¹ Ay ye k'ay boŋo sambu koyne. Ay guna, kal ay di boro fo kaŋ gonda neesiyaŋ korfo nga kamba ra.

¹I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.

² Kal ay ne: «Man no ni ga koy?» A ne ay se: «Ay ma Urusalima neesi se, ay ma di mate kaŋ no a tafayyaŋo, d'a salleyaŋo go d'a.»

²Then 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 Malayka kaŋ in d'a go ga salaŋ din fatta. Malayka fo mo kaa zama nga m'a kubay.

³Behold, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,

⁴ Nga mo ne a se: «Ma zuru ka koy ka salaŋ arwaso din se ka ne: ‹Urusalima ga ciya sanda kawye kaŋ sinda birni cinari, borey da almaney kaŋ go a ra baayaŋ sabbay se.›

⁴and 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 Rabbi ne: Zama ay no ga ciya danji cinari k'a windi, ay ga ciya darza mo a bindo ra.»

⁵For I,’ says Yahweh, ‘will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.

⁶ Rabbi ne: Ay no k'araŋ say-say kuray kulu. Tun, nin wo! ka zuru ka fun azawa kambe haray laabo ra. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.

⁶Come! Come! Flee from the land of the north,’ says Yahweh; ‘for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,’ says Yahweh.

⁷ Tun, nin Sihiyona! ka yana, nin kaŋ goono ga goro Babila ize wayo banda.

⁷‘Come, Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.’

⁸ Zama boro kaŋ n'araŋ ham, bora n'ay mo gura ham. Yaadin no Rabbi ci. Woodin sabbay se no Rabbi Kundeykoyo n'ay donton da nga darza dumi cindey kaŋ yaŋ n'araŋ ku wongu ra din do.

⁸For thus says Yahweh of Armies: ‘For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye.

⁹ A ne mo: Guna, ay g'ay kamba feeni i boŋ. Borey kaŋ se i may din ga ciya i se wongu arzaka. Araŋ ga bay mo kaŋ Rabbi Kundeykoyo no k'ay donton.

⁹For, behold, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me.

¹⁰ Rabbi ne: Ya nin Sihiyona ize wayo, ma doon ka farhã zama guna, ay goono ga kaa ka goro ni bindo ra.

¹⁰Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, behold, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you,’ says Yahweh.

¹¹ Dumi boobo ga ngey boŋ no ay, Rabbi, se han din hane. I ga ciya ay jamayaŋ, ay ga goro ni bindo ra mo. Malayka ne: «Gaa no ni ga bay kaŋ Rabbi Kundeykoyo no k'ay donton ni gaa.

¹¹Many nations shall join themselves to Yahweh in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that Yahweh of Armies has sent me to you.

¹² Rabbi ga Yahuda sambu mo nga baa laabu hananta ra. A ga ye ka Urusalima suuban koyne.

¹²Yahweh will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.

¹³ Ya araŋ fundikooney kulu, wa dangay Rabbi jine, zama a tun nga nangoray hananta ra.»

¹³Be silent, all flesh, before Yahweh; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation!”
