< Zechariah 9 >

1 The burden of the word of the LORD upon the land of Hadrach, and Damascus [shall be] its resting place: for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward the LORD:
Fetse; miatrek’ an-tane’ i Hadrake mpitofa e Damesèke, ty tsara’ Iehovà; (mitolik’ am’ Iehovà ty fihaino’ ondatio naho ze hene’ fifokoa’Israele; )
2 and Hamath also which bordereth thereon: Tyre and Zidon, because she is very wise.
naho amy Kamate mpiefetse ama’ey; naho amy Tsore vaho amy Tsidone, amy t’ie mahihitse.
3 And Tyre did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
Toe namboatse rova fatratse t’i Tsore le nampitoabotse volafoty hoe deboke naho volamena ki’e hoe fotak’ an-damoke.
4 Behold, the Lord will dispossess her, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
Inao t’ie hampikoahe’ i Talè, havatambia’e mb’ an-driak’ añe ty haozara’e; vaho ho forototoe’ ty afo.
5 Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also, and shall be sore pained; and Ekron, for her expectation shall be ashamed: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
Hahaisake zay ty Askelone vaho hiria-kolitse, hangirifiry ka t’i Azà, naho i Ekrone ty amy fitamà’e nilesay; hihomake ty mpanjaka’ i Azà le tsy ho amam-pimoneñe ty Askelone.
6 And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
Anak’ amontoñe ty hitoboke e Ashdode, vaho haitoako ty fisengea’ o nte-Pilistio.
7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; and he also shall be a remnant for our God: and he shall be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
Hafahako am-bava’e ao ty lio’e naho an-tsifim-pamotsi’e ao o raha mampangorìñeo; fa o sehanga’eo ty ho an’ Andrianañaharen-tika, ie ty hanoeñe mpiaolo e Iehodà ao, vaho hanahake ty nte-Iebose t’i Ekrone.
8 And I will encamp about mine house against the army, that none pass through or return: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.
Hitobe am-­piarikatoha’ i kivohokoy raho ty amo lahindefoñeo, ty amy miary eo naho mibalike vaho tsy hisoroha’ ty mpamorekeke ka, fa ho jilove’ o masokoo henane zao.
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy king cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Mandià taroba ry anak’ampela’ i Tsione, mipoñafa ry anak’ ampela’ Ierosalaime; Hehe te mitotsak’ ama’o ty Mpanjaka’o, Vantan-dre, reketse fandrombahañe, mirèke, mi­ningitse borìke, ambone’ ty fola-bao, ana’ty borìke vave’e.
10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off; and he shall speak peace unto the nations: and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.
Le hapitsoko amy Efraime ty sarete, naho am’ Iero­salaime ty soavala, naho ho pozaheko o fàlen-kotakotakeo; ie hitsara fampilongoañe amo kilakila’ ondatio, vaho hitakatse an-driake ey pak’ an-driak’ añe i fifehea’ey, naho boak’amy Sakay añe pak’ añ’ olo-ty tane toy.
11 As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
Le ihe, ty amy lio’ i fañina ama’oiy, hampiavoteko boak’ an-koboñe tsy aman-drano ao o azo an-drohio.
12 Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
Mimpolia mb’an-drova fatratse mb’ eo, ry mpirohy mitamàñeo; anito ty ho koiheko te hondroheko in-droe o azoo.
13 For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man.
Ampivohoreko hoe te faleko t’Iehodà, atsafeko amy faley ty Efraime; naho ho troboeko o ana’oo ry Tsione, hatreatré’e o ana’oo ry Iavane, ie hampanahafeko amy fibaram-panalolahiy.
14 And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
Ho oniñe ambone’ iereo eo t’Iehovà, naho hihiririñe hoe helatse i ana-pale’ey; ho tiofe’ Iehovà, Talè i antsivay, vaho hijoñe an-tangololahi’ i atimoy.
15 The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine: and they shall be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
Ie harova’ Iehovà’ i Màroy; le hampibotseke iereo handialia o vato-piletseo; hìnoñe iereo naho hiroharoha hoe an-divay; hatsafeñe hoe an-tsoakazo, kotsa hoe an-kotso’ i kitreliy eo.
16 And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted on high over his land.
Handrombake iareo amy andro zay t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo ho lia-rai’ ondati’eo, ho vatosoan-tsabaka’e, mimilemiletse an-tane’e eo.
17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maids.
Akore ty hafanjàka naho hatsomerentsere’ iareo! Hampiraorao o ajalahio ty ampemba naho o somondrarao ty divai-vao.
