زَكَريَّا 2

١ 1 فَرَفَعْتُ عَيْنَيَّ وَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ وَبِيَدِهِ حَبْلُ قِيَاسٍ.

And I lifted up eyes my and I saw and there! a man and [was] in hand his a cord of measurement.

٢ 2 فَقُلْتُ: «إِلَى أَيْنَ أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ؟» فَقَالَ لِي: «لِأَقِيسَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَرَى كَمْ عَرْضُهَا وَكَمْ طُولُهَا».

And I said where? [are] you going and he said to me to measure Jerusalem to see how much? [is] breadth its and how much? [is] length its.

٣ 3 وَإِذَا بِٱلْمَلَاكِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي قَدْ خَرَجَ، وَخَرَجَ مَلَاكٌ آخَرُ لِلِقَائِهِ.

And there! the angel who was speaking with me [was] going out and an angel another [was] going out to meet him.

٤ 4 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱجْرِ وَكَلِّمْ هَذَا ٱلْغُلَامَ قَائِلًا: كَٱلْأَعْرَاءِ تُسْكَنُ أُورُشَلِيمُ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ فِيهَا.

And he said (to him *Q(k)*) run speak to the young man this saying open regions it will remain Jerusalem from [the] multitude of person[s] and livestock in [the] midst of it.

٥ 5 وَأَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَكُونُ لَهَا سُورَ نَارٍ مِنْ حَوْلِهَا، وَأَكُونُ مَجْدًا فِي وَسَطِهَا.

And I I will be to it [the] utterance of Yahweh a wall of fire all around and glory I will become in [the] middle of it.

٦ 6 «يَا يَا، ٱهْرُبُوا مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَإِنِّي قَدْ فَرَّقْتُكُمْ كَرِيَاحِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Alas! alas! flee from [the] land of [the] north [the] utterance of Yahweh that like [the] four [the] winds of the heavens I have scattered you [the] utterance of Yahweh.

٧ 7 تَنَجَّيْ يَا صِهْيَوْنُ ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ فِي بِنْتِ بَابِلَ،

Alas! O Zion escape O inhabitant[s] of [the] daughter of Babylon.

٨ 8 لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: بَعْدَ ٱلْمَجْدِ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَلَبُوكُمْ، لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ يَمَسُّكُمْ يَمَسُّ حَدَقَةَ عَيْنِهِ.

For thus he says Yahweh of hosts after honor he has sent me to the nations who plundered you for the [one who] touches you [is] touching [the] pupil of eye his.

٩ 9 لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا أُحَرِّكُ يَدِي عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَكُونُونَ سَلَبًا لِعَبِيدِهِمْ. فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي.

For here I [am] about to brandish hand my on them and they will be plunder for own slaves their and you will know that Yahweh of hosts he has sent me.

١٠ 10 «تَرَنَّمِي وَٱفْرَحِي يَا بِنْتَ صِهْيَوْنَ، لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا آتِي وَأَسْكُنُ فِي وَسَطِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Shout for joy and rejoice O daughter of Zion for here I [am] about to come and I will dwell in midst of you [the] utterance of Yahweh.

١١ 11 فَيَتَّصِلُ أُمَمٌ كَثِيرَةٌ بِٱلرَّبِّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَيَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا فَأَسْكُنُ فِي وَسَطِكِ، فَتَعْلَمِينَ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكِ.

And they will join themselves nations many to Yahweh in the day that and they will become for me a people and I will dwell in midst of you and you will know that Yahweh of hosts he has sent me to you.

١٢ 12 وَٱلرَّبُّ يَرِثُ يَهُوذَا نَصِيبَهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ وَيَخْتَارُ أُورُشَلِيمَ بَعْدُ.

And he will inherit Yahweh Judah portion his on [the] land of holiness and he will choose again Jerusalem.

١٣ 13 اُسْكُتُوا يَا كُلَّ ٱلْبَشَرِ قُدَّامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱسْتَيْقَظَ مِنْ مَسْكَنِ قُدْسِهِ».

Hush! O all flesh from before Yahweh for he has roused himself from [the] dwelling place of holiness his.
