1In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
1Li profeta Zacarías, aßan ralal laj Berequías. Laj Berequías, aßan ralal laj Iddo. Cuakxakib po xcab chihab roquic laj Darío chokß xreyeb laj Persia nak quiâtinac li Dios riqßuin li profeta Zacarías ut quixye re:
2The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
2—Lâin li nimajcual Dios. Cßajoß nak quinjoskßoß riqßuineb lê xeßtônil yucuaß.
3Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
3Joßcan nak tâye reheb lin tenamit nak teßxjal xcßaßux ut teßsukßîk cuiqßuin. Ut lâin chic tincuânk riqßuineb. Lâin li Kâcuaß li nim incuanquil. Xinyehoc re aßin.
4Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD.
4Mêbânu joß queßxbânu lê xeßtônil yucuaß. Eb li profeta li queßcßanjelac chak junxil queßâtinac chak riqßuineb ut queßxye reheb, “Joßcaßin xye li Kâcuaß Dios. Jalomak êcßaßux ut canabomak xbânunquil li mâusilal,” chanqueb. Abanan eb aßan incßaß queßraj rabinquil li cßaßru quinye reheb, chan li Kâcuaß.
5Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
5Ut anakcuan, ¿bar cuanqueb lê xeßtônil yucuaß? Ut, ¿bar cuanqueb lê profeta? ¿Ma yoßyôqueb ta biß chi junelic?
6But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said, Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us.
6Abanan li âtin li quinye quicßulman joß quinye. Quicßulman joß quinye reheb lin profeta re teßxye reheb li tenamit. Queßxcßul li raylal lê xeßtônil yucuaß joß quinye. Joßcan nak queßyotßeß xchßôl ut queßxjal xcßaßuxeb. Queßxye, “Xkacßul ajcuiß li cßaßru quixye chak saß kabên li Kâcuaß li nimajcual Dios joß kacßulub xcßulbal xban li kayehom kabânuhom,” chanqueb.—
7Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
7Li profeta Zacarías, aßan li ralal laj Berequías. Laj Berequías, aßan li ralal laj Iddo. Yô junlaju po xcab chihab roquic chokß rey laj Darío saß li câhib xcaßcßâl xbe li po aßan (Sebat xcßabaß) nak li Kâcuaß quiâtinac cuißchic riqßuin laj Zacarías saß jun li visión.
8I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white.
8Quixye laj Zacarías: —Saß jun li kßojyîn quicßutbesîc jun li visión chicuu xban li Dios. Saß li visión aßan quicuil jun li cuînk cuan chirix jun li cacuây cak rix saß jun li ru takßa. Xakxo rubeleb li cheß mirto. Ut chirix aßan cuanqueb chic nabaleb li cacuây. Cuanqueb cak rixeb. Cuanqueb repex rixeb ut cuanqueb ajcuiß sak rixeb.
9Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be.
9Ut quinpatzß re li ángel li yô chi âtinac cuiqßuin: —Kâcuaß, ¿cßaßru xyâlal aßin li yôquin chirilbal? chanquin. Ut li ángel quichakßoc ut quixye cue: —Lâin tinye âcue lix yâlal li yôcat chirilbal, chan.
10And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.
10Ut li cuînk li cuan chirix li cacuây rubeleb li cheß mirto quiâtinac chak ut quixye cue: —Li cßaßru yôcat chirilbal, aßaneb li queßtaklâc chak xban li Kâcuaß re xsutinquil chixjunil li ruchichßochß, chan.
11And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.
11Ut li cuanqueb chirixeb li cacuây queßxye re lix ángel li Kâcuaß li cuan rubeleb li cheß mirto: —Xkasuti chak chixjunil li ruchichßochß ut xkaqßue retal nak cuanqueb saß xyâlal ut cuanqueb saß tuktûquil usilal, chanqueb.
12Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
12Ut lix ángel li Kâcuaß quixye: —At nimajcual Dios, lajêb xcâcßâl chihab yô âjoskßil saß xbêneb li tenamit Jerusalén ut Judá. ¿Joß najtil chic tâcuânk lâ joskßil saß xbêneb? Ut, ¿jokße tâcuuxtâna ruheb? chan li ángel.
13And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
13Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quichakßoc riqßuin châbil âtin ut li ángel li yô chi âtinac cuiqßuin quicßojla xchßôl chirabinquil li cßaßru quixye li Dios.
14So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
14Ut li ángel quixye cue nak tinye resil li quixye li Dios. Joßcaßin quixye li Dios li kßaxal nim xcuanquil. —Lâin kßaxal cuißchic ninra Jerusalén, lin tenamit Sión.
15And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
15Yô caßchßin injoskßil saß xbêneb lin tenamit. Abanan kßaxal cuißchic yô injoskßil saß xbêneb li tenamit li incßaß nequeßpâban ut cßojcßôqueb xchßôl xjuneseb xban nak kßaxal cuißchic ra xeßxbânu reheb lin tenamit, chan.
16Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
16Joßcan nak li nimajcual Dios quixye: —Tincuuxtâna cuißchic ruheb laj Jerusalén. Tâyîbâk cuißchic li templo ut tâyîbâk ajcuiß chixjunil li tenamit Jerusalén, chan li Dios.
17Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
17Ut quixye ajcuiß cue li ángel: —Tâye ajcuiß resil aßin: Joßcaßin xye li nimajcual Dios. Tinqßue cuißchic chi nabal li cßaßru reheb lin tenamit Jerusalén ut tebincuosobtesi. Chanchan nak toj xinsiqßueb ru chokß cualal incßajol, chan li Dios.
18Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
18Ut quicßutbesîc cuißchic chicuu jun chic li visión. Quicuil câhib li xucub.
19And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
19Ut quinpatzß re li ángel cßaßru xyâlal li câhib chi xucub li yôquin chirilbal. Li ángel quichakßoc ut quixye cue: —Li câhib chi xucub aßin, aßan retalil li câhib chi xnînkal ru tenamit li queßnumta saß xbêneb ut queßxchaßchaßi ruheb lin tenamit Judá, Israel ut Jerusalén, chan.
20And the LORD shewed me four carpenters.
20Ut li Kâcuaß quixcßut chicuu câhib laj tenol chßîchß.Ut lâin quinpatzß re: —¿Cßaßru aj e nak xeßchal eb aßan?— Ut aßan quixye cue: —Li câhib chi xucub, aßaneb retalil li câhib chi xnînkal ru tenamit li queßrahobtesin reheb lin tenamit toj retal nak incßaß chic queßxcuy. Eb laj tenol chßîchß queßchal chixsachbal ruheb li câhib chi xnînkal ru tenamit. Sicsotkeb chic xban xxiuheb nak teßsachekß xban nak queßxchaßchaßi ruheb lin tenamit Judá, chan li Kâcuaß.
21Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it.
21Ut lâin quinpatzß re: —¿Cßaßru aj e nak xeßchal eb aßan?— Ut aßan quixye cue: —Li câhib chi xucub, aßaneb retalil li câhib chi xnînkal ru tenamit li queßrahobtesin reheb lin tenamit toj retal nak incßaß chic queßxcuy. Eb laj tenol chßîchß queßchal chixsachbal ruheb li câhib chi xnînkal ru tenamit. Sicsotkeb chic xban xxiuheb nak teßsachekß xban nak queßxchaßchaßi ruheb lin tenamit Judá, chan li Kâcuaß.
