< Zacharias 1 >

1 In the eighth month, in the second year of [the reign of] Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying,
Во осмый месяц, втораго лета, при Дарии, бысть слово Господне ко Захарии Варахиину, сыну Аддову, пророку, глаголя:
2 The Lord has been very angry with your fathers.
прогневася Господь на отцы вашя гневом велиим,
3 And you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord Almighty: Turn to me, says the Lord of hosts, and I will turn to you, says the Lord of hosts.
и речеши к ним: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: обратитеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь Сил, и обращуся к вам, глаголет Господь Сил.
4 And be you not as your fathers, whom the prophets before charged, saying, Thus says the Lord Almighty: Turn you from your evil ways, and from your evil practices: but they listened not, and attended not to listen to me, says the Lord.
И не будите, якоже отцы ваши, ихже обличаху пророцы прежнии, глаголюще: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: отвратитеся от путий ваших лукавых и от начинаний ваших злых: и не послушаша и не вняша послушати Мене, глаголет Господь (Вседержитель).
5 Where are your fathers, and the prophets? Will they live for ever?
Отцы ваши где суть и пророцы? Еда во век поживут?
6 But do you receive my words and mine ordinances, all that I command by my Spirit to my servants the prophets, who lived in the days of your fathers; and they answered and said, As the Lord Almighty determined to do to us, according to our ways, and according to our practices, so has he done to us.
Обаче словеса Моя и законы Моя приемлете, елика Аз заповедаю в Дусе Моем рабом Моим пророком, иже постигнуша отцев ваших. И отвещаша и реша: якоже устави Господь Вседержитель сотворити нам по путем нашым и по начинанием нашым, тако сотвори нам.
7 On the twenty-fourth [day] in the eleventh month, this is the month Sabat, in the second year of [the reign of] Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying,
В двадесять четвертый первагонадесять месяца, сей есть месяц Сават, во второе лето, при Дарии, бысть слово Господне ко Захарии Варахиину, сыну Аддову, пророку, глаголя:
8 I saw by night, and behold a man mounted on a red horse, and he stood between the shady mountains; and behind him were red horses, and grey, and piebald, and white.
видех нощию, и се, муж всед на коня рыжа, и сей стояше между горами осеняющими, и за ним кони рыжы и сери, и пестри и бели,
9 And I said, What are these, [my] lord? And the angel spoke with me said to me, I will show you what these [things] are.
и рех: что сии, господи? И рече ко мне Ангел глаголяй во мне: аз покажу ти, что суть сия.
10 And the man that stood between the mountains answered, and said to me, These are [they] whom the Lord has sent forth to go round the earth.
И отвеща муж стояй между горами и рече ко мне: сии суть, ихже посла Господь оыти землю.
11 And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood between the mountains, and said, We have gone round all the earth, and, behold, all the earth is inhabited, and is at rest.
И отвещаша Ангелу Господню стоящему между горами и реша: обыдохом всю землю, и се, вся земля населена есть и молчит.
12 Then the angel of the Lord answered and said, O Lord Almighty, how long will you have no mercy on Jerusalem, and the cities of Juda, which you has disregarded these seventy years?
И отвеща Ангел Господень и рече: Господи Вседержителю, доколе не имаши помиловати Иерусалима и грады Иудовы, яже презрел еси, сие седмьдесятое лето?
13 And the Lord Almighty answered the angel that spoke with me good words and consolatory sayings.
И отвеща Господь Вседержитель Ангелу глаголющему во мне глаголголы добры и словеса утешна.
14 And the angel that spoke with me said to me, Cry out and say, Thus says the Lord Almighty; I have been jealous for Jerusalem and Sion with great jealousy.
И рече ко мне Ангел глаголяй во мне: возопий глаголя: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: ревновах по Иерусалиму и Сиону рвением великим,
15 And I am very angry with the heathen that combine to attack [her]: forasmuch as I indeed was a little angry, but they combined to attack [her] for evil.
и гневом велиим Аз гневаюся на языки нападающыя: зане Аз убо прогневахся мало, они же налегоша во злая.
16 Therefore thus says the Lord: I will return to Jerusalem with compassion; and my house shall be rebuilt in her, says the Lord Almighty, and a measuring line shall yet be stretched out over Jerusalem.
Сего ради сице глаголет Господь: обращуся ко Иерусалиму щедротами, и храм Мой созиждется в нем, глаголет Господь Вседержитель, и мера протягнется во Иерусалиме еще.
17 And the angel that spoke with me said to me, Cry yet, and say, Thus says the Lord Almighty; Yet shall cities be spread abroad through prosperity; and the Lord shall yet have mercy upon Sion, and shall choose Jerusalem.
И рече ко мне Ангел глаголяй во мне: еще возопий глаголя: сице глаголет Господь Вседержитель: еще прелиятися имут гради благими, и помилует Господь еще Сиона и изберет еще Иерусалима.
18 And I lifted up mine eyes and looked, and behold four horns.
И возведох очи мои и видех, и се, четыри рози,
19 And I said to the angel that spoke with me, What are these things, [my] lord? And he said to me, These are the horns that have scattered Juda, and Israel, and Jerusalem.
и рех ко Ангелу глаголющему во мне: что суть сия, господи? И рече ко мне: сии рози расточившии Иуду и Израиля и Иерусалима.
20 And the Lord showed me four artificers.
И показа ми Господь четыри древоделя.
21 And I said, What are these coming to do? And he said, These are the horns that scattered Juda, and they broke Israel in pieces, and none of them lifted up his head: and these are come forth to sharpen them for their hands, [even] the four horns, the nations that lifted up the horn against the land of the Lord to scatter it.
И рех: что сии грядут сотворити, (господи)? И рече: сии рози расточившии Иуду, и Израиля сокрушиша, и никтоже от них воздвиже главы: и изыдоша сии поострити я в руках своих четыри рози, языцы возносящии рог на землю Господню, еже расточити ю.
