1 ¶ And I turned and lifted up my eyes and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains, and those mountains were of brass.

A ka maranga ake ano oku kanohi, ka kite, na e wha nga hariata e puta mai ana i waenganui o nga maunga e rua; na, ko nga maunga, he maunga parahi.

2 I n the first chariot were red horses and in the second chariot black horses;

I te hariata tuatahi he whero nga hoiho; i te hariata tuarua he mangu nga hoiho;

3 i n the third chariot white horses and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.

I te toru o nga hariata he ma nga hoiho, i te wha o nga hariata he kopurepure, he pakaka nga hoiho.

4 T hen I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What is this, my lord?

Katahi ahau ka oho atu, ka mea ki te anahera i korero ra ki ahau, He aha enei, e toku ariki?

5 A nd the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.

Na ka whakahoki mai te anahera, ka mea ki ahau, Ko nga hau e wha enei o te rangi, e haere mai ana i te tu i te aroaro o te Ariki o te whenua katoa.

6 T he one with the black horses went forth towards the north country, and the white went forth after them, and the grisled went forth toward the south country.

Ko te hariata i nga hoiho mangu, e haere ana ratou ki te whenua i te raki; a i haere nga mea ma i muri i a ratou; na ko nga mea kopurepure i ahu pera ki te whenua ki te tonga.

7 A nd the bay went forth and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth, and he said, Go from here; walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.

I haere atu ano nga mea pakaka, i whai kia haereere, kia kopikopiko ratou i te whenua: na ka mea ia, Haere atu koe, kopikopiko i te whenua. Na kei te kopikopiko ratou i te whenua.

8 T hen he called me and spoke unto me, saying, Behold, those that went toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.

Katahi tera ka karanga ki ahau, ka korero mai hoki ki ahau, ka mea, Nana, ko enei i ahu atu nei ki te whenua ki te raki, kua marie i a ratou toku wairua i te whenua ki te raki.

9 ¶ And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

I puta mai ano te kupu a Ihowa ki ahau, i mea,

10 T ake of those of that returned from the captivity, of the lineage of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, and come thou the same day and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, whom are come from Babylon.

Tangohia ta nga whakarau, ara ta Hererai, ta Topia, ta Ieraia; haere mai ano koe i taua ra, ka tomo ki te whare o Hohia tama a Tepania, ki te whare i tae mai ai ratou i Papurona;

11 T hou shalt take silver and gold and make crowns and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest,

Ae ra, ka tango i ta ratou hiriwa, koura hoki, ka hanga ai i etahi karauna, a ka potae atu ki te mahunga o te tino tohunga, o Hohua tama a Iohereke;

12 a nd speak unto him, saying, Thus spoke the LORD of the 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.

Korero atu hoki ki a ia, mea atu, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, e ki ana, Nana, te tangata ko tona ingoa nei ko te Manga; a ka tupu ake ano ia i tona wahi, a mana e hanga te temepara o Ihowa:

13 H e 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.

Mana rawa e hanga te temepara o Ihowa; a mana e waha te kororia, ka noho hoki ia ka whakahaere tikanga i runga i tona torona; a hei tohunga ia i runga i tona torona: a ka whakaaro ngatahi raua mo te rongo mau.

14 A nd Helem and Tobijah and Jedaiah and Hen the son of Zephaniah shall have crowns for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.

Ka ai hoki nga karauna hei whakamahara ki a Hereme ratou ko Topia, ko Ieraia, ko Hene tama a Tepania, i roto i te temepara o Ihowa.

15 A nd those that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of the hosts has sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass if ye will obediently hear the voice of the LORD our God.

Ka haere mai ano te hunga i tawhiti, ka hanga i roto i te temepara o Ihowa, a ka mohio koutou na Ihowa o nga mano ahau i unga mai ki a koutou. A e puta ano tenei, ki te ata whakarongo koutou ki te reo o Ihowa, o to koutou Atua.
