Zechariah 7

1 And it was in year four of Darius the king it came [the] word of Yahweh to Zechariah on [day] four of the month ninth in Kislev.

Et factum est in anno quarto Darii regis, factum est verbum Domini ad Zachariam, in quarta mensis noni, qui est Casleu.

2 And it had sent Beth-el Shar-ezer and Regem-Melech and men his to entreat [the] face of Yahweh.

Et miserunt ad domum Dei Sarasar, et Rogommelech, et viri, qui erant cum eo ad deprecandam faciem Domini:

3 To say to the priests who [belonged] to [the] house of Yahweh of hosts and to the prophets saying ¿ will I weep in the month fifth will I consecrate myself? just as I have done this how many? years.

ut dicerent sacerdotibus domus Domini exercituum, et prophetis loquentes: numquid flendum est mihi in quinto mense, vel sanctificare me debeo, sicut iam feci multis annis?

4 And it came [the] word of Yahweh of hosts to me saying.

Et factum est verbum Domini exercituum ad me, dicens:

5 Say to all [the] people of the land and to the priests saying that you fasted and you mourned in the fifth [month] and in the seventh [month] and this seventy year[s] ¿ really did you fast for me me.

Loquere ad omnem populum terrae, et ad sacerdotes, dicens: Cum ieiunaretis, et plangeretis in quinto et septimo per hos septuaginta annos: numquid ieiunium ieiunastis mihi?

6 And if you eat and if you drink ¿ not [are] you the [ones who] eat and [are] you? the [ones who] drink.

et cum comedistis, et bibistis, numquid non vobis comedistis, et vobismetipsis bibistis?

7 ¿ Not [are] the words which he proclaimed Yahweh by [the] hand of the prophets former when was Jerusalem remaining and at ease and cities its around it and the Negev and the Shephelah [was] remaining.

Numquid non sunt verba, quae locutus est Dominus in manu prophetarum priorum, cum adhuc Ierusalem habitaretur, ut esset opulenta, ipsa et urbes in circuitu eius, et ad Austrum, et in campestribus habitaretur?

8 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Zechariah saying.

Et factum est verbum Domini ad Zachariam, dicens:

9 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts saying justice of faithfulness judge and loyalty and compassion do each with brother his.

Haec ait Dominus exercituum, dicens: Iudicium verum iudicate, et misericordiam, et miserationes facite, unusquisque cum fratre suo.

10 And [the] widow and [the] fatherless [the] sojourner and [the] poor may not you oppress and [the] harm of each brother his may not you plan in heart your.

Et viduam, et pupillum, et advenam, et pauperem nolite calumniari: et malum vir fratri suo non cogitet in corde suo.

11 And they refused to pay attention and they gave a shoulder stubborn and ears their they made heavy from hearing.

Et noluerunt attendere, et averterunt scapulam recedentes, et aures suas aggravaverunt ne audirent.

12 And heart their they made flint from hearing the law and the words which he had sent Yahweh of hosts by spirit his by [the] hand of the prophets former and it was wrath great from with Yahweh of hosts.

Et cor suum posuerunt ut adamantem, ne audirent legem, et verba quae misit Dominus exercituum in spiritu suo per manum prophetarum priorum: et facta est indignatio magna a Domino exercituum.

13 And it was just as he called and not they listened so they called and not I listened he says Yahweh of hosts.

Et factum est sicut locutus est, et non audierunt: sic clamabunt, et non exaudiam, dicit Dominus exercituum.

14 And I will storm away them to all the nations which not they have known them and the land it was desolate behind them from [one who] passes by and from [one who] returns and they made a land of desire into a waste.

Et dispersi eos per omnia regna, quae nesciunt: et terra desolata est ab eis, eo quod non esset transiens et revertens: et posuerunt terram desiderabilem in desertum.
