Zechariah 6
1 Mo sì yípadà, mo sì gbé ojú mi sókè, mo sì wò, sì kíyèsi i, kẹ̀kẹ́ mẹ́rin jáde wá láti àárín òkè ńlá méjì, àwọn òkè ńlá náà sì jẹ́ òkè ńlá idẹ.
And I turned, and lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains [were] mountains of brass.
2 Àwọn ẹṣin pupa wà ní kẹ̀kẹ́ èkínní; àti àwọn ẹṣin dúdú ní kẹ̀kẹ́ èkejì.
In the first chariot [were] red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3 Àti àwọn ẹṣin funfun ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ̀kẹta; àti àwọn adíkálà àti alágbára ẹṣin ní kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ̀kẹrin.
And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled and bay horses.
4 Mo sì dáhùn, mo sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ angẹli tí ń bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Kí ni ìwọ̀nyí, olúwa mi.”
Then I answered and said to the angel that talked with me, What [are] these, my lord?
5 Angẹli náà si dáhùn ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ẹ̀mí mẹ́rin ti ọ̀run, tí wọn ń lọ kúrò lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n ti fi ara wọn hàn níwájú Olúwa gbogbo ayé.
And the angel answered and said to me, These [are] the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Àwọn ẹṣin dúdú tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ jáde lọ sí ilẹ̀ àríwá; àwọn funfun sì jáde lọ si ìwọ̀-oòrùn; àwọn adíkálà sì jáde lọ sí ìhà ilẹ̀ gúúsù.”
The black horses which [are] therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grizzled go forth towards the south country.
7 Àwọn alágbára ẹṣin sì jáde lọ, wọ́n sì ń wá ọ̀nà àti lọ kí wọn bá a lè rìn síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ni ayé; ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ lọ, ẹ lọ rìn síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ní ayé!” Wọ́n sì rín síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún ní ayé.
And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Go hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8 Nígbà náà ni ohùn kan sì ké sí mi, ó sì bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ wí pé, “Wò ó, àwọn wọ̀nyí tí ó lọ síhà ilẹ̀ àríwá ti mú ẹ̀mí mi parọ́rọ́ ni ilẹ̀ àríwá.”
Then he cried upon me, and spoke to me, saying, Behold, these that go towards the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
9 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá, wí pé:
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
10 “Mú nínú ìgbèkùn, nínú àwọn Heldai, tí Tobiah, àti ti Jedaiah, tí ó ti Babeli dé, kí ìwọ sì wá ní ọjọ́ kan náà, kí o sì wọ ilé Josiah ọmọ Sefaniah lọ.
Take of [them of] the captivity, [even] of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, who are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah;
11 Kí o sì mú fàdákà àti wúrà, kí o sì fi ṣe adé púpọ̀, sì gbé wọn ka orí Joṣua ọmọ Josadaki, olórí àlùfáà.
Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set [them] upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest.
12 Sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ wí pé, wo ọkùnrin náà ti orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Ẹ̀ka; yóò sì yọ ẹ̀ka láti abẹ́ rẹ̀ wá, yóò si kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa wa.
And speak to him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name [is] The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD;
13 Òun ni yóò sì kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa òun ni yóò sì wọ̀ ní ògo, yóò sì jókòó, yóò sì jẹ ọba lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀; òun ó sì jẹ́ àlùfáà lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀; ìmọ̀ àlàáfíà yóò sì wá láàrín àwọn méjèèjì.’
Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne: and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
14 Adé wọ̀nyí yóò sì wà fún Helemu àti fún Tobiah, àti fún Jedaiah, àti fún Heni ọmọ Sefaniah fún ìrántí ni tẹmpili Olúwa.
And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.
15 Àwọn tí ó jìnnà réré yóò wá láti kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti rán mi sí yín. Yóò sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀ bí ẹ̀yin yóò bá gbà ohùn Olúwa, Ọlọ́run yín gbọ́ nítòótọ́.”
And they [that are] far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me to you. And [this] shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
