< Sakalaia 1 >
1 ʻI hono valu ʻoe māhina, mo hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻa Talaiasi, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sakalaia ko e foha ʻo Pelekia, ko e foha ia ʻo Ito, ko e palōfita, ʻo pehē,
Ngenyanga yesificaminwembili, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi, kwafika ilizwi leNkosi kuZekhariya, indodana kaBerekiya, indodana kaIdo umprofethi, lisithi:
2 Kuo mamahi ʻaupito ʻa Sihova ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.
INkosi yabathukuthelela oyihlo ngentukuthelo.
3 Ko ia ke ke pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; ‘Tafoki mai ʻakimoutolu kiate au, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea te u tafoki atu au kiate kimoutolu: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
Ngakho wothi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Phendukelani kimi, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, lami ngizaphendukela kini, itsho iNkosi yamabandla.
4 ʻOua te mou hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻe kalanga ki ai ʻae kau palōfita ʻi muʻa, ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, Tafoki mai ʻanai ni mei homou ngaahi hala kovi, mo hoʻomou ngaahi faianga kovi; ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ongoʻi, pe fanongo kiate au, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
Lingabi njengaboyihlo, abaprofethi bakuqala abamemeza kubo, besithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Ake liphenduke ezindleleni zenu ezimbi lezenzweni zenu ezimbi; kodwa kabezwanga, kabangilalelanga, itsho iNkosi.
5 Ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ko e fē ʻakinautolu? Pea ko e kau palōfita, he ʻoku moʻui ʻakinautolu ke taʻengata?
Oyihlo, bangaphi? Labaprofethi, baphila laphakade yini?
6 Ka ko ʻeku ngaahi lea, mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻaia naʻaku tuku ki he kau palōfita, ʻikai naʻa nau hoko ki hoʻomou ngaahi tamai? Pea naʻa nau foki mai, mo nau pehē, Hangē ko ia naʻe finangalo ʻa Sihova ke fai kiate kitautolu, ʻo fakatatau ki hotau ngaahi hala, pea mo ʻetau ngaahi faianga, ko ia pe kuo ne fai kiate kitautolu.’”
Kodwa amazwi ami lezimiso zami, engakulaya izinceku zami abaprofethi, kakubaficanga oyihlo yini? Basebephenduka bathi: Njengalokhu iNkosi yamabandla yayinakana ukukukwenza kithi, njengokwezindlela zethu lanjengokwezenzo zethu, ngokunjalo yenze kithi.
7 ʻI hono uofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe māhina, ʻae māhina ko Sipate, ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu ʻo Talaiasi, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Sakalaia, ko e foha ʻo Pelekia, ko e foha ʻo Ito, ko e palōfita, ʻo pehē,
Ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lane lwenyanga yetshumi lanye, okuyinyanga uShebati, ngomnyaka wesibili kaDariyusi, lafika ilizwi leNkosi kuZekhariya, indodana kaBerekiya, indodana kaIdo umprofethi, lisithi:
8 Naʻaku mamata ʻi he pō, pea vakai, ko e tangata naʻe heka ki ha hoosi kulokula, pea naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he teleʻa; pea naʻe muimui ʻiate ia ʻae fanga hoosi kulokula, naʻe pulepule mo lavatea.
Ngabona ebusuku, khangela-ke umuntu owayegade ibhiza elibomvu, njalo wayemi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli eziseliweni, lemva kwakhe kwakulamabhiza abomvu, alibhidi, lamhlophe.
9 Pea naʻaku pehē ai, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki, ko hai ʻakinautolu na?” Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “Te u fakahā kiate koe ʻa hono ʻuhinga.
Ngasengisithi: Bayini laba, nkosi yami? Ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yasisithi kimi: Mina ngizakutshengisa ukuthi laba bayini.
10 Pea naʻe tali mai ʻe he tangata, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko kinautolu ʻena kuo fekau atu ʻe Sihova ke feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi māmani.”
Umuntu owayemi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli wasephendula wathi: Laba yibo iNkosi ebathumileyo ukuhamba besiya le lale emhlabeni.
11 Pea naʻe tali ʻekinautolu ki he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻe tuʻu ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ko e maile, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau feʻaluʻaki fano ʻi māmani, pea vakai, ʻoku nofo lelei pe ʻa māmani kotoa pē, pea ʻoku fiemālie.”
Basebephendula ingilosi yeNkosi eyayimi phakathi kwezihlahla zamamiteli, bathi: Sihambile, saya le lale emhlabeni, khangela-ke, wonke umhlaba uhlezi uthule.
12 Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehēange, “ʻE Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻo taʻeʻaloʻofa ki Selūsalema, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, ʻaia kuo ke houhau ki ai ʻi he taʻu ni ʻe fitungofulu?”
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasiphendula yathi: Nkosi yamabandla, koze kube nini wena ungabi lesihawu phezu kweJerusalema laphezu kwemizi yakoJuda, osuyithukuthelele okweminyaka le engamatshumi ayisikhombisa?
13 Pea naʻe tali ʻaki ʻe Sihova ki he ʻāngelo naʻe talanoa mo au, ʻae ngaahi lea lelei mo e ngaahi lea fakafiemālie.
INkosi yasiphendula ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami ngamazwi amahle, amazwi aduduzayo.
14 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai kiate au ʻe he ʻāngelo naʻa ma talanoa, “Kalanga, ʻa koe ʻo pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻoku ou fuaʻa koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema, pea mo Saione ʻi he fuaʻa ʻoku lahi.
Ngakho ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami yathi kimi: Memeza, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Ngilobukhwele ngeJerusalema langeZiyoni ngobukhwele obukhulu.
15 Pea ʻoku ou mamahi ʻaupito ki he ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku fakafiemālie: he naʻe kei siʻi pe ʻeku mamahi ka naʻa nau fakatupu pe ʻae mamahi.
Njalo ngiyathukuthela ngentukuthelo enkulu ngezizwe ezonwabileyo; ngoba mina ngizondile kancinyane, kodwa zona zancedisa ngasebubini.
16 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ai ʻe Sihova; kuo u foki mai mo e ʻaloʻofa ki Selūsalema, ʻe langa hoku fale ʻi ai, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea ʻe falō atu ʻae afo ki Selūsalema.”
Ngalokho, itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngibuyele eJerusalema ngilezihawu; indlu yami izakwakhiwa kuyo, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, lentambo yokulinganisa izakwelulwa phezu kweJerusalema.
17 Toe kalanga foki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; ʻe toe folofolahi atu ʻa hoku ngaahi kolo, ko e meʻa ʻi he monūʻia; pea ʻe toe fakafiemālieʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa Saione, pea te ne toe fili ʻa Selūsalema.”
Phinda umemeze, usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Imizi yami isezasatshalaliswa ngokuhle; njalo iNkosi isezaduduza iZiyoni, isezayikhetha iJerusalema.
18 Pea naʻaku toki hanga hake hoku mata, pea u mamata, pea vakai, ko e nifoʻi ʻulu ʻe fā.
Ngasengiphakamisa amehlo ami, ngabona, khangela-ke, impondo ezine.
19 Pea ne u fehuʻi ki he ʻāngelo, ʻaia naʻa ma talanoa mo au, “Ko e hā ʻena?” ʻAia naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ko e ngaahi nifo ʻena, ʻaia kuo ne fakahēʻi ʻa Siuta, mo ʻIsileli, pea mo Selūsalema.”
Ngasengisithi kuyo ingilosi eyayikhuluma lami: Kuyini lokhu? Yasisithi kimi: Lezi zimpondo ezihlakaze uJuda, uIsrayeli, leJerusalema.
20 Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻae kau tufunga ʻe toko fā.
INkosi yasingitshengisa ingcitshi ezine.
21 Pea naʻaku pehē ai ʻeau, “Kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu ke fai ʻae hā?” Pea ne folofola mai, ʻo pehē, “Ko e ngaahi nifo ʻena ʻaia ne ne fakahēʻi ʻa Siuta, pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai faʻa hanga hake ʻe ha tangata ʻa hono mata: ka kuo haʻu ʻakinautolu na ke maumauʻi ʻakinautolu, mo lī atu kituʻa ʻae ngaahi nifo ʻoe kau Senitaile, ʻakinautolu naʻe hiki hake honau nifo ki he fonua ʻo Siuta, ko hono fakahēʻi.”
Ngasengisithi: Lezi zizekwenzani? Yasikhuluma isithi: Lezi zimpondo ezihlakaze uJuda, kwaze kwangabi lomuntu ophakamisa ikhanda lakhe; kodwa lezi zize ukuzethusa, ukulahla izimpondo zabezizwe, ezaphakamisa uphondo lumelene lelizwe lakoJuda ukulihlakaza.
