撒迦利亚书 8
1 万军之耶和华的话临到我说：
And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:
2 “万军之耶和华如此说：我为锡安心里极其火热，我为她火热，向她的仇敌发烈怒。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I have been jealous for Sion with a great jealousy, and with a great indignation have I been jealous for her.
3 耶和华如此说：我现在回到锡安，要住在耶路撒冷中。耶路撒冷必称为诚实的城，万军之耶和华的山必称为圣山。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I am returned to Sion, and I will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called The city of truth, and the mountain of the Lord of hosts, The sanctified mountain.
4 万军之耶和华如此说：将来必有年老的男女坐在耶路撒冷街上，因为年纪老迈就手拿拐杖。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem: and every man with his staff in his hand through multitude of days.
5 城中街上必满有男孩女孩玩耍。
And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls, playing in the streets thereof.
6 万军之耶和华如此说：到那日，这事在余剩的民眼中看为希奇，在我眼中也看为希奇吗？这是万军之耶和华说的。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: If it seem hard in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days: shall it be hard in my eyes, saith the Lord of hosts?
7 万军之耶和华如此说：我要从东方从西方救回我的民。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold I will save my people from the land of the east, and from the land of the going down of the sun.
8 我要领他们来，使他们住在耶路撒冷中。他们要作我的子民，我要作他们的 神，都凭诚实和公义。”
And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God in truth and in justice.
9 万军之耶和华如此说：“当建造万军之耶和华的殿，立根基之日的先知所说的话，现在你们听见，应当手里强壮。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Let your hands be strengthened, you that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, in the day that the house of the Lord of hosts was founded, that the temple might be built.
10 那日以先，人得不着雇价，牲畜也是如此；且因敌人的缘故，出入之人不得平安，乃因我使众人互相攻击。
For before those days there was no hire for men, neither was there hire for beasts, neither was there peace to him that came in, nor to him that went out, because of the tribulation: and I let all men go every one against his neighbour.
11 但如今，我待这余剩的民必不像从前。这是万军之耶和华说的。
But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people according to the former days, saith the Lord of hosts.
12 因为他们必平安撒种，葡萄树必结果子，地土必有出产，天也必降甘露。我要使这余剩的民享受这一切的福。
But there shall be the seed of peace: the vine shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew: and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
13 犹大家和以色列家啊，你们从前在列国中怎样成为可咒诅的；照样，我要拯救你们，使人称你们为有福的。你们不要惧怕，手要强壮。”
And it shall come to pass, that as you were a curse among the Gentiles, O house of Juda, and house of Israel: so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing: fear not, let your hands be strengthened.
14 万军之耶和华如此说：“你们列祖惹我发怒的时候，我怎样定意降祸，并不后悔。
For thus saith the Lord of hosts: As I purposed to afflict you, when your fathers had provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord,
15 现在我照样定意施恩与耶路撒冷和犹大家，你们不要惧怕。
And I had no mercy: so turning again I have thought in these days to do good to the house of Juda, and Jerusalem: fear not.
16 你们所当行的是这样：各人与邻舍说话诚实，在城门口按至理判断，使人和睦。
These then are the things, which you shall do: Speak ye truth every one to his neighbour: judge ye truth and judgment of peace in your gates.
17 谁都不可心里谋害邻舍，也不可喜爱起假誓，因为这些事都为我所恨恶。这是耶和华说的。”
And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his friend: and love not a false oath: for all these are the things that I hate, saith the Lord.
18 万军之耶和华的话临到我说：
And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:
19 “万军之耶和华如此说：四月、五月禁食的日子，七月、十月禁食的日子，必变为犹大家欢喜快乐的日子和欢乐的节期；所以你们要喜爱诚实与和平。”
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth shall be to the house of Juda, joy, and gladness, and great solemnities: only love ye truth and peace.
20 万军之耶和华如此说：“将来必有列国的人和多城的居民来到。
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, until people come, and dwell in many cities,
21 这城的居民必到那城，说：‘我们要快去恳求耶和华的恩，寻求万军之耶和华；我也要去。’
And the inhabitants go one to another, saying: Let us go, and entreat the face of the Lord, and let us seek the Lord of hosts: I also will go.
22 必有列邦的人和强国的民来到耶路撒冷寻求万军之耶和华，恳求耶和华的恩。
And many peoples, and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the face of the Lord.
23 万军之耶和华如此说：在那些日子，必有十个人从列国诸族中出来，拉住一个犹大人的衣襟，说：‘我们要与你们同去，因为我们听见 神与你们同在了。’”
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: In those days, wherein ten men of all languages of the Gentiles shall take hold, and shall hold fast the shirt of one that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
