< Zechariah 2 >

1 In sie pac aruruma nga liye mwet se sruok ah in srikasrak soko inpaol.
I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
2 Nga siyuk, “Kom ac som nu ya?” Ac el fahk, “Nga ac som in srikeya acn Jerusalem, ngan konauk lusa ac sralapa.”
Then I asked, "Where are you going?" He said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what is its length."
3 Na nga liye lipufan se ma tuh kaskas nu sik meet ah fahsryak, ac sie pac lipufan tuku in osun nu sel.
Look, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
4 Lipufan se meet ah fahk nu sin ma se ngia, “Kasrusr ac fahk nu sin mwet fusr se ma sruok ah in srikasrak soko ingo, lah ac mau arulana pukanten mwet ac oayapa ma orakrak in acn Jerusalem, pwanang ac arulana yokla acn ma enenu in kuhlusyukyak.
and said to him, "Run, speak to this young man, saying, 'Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
5 LEUM GOD El wulema mu El sifacna ac fah sie kalkal e in rauneak siti sac Elan karinganang, ac tuh El fah muta we in wolana lal nukewa.”
For I,' says the LORD, 'will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.
6 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Tuyak! Tuyak ac kaingla liki acn eir, tuh nga tuh akfahsryekowoselik nu yen nukewa faclu, oana eng akosr lun kusrao.
Come. Come. Flee from the land of the north,' says the LORD; 'for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,' says the LORD.
7 Tuyak, kowos su mwet sruoh in acn Babylonia, ac folokla nu Jerusalem.
'Come, Zion. Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.'
8 Kutena mwet su sringil kowos, el sringil sie ma su arulana saok nu sik.” Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana El supweyume in us kas inge nu sin mutunfacl nukewa su kunauselik mwet lal ac usalik ma lalos:
For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of my eye.
9 “LEUM GOD sifacna El ac fah mweun lain kowos, ac ma lowos ac fah utukelik liki kowos sin mwet su tuh mwet kulansap lowos meet.” Ke pacl se ma inge ac sikyak uh, mwet nukewa ac fah etu lah LEUM GOD Kulana pa supweyume.
For, look, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Jerusalem, kowos on ke engan! Nga ac tuku in muta inmasrlowos!”
Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, look, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you,' says the LORD.
11 In pacl sac mutunfacl puspis ac fah forla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac ekla mwet lal. El ac fah muta inmasrlowos, ac kowos fah etu lah El pa supweyume nu yuruwos.
Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.
12 Na Judah el ac fah sifilpa sie ma na saok sin LEUM GOD in acn mutal sel, ac Jerusalem ac fah siti se su El lungse yohk liki siti nukewa.
The LORD will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
13 Kowos nukewa mislawin ye mutun LEUM GOD, tuh El oatume liki acn mutal sel.
Be silent, all flesh, before the LORD; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation."
