1 B oqor Daariyus sannaddiisii labaad, bishii siddeedaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Berekyaah ina Iddo oo nebigii ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

In the eighth month of the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,

2 R abbigu aad buu awowayaashiin ugu cadhooday.

“The Lord has been very angry with your fathers.

3 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Ii soo noqda, ayuu Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay, oo anna waan idiin soo noqonayaa, ayuu Rabbiga ciidammadu leeyahay.

Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Return to Me,” says the Lord of hosts, “and I will return to you,” says the Lord of hosts.

4 H a ahaanina sidii awowayaashiin oo kale, kuwaasoo ahaa kuwii ay nebiyadii hore ku qayliyeen oo ay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Hadda ka soo noqda jidadkiinna sharka ah iyo falimihiinna sharka ahba, laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Iyagu ima ay maqlin, oo innaba ima ay dhegaysan.

“Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets preached, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Turn now from your evil ways and your evil deeds.”’ But they did not hear nor heed Me,” says the Lord.

5 B al meeye awowayaashiin? Nebiyaduse miyey weligood iska noolaadaan?

“Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?

6 L aakiinse erayadaydii iyo qaynuunnadaydii aan nebiyadii addoommadayda ahaa ku soo amray, sow ma gaadhin awowayaashiin? Oo iyana intay soo noqdeen ayay yidhaahdeen, Rabbiga ciidammadu siduu ku fikiray inuu nagu sameeyo, siday jidadkayagu ahaayeen, iyo siday falimahayagu ahaayeen ayuu nagu sameeyey. Ninkii Dhex Istaagay Geedaha Hadaaska

Yet surely My words and My statutes, Which I commanded My servants the prophets, Did they not overtake your fathers? “So they returned and said: ‘Just as the Lord of hosts determined to do to us, According to our ways and according to our deeds, So He has dealt with us.’”’” Vision of the Horses

7 B oqor Daariyus sannaddiisii labaad, bisheedii kow iyo tobnaad, taasoo ah bisha Shebaad maalinteedii afar iyo labaatanaad ayaa eraygii Rabbigu u yimid Sekaryaah oo ahaa ina Berekyaah ina Iddo oo nebigii ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,

On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet:

8 H abeenkii waxaan arkay oo ii muuqday nin faras xamar ah fuushan, oo wuxuu dhex istaagay geedaha hadaaska la yidhaahdo oo meel hoos leh ku yiil, oo gadaashiisana waxaa joogay fardo kale oo midabkoodu yahay xamar iyo midab dibicyo leh iyo caddaan.

I saw by night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and it stood among the myrtle trees in the hollow; and behind him were horses: red, sorrel, and white.

9 M arkaasaan idhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waa maxay kuwanu? Markaasaa malaggii ila hadlay igu yidhi, Anigaa ku tusi doona waxa kuwanu yihiin.

Then I said, “My lord, what are these?” So the angel who talked with me said to me, “I will show you what they are. ”

10 O o ninkii geedaha hadaaska ah dhex taagnaa ayaa jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Kuwanu waa kuwii Rabbigu u diray inay dhulka hore iyo dib u dhex maraan.

And the man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, “These are the ones whom the Lord has sent to walk to and fro throughout the earth.”

11 O o iyana waxay u jawaabeen malaggii Rabbiga oo geedaha hadaaska ah dhex taagnaa oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Dhulkii hore iyo dibba waannu u dhex marnay, oo bal eeg, dhulkii oo dhammu wuu deggan yahay oo wuu xasilloon yahay.

So they answered the Angel of the Lord, who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, “We have walked to and fro throughout the earth, and behold, all the earth is resting quietly.” The Lord Will Comfort Zion

12 M arkaasaa malaggii Rabbigu jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiga ciidammadow, ilaa goormaadan u naxariisanayn Yeruusaalem iyo magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah, kuwaasoo aad toddobaatan sannadood u cadhaysnayd?

Then the Angel of the Lord answered and said, “O Lord of hosts, how long will You not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which You were angry these seventy years?”

13 M arkaasaa Rabbigu malaggii ila hadlay ugu jawaabay erayo wanaagsan oo qabow.

And the Lord answered the angel who talked to me, with good and comforting words.

14 K olkaasaa malaggii ila hadlay igu yidhi, War qayli, oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu Yeruusaalem iyo Siyoonba waxaan ugu masayrsanahay masayr weyn.

So the angel who spoke with me said to me, “Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “I am zealous for Jerusalem And for Zion with great zeal.

15 O o aad iyo aad baan ugu cadhooday quruumaha iska istareexsan! Waayo, anigoo in yar u cadhaysan ayay sii badiyeen dhibaatadii.

I am exceedingly angry with the nations at ease; For I was a little angry, And they helped— but with evil intent. ”

16 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Yeruusaalem ayaan naxariis kula soo noqday. Oo Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Gurigayga waa laga dhisi doonaa dhexdeeda, oo Yeruusaalem korkeeda waxaa lagu fidin doonaa xadhig qiyaaseed.

‘Therefore thus says the Lord: “I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy; My house shall be built in it,” says the Lord of hosts, “And a surveyor’s line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.”’

17 O o haddana qayli oo waxaad tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Magaalooyinkaygu mar kalay barwaaqo la faafi doonaan, oo Rabbigu mar kaluu Siyoon u qalbi qaboojin doonaa, oo mar kaluu Yeruusaalem dooran doonaa. Afar Gees Iyo Afar Tumaal

“Again proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “My cities shall again spread out through prosperity; The Lord will again comfort Zion, And will again choose Jerusalem.”’” Vision of the Horns

18 O o indhahaygii baan kor u qaaday, oo wax baan fiiriyey, oo waxaan arkay afar gees.

Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were four horns.

19 O o anna waxaan malaggii ila hadlay ku idhi, Waa maxay kuwanu? Oo isna wuxuu iigu jawaabay, Kuwanu waa geesihii kala firdhiyey dadkii dalka Yahuudah iyo dadkii dalka Israa'iil iyo Yeruusaalemba.

And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” So he answered me, “These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”

20 M arkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu i tusay afar tumaal.

Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen.

21 K olkaasaan idhi, Kuwanu maxay u yimaadeen inay sameeyaan? Oo isna wuu hadlay oo wuxuu yidhi, Kuwanu waa geesihii kala firdhiyey dadkii dalka Yahuudah si aan ninna madaxiisa ugu qaadin aawadeed. Laakiinse kuwanu waxay haatan u yimaadeen inay ka argaggixiyaan, oo ay hoos u tuuraan quruumaha geesahooda kor ugu qaaday dalka Yahuudah inay kala firdhiyaan.

And I said, “What are these coming to do?” So he said, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, so that no one could lift up his head; but the craftsmen are coming to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations that lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”
