かつ萬軍のヱホバの室にをる祭司に問しめ且豫言者に問しめて言けらく我今まで年久しく爲きたりしごとく尚五月をもて哭きかつ齋戒すべきやと

在昔ヱルサレムおよび周圍の邑々人の住ふありて平安なりし時南の地および平野にも人の住ひをりし時に已往の預言者によりてヱホバの宣ひたりし言を汝ら知ざるや
8 And the word of the Lord was maad to Sacarie, and seide, The Lord of oostis saith these thingis, and spekith,

我かれらをその識ざる諸の國に吹散すべし其後にてこの地は荒て往來する者なきに至らん彼等かく美しき國を荒地となす
