Zachariáš 2
1 Opět pozdvihl jsem očí svých, a uzřel jsem, a aj muž, v jehož ruce byla šnůra míry.
Then I looked up and saw a man with a measuring line/tape.
2 I řekl jsem: Kam jdeš? I řekl mi: Měřiti Jeruzaléma, abych viděl, jak veliká širokost jeho, a jak veliká dlouhost jeho.
I asked him, “Where are you going?” He replied, “[I am going] to measure Jerusalem, to determine how wide it is and how long it is.”
3 A aj, když anděl ten, kterýž mluvil se mnou, vycházel, jiný anděl vycházel jemu vstříc.
Then the angel who had been talking to me started to leave, and another angel walked toward him.
4 A řekl jemu: Běž, mluv k mládenci tomu, řka: Po vsech bydliti budou Jeruzalémští, pro množství lidu a dobytka u prostřed něho.
That other angel said to him, “Run and tell that young man that [some day] there will be very many people and livestock in Jerusalem, with the result that there will be too many to live inside the city walls; many will [live outside] the walls.
5 A já budu, praví Hospodin, jeho zdí ohnivou vůkol, a slávou budu u prostřed něho.
And Yahweh says that he [himself] will be [like] [MET] a wall of fire around [the city], and he will be there with his glory.”
6 Nuže, nuže, utectež již z země půlnoční, praví Hospodin, poněvadž se čtyř stran světa volný průchod učinil jsem vám, praví Hospodin.
Yahweh declares [to the people who were exiled to Babylonia], “Run! Flee from Babylonia [MTY], the country east [of Israel], and flee in all directions from the places where I caused you to be scattered!
7 Nuže, Sione, kterýž přebýváš u dcery Babylonské, vydobuď se.
You people [who previously lived in] Jerusalem and who [now] live in Babylon, flee from there!
8 Nebo takto praví Hospodin zástupů: Po slávě poslal mne proti národům těm, kteříž zloupili vás; nebo kdož se dotýká vás, dotýká se zřítelnice oka mého.
The [armies of the] nations that [attacked you and] took away your valuable possessions have attacked those who are very precious to the Commander of the armies of angels [IDM]. So he says this about me: ‘After I have honored him and sent him to [rebuke] the nations,
9 Nebo aj, já zdvihnu ruku svou proti nim, a budou loupež služebníkům svým, i zvíte, že Hospodin zástupů poslal mne.
[it is as though] I will strike them with my fist, with the result that those who were their slaves will [now] take back their possessions from those who caused them to become slaves.’ And when that happens, you will know that the Commander of the armies of angels is the one who sent me.”
10 Prozpěvuj a vesel se, dcero Sionská; nebo aj, já přijdu a budu bydliti u prostřed tebe, praví Hospodin.
Yahweh says, “[You people of] Jerusalem [APO], shout and be happy, [because] I will be coming [to you] and I will live among you!”
11 I připojí se národové mnozí k Hospodinu v ten den, a budou mým lidem, a budu bydliti u prostřed tebe, i zvíš, že Hospodin zástupů poslal mne k tobě.
At that time, [people of] many nations will be united to Yahweh and will become his people. He will live among [all of] you; and you will know that the Commander of the armies of angels [is the one who] sent me to you.
12 Tehdy dědičně ujme Hospodin Judu, díl svůj, v zemi svaté, a vyvolí zase Jeruzalém.
[The people of] Judah will be a very special part of his sacred country, and Jerusalem will again be the city that he has chosen.
13 Umlkniž všeliké tělo před oblíčejem Hospodinovým, neboť procítí z příbytku svatosti své.
Everyone, [everywhere, ] should be silent in the presence of Yahweh, because he [again] will come [down] from the sacred place where he lives in heaven [to do great things for us].
