Zechariah 9

1 The oracle of the word of Yahweh on the land of Hadrach, and, Damascus, shall be the resting-place thereof, —For, Yahweh, hath an eye—to mankind, and to all the tribes of Israel;

Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀. Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa kọjú ìjà sí Hadiraki, Damasku ni yóò sì jẹ́ ibi ìsinmi rẹ̀; nítorí ojú Olúwa ń bẹ lára ènìyàn, àti lára gbogbo ẹ̀yà Israẹli.

2 Moreover also, Hamath, adjoineth thereto, Tyre and Zidon, —because very wise;

Àti Hamati pẹ̀lú yóò ṣe ààlà rẹ̀ Tire àti Sidoni bí o tilẹ̀ ṣe ọlọ́gbọ́n gidigidi.

3 Therefore did Tyre build a stronghold for herself, —and did heap up silver like dust, yea gold, like the mire of the lanes.

Tire sì mọ odi líle fún ara rẹ̀, ó sì kó fàdákà jọ bí eruku, àti wúrà dáradára bí ẹrẹ̀ ìgboro.

4 Lo! My Lord, shall dispossess her, and smite, into the sea, her fortress, —and, she herself, in fire, shall be consumed.

Ṣùgbọ́n, Olúwa yóò kó gbogbo ohun ìní rẹ̀ lọ, yóò sì pa agbára rẹ̀ run ní ojú Òkun, a ó sì fi iná jó o run.

5 Ashkelon, shall see, and fear, Gaza, also, which shall writhe in great anguish, Ekron, also, because abashed is her expectation, —and the king, shall perish, from Gaza, and, Ashkelon, not be inhabited;

Aṣkeloni yóò rí í, yóò sì bẹ̀rù; Gasa pẹ̀lú yóò rí í, yóò sì káàánú gidigidi, àti Ekroni: nítorí tí ìrètí rẹ̀ yóò ṣákì í. Gasa yóò pàdánù ọba rẹ̀, Aṣkeloni yóò sì di ahoro.

6 And there shall be seated a half-breed in Ashdod, —So will I cut off the arrogance of the Philistines;

Ọmọ àlè yóò sì gbé inú Aṣdodu, Èmi yóò sì gé ìgbéraga àwọn Filistini kúrò.

7 And will take away his reeking prey out of his mouth, and his abominations, from between his teeth, but, he that is left, even he, shall belong to our God, —So shall he become as a chief in Judah, and, Ekron, as a Jebusite!

Èmi yóò sì mu ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ kúrò ni ẹnu rẹ̀, àti àwọn ohun èèwọ̀ kúrò láàrín eyín rẹ̀: ṣùgbọ́n àwọn tó ṣẹ́kù yóò jẹ́ tí Ọlọ́run wa, wọn yóò sì jẹ baálẹ̀ ní Juda, àti Ekroni ni yóò rí bí Jebusi.

8 Then will I encamp about my house—against an army, against him that passeth by, and against him that returneth, neither shall an exactor, tread them down any more, —for, now, have I seen with mine own eyes.

Èmi yóò sì dó yí ilẹ̀ mi ká nítorí ogun àwọn tí wọ́n ń wá ohun tí wọn yóò bàjẹ́ kiri, kò sí aninilára tí yóò bori wọn mọ́: nítorí ni ìsinsin yìí ni mo fi ojú ṣọ́ wọn.

9 Exult greatly, O daughter of Zion, Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo! thy king, cometh unto thee, vindicated and victorious, is he, —lowly, and riding upon an ass, yea, upon a colt, a young ass.

Kún fún ayọ̀, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Sioni, hó ìhó ayọ̀, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Jerusalẹmu. Wò ó, ọba rẹ ń bọ̀ wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ: òdodo ni òun, ó sì ní ìgbàlà; ó ní ìrẹ̀lẹ̀, ó sì ń gun kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àní ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.

10 So will he cut off the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the war-bow, shall be cut off, So shall he speak peace to the nations, and, his dominion, shall be from sea to sea, and from the river [Euphrates] to the ends of the earth.

Èmi ó sì gbé kẹ̀kẹ́ kúrò ni Efraimu, àti ẹṣin ogun kúrò ni Jerusalẹmu, a ó sì ṣẹ́ ọrun ogun. Òun yóò sì kéde àlàáfíà sí àwọn kèfèrí. Ìjọba rẹ̀ yóò sì gbilẹ̀ láti Òkun dé Òkun, àti láti odò títí de òpin ayé.

11 As for thee also, —By the blood of thy covenant, have I sent forth thy prisoners out of a pit, wherein is no water.

Ní tìrẹ, nítorí ẹ̀jẹ̀ májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú rẹ, Èmi ó dá àwọn ìgbèkùn rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ kúrò nínú ọ̀gbun.

12 Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope, —Even to-day, do I declare—Double, will I return to thee!

Ẹ padà sínú odi agbára yín, ẹ̀yin òǹdè ti o ni ìrètí: àní lónìí yìí èmi sọ pé, èmi o san án fún ọ ni ìlọ́po méjì.

13 For I have bent for me—Judah, As a bow, have I grasped Ephraim, Thus will I rouse up thy sons, O Zion, against the sons of Greece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty one.

Èmi ó fa Juda le bí mo ṣe fa ọrun mi le, mo sì fi Efraimu kún un, Èmi yóò gbé àwọn ọmọ rẹ ọkùnrin dìde, ìwọ Sioni, sí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin, ìwọ Giriki, mo ṣe ọ́ bí idà alágbára.

14 But, Yahweh, over them, will appear, and forth shall go, as lightning, his arrow, —Yea, My Lord Yahweh, with a horn, will blow, and will move along in the whirlwinds of the south.

Olúwa yóò sì fi ara hàn ní orí wọn; ọfà rẹ̀ yóò sì jáde lọ bí mọ̀nàmọ́ná. Olúwa Olódùmarè yóò sì fọn ìpè, Òun yóò sì lọ nínú atẹ́gùn ìjì gúúsù.

15 Yahweh of hosts, will throw a covering over them, so shall they eat, and trample underfoot sling-stones, and shall drink—shall shout as with wine, —and shall be filled like tossing-bowls, —like the corners of an altar.

Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun yóò dáàbò bò wọ́n; wọn ó sì jẹ ni run, wọn ó sì tẹ òkúta kànnàkànnà mọ́lẹ̀; wọn ó sì mu ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọn bí wáìnì, wọn ó sì kún bí ọpọ́n, wọn ó sì rin ṣinṣin bí àwọn igun pẹpẹ.

16 So will Yahweh their God, save them, on that day. yea, as a flock of sheep, his people, —for [they shall be like] the jewels of a diadem sparkling over his land.

Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn yóò sì gbà wọ́n là ni ọjọ́ náà bí agbo ènìyàn rẹ̀: nítorí wọn ó dàbí àwọn òkúta adé, tí a gbé sókè bí àmì lórí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.

17 For how excellent it is! Yea how beautiful! Corn, shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maidens.

Nítorí oore rẹ̀ tí tóbi tó, ẹwà rẹ̀ sì tí pọ̀! Ọkà yóò mú ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin dárayá, àti ọtí wáìnì tuntun yóò mú àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọbìnrin ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.
