Zechariah 8
1 Now this message of the Lord of hosts came to me:
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amo sia: ne iasu, Segalaiama i,
2 The Lord of hosts says: I passionately care for Zion, and I am fiercely protective of her.
“Na da Yelusaleme fidimusa: bagade dadawa: la. Bai Na da Yelusaleme fi dunuma bagade oso dogone asigisa. Na da Yelusaleme fi dunuma asigiba: le, Na da ilia ha lai dunu ilima bagadewane ougi gala.
3 The Lord says, I have returned to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem and Jerusalem will be called, “The City of Truth” and the mountain of the Lord of hosts, “The Holy Mountain.”
Na da Yelusaleme, Na hadigi moilai bai bagade fi ilima buhagili amogai esalumu. Amasea, ilia Yelusalemega Dafawanedafa Moilai bai bagade dio asulimu. Amola Gadodafa Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea goumi, amoma ilia da Hadigidafa Goumi dio asulimu.
4 The Lord of hosts says: Old men and old women will sit again in the squares of Jerusalem, each leaning on a staff because of old age.
Bu enowane, da: i hamoi dunu amola uda da bagadedafa da: i hamoi ba: le, ilia da galiamoga ili ahoabe da Yelusaleme gagoi ganodini esalebe ba: mu.
5 And the streets of the city will be full of boys, and of girls playing in its squares.
Amola bu enowane, logoba: le da dunu mano amola uda mano bagohamedafa da hehedela lafia: lebe ba: mu.
6 The Lord of hosts says: Just because it seems impossible to the remnant of this people in these days, is it also impossible for me? says the Lord of hosts.
Amo hou da Isala: ili fi dunu waha hame bogoi esalebe, ilia hamomu defele hame ba: mu. Be Na da amo hamomu defele gala.
7 The Lord of hosts says: I will rescue my people from the land of the east and the land of the west.
Na da Na fi dunu eno sogega mugululi oule asi, amo gaga: mu.
8 I will bring them and they will live in Jerusalem, and they will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and righteousness.
Na da ili gusudili amola guma: dini amoga lale, bu Yelusaleme amoga esaloma: ne oule misunu. Ilia da Na fi dunu esalumu, amola Na da ilia Gode esalumu. Amola Na da mae fisili, moloidafawane ili ouligimu.
9 The Lord of hosts says: Let your hands be strong, you who hear in these days the words of the prophets spoken when the foundations for the house of the Lord of hosts were laid.
Mae beda: ma! Yelusaleme fi dunu da Na Debolo Diasu bai fa: lalu, balofede dunu da Na waha sia: i liligi dilima sia: i. Amola dilia da amo waha bu naba.
10 For before those days there were no wages for people or animals. No one could go out or return safe from enemies, because I set each against their neighbour.
Amo eso hame doaga: iyawane, dunu da hame gaguiba: le, dunu o ohe hawa: hamomusa: bidi lamu da hamedei ba: i. Amola ha lai dunu bagohameba: le, gaga: su ba: mu da hamedei ba: i. Bai Na da dunu ili gobele gegema: ne hamonesi.
11 But now I will treat the remnant of the people differently from former days, says the Lord of hosts.
Be Isala: ili fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe, ilima Na da wali hou hisu hamonana.
12 Peace will be sown. The vine will bear its fruit and the ground will yield its produce, and the skies will give their dew. I will give the remnant of this people all these things.
Ilia da olofoiwane ilia ha: i manu sagamu. Waini efe da fage legemu, osoboga da ha: i manu heda: mu, amola gibu bagade da sa: imu. Na da amo hahawane dogolegele hou huluane Na fi dunu hame bogoi esalebe, ilima hamomu.
13 Just as you were accursed among the nations, house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you and you will be a blessing. Do not be afraid, but let your hands be strong.
Yuda dunu amola Isala: ili dunu! Musa: ga fi dunu da eno enoia amane gagabusu aligima: ne ilegele sia: i, ‘Gugunufinisisu hou amo da Yuda amola Isala: ili fi ilima doaga: i da dilima doaga: ma: ne ninia da ilegesa.’ Be Na da dili gaga: mu. Amasea, amo ga fi dunu da eno enoia amane sia: mu, ‘Hahawane dogolegele hou amo da Yuda amola Isala: ili fi ilima doaga: i, amo defele dilima doaga: mu da defea.’ Amaiba: le, dilia dogo denesini, mae beda: ma!”
14 For the Lord of hosts says: As I planned to do evil to you when your ancestors provoked me to anger, says the Lord of hosts, and I did not relent,
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Dilia aowalalia da Na ougima: ne hamobeba: le, Na da ili wadela: lesima: ne ilegei. Amola Na asigi dawa: su mae afadenene, dafawane amo ilegei hamoi dagoi.
15 so again have I planned in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Do not be afraid.
Be wali Na da Yelusaleme fi amola Yuda fi ilima hahawane dogolegele ima: ne ilegelala. Amaiba: le, mae beda: ma!
16 These are the things that you should do: Speak the truth to each other. Render peaceful decisions in your gates.
Dilia amo hou agoane hamoma; ‘Eno enoma dafawane sia: fawane sia: ma! Fofada: su diasu ganodini, moloidafa hou (hou amo da olofosu iaha) amo fawane hamoma.
17 Let none of you devise evil in your heart against one another. Do not love perjury. All these are things I hate, says the Lord.
Dilia eno enoma se imunusa: mae ilegema. Dilia fofada: su ganodini, ilegele sia: sea, ogogosu sia: mae sia: ma. Na da ogogosu amola moloi hame hou amola gegene nimi dasu hou huluane bagade higasa.’”
18 And this message of the Lord of hosts came to me:
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da Segalaiama amane sia: ne i,
19 The Lord of hosts says: The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, will be festivals of joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts for the house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.
“Ha: i mae nawene gilisisu dilia da oubi biyadu amola bi amola fesu amola nabu amoga hamosa, amo Na da afadenene Yuda dunu ilia nodone hahawane lolo nasu bu hamomu. Dilia asigi hou, dafawane hou amola olofosu hou amo hanama!”
20 The Lord of hosts says: Peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities will come,
Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa, “Eso da mana, amoga ga fi dunu amo da moilai bai bagade bagohame amoga esalebe da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega misunu.
21 and the inhabitants of one city will go to another, saying, ‘Let us go speedily to entreat the favour of the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts; I will go also.’
Moilai bai bagade dunu eno da moilai bai bagade dunu enoma amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodone sia: ne gadoma: ne amola Ea hahawane dogolegele fidisu hogole ba: ma: ne masunu. Nini ahoa: di! Misa!’
22 Many peoples and strong nations will come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favour of the Lord.
Fifi asi gala bagohame ilia dunu amola gasa bagade fifi asi gala fi dunu ilia da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: amola Ema Ea hahawane dogolegele fidisu edegema: ne, Yelusalemema misunu.
23 The Lord of hosts says: In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’
Amo esoha, ga fi dunu nabuane gala da Yu dunu afae amoma misini, ema amane sia: mu, ‘Ninia dima hobea misunu hou amo gilisili ba: mu hanai gala. Bai Gode da dili esala, amo sia: be ninia nabi dagoi.’”
