< Zekaria 9 >
1 Neno: Neno la Bwana liko kinyume na nchi ya Hadraki na Dameski itakuwa mahali pa kupumzika, kwa kuwa macho ya watu na ya kabila zote za Israeli yako kwa Bwana,
The birthun of the word of the Lord, in the lond of Adrach, and of Damask, the reste therof; for `of the Lord is the iye of man, and of alle lynagis of Israel.
2 pia juu ya Hamathi inayopakana nayo, juu ya Tiro na Sidoni, ingawa wana ujuzi mwingi sana.
And Emath in termes therof, and Tirus, and Sidon; for thei token to hem wisdom greetli.
3 Tiro amejijengea ngome imara, amelundika fedha kama mavumbi na dhahabu kama taka za mitaani.
And Tirus bildide his strengthing, and gaderide siluer as erthe, and gold as fen of stretis.
4 Lakini Bwana atamwondolea mali zake na kuuangamiza uwezo wake wa baharini, naye atateketezwa kwa moto.
Lo! the Lord schal welde it, and schal smyte in the see the strengthe therof, and it schal be deuourid bi fier.
5 Ashkeloni ataona hili na kuogopa; Gaza atagaagaa kwa maumivu makali, pia Ekroni, kwa sababu matumaini yake yatanyauka. Gaza atampoteza mfalme wake na Ashkeloni ataachwa pweke.
Ascalon schal see, and schal drede; and Gasa, `and schal sorewe ful myche; and Accaron, for the hope therof is confoundid; and the kyng schal perische fro Gasa, and Ascalon schal not be enhabited;
6 Wageni watakalia mji wa Ashdodi, nami nitakatilia mbali kiburi cha Wafilisti.
and a departere schal sitte in Asotus, and Y schal distrie the pride of Filisteis.
7 Nitaondoa damu vinywani mwao, chakula kile walichokatazwa kati ya meno yao. Mabaki yao yatakuwa mali ya Mungu wetu, nao watakuwa viongozi katika Yuda, naye Ekroni atakuwa kama Wayebusi.
And Y schal take awei the blood therof fro the mouth of him, and abhomynaciouns of hym fro the myddil of teeth of hym, and he also schal be left to our God; and he schal be as a duyk in Juda, and Accaron as Jebusei.
8 Lakini nitailinda nyumba yangu dhidi ya majeshi ya wanyangʼanyi. Kamwe mdhalimu hatashambulia watu wangu tena, kwa maana sasa ninawachunga.
And Y schal cumpasse myn hous of these that holden kniythod to me, and goen, and turnen ayen; and `an vniust axere schal no more passe on hem, for now Y siy with myn iyen.
9 Shangilia sana, ee Binti Sayuni! Piga kelele, Binti Yerusalemu! Tazama, Mfalme wako anakuja kwako, ni mwenye haki, naye ana wokovu, ni mpole, naye amepanda punda, mwana-punda, mtoto wa punda.
Thou douyter of Sion, make ioie withoutforth ynow, synge, thou douyter of Jerusalem; lo! thi kyng schal come to thee, he iust, and sauyour; he pore, and stiynge on a sche asse, and on a fole, sone of a sche asse.
10 Nitaondoa magari ya vita kutoka Efraimu na farasi wa vita kutoka Yerusalemu, nao upinde wa vita utavunjwa. Atatangaza amani kwa mataifa. Utawala wake utaenea kutoka bahari hadi bahari, na kutoka Mto Frati hadi mwisho wa dunia.
And Y schal leese foure horsid carte of Effraym, and an hors of Jerusalem, and the bouwe of batel schal be distried; and he schal speke pees to hethene men, and the power of him schal be fro see til to see, and fro floodis til to the endis of erthe.
11 Kwako wewe, kwa sababu ya damu ya Agano langu nawe, nitawaacha huru wafungwa wako watoke kwenye shimo lisilo na maji.
And thou in blood of thi testament sentist out thi boundun men fro lake, in which is not water.
12 Rudieni ngome yenu, enyi wafungwa wa tumaini; hata sasa ninatangaza kwamba nitawarejesheeni maradufu.
Ye boundun of hope, be conuertid to strengthing; and to dai Y schewynge schal yelde to thee double thingis,
13 Nitampinda Yuda kama nipindavyo upinde wangu, nitamfanya Efraimu mshale wangu. Nitawainua wana wako, ee Sayuni, dhidi ya wana wako, ee Uyunani, na kukufanya kama upanga wa shujaa wa vita.
for Y schal stretche forthe to me Juda as a bowe, Y fillide `the lond of Effraym. And Y schal reise thi sones, thou Sion, on thi sones, thou lond of Grekis, and Y schal sette thee as the swerd of stronge men.
14 Kisha Bwana atawatokea; mshale wake utamulika kama umeme wa radi. Bwana Mwenyezi atapiga tarumbeta, naye atatembea katika tufani za kusini,
And the Lord God schal be seyn on hem, and the dart of him schal go out as leit.
15 na Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote atawalinda. Wataangamiza na kushinda kwa mawe ya kutupa kwa kombeo. Watakunywa na kunguruma kama waliolewa mvinyo; watajaa kama bakuli linalotumika kunyunyizia kwenye pembe za madhabahu.
And the Lord God schal synge in a trumpe, and schal go in whirlwynd of the south; the Lord of oostis schal defende hem, and thei schulen deuoure, and make suget with stoonys of a slynge; and thei drynkynge schulen be fillid as with wyn, and schulen be fillid as viols, and as hornes of the auter.
16 Bwana Mungu wao atawaokoa siku hiyo kama kundi la watu wake. Watangʼara katika nchi yake kama vito vya thamani kwenye taji.
And the Lord God `of hem schal saue hem in that dai, as a floc of his puple, for hooli stoonus schulen be reisid on the lond of hym.
17 Jinsi gani watavutia na kuwa wazuri! Nafaka itawastawisha vijana wanaume, nayo divai mpya vijana wanawake.
For what is the good of hym, and what is the faire of hym, no but whete of chosun men, and wyn buriownynge virgyns?
