< Zechariah 10 >
1 Ẹ béèrè òjò nígbà àrọ̀kúrò ni ọwọ́ Olúwa; Olúwa tí o dá mọ̀nàmọ́ná, tí ó sì fi ọ̀pọ̀ òjò fún ènìyàn, fún olúkúlùkù koríko ní pápá.
Ask ye of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.
2 Nítorí àwọn òrìṣà tí sọ̀rọ̀ asán, àwọn aláfọ̀ṣẹ sì tí rí èké, wọn sì tí rọ àlá èké; wọ́n ń tu ni nínú lásán, nítorí náà àwọn ènìyàn náà ṣáko lọ bí àgùntàn, a ṣẹ wọn níṣẹ̀ẹ́, nítorí Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kò sí.
For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.
3 “Ìbínú mi ru sí àwọn darandaran, èmi o sì jẹ àwọn olórí ní yà nítorí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti bẹ agbo rẹ̀, ilé Juda wò, yóò sì fi wọn ṣe ẹṣin rẹ̀ dáradára ní ogun.
Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.
4 Láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ ni òkúta igun ilé ti jáde wá, láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ ni èèkàn àgọ́ tí wá, láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ ni ọrún ogun tí wá, láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ ni àwọn akóniṣiṣẹ́ gbogbo tí wá.
And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.
5 Gbogbo wọn yóò sì dàbí ọkùnrin alágbára ni ogun tí ń tẹ àwọn ọ̀tá wọn mọ́lẹ̀ ní ìgboro, wọn ó sì jagun, nítorí Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú wọn, wọn ó sì dààmú àwọn tí ń gun ẹṣin.
And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.
6 “Èmi o sì mú ilé Juda ní agbára, èmi o sì gba ilé Josẹfu là, èmi ó sì tún mú wọn padà nítorí mo tí ṣàánú fún wọn, ó sì dàbí ẹni pé èmi kò ì tì í ta wọ́n nù; nítorí èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn, èmi o sì gbọ́ tiwọn
And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.
7 Efraimu yóò sì ṣe bí alágbára, ọkàn wọn yóò sì yọ̀ bi ẹni pé nípa ọtí wáìnì: àní àwọn ọmọ wọn yóò rí í, wọn o sì yọ̀, inú wọn ó sì dùn nínú Olúwa.
And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
8 Èmi ó kọ sí wọn, èmi ó sì ṣà wọ́n jọ; nítorí èmi tí rà wọ́n padà; wọn ó sì pọ̀ sí i gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n tí ń pọ̀ sí í rí.
I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.
9 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé mo tú wọn káàkiri orílẹ̀-èdè: síbẹ̀ wọn ó sì rántí mi ni ilẹ̀ jíjìn; wọn ó sì gbé pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ wọn, wọn ó sì tún padà.
And I will sow them among the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.
10 Èmi ó sì tún mú wọn padà kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti pẹ̀lú, èmi ó sì ṣà wọn jọ kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Asiria. Èmi ó sì mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ Gileadi àti Lebanoni; a kì yóò sì rí ààyè fún wọn bí ó ti yẹ.
And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from among the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.
11 Wọn yóò sì la Òkun wàhálà já, yóò sì bori rírú omi nínú Òkun, gbogbo ibú odò ni yóò sì gbẹ, a ó sì rẹ ìgbéraga Asiria sílẹ̀, ọ̀pá aládé Ejibiti yóò sí lọ kúrò.
And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.
12 Èmi ó sì mú wọn ní agbára nínú Olúwa; wọn ó sì rìn sókè rìn sódò ni orúkọ rẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, saith the Lord.
