Zekaria 4
1 Ndipo malaika aliyekuwa akiongea nami akageuka na kuniamsha kama mtu aamshwavyo usingizini.
Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻae ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa mo au, ʻo ne fafangu au, ʻo hangē ko e fafangu ha taha ʻoku mohe.
2 Akaniuliza, “Unaona nini?” Nikasema, “Ninaona kinara cha taa kimetengenezwa kwa dhahabu tupu, na bakuli juu yake. Kina taa saba juu yake na mirija mmoja kwa kila taa.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate au, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke sio ki ai?” Pea naʻaku pehē ʻeau, “Kuo u sio, pea vakai, ko e tuʻunga maama ko e koula haohaoa pe, mo e ʻaiʻanga lolo ʻi ʻolunga, mo hono tuʻunga maama ʻe fitu ʻi ai, mo e tafeʻanga lolo ʻe fitu ki he tuʻunga maama ʻe fitu, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi hono potu ki ʻolunga:
3 Kando yake kuna mizeituni miwili, mmoja upande wa kulia na mwingine upande wa kushoto.”
Pea ʻoku tuʻu vāofi mo ia ʻae ongo ʻakau ko e ʻolive, ko e taha ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu ʻoe ʻaiʻanga lolo, pea ko e taha ʻi hono potu fakatoʻohema.”
4 Kisha nikamwiliza tena na malaika aliyeongea nami. “Mambo haya yanamaana gani, bwana wangu?”
Ko ia ne u pehēange ai ki he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki ko e hā ʻena?”
5 Naye akanijibu na kusema, Haujui mambo haya yanamaanisha nini?” Nikasema, “ndiyo sijui bwana wangu.”
Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “ʻOku ʻikai te ke ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻae ngaahi meʻa na?” Pea naʻaku pehē, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ʻoku ʻikai.”
6 Hivyo akaniambia, “Hili ni neno la Yahwe kwa Zerubabeli: lisemalo siyo kwa uwezo wala kwa nguvu, lakini ni kwa Roho wangu, asema Yahwe wa majeshi.
Pea toki tali mai ʻe ia ʻo ne pehē kiate au, “Ko eni ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selupepeli, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ko ha meʻa ʻi ha kau tau pe ʻi ha mālohi, ka ʻi hoku Laumālie ʻoʻoku, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.’”
7 U nini wewe, mlima mrefu? Mbele ya Zerubabeli utakuwa tambarare, naye ataondoa jiwe la juu kwa kelele ya 'Neema! Neema kwake!”
Ko hai koe, ʻE moʻunga māʻolunga? ʻE fakalafalafa hifo koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Selupepeli: pea ʻe ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae maka tauʻolunga ki ai ʻi he mavava mo e kalanga, ʻo pehē, “Ke ʻi ai ʻae ʻaloʻofa, ke ʻi ai ʻae ʻaloʻofa.”
8 Neno la Yahwe likanijia kusema,
Naʻe hoko foki ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kiate au, ʻo pehē,
9 “Mikono ya Zerubabeli imeweka misingi ya nyumba hii nayo itaimaliza. Ndipo mtakapojua kuwa Yahwe wa majeshi amenituma kwenu.
“Kuo ʻai ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe fale ni ʻe he nima ʻo Selupepeli; pea ʻe fakaʻosi ia foki ʻe hono nima ʻoʻona, pea te mou ʻilo kuo fekau mai au ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.”
10 Ni nani aliyedharau siku ya mambo madogo? Watu hawa wataona jiwe la kupimia mkononi mwa Zerubabeli, nao watafurahi. (Taa saba ni macho ya Yahwe yanayozunguka duniani mwote.)”
He ko hai kuo ne manuki ki he ʻaho ʻoe meʻa siʻi? He te nau fiefia, mo mamata ki he fua fakatonutonu ʻi he nima ʻo Selupepeli. Pea ko e toko fitu na ko e foʻi fofonga ia ʻe fitu ʻo Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
11 Ndipo nilipomwuliza malaika, Mizeituni hii miwili isimamayo upande wa kushoto na kulia wa kinara cha taa ni nini?”
Pea naʻaku pehēange ai ʻeau kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae ongo ʻakau ʻolive, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he toʻomataʻu ʻoe tuʻunga maama, pea mo hono toʻohema ʻo ia?”
12 Nikauliza kwa mara nyingine tena, “Haya matawi mawili ya mizeituni kando ya mirija miwili ya dhahabu iliyo na mafuta ya dhahabu yanatiririka kutoka ndani yake?
Pea naʻaku toe pehēange ki ai, “Ko e hā ʻae ongo vaʻa ʻolive ʻena, ʻaia ʻoku lilingi atu mei ai ʻae lolo, ʻi hono tafeʻanga koula ʻe ua?”
13 Naye akaniambia, “Hauvijui vitu hivi ni nini?” Nami nikasema, “Hapana, bwana wangu.”
Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia kiate au, “ʻOku ʻikai te ke ʻilo pe ko e hā ʻae ngaahi meʻa na?” Pea ne u pehē, “ʻA hoku ʻeiki ʻoku ʻikai.”
14 Akasema, “Hawa ni wana wa mafuta mabichi ya mizeituni wasimamao mbele ya Bwana wa dunia yote.”
Pea ne toki pehē mai ʻe ia, “Ko e toko ua ʻena kuo pani pea ʻoku na tutuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ʻo māmani kotoa pē.”
