Sekaryaah 4
1 Oo haddana malaggii ila hadlay ayaa i toosiyey, sidii nin hurdo laga soo toosiyey.
Then the messenger who talked with me came again and woke me, as someone who is woken from sleep.
2 Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, War maxaad aragtaa? Oo aniguna waxaan idhi, Waxaan arkaa oo u jeedaa laambad wada dahab ah, oo maddiibaddeedana iyaday kor sarantahay, oo toddobadeeda laambadood ee yaryarna way kor yaalliin, oo waxaa jira toddobada tuubbo oo ku socota laambad yar oo kasta oo ku kor taal.
He said to me, ‘What do you see?’ I said, ‘I see a candlestick, all of gold, with a bowl on its top, and seven lamps on it. There are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are on its top,
3 Oo agteedana waxaa ku yaal laba geed oo saytuun ah, oo mid wuxuu ku yaal maddiibadda dhankeeda midig, oo kan kalena wuxuu ku yaal maddiibadda dhankeeda bidix.
and two olive trees next to it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on its left side.’
4 Oo anna waan jawaabay oo la hadlay malaggii ila hadlay oo waxaan ku idhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waa maxay kuwanu?
I said to the messenger who talked with me, ‘What are these, my lord?’
5 Markaasaa malaggii ila hadlay jawaabay oo wuxuu igu yidhi, War miyaadan aqoon waxa kuwanu yihiin? Oo anna waxaan ku idhi, Maya, sayidkaygiiyow.
Then the messenger who talked with me answered, ‘Don’t you know what these are?’ And I said. ‘No, my lord.’
6 Markaasuu jawaabay oo ila hadlay, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Kanu waa eraygii Rabbigu u soo diray Serubaabel, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbigii ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Itaal kuma aha, xoogna kuma aha, laakiinse waxay ku tahay ruuxayga.
He said to me, ‘This is the message of the Lord regarding Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of hosts,
7 Buurtan weynay, kumaad tahay? Serubaabel hortiisa waxaad ku noqon doontaa bannaan. Oo isna wuxuu soo bixin doonaa dhagaxa madaxa ah isagoo dhawaaqaya oo leh, Ammaan ha u ahaato, ammaan ha u ahaato.
will I make the great mountain before Zerubbabel a plain. He will bring forth the top stones with shoutings of, “Grace, grace, to it.”’
8 Oo weliba waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga, oo wuxuu igu yidhi,
Moreover this message of the Lord came to me:
9 Serubaabel gacmihiisa ayaa dhigay gurigan aasaaskiisa, oo weliba gacmihiisaa dhammayn doona, oo waxaad ogaan doontaa in Rabbiga ciidammadu ii soo kaa diray.
The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands will also finish it. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you.
10 Waayo, bal yaa quudhsaday maalinta waxyaalaha yaryar? Waayo, iyagu way rayrayn doonaan, oo waxay arki doonaan xadhigga miisaanka oo ku jira gacanta Serubaabel, waana toddobadan oo ah indhihii Rabbiga. Iyagu dhulka oo dhan ayay hore iyo dibba u fiiriyaan.
For who has despised the day of small things? They will rejoice, and will see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. (The seven lamps are the eyes of the Lord that search all around the world.)
11 Markaasaan jawaabay, oo waxaan isagii ku idhi, Waa maxay labadan geed oo saytuunka ah oo ku yaal laambadda dhankeeda midig iyo dhankeeda bidixba?
Again I asked, ‘What are these two olive trees on the right side of the candlestick and on its left side?’
12 Oo haddana mar labaad baan jawaabay oo waxaan ku idhi, Waa maxay labadan laamood oo saytuunka ah oo ku ag yaal labada tuubbo oo dahabka ah oo saliidda dahabka ah iska madhiya?
Again, ‘What are these two branches of the olive trees, which are pouring out the golden oil through the two golden pipes?’
13 Oo isna wuu ii jawaabay oo wuxuu igu yidhi, War miyaadan aqoon waxa kuwanu yihiin? Oo anna waxaan ku idhi, Maya, sayidkaygiiyow.
He answered me, ‘Don’t you now what these are?’ And I said, ‘No, my lord.’
14 Oo isna kolkaasuu igu yidhi, Kuwanu waa labada la subkay oo ag istaaga Sayidka dhulka oo dhan.
Then he explained, ‘They are the two anointed ones who attend the Lord of all the earth.’
