< Zekaria 13 >
1 Katika siku hiyo kijito kitafunguliwa kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Daudi na wenyeji wa Yerusalemu, kwa ajili ya dhambi na uchafu wao.
ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἔσται πᾶς τόπος διανοιγόμενος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Δαυιδ
2 Katika siku hiyo - asema Yahwe wa majeshi - kwamba nitaondoa majina ya sanamu katika nchi ili kwamba yasikumbukwe tena. Nitawaondoa pia katika nchi manabii wa uongo na roho wao mchafu
καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ λέγει κύριος ἐξολεθρεύσω τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν εἰδώλων ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ οὐκέτι ἔσται αὐτῶν μνεία καὶ τοὺς ψευδοπροφήτας καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἀκάθαρτον ἐξαρῶ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς
3 Ikiwa mtu yeyote ataendelea kutoa unabii, baba yake na mama yake waliomzaa watamwambia, 'Hautaishi, kwa kuwa umenena uongo kwa jina la Yahwe! Ndipo baba na mama waliomzaa watakapomchoma wakati akitabiri.
καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν προφητεύσῃ ἄνθρωπος ἔτι καὶ ἐρεῖ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτόν οὐ ζήσῃ ὅτι ψευδῆ ἐλάλησας ἐπ’ ὀνόματι κυρίου καὶ συμποδιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ οἱ γεννήσαντες αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτόν
4 Katika siku hiyo kila nabii ataonea aibu maono yake aelekeapo kutoa unabii. Manabii hawa hawatavaa tena vazi la singa, ili kuwadanganya watu.
καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καταισχυνθήσονται οἱ προφῆται ἕκαστος ἐκ τῆς ὁράσεως αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν αὐτόν καὶ ἐνδύσονται δέρριν τριχίνην ἀνθ’ ὧν ἐψεύσαντο
5 Kwa maana kila mmoja atasema, 'Mimi siyo nabii! mimi ni mkulima, kwa maana ardhi ndiyo kazi yangu tangu ujana wangu!
καὶ ἐρεῖ οὔκ εἰμι προφήτης ἐγώ διότι ἄνθρωπος ἐργαζόμενος τὴν γῆν ἐγώ εἰμι ὅτι ἄνθρωπος ἐγέννησέν με ἐκ νεότητός μου
6 Lakini mtu mwingine atamwambia, 'Majeraha haya kati ya mikono yako ni ya nini?' naye atajibu, nilijeruhiwa na waliokuwa katika nyumba ya rafiki zangu.”
καὶ ἐρῶ πρὸς αὐτόν τί αἱ πληγαὶ αὗται ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν χειρῶν σου καὶ ἐρεῖ ἃς ἐπλήγην ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῷ ἀγαπητῷ μου
7 Upanga! inuka mwenyewe dhidi ya mchungaji wangu, mtu asimamaye karibu nami - hivi ndivyo asemavyo Yahwe wa majeshi. Mpige mchungaji, na kondoo watatawanyika! Kwa maana nitageuza mkono wangu dhidi ya wadogo.
ῥομφαία ἐξεγέρθητι ἐπὶ τοὺς ποιμένας μου καὶ ἐπ’ ἄνδρα πολίτην μου λέγει κύριος παντοκράτωρ πατάξατε τοὺς ποιμένας καὶ ἐκσπάσατε τὰ πρόβατα καὶ ἐπάξω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς ποιμένας
8 Kisha itakuwa kwamba katika nchi yote - hivi ndivyo asemavyo Yahwe - kwamba theluthi mbili yake itaondolewa! Watu hao wataangamia; theluthi moja tu ndiyo itakayosalia.
καὶ ἔσται ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ λέγει κύριος τὰ δύο μέρη ἐξολεθρευθήσεται καὶ ἐκλείψει τὸ δὲ τρίτον ὑπολειφθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ
9 Nitaipitisha hiyo ya tatu motoni na kuwasafisha kama fedha isafishwavyo; nitawajaribu kama dhahabu ijaribiwavyo. Wataliitia jina langu nami nitawajibu na kusema, 'Hawa ni watu wangu!' nao watasema, Yahwe ndiye Mungu wangu!”
καὶ διάξω τὸ τρίτον διὰ πυρὸς καὶ πυρώσω αὐτούς ὡς πυροῦται τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ δοκιμῶ αὐτούς ὡς δοκιμάζεται τὸ χρυσίον αὐτὸς ἐπικαλέσεται τὸ ὄνομά μου κἀγὼ ἐπακούσομαι αὐτῷ καὶ ἐρῶ λαός μου οὗτός ἐστιν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐρεῖ κύριος ὁ θεός μου
