Zechariah 6
1 Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.
Megafɔ kɔ dzi, eye mekpɔ tasiaɖam ene wogbɔna tso to eve dome; to siawo le abe akɔbliga ene.
2 In the first chariot were red horses. In the second chariot were black horses.
Sɔ dzĩwo le tasiaɖam gbãtɔ hem, eye sɔ yibɔwo le tasiaɖam evelia hem.
3 In the third chariot were white horses. In the fourth chariot were dappled horses, all of them powerful.
Sɔ ɣiwo le tasiaɖam etɔ̃lia hem, eye sɔ ŋɔŋɔewo le tasiaɖam enelia hem kple ŋusẽ.
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my lord?”
Mebia mawudɔla si nɔ nu ƒom kplim la be, “Nye Aƒetɔ, nu kawoe nye esiawo?”
5 The angel answered me, “These are the four winds of the sky, which go out from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
Eɖo eŋu nam be, “Woawoe nye gbɔgbɔ ene siwo tso dziƒo, wonɔa anyigba la ƒe Aƒetɔ ŋkume ɖaa; ke azɔ la, edɔ wo ɖe dɔgbe.
6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went out toward the south country.”
Tasiaɖam si ŋuti sɔ yibɔwo le la aɖo ta dukɔ si le anyiehe, esi ŋuti sɔ ɣiwo le la ayi ɣetoɖoƒe, eye esi ŋuti wotsi sɔ ŋɔŋɔewo ɖo la ayi dziehe.”
7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth. He said, “Go around and through the earth!” So they walked back and forth through the earth.
Esi sɔ sesẽawo do go la, wodze agbagba be woatsa le anyigba blibo la dzi. Egblɔ be, “Miyi miatsa le anyigba la katã dzi.” Ale woyi ɖatsa le anyigba blibo la dzi.
8 Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, “Behold, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.”
Mawudɔla la yɔm gblɔ nam be, “Kpɔ ɖa, esiwo yi anyiehenyigba dzi la, wotsi nye dɔmedzoe nu le anyiehenyigba la dzi.”
9 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Yehowa ƒe gbe va nam be,
10 “Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
“Xɔ klosalo kple sika le Heldai, Tobiya kple Yedaia, ame siwo gbɔ tso aboyome le Babilonia la si. Yi ɖe Zefania, Yosia ƒe vi hã ƒe aƒe me gbe ma gbe ke.
11 Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
Tsɔ klosalo kple sika la nàwɔ fiakuku, eye nàtsɔe aɖɔ na nunɔlagã Yosua, Yehozadak ƒe vi.
12 and speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies says, “Behold, the man whose name is the Branch! He will grow up out of his place; and he will build the LORD’s temple.
Gblɔ nɛ be ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi. Esiae nye ŋutsu si ƒe ŋkɔe nye Atilɔ, adze tso enɔƒe, eye wòatu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ.
13 He will build the LORD’s temple. He will bear the glory, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne. The counsel of peace will be between them both.
Eyae nye ame si atu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ, woaɖo fianyenye ƒe atsyɔ̃ nɛ, eye wòanɔ eƒe fiazikpui dzi aɖu fia. Anye nunɔla anɔ eƒe fiazikpui dzi, ekema fianyenye kple nunɔlanyenye awɔ ɖeka!
14 The crowns shall be to Helem, to Tobijah, to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the LORD’s temple.
Woatsɔ fiakuku la na Heldai, Tobiya Yedaia kple Hen, Zefania ƒe vi, abe ŋkuɖodzinu ene le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.
15 Those who are far off shall come and build in the LORD’s temple; and you shall know that the LORD of Armies has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God’s voice.”’”
Ame siwo le didiƒe ke la ava, akpe asi ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu ŋu, ekema mianyae be Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae dɔm ɖe mia gbɔ. Esia ava eme nenye be mieɖo to Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe gbe pɛpɛpɛ.”
