Zechariah 2
1 I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
| فَرَفَعْتُ عَيْنَيَّ وَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ وَبِيَدِهِ حَبْلُ قِيَاسٍ. | ١ |
2 Then I asked, "Where are you going?" He said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what is its length."
| فَقُلْتُ: «إِلَى أَيْنَ أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ؟» فَقَالَ لِي: «لِأَقِيسَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَرَى كَمْ عَرْضُهَا وَكَمْ طُولُهَا». | ٢ |
3 Look, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
| وَإِذَا بِٱلْمَلَاكِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي قَدْ خَرَجَ، وَخَرَجَ مَلَاكٌ آخَرُ لِلِقَائِهِ. | ٣ |
4 and said to him, "Run, speak to this young man, saying, 'Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱجْرِ وَكَلِّمْ هَذَا ٱلْغُلَامَ قَائِلًا: كَٱلْأَعْرَاءِ تُسْكَنُ أُورُشَلِيمُ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ فِيهَا. | ٤ |
5 For I,' says YHWH, 'will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.
| وَأَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَكُونُ لَهَا سُورَ نَارٍ مِنْ حَوْلِهَا، وَأَكُونُ مَجْدًا فِي وَسَطِهَا. | ٥ |
6 Come. Come. Flee from the land of the north,' says YHWH; 'for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,' says YHWH.
| «يَا يَا، ٱهْرُبُوا مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَإِنِّي قَدْ فَرَّقْتُكُمْ كَرِيَاحِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٦ |
7 'Come, Zion. Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.'
| تَنَجَّيْ يَا صِهْيَوْنُ ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ فِي بِنْتِ بَابِلَ، | ٧ |
8 For thus says YHWH of hosts: 'For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of my eye.
| لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: بَعْدَ ٱلْمَجْدِ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَلَبُوكُمْ، لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ يَمَسُّكُمْ يَمَسُّ حَدَقَةَ عَيْنِهِ. | ٨ |
9 For, look, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that YHWH of hosts has sent me.
| لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا أُحَرِّكُ يَدِي عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَكُونُونَ سَلَبًا لِعَبِيدِهِمْ. فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي. | ٩ |
10 Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, look, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you,' says YHWH.
| «تَرَنَّمِي وَٱفْرَحِي يَا بِنْتَ صِهْيَوْنَ، لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا آتِي وَأَسْكُنُ فِي وَسَطِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٠ |
11 Many nations shall join themselves to YHWH in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that YHWH of hosts has sent me to you.
| فَيَتَّصِلُ أُمَمٌ كَثِيرَةٌ بِٱلرَّبِّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَيَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا فَأَسْكُنُ فِي وَسَطِكِ، فَتَعْلَمِينَ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكِ. | ١١ |
12 YHWH will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
| وَٱلرَّبُّ يَرِثُ يَهُوذَا نَصِيبَهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ وَيَخْتَارُ أُورُشَلِيمَ بَعْدُ. | ١٢ |
13 Be silent, all flesh, before YHWH; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation."
| اُسْكُتُوا يَا كُلَّ ٱلْبَشَرِ قُدَّامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱسْتَيْقَظَ مِنْ مَسْكَنِ قُدْسِهِ». | ١٣ |
