Zechariah 2
1 Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, and lo! a Man, —and, in his hand, a Measuring Line.
我又舉目觀看，見一人手拿準繩。
2 And I said, Whither art thou going? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what [should be] the breadth thereof, and what the length thereof.
我說：「你往哪裏去？」他對我說：「要去量耶路撒冷，看有多寬多長。」
3 And lo! the messenger who was talking with me, coming forward, —and another messenger, coming forward to meet him.
與我說話的天使去的時候，又有一位天使迎着他來，
4 So he said unto him, Run, speak unto this young man, saying: Like open villages, shall Jerusalem remain, for the multitude of men and cattle in her midst;
對他說：「你跑去告訴那少年人說，耶路撒冷必有人居住，好像無城牆的鄉村，因為人民和牲畜甚多。
5 And, I, will become to her, declareth Yahweh, A wall of fire round about, —and, a glory, will I become in her midst.
耶和華說：我要作耶路撒冷四圍的火城，並要作其中的榮耀。」
6 Ho! ho! flee ye, therefore, out of the land of the North, urgeth Yahweh. For, as the four winds of the heavens, have I spread you abroad, declareth Yahweh.
耶和華說：「我從前分散你們在天的四方，現在你們要從北方之地逃回。這是耶和華說的。
7 Ho! Zion, deliver thyself, —thou that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon. For,
與巴比倫人同住的錫安民哪，應當逃脫。
8 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, For his own honour, hath he sent me unto the nations that are spoiling you, —Surely, he that toucheth you, toucheth the pupil of mine eye.
萬軍之耶和華說，在顯出榮耀之後，差遣我去懲罰那擄掠你們的列國，摸你們的就是摸他眼中的瞳人。
9 For behold me! brandishing my hand over them, and they shall become a spoil unto their own slaves, —and ye shall know that, Yahweh of hosts, hath sent me.
看哪，我要向他們掄手，他們就必作服事他們之人的擄物，你們便知道萬軍之耶和華差遣我了。
10 Sing out and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, —For behold me! coming in, and I will make my habitation in thy midst, declareth Yahweh.
錫安城啊，應當歡樂歌唱，因為我來要住在你中間。這是耶和華說的。」
11 Then shall many nations, join themselves, unto Yahweh, in that day, and shall become my people, —and I will make my habitation in thy midst, so shalt thou know that, Yahweh of hosts, hath sent me unto thee.
那時，必有許多國歸附耶和華，作他的子民。他要住在你中間，你就知道萬軍之耶和華差遣我到你那裏去了。
12 Thus will Yahweh inherit Judah, his portion, on the soil of the sanctuary, —and make choice, yet again, of Jerusalem.
耶和華必收回猶大作他聖地的分，也必再揀選耶路撒冷。
13 Hush! all flesh, before Yahweh, —For he hath roused himself up out of his holy dwelling.
凡有血氣的都當在耶和華面前靜默無聲；因為他興起，從聖所出來了。
