex istaagay geedaha hadaaska la yidhaahdo oo meel hoos leh ku yiil, oo gadaashiisana waxaa joogay fardo kale oo midabkoodu yahay xamar iyo midab dibicyo leh iyo caddaan.
9 Ngayibuza ngathi, “Kuyini lokhu, nkosi yami na?” Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yaphendula yathi, “Ngizakutshengisa ukuthi kuyini.”
Markaasaan idhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waa maxay kuwanu? Markaasaa malaggii ila hadlay igu yidhi, Anigaa ku tusi doona waxa kuwanu yihiin.
10 Kwasekusithi leyondoda eyayimi ezihlahleni zomethile yachaza yathi, “Laba yibo uThixo abathumileyo ukuba bahambe emhlabeni wonke.”
Oo ninkii geedaha hadaaska ah dhex taagnaa ayaa jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Kuwanu waa kuwii Rabbigu u diray inay dhulka hore iyo dib u dhex maraan.
11 Basebebika engilosini kaThixo eyayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zomethile bathi, “Sesiwuhambile wonke umhlaba safumana ukuthi ilizwe lihlezi kuhle phakathi kokuthula.”
Oo iyana waxay u jawaabeen malaggii Rabbiga oo geedaha hadaaska ah dhex taagnaa oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Dhulkii hore iyo dibba waannu u dhex marnay, oo bal eeg, dhulkii oo dhammu wuu deggan yahay oo wuu xasilloon yahay.
12 Ingilosi kaThixo yasisithi, “Thixo Somandla, koze kube nini ulokhu ugodla isihawu sakho phezu kweJerusalema lamadolobho akoJuda olokhu uwathukuthelele yonke iminyaka le engamatshumi ayisikhombisa?”
Markaasaa malaggii Rabbigu jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiga ciidammadow, ilaa goormaadan u naxariisanayn Yeruusaalem iyo magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah, kuwaasoo aad toddobaatan sannadood u cadhaysnayd?
13 Ngakho uThixo wasekhuluma amazwi omusa, aduduzayo kuleyongilosi eyayikhuluma lami.
Markaasaa Rabbigu malaggii ila hadlay ugu jawaabay erayo wanaagsan oo qabow.
14 Kwasekusithi ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yathi, “Memezela leli ilizwi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Ngilobukhwele ngeJerusalema leZiyoni,
Kolkaasaa malaggii ila hadlay igu yidhi, War qayli, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu Yeruusaalem iyo Siyoonba waxaan ugu masayrsanahay masayr weyn.
15 kodwa ngizondile ngalezozizwe ezihlezi zanaba zaziba. Ngangithukuthele kancane kodwa zawengezelela lowo monakalo.’
Oo aad iyo aad baan ugu cadhooday quruumaha iska istareexsan! Waayo, anigoo in yar u cadhaysan ayay sii badiyeen dhibaatadii.
16 Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Ngizabuya eJerusalema ngilomusa, khonapho indlu yami izakwakhiwa kutsha. Intambo yesilinganiso izakwelulwa eJerusalema,’ kutsho uThixo uSomandla.
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Yeruusaalem ayaan naxariis kula soo noqday. Oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Gurigayga waa laga dhisi doonaa dhexdeeda, oo Yeruusaalem korkeeda waxaa lagu fidin doonaa xadhig qiyaaseed.
17 Memezela njalo uthi: Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla, uthi: ‘Amadolobho ami azaphinda njalo aphuphume ngenotho, njalo uThixo uzaphinda ayiduduze iZiyoni, ayikhethe iJerusalema.’”
Oo haddana qayli oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Magaalooyinkaygu mar kalay barwaaqo la faafi doonaan, oo Rabbigu mar kaluu Siyoon u qalbi qaboojin doonaa, oo mar kaluu Yeruusaalem dooran doonaa.
18 Ngase ngiphakamisa amehlo ami, phambi kwami kwakulempondo ezine!
Oo indhahaygii baan kor u qaaday, oo wax baan fiiriyey, oo waxaan arkay afar gees.
19 Ngabuza ingilosi leyo eyayikhuluma lami, ngathi, “Kuyini lokhu?” Yaphendula yathi, “Lezi yizo impondo ezachitha uJuda, lo-Israyeli leJerusalema.”
Oo anna waxaan malaggii ila hadlay ku idhi, Waa maxay kuwanu? Oo isna wuxuu iigu jawaabay, Kuwanu waa geesihii kala firdhiyey dadkii dalka Yahuudah iyo dadkii dalka Israa'iil iyo Yeruusaalemba.
20 UThixo wasengitshengisa abakhandi abane.
Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu i tusay afar tumaal.
21 Ngabuza ngathi, “Laba bazekwenzani na?” Waphendula wathi, “Lezi yimpondo ezachitha uJuda ukuze angabikhona ovusa ikhanda, kodwa abakhandi balande ukuxegisa amadolo abo, bazilahlele phansi impondo lezi ezezizwe ezaphakamisa impondo zazo phezu kwelizwe lakoJuda ukuchitha abantu balo.”
Kolkaasaan idhi, Kuwanu maxay u yimaadeen inay sameeyaan? Oo isna wuu hadlay oo wuxuu yidhi, Kuwanu waa geesihii kala firdhiyey dadkii dalka Yahuudah si aan ninna madaxiisa ugu qaadin aawadeed. Laakiinse kuwanu waxay haatan u yimaadeen inay ka argaggixiyaan, oo ay hoos u tuuraan quruumaha geesahooda kor ugu qaaday dalka Yahuudah inay kala firdhiyaan.
