Zakkaariyaas 4
1 Ergasii ergamaan Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sun deebiʼee akkuma nama hirribaa dammaqfamuutti na dammaqse.
Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yabuya futhi, yangivusa, njengomuntu ovuswa ebuthongweni bakhe.
2 Innis, “Ati maal argita?” jedhee na gaafate. Anis akkana jedheen deebise; “Ani baattuu ibsaa kan guutumaan guututti warqee taʼe cuggeen tokkos isa irra dhaabamee, ibsaawwan torba of irraa qabu kan ibsaawwan sanaaf ujummoowwan torba qabu tokko nan arga.
Yathi kimi: Ubonani? Ngasengisithi: Ngibonile, khangela-ke uluthi lwesibane lwegolide lonke, lomganu phezu kwesihloko salo, lezibane zalo eziyisikhombisa phezu kwalo; kulezimpompi eziyisikhombisa leziyisikhombisa ezingasezibaneni, eziphezu kwesihloko salo.
3 Akkasumas mukkeen ejersaa lama, tokko karaa mirga cuggeetiin, kaan immoo karaa bitaa cuggeetiin jira.”
Lezihlahla zomhlwathi ezimbili eceleni kwalo, esinye ngakwesokunene komganu, lesinye ngakwesokhohlo kwawo.
4 Anis, “Yaa gooftaa wanni kun maali?” jedheen ergamaa Waaqayyoo kan natti dubbachaa ture sana gaafadhe.
Ngasengiphendula ngikhuluma kuyo ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami, ngisithi: Lezizinto ziyini, nkosi yami?
5 Inni immoo, “Ati isaan maal akka taʼan hin beektuu?” jedhee naaf deebise. Anis, “Yaa gooftaa ko, ani hin beeku” jedheen deebise.
Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yasiphendula yathi kimi: Kawazi yini ukuthi lezizinto ziyini? Ngasengisithi: Hatshi, nkosi yami.
6 Kanaafuu inni akkana naan jedhe; “Kun dubbii Waaqayyoo kan Zarubaabeliif kennamee dha: ‘Hafuura kootiin malee jabinaan yookaan humnaan miti’ jedha Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Yasiphendula yakhuluma lami isithi: Leli yilizwi leNkosi kuZerubhabheli, lisithi: Hatshi ngamandla, hatshi-ke ngengalo, kodwa ngomoya wami, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
7 “Yaa tulluu guddaa ati maali? Ati fuula Zarubaabel duratti lafa diriiraa taata. Innis, ‘Surraan, surraan isaaf haa taʼu!’ jedhanii iyyaa inni dhagaa xumuraa baasa.”
Ungubani wena, ntaba enkulu? Phambi kukaZerubhabheli uzakuba ligceke. Yena uzaveza ilitshe eliyinhloko ngokumemeza okukhulu: Umusa, umusa kulo!
8 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
9 “Harki Zarubaabel hundee mana qulqullummaa kanaa buuseera; harkuma isaatu ijaaree fixa. Ergasii isin akka Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu isinitti na erge ni beektu.
Izandla zikaZerubhabheli zibekile isisekelo salindlu; futhi izandla zakhe zizayiqeda. Njalo uzakwazi ukuthi iNkosi yamabandla ingithumile kini.
10 “Eenyutu guyyicha waan xinnoo tuffata? Namoonni gaafa harka Zarubaabel keessatti tunbii arganitti ni ililchu. Wantoonni torban kunneen ijawwan Waaqayyoo kanneen lafa hunda irra nanaannaʼanii ilaalanii dha.”
Ngoba ngubani odelele usuku lwezinto ezincinyane? Ngoba bazathokoza, babone ilitshe lomthofu esandleni sikaZerubhabheli lalawo ayisikhombisa; angamehlo eNkosi, agijima aye le lale emhlabeni wonke.
11 Anis, “Mukkeen ejersaa lamaan karaa mirgaa fi bitaa baattuu ibsaa jiran kunneen maali?” jedheen ergamaa Waaqayyoo sana gaafadhe.
Ngasengiphendula ngathi kuyo: Ziyini lezizihlahla zomhlwathi ezimbili ngakwesokunene soluthi lwesibane langakwesokhohlo kwalo?
12 Ammas ani, “Dameen muka ejersaa lamaan ujummoo warqee lamaan biraa kanneen zayitii warqee gad dhangalaasan kunneen maali!” jedheen isa gaafadhe.
Ngasengiphendula ngokwesibili, ngathi kuyo: Ziyini lezizingatsha ezimbili zezihlahla zomhlwathi ezithi ngempompi ezimbili zegolide zithulule igolide liphume kizo?
13 Innis, “Isaan maal akka taʼan ati hin beektuu?” naan jedhe. Anis, “Yaa gooftaa ko, ani hin beeku” nan jedheen.
Yasikhuluma lami isithi: Kawazi yini ukuthi lezi ziyini? Ngathi: Hatshi, nkosi yami.
14 Kanaafuu inni, “Isaan kunneen warra lamaan akka Gooftaa lafa hundaa tajaajilaniif dibamanii dha” jedhe.
Yasisithi: Laba bangabagcotshiweyo ababili abema ngaseNkosini yomhlaba wonke.
