Sekaryaah 8

1 Markaasaa Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammadu ii yimid, isagoo leh,

And the word of the Lord of hosts came, saying,

2 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon waxaan ugu qiirooday qiiro aad u weyn, oo waxaan iyada ugu qiirooday cadho weyn.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, I am jealous for Zion with a great jealousy, and with great fury am I jealous for her.

3 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon baan ku soo noqday, oo waxaan degganaan doonaa Yeruusaalem dhexdeeda, oo Yeruusaalem waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Magaaladii runta, oo buurta Rabbiga ciidammadana waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Buurta quduuska ah.

Thus hath said the Lord, I return unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called, The city of truth; and the mount of the Lord of hosts, The holy mount.

4 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Yeruusaalem jidadkeeda waxaa mar kale degganaan doona odayaal iyo habro, nin kasta isagoo gacanta ku haysta ushiisa cimrigiisa weynaaday daraaddiis.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Again shall there sit old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, and every one with his staff in his hand because of their multitude of years.

5 Oo magaalada jidadkeedana waxaa ka buuxi doona wiilal iyo gabdho oo jidadka dhexdooda ku cayaaraya.

And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in her streets.

6 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas hadday yaab ku tahay dadkan kuwooda hadhay, ma yaab bay ku ahaanayaan indhahayga?

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, If it should be marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.

7 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, dadkaygaan ka badbaadin doonaa dalka bari iyo dalka galbeed.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will save my people from the east country and from the country of the setting of the sun;

8 Waanan keeni doonaa, oo Yeruusaalem way dhex degganaan doonaan, oo dadkaygii way noqon doonaan oo anna waxaan noqon doonaa Ilaahooda anoo leh daacadnimo iyo xaqnimo.

And I will bring them [back], that they may dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be unto me for a people, and I will be unto them for a God, in truth and in righteousness.

9 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen, kuwiinna wakhtigan erayadan ka maqla afka nebiyada kuwaasoo joogay maalintii aasaaskii guriga Rabbiga ciidammada, kaasoo ah macbudka, loo dhigay si loo dhiso.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words out of the mouth of the prophets, who [spoke] on the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, when the temple was to be built.

10 Waayo, wakhtigaas ka hor ninna kiro ma lahayn, neefna kiro ma lahayn innaba, oo kii baxay iyo kii galay toona nabadu uma jirin cadowga daraaddiis, waayo, dadka oo dhan nin kasta waxaan ku diray deriskiisa.

For before those days there was no reward for man, nor any reward for beast; and for him that went out or came in there was no peace, because of the oppressor: and I let loose all men, every one against his neighbor.

11 Laakiinse Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haatan dadkan hadhay sidii waagii hore u ahaan maayo.

But now I am no more as in the former days unto the residue of this people, saith the Lord of hosts.

12 Waayo, waxaa jiri doona iniintii nabadda. Geedcanabkuna canabkiisuu dhali doonaa, oo dhulkuna midhihiisuu soo bixin doonaa, oo samooyinkuna sayaxay soo deyn doonaan, oo waxaan ka dhigi doonaa in kuwa dadkan ka hadhay ay waxyaalahan oo dhan dhaxlaan.

For the seed shall be undisturbed; the vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give her production, and the heavens shall give their dew: and I will bestow on the remnant of this people all these things.

13 Dadka dalka Yahuudahow, iyo dadka dalka Israa'iilow, sidaad quruumaha habaar ugu dhex ahaydeen ayaan idiin badbaadin doonaa, oo barako baad ku ahaan doontaan. Ha cabsanina, laakiinse gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen.

And it shall come to pass, that, in the same degree as ye have been a curse among the nations, O house of Judah, and house of Israel, so will I save you and ye shall be a blessing: fear not; let your hands be strong.

14 Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Sidii waagii ay awowayaashiin iiga xanaajiyeen oo aan ugu fikiray inaan iyaga wax xun ku sameeyo, oo aanan taas uga soo noqon,

For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, As I had purposed to do you evil, when your fathers incensed me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I bethought myself not:

15 sidaas oo kale ayaan haatan ku fikiray inaan wax wanaagsan ku sameeyo Yeruusaalem iyo dadka dalka Yahuudah, haddaba ha cabsanina.

So do I again purpose in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear ye not.

16 Idinku waxaad samaysaan waxyaalahan, ninkiin kastaaba deriskiisa run ha kula hadlo, oo waxaad irdihiinna ku naqdaan garsoorid run ah oo nabad keenta,

These are the things that ye shall do, Speak ye the truth every man to his neighbor; [with] truth and the judgment of peace judge ye in your gates;

17 oo midkiinna yuusan qalbiga xumaan ugu fikirin deriskiisa, oo ha jeclaanina dhaar been ah, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxyaalahan oo dhammu waa waxyaalo aan necbahay.

And let none of you think evil in your hearts against his neighbor; and love not a false oath, for all these are what I hate, saith the Lord.

18 Oo waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammada, isagoo leh,

And the word of the Lord of hosts came unto me, saying,

19 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Soonkii bisha afraad iyo soonkii bisha shanaad iyo soonkii bisha toddobaad iyo soonkii bisha tobnaadba waxay dadka dalka Yahuudah u noqon doonaan farxad iyo rayrayn iyo iido lagu rayreeyo, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed jeclaada runta iyo nabadda.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, The fast of the fourth, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth [month], shall become to the house of Judah gladness and joy, and merry festivals: only love ye the truth and peace.

20 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Mar kale waxaa iman doona dadyow iyo kuwo magaalooyin badan deggan.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, [A time] shall yet be! when there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities;

21 Oo magaalo dadka deggan waxay u tegi doonaan dad magaalo kale deggan, oo waxay ku odhan doonaan, Ina keena aynu dhaqsiyo Rabbiga u barinnee, oo aynu Rabbiga ciidammada doondoonnee, oo aniguna waan tegi doonaa.

And the inhabitants of one [city] shall go to another, saying, Let us only go to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I too will likewise go.

22 Dadyow badan iyo quruumo xoog badanuba waxay u soo kici doonaan inay Yeruusaalem ka doondoonaan Rabbiga ciidammada, iyo inay Rabbiga baryaan.

And many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.

23 Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas toban nin oo ka mid ah quruumaha oo dhammu waxay ku dhegi doonaan mid Yuhuud ah darafka dharkiisa, iyagoo leh, Annagu waannu idin raaci doonnaa, waayo, waxaannu maqalnay in Ilaah idinla jiro.

Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, In those days [it shall happen], that ten men out of all the languages of the nations shall take hold—yea, they shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, Let us go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.
