Zechariah 2

1 And I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a man, and in his hand a measuring line.

Opet podigoh oèi svoje i vidjeh, i gle, èovjek, i u ruci mu uže mjeraèko.

2 And I say, “To where are you going?” And he says to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth and how much its length.”

I rekoh: kuda ideš? A on mi reèe: da izmjerim Jerusalim da vidim kolika mu je širina i kolika mu je dužina.

3 And behold, the messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him,

I gle, anðeo koji govoraše sa mnom izide, i drugi anðeo izide mu na susret.

4 and he says to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem is inhabited [as] open places, From the abundance of man and beast in her midst.

I reèe mu: trèi, govori onom mladiæu i reci: Jerusalimljani æe se naseliti po selima radi mnoštva ljudi i stoke što æe biti u njemu.

5 And I am to her—a declaration of YHWH—A wall of fire all around, And I am for glory in her midst.

I ja æu mu, govori Gospod, biti zid ognjen unaokolo i biæu za slavu usred njega.

6 Behold, and flee from the land of the north, A declaration of YHWH, For as the four winds of the heavens, I have spread you abroad, A declaration of YHWH.

Ej, ej, bježite iz zemlje sjeverne, govori Gospod, jer vas razasuh u èetiri vjetra nebeska, govori Gospod.

7 Behold, Zion, be delivered who are dwelling [with] the daughter of Babylon.

Ej Sione, koji sjediš kod kæeri Vavilonske, izbavi se.

8 For thus said YHWH of Hosts: He has sent Me after glory to the nations who are spoiling you, For he who is coming against you, Is coming against the pupil of His eye.

Jer ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: za slavom posla me k narodima, koji vas oplijeniše; jer ko tièe u vas, tièe u zjenicu oka njegova.

9 For behold, I am waving My hand against them, And they have been a spoil to their servants. And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me.

Jer evo ja æu mahnuti rukom svojom na njih, i biæe plijen slugama svojim, i poznaæete da me je poslao Gospod nad vojskama.

10 Sing, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, For behold, I am coming, and have dwelt in your midst, A declaration of YHWH.

Pjevaj i veseli se, kæeri Sionska, jer evo ja idem i nastavaæu usred tebe, govori Gospod.

11 And many nations have been joined to YHWH in that day, And they have been to Me for a people, And I have dwelt in your midst, And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me to you.

I mnogi æe se narodi prilijepiti ka Gospodu u taj dan, i biæe mi narod, i ja æu nastavati usred tebe, i poznaæeš da me je poslao k tebi Gospod nad vojskama.

12 And YHWH has inherited Judah, His portion on the holy ground, And He has fixed again on Jerusalem.

I Gospod æe naslijediti Judu, svoj dio, u zemlji svetoj, i opet æe izabrati Jerusalim.

13 Hush, all flesh, because of YHWH, For He has been roused up from His holy habitation!”

Neka muèi svako tijelo pred Gospodom, jer usta iz svetoga stana svojega.
