Zechariah 12
1 Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀. Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa fún Israẹli ni. Olúwa wí, ẹni tí ó na àwọn ọ̀run, tí ó sì fi ìpìlẹ̀ ayé sọlẹ̀, tí ó sì da ẹ̀mí ènìyàn tí ń bẹ ni inú rẹ̀,
A revelation of the LORD’s word concerning Israel: The LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him says:
2 “Kíyèsi í, èmi yóò sọ Jerusalẹmu dí àgọ́ ìwárìrì sí gbogbo ènìyàn yíká, nígbà tí wọn yóò dó ti Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and it will also be on Judah in the siege against Jerusalem.
3 Ní ọjọ́ náà, nígbà tí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé bá parapọ̀ sí i, ni èmi yóò sọ Jerusalẹmu di òkúta ti ko ṣe yí kúrò fún gbogbo ènìyàn, gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá sì fẹ́ yí i ni a ó gé sí wẹ́wẹ́,
It will happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.
4 ní ọjọ́ náà,” ni Olúwa wí, “Ni èmi yóò fi ìdágìrì lu gbogbo ẹṣin, àti fi òmùgọ̀ kọlu ẹni tí ń gun un; èmi yóò sì ṣí ojú mi sí ilé Juda, èmi yóò sì bu ìfọ́jú lu gbogbo ẹṣin tí orílẹ̀-èdè.
In that day,” says the LORD, “I will strike every horse with terror and his rider with madness. I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5 Àti àwọn baálẹ̀ Juda yóò sì wí ni ọkàn wọn pé, ‘Àwọn ara Jerusalẹmu ni agbára mi nípa Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni Ọlọ́run wọn.’
The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of Hosts their God.’
6 “Ní ọjọ́ náà, ni èmi yóò ṣe àwọn baálẹ̀ Juda bí ààrò iná kan láàrín igi, àti bi ẹ̀fúùfù iná láàrín ìtí; wọn yóò sì jẹ gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn run yíká lápá ọ̀tún àti lápá òsì, a ó sì tún máa gbé inú Jerusalẹmu ní ipò rẹ̀.
In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire amongst wood, and like a flaming torch amongst sheaves. They will devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.
7 “Olúwa pẹ̀lú yóò kọ́ tètè gba àgọ́ Juda là ná, kí ògo ilé Dafidi àti ògo àwọn ara Jerusalẹmu má ba gbé ara wọn ga sí Juda.
The LORD also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of David’s house and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.
8 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Olúwa yóò dáàbò bò àwọn tí ń gbé Jerusalẹmu; ẹni tí ó bá sì ṣe àìlera nínú wọn ní ọjọ́ náà, yóò dàbí Dafidi; ilé Dafidi yóò sì dàbí Ọlọ́run, bí angẹli Olúwa níwájú wọn.
In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble amongst them at that day will be like David, and David’s house will be like God, like the LORD’s angel before them.
9 Yóò sì ṣe ni ọjọ́ náà, èmi yóò wá láti pa gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè run tí ó wá kọjú ìjà sí Jerusalẹmu.”
It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 “Èmi ó sì tu ẹ̀mí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ àti ẹ̀bẹ̀ sórí ilé Dafidi àti sórí Jerusalẹmu, wọn ó sì máa wo ẹni tí wọn tí gún ni ọ̀kọ̀, wọn ó sì máa ṣọ̀fọ̀ rẹ̀, bí ẹnìkan ti ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún ọmọ rẹ̀ kan ṣoṣo àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ènìyàn tí wọn yóò sì wà ni ìbànújẹ́, bí ẹni tí ń banújẹ́ fún àkọ́bí rẹ̀.
I will pour on David’s house and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplication. They will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for his firstborn.
11 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni ẹkún, ńlá ńlá yóò wà ni Jerusalẹmu, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀fọ̀ Hadadi Rimoni ni àfonífojì Megido.
In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
12 Ilẹ̀ náà yóò ṣọ̀fọ̀, ìdílé, kọ̀ọ̀kan fun ara rẹ, lọ́tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀; ìdílé Dafidi lọ́tọ̀; àti àwọn aya wọn lọ́tọ̀; ìdílé Natani lọ́tọ̀, àti àwọn aya wọn lọ́tọ́.
The land will mourn, every family apart; the family of David’s house apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 Ìdílé Lefi lọ́tọ̀, àti àwọn aya wọn lọ́tọ̀; ìdílé Ṣimei lọ́tọ̀, àti àwọn aya wọn lọ́tọ̀.
the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;
14 Gbogbo àwọn ìdílé tí o kù, ìdílé, ìdílé, lọ́tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀, àti àwọn aya wọn lọ́tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀.
all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
