Zacharias 8
1 And the word of the Lord Almighty came, saying,
Markaasaa Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammadu ii yimid, isagoo leh,
2 Thus says the Lord Almighty; I have been jealous for Jerusalem and for Sion with great jealousy, and I have been jealous for her with great fury.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon waxaan ugu qiirooday qiiro aad u weyn, oo waxaan iyada ugu qiirooday cadho weyn.
3 Thus says the Lord; I will return to Sion, and dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a true city, and the mountain of the Lord Almighty a holy mountain.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Siyoon baan ku soo noqday, oo waxaan degganaan doonaa Yeruusaalem dhexdeeda, oo Yeruusaalem waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Magaaladii runta, oo buurta Rabbiga ciidammadana waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Buurta quduuska ah.
4 Thus says the Lord Almighty; There shall yet dwell old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, every one holding his staff in his hand for age.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Yeruusaalem jidadkeeda waxaa mar kale degganaan doona odayaal iyo habro, nin kasta isagoo gacanta ku haysta ushiisa cimrigiisa weynaaday daraaddiis.
5 And the broad places of the city shall be filled with boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
Oo magaalada jidadkeedana waxaa ka buuxi doona wiilal iyo gabdho oo jidadka dhexdooda ku cayaaraya.
6 Thus says the Lord Almighty; If it shall be impossible in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, shall it also be impossible in my sight? says the Lord Almighty.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas hadday yaab ku tahay dadkan kuwooda hadhay, ma yaab bay ku ahaanayaan indhahayga?
7 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Behold, I [will] save my people from the east country, and the west country;
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, dadkaygaan ka badbaadin doonaa dalka bari iyo dalka galbeed.
8 and I will bring them in, and cause [them] to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be to me a people, and I will be to them a God, in truth and in righteousness.
Waanan keeni doonaa, oo Yeruusaalem way dhex degganaan doonaan, oo dadkaygii way noqon doonaan oo anna waxaan noqon doonaa Ilaahooda anoo leh daacadnimo iyo xaqnimo.
9 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Let your hands be strong, [you that] hear in these days these words out of the mouth of the prophets, from the day that the house of the Lord Almighty was founded, and from the time that the temple was built.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen, kuwiinna wakhtigan erayadan ka maqla afka nebiyada kuwaasoo joogay maalintii aasaaskii guriga Rabbiga ciidammada, kaasoo ah macbudka, loo dhigay si loo dhiso.
10 For before those days the wages of men could not be profitable, and there could be no hire of cattle, and there could be no peace by reason of the affliction to him that went out or to him that came in: for I would have let loose all men, every one against his neighbor.
Waayo, wakhtigaas ka hor ninna kiro ma lahayn, neefna kiro ma lahayn innaba, oo kii baxay iyo kii galay toona nabadu uma jirin cadowga daraaddiis, waayo, dadka oo dhan nin kasta waxaan ku diray deriskiisa.
11 But now I [will] not do to the remnant of this people according to the former days, says the Lord Almighty.
Laakiinse Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haatan dadkan hadhay sidii waagii hore u ahaan maayo.
12 But I will show peace: the vine shall yield her fruit, and the land shall yield her produce, and the heaven shall give its dew: and I will give as an inheritance all these things to the remnant of my people.
Waayo, waxaa jiri doona iniintii nabadda. Geedcanabkuna canabkiisuu dhali doonaa, oo dhulkuna midhihiisuu soo bixin doonaa, oo samooyinkuna sayaxay soo deyn doonaan, oo waxaan ka dhigi doonaa in kuwa dadkan ka hadhay ay waxyaalahan oo dhan dhaxlaan.
13 And it shall come to pass, as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Juda, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing: be of good courage, and strengthen your hands.
Dadka dalka Yahuudahow, iyo dadka dalka Israa'iilow, sidaad quruumaha habaar ugu dhex ahaydeen ayaan idiin badbaadin doonaa, oo barako baad ku ahaan doontaan. Ha cabsanina, laakiinse gacmihiinnu xoog ha yeesheen.
14 For thus says the Lord Almighty; As I took counsel to afflict you when your fathers provoked me, says the Lord Almighty, and I repented not:
Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Sidii waagii ay awowayaashiin iiga xanaajiyeen oo aan ugu fikiray inaan iyaga wax xun ku sameeyo, oo aanan taas uga soo noqon,
15 so have I prepared and taken counsel in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Juda: be you of good courage.
sidaas oo kale ayaan haatan ku fikiray inaan wax wanaagsan ku sameeyo Yeruusaalem iyo dadka dalka Yahuudah, haddaba ha cabsanina.
16 These [are] the things which you shall do; speak truth every one with his neighbor; judge truth and peaceful judgment in your gates:
Idinku waxaad samaysaan waxyaalahan, ninkiin kastaaba deriskiisa run ha kula hadlo, oo waxaad irdihiinna ku naqdaan garsoorid run ah oo nabad keenta,
17 and let none of you devise evil in his heart against his neighbor; and love not a false oath: for all these things I hate, says the Lord Almighty.
oo midkiinna yuusan qalbiga xumaan ugu fikirin deriskiisa, oo ha jeclaanina dhaar been ah, waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxyaalahan oo dhammu waa waxyaalo aan necbahay.
18 And the word of the Lord Almighty came to me, saying,
Oo waxaa ii yimid Eraygii Rabbiga ciidammada, isagoo leh,
19 Thus says the Lord Almighty, The fourth fast, and the fifth fast, and the seventh fast, and the tenth fast, shall be to the house of Juda for joy and gladness, and for good feasts; and you shall rejoice; and love you the truth and peace.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Soonkii bisha afraad iyo soonkii bisha shanaad iyo soonkii bisha toddobaad iyo soonkii bisha tobnaadba waxay dadka dalka Yahuudah u noqon doonaan farxad iyo rayrayn iyo iido lagu rayreeyo, haddaba sidaas daraaddeed jeclaada runta iyo nabadda.
20 Thus says the Lord Almighty; Yet shall many peoples come, and the inhabitants of many cities;
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Mar kale waxaa iman doona dadyow iyo kuwo magaalooyin badan deggan.
21 and the inhabitants of five cities shall come together to one city, saying, Let us go to make supplication to the Lord, and to seek the face of the Lord Almighty; I will go also.
Oo magaalo dadka deggan waxay u tegi doonaan dad magaalo kale deggan, oo waxay ku odhan doonaan, Ina keena aynu dhaqsiyo Rabbiga u barinnee, oo aynu Rabbiga ciidammada doondoonnee, oo aniguna waan tegi doonaa.
22 And many peoples and many nations shall come to seek earnestly the face of the Lord Almighty in Jerusalem, and to obtain favor of the Lord.
Dadyow badan iyo quruumo xoog badanuba waxay u soo kici doonaan inay Yeruusaalem ka doondoonaan Rabbiga ciidammada, iyo inay Rabbiga baryaan.
23 Thus says the Lord Almighty; In those days [my word shall be fulfilled] if ten men of all the languages of the nations should take hold—even take hold of the hem of a Jew, saying, We will go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas toban nin oo ka mid ah quruumaha oo dhammu waxay ku dhegi doonaan mid Yuhuud ah darafka dharkiisa, iyagoo leh, Annagu waannu idin raaci doonnaa, waayo, waxaannu maqalnay in Ilaah idinla jiro.
