1 Ngenyanga yesificaminwembili, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi kuZekhariya, indodana kaBerekiya, indodana kaIdo umprofethi, lisithi:
Le ɣleti enyilia me le Fia Darius ƒe ƒe evelia me la, gbe tso Yehowa gbɔ va na Nyagblɔɖila Zekaria, Berekia ƒe vi kple Ido ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi be,
2 INkosi yabathukuthelela oyihlo ngentukuthelo.
“Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe mia fofowo ŋu vevie,
3 Ngakho wothi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Phendukelani kimi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, lami ngizaphendukela kini, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
eya ta gblɔ na ameawo be ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi, ‘Mitrɔ ɖe ŋunye, ekema nye hã matrɔ ɖe mia ŋu!’
4 Lingabi njengaboyihlo, abaprofethi bakuqala abamemeza kubo, besithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Ake liphenduke ezindleleni zenu ezimbi lezenzweni zenu ezimbi; kodwa kabezwanga, kabangilalelanga, itsho iNkosi.
Miganɔ abe mia fofowo ene o, ame siwo nyagblɔɖila tsãtɔwo gblɔ na be ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Mitrɔ le miaƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo dzi, eye miaɖe asi le miaƒe nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔwo ŋuti.’ Gake wogbe toɖoɖom, eye wometsɔ ɖeke le eme nam o.
5 Oyihlo, bangaphi? Labaprofethi, baphila laphakade yini?
Afi ka mia fofowo le fifia, eye ɖe nyagblɔɖilawo nɔa agbe tegbea?
6 Kodwa amazwi ami lezimiso zami, engakulaya izinceku zami abaprofethi, kakubaficanga oyihlo yini? Basebephenduka bathi: Njengalokhu iNkosi yamabandla yayinakana ukukukwenza kithi, njengokwezindlela zethu lanjengokwezenzo zethu, ngokunjalo yenze kithi.
Ke ɖe nye nya kple ɖoɖo siwo mede asi na nye dɔla, nyagblɔɖilawo la meva mia fofowo dzi oa? “Le esia ta la, wotrɔ dzi me gblɔ be, ‘Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la wɔ na mí ɖe míaƒe mɔwo kple wɔnawo nu abe ale si wòɖoe be yeawɔ ene.’”
7 Ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga yetshumi lanye, okuyinyanga uShebati, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi, lafika ilizwi leNkosi kuZekhariya, indodana kaBerekiya, indodana kaIdo umprofethi, lisithi:
Le ɣleti wuiɖekɛlia si nye Sebat ƒe ŋkeke blaeve-vɔ-enelia dzi, le Fia Darius ƒe ƒe evelia me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va na nyagblɔɖila Zekaria, Berekia ƒe vi kple Ido ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi.
8 Ngabona ebusuku, khangela-ke umuntu owayegade ibhiza elibomvu, njalo wayemi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli eziseliweni, lemva kwakhe kwakulamabhiza abomvu, alibhidi, lamhlophe.
Mekpɔ ŋutega le zã me, eye le ŋutega la me la, mekpɔ ŋutsu aɖe wònɔ sɔ dzĩ aɖe dom. Sɔdola la tsi tsitre ɖe amitive aɖe me le bali aɖe me. Sɔ dzĩ, sɔ hẽ kple sɔ ɣi bubuwo nɔ emegbe.
9 Ngasengisithi: Bayini laba, nkosi yami? Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yasisithi kimi: Mina ngizakutshengisa ukuthi laba bayini.
Mebia be, “Nye Aƒetɔ, nu kawoe nye esiawo?” Mawudɔla si nɔ nu ƒom kplim la ɖo eŋu nam be, “Mafia nu si wonye la wò.”
10 Umuntu owayemi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli wasephendula wathi: Laba yibo iNkosi ebathumileyo ukuhamba besiya le lale emhlabeni.
Tete ame si tsi tsitre ɖe amitiawo dome la ɖe eme nam be, “Woawoe nye ame siwo Yehowa dɔ be woatsa le anyigba blibo la dzi.”
11 Basebephendula ingilosi yeNkosi eyayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli, bathi: Sihambile, saya le lale emhlabeni, khangela-ke, wonke umhlaba uhlezi uthule.
Wova gblɔ na Yehowa ƒe dɔla, ame si nɔ tsitre ɖe amitiawo dome la be, “Míetsa le anyigba blibo la dzi, eye dzidzedze kple ŋutifafa le afi sia afi.”
12 Ingilosi yeNkosi yasiphendula yathi: Nkosi yamabandla, koze kube nini wena ungabi lesihawu phezu kweJerusalema laphezu kwemizi yakoJuda, osuyithukuthelele okweminyaka le engamatshumi ayisikhombisa?
Esi Yehowa ƒe dɔla la se nya siawo la, edo gbe ɖa be, “O Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, ƒe blaadree nye esi, esi nètrɔ wò dɔmedzoe kɔ ɖe Yerusalem kple Yuda ƒe duwo dzi. Va se ɖe ɣe ka ɣi nàgakpɔ nublanui na wo?”
13 INkosi yasiphendula ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami ngamazwi amahle, amazwi aduduzayo.
Yehowa ɖo eŋu na mawudɔla si le xanye la hegblɔ akɔfanyawo kple dzideƒonyawo nɛ.
14 Ngakho ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yathi kimi: Memeza, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Ngilobukhwele ngeJerusalema langeZiyoni ngobukhwele obukhulu.
Tete mawudɔla si nɔ nu ƒom kplim la gblɔ be, “Ɖe gbeƒã nya sia: ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Meʋã ŋu ɖe Yerusalem kple Zion nu ŋutɔ,
15 Njalo ngiyathukuthela ngentukuthelo enkulu ngezizwe ezonwabileyo; ngoba mina ngizondile kancinyane, kodwa zona zancedisa ngasebubini.
ke mekpɔ dɔmedzoe vevie ɖe dukɔ siwo susu be yewole dedie la ŋuti. Ke dɔmedzoe vi aɖe ko mekpɔ, gake woawoe he dzɔgbevɔ̃e la vɛ.’
16 Ngalokho, itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngibuyele eJerusalema ngilezihawu; indlu yami izakwakhiwa kuyo, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, lentambo yokulinganisa izakwelulwa phezu kweJerusalema.
“Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Matrɔ ɖe Yerusalem ŋu kple nublanuikpɔkpɔ. Le afi ma, woagbugbɔ nye xɔ la atu, eye woatsɔ nudzidzeka aɖo Yerusalem katã ŋuti.’ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
17 Phinda umemeze, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Imizi yami isezasatshalaliswa ngokuhle; njalo iNkosi isezaduduza iZiyoni, isezayikhetha iJerusalema.
“Yi edzi, nàɖe gbeƒã be ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi, ‘Nye duwo agagbagba kple dzidzedze, Yehowa agafa akɔ na Zion, eye wòagatia Yerusalem.’”
18 Ngasengiphakamisa amehlo ami, ngabona, khangela-ke, impondo ezine.
Esi mefɔ kɔ dzi la, mekpɔ lãdzo ene le nye ŋkume.
19 Ngasengisithi kuyo ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami: Kuyini lokhu? Yasisithi kimi: Lezi zimpondo ezihlakaze uJuda, uIsrayeli, leJerusalema.
Mebia mawudɔla la be “Nu kawoe nye esiawo?” Eɖo eŋu nam be, “Woawoe nye lãdzo siwo kaka Yuda, Israel kple Yerusalem.”
20 INkosi yasingitshengisa ingcitshi ezine.
Yehowa gaɖe gbede ene fiam.
21 Ngasengisithi: Lezi zizekwenzani? Yasikhuluma isithi: Lezi zimpondo ezihlakaze uJuda, kwaze kwangabi lomuntu ophakamisa ikhanda lakhe; kodwa lezi zize ukuzethusa, ukulahla izimpondo zabezizwe, ezaphakamisa uphondo lumelene lelizwe lakoJuda ukulihlakaza.
Mebia be, “Nu ka wɔ ge wogbɔna?” Eɖo eŋu nam be, “Esiawoe nye lãdzo siwo kaka Yuda ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke mate ŋu afɔ ta dzi o. Ke gbedeawo va be woado ŋɔdzi na wo, eye woatsɔ dukɔwo ƒe lãdzo siawo aƒu ame siwo kɔ woƒe dzowo dzi ɖe Yudanyigba ŋu be yewoakaka eƒe amewo la anyi.”
