Zacharias 2
1 And I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
我又舉目觀看，望見有一個人手裏拿著繩墨│。
2 And I said to him, Whither go you? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth of it, and what is the length of it.
我問他說：「你往哪裏去﹖」他回答我說：「我要去測量耶路撒冷，看她有多寬多長。」
3 And, behold, the angel that spoke with me stood [by], and another angel went forth to meet him,
正當那與我談話的使者出來時，另一位使者出來迎上他，
4 and spoke to him, saying, Run and speak to that young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be fully inhabited by reason of the abundance of men and cattle in the midst of her.
他他說：「你跑去告訴那青年人說：耶路撒冷將成為無邊際的區域，因為其中的人畜太多了!
5 And I will be to her, says the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and I will be for a glory in the midst of her.
至於我，我要作她四周的火牆，──上主的斷語──作他中間的榮耀!」
6 Ho, ho, flee from the land of the north, says the Lord: for I will gather you from the four winds of heaven, says the Lord,
快! 快! 你們快從北地逃跑──上主的斷語，因為我要從天下四方聚集你們──上主的斷語。
7 [even] to Sion: deliver yourselves, you that dwell [with] the daughter of Babylon.
住在巴比倫的熙雍，快快逃避，
8 For thus says the Lord Almighty; After the glory has he sent me to the nations that spoiled you: for he that touches you is as one that touches the apple of his eye.
因為那為顯示自己的光榮，派遺我來的萬軍的上主，對那些劫掠你們的異民──因為凡觸動你們的，就是觸勫衪的眼珠──這樣說：
9 For, behold, I bring my hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to them that serve them: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.
看，我只要在你們身上一揮勫我的手，他們便要成為自己奴隸的掠物；如此，你們便知道：是萬軍的上主派遺了我。
10 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Sion: for, behold, I come, and will dwell in the midst of you, says the Lord.
熙雍女子，歡呼喜樂吧! 因為我要來住在你們中間──上主的斷語。
11 And many nations shall flee for refuge to the Lord in that day, and they shall be for a people to him, and they shall dwell in the midst of you: and you shall know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.
在那一天，有許多民族要歸依上主，要成為衪的百姓，並住在你們中間；這樣你們便知道：是萬軍的上主派遺了我到你們這裏來。
12 And the Lord shall inherit Juda his portion in the holy [land], and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
上主必在聖地內佔據猶大作的產業，衪仍要揀選耶路撒冷。
13 Let all flesh fear before the Lord: for he has risen up from his holy clouds.
凡有血肉的，在上主面前應肅靜! 因為衪已由衪的聖所起身。
