Zechariah 1
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Yahweh unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying: —
V osmem mesecu, v drugem letu Dareja, je prišla Gospodova beseda Zahariju, Berehjájevemu sinu, Idójevemu sinu, preroku, rekoč:
2 Yahweh, was sore displeased, with your fathers:
» Gospod je bil ogorčeno nezadovoljen z vašimi očeti.
3 therefore shalt thou say unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Return ye unto me, urgeth Yahweh of hosts, —that I may return unto you, saith Yahweh of hosts.
Zato jim reci: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Obrnite se k meni, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki ›in jaz se bom obrnil k vam, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki.
4 Do not become like your fathers, unto whom the former prophets, proclaimed, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Return, I pray you, from your wicked ways, and from your wicked practices; but they heard not, nor hearkened unto me, declareth Yahweh.
›Ne bodite kakor vaši očetje, h katerim so klicali prejšnji preroki, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Obrnite se sedaj iz svojih zlih poti in od svojih zlih početij, ‹ toda niso poslušali niti mi niso prisluhnili, ‹ govori Gospod.
5 Your fathers, where are they? and, the prophets, to times age-abiding, do they live?
›Vaši očetje, kje so? In preroki, mar večno živijo?
6 Howbeit, as for my words and my statutes with which I charged my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? and so they returned and said, Just as Yahweh of hosts planned to do unto us, according to our ways and according to our practices, So hath he dealt with us?
Toda mar se moje besede in moji zakoni, ki sem jih zapovedal svojim služabnikom prerokom niso prijeli vaših očetov? In pokesali so se ter rekli: ›Kakor nam je Gospod nad bojevniki mislil storiti, glede na naše poti in glede na naša početja, tako je postopal z nami.‹«
7 Upon the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the same, is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Yahweh unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, as followeth:
Na štiriindvajseti dan enajstega meseca, ki je mesec šebát, v drugem letu kralja Dareja, je prišla Gospodova beseda Zahariju, Berehjájevemu sinu, Idójevemu sinu, preroku, rekoč:
8 I looked by night, And lo! a man riding upon a red horse, and he was standing among the myrtle trees, in the shade; and, after him, were horses, red, bay, and white.
»Videl sem ponoči in glej moža, jahajočega na rdečem konju in stal je med mirtinimi drevesi, ki so bila na dnu in za njimi so bili rdeči konji, lisasti in beli.«
9 Then said I, What are these, my lord? And the messenger who was speaking with me, said unto me, I, will shew thee what these, are.
Potem sem rekel: »Oh moj gospod, kdo so ti?« Angel, ki je govoril z menoj, mi je rekel: »Pokazal ti bom kdo so ti.«
10 So the man who was standing among the myrtle-trees responded, and said, —These, are they whom Yahweh, hath sent, to go to and fro through the earth.
Mož, ki je stal med mirtinimi drevesi, je odgovoril in rekel: »To so tisti, ki jih je Gospod poslal, da hodijo sem ter tja po zemlji.«
11 Then responded they to the messenger of Yahweh, who was standing among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have gone to and fro through the earth, —and lo! all the earth, resteth and is quiet.
Odgovorili so Gospodovemu angelu, ki je stal med mirtinimi drevesi in rekli: »Hodili smo sem ter tja po zemlji in glej, vsa zemlja mirno sedi in je pri počitku.«
12 Then the messenger of Yahweh responded, and said, O Yahweh of hosts! How long wilt, thou, not have compassion upon Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, —against which thou hast had indignation these seventy years?
Potem je Gospodov angel odgovoril in rekel: »Oh Gospod nad bojevniki, doklej ne boš imel usmiljenja nad Jeruzalemom in nad Judovimi mesti, zoper katere si imel ogorčenje teh sedemdeset let?«
13 And Yahweh answered the messenger who was speaking with me, in words that were pleasant, —words that were consoling,
Gospod je odgovoril angelu, ki je govoril z menoj, z dobrimi besedami in tolažilnimi besedami.
14 Then the messenger who was speaking with me, said unto me, Proclaim thou, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, I am jealous for Jerusalem, and for Zion, with a great jealousy;
Tako mi je angel, ki je govoril z menoj, rekel: »Kliči, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Ljubosumen sem zaradi Jeruzalema in zaradi Siona z velikim ljubosumjem.
15 And, with a great displeasure, am I displeased with the careless nations, —in that, when, I, was displeased (for) a little, then, they, helped forward the calamity,
Silno sem ogorčeno nezadovoljen s pogani, ki so oholi, kajti bil sem le malo nezadovoljen, oni pa so pomagali, da je stiska napredovala.‹«
16 Wherefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, I have returned to Jerusalem, with compassions, My house, shall be built therein, declareth Yahweh of hosts, and, a line, shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
Zato tako govori Gospod: »Z usmiljenji sem se vrnil k Jeruzalemu. Moja hiša bo zgrajena v njem, « govori Gospod nad bojevniki »in [merilna] vrvica bo raztegnjena nad Jeruzalemom.
17 Further, proclaim thou, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Yet, shall my cities overflow with blessing! So will Yahweh yet, have compassion, upon Zion, and yet make choice of Jerusalem.
Še kliči, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Moja mesta bodo prek blaginje še razširjena naokoli, in Gospod bo še potolažil Sion in bo še izbral Jeruzalem.‹«
18 Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, —and lo! Four Horns.
Potem sem povzdignil svoje oči in videl in glej, štirje rogovi.
19 And I said unto the messenger who was speaking with me, What are these? And he said unto me, These, are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
Rekel sem angelu, ki je govoril z menoj: »Kaj so tile?« Odgovoril mi je: »Ti so rogovi, ki so razkropili Juda, Izraela in Jeruzalem.
20 Then Yahweh shewed me Four Craftsmen.
Gospod mi je pokazal štiri tesarje.
21 And I said, What are these coming in to do? And he spake, saying, These, are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head, but these [others] have come in to put them in fear, to cast down the horns of the nations, the which have lifted up the horn against the land of Judah to scatter her.
Potem sem rekel: »Kaj so ti prišli delat?« Spregovoril je, rekoč: »Ti so rogovi, ki so razkropili Juda, tako da noben človek ni vzdignil svoje glave, toda prišli so, da jih prestrašijo, da odbijejo rogove poganov, ki so svoje rogove povzdignili nad Judovo deželo, da jo razkropijo.«
