Zechariah 2
1 And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
我又舉目觀看，望見有一個人手裏拿著繩墨│。
2 And I say, 'Whither are thou going?' And he saith unto me, 'To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth, and how much its length.'
我問他說：「你往哪裏去﹖」他回答我說：「我要去測量耶路撒冷，看她有多寬多長。」
3 And lo, the messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him,
正當那與我談話的使者出來時，另一位使者出來迎上他，
4 and he saith unto him, 'Run, speak unto this young man, saying: Unwalled villages inhabit doth Jerusalem, From the abundance of man and beast in her midst.
他他說：「你跑去告訴那青年人說：耶路撒冷將成為無邊際的區域，因為其中的人畜太多了!
5 And I — I am to her — an affirmation of Jehovah, A wall of fire round about, And for honour I am in her midst.
至於我，我要作她四周的火牆，──上主的斷語──作他中間的榮耀!」
6 Ho, ho, and flee from the land of the north, An affirmation of Jehovah, For, as the four winds of the heavens, I have spread you abroad, An affirmation of Jehovah.
快! 快! 你們快從北地逃跑──上主的斷語，因為我要從天下四方聚集你們──上主的斷語。
7 Ho, Zion, be delivered who art dwelling [with] the daughter of Babylon.
住在巴比倫的熙雍，快快逃避，
8 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: After honour He hath sent me unto the nations who are spoiling you, For he who is coming against you, Is coming against the daughter of His eye.
因為那為顯示自己的光榮，派遺我來的萬軍的上主，對那些劫掠你們的異民──因為凡觸動你們的，就是觸勫衪的眼珠──這樣說：
9 For lo, I am waving my hand against them, And they have been a spoil to their servants. And ye have known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me.
看，我只要在你們身上一揮勫我的手，他們便要成為自己奴隸的掠物；如此，你們便知道：是萬軍的上主派遺了我。
10 Singe, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, For lo, I am coming, and have dwelt in thy midst, An affirmation of Jehovah.
熙雍女子，歡呼喜樂吧! 因為我要來住在你們中間──上主的斷語。
11 And joined have been many nations unto Jehovah in that day, And they have been to Me for a people, And I have dwelt in thy midst, And thou hast known that Jehovah of Hosts hath sent me unto thee.
在那一天，有許多民族要歸依上主，要成為衪的百姓，並住在你們中間；這樣你們便知道：是萬軍的上主派遺了我到你們這裏來。
12 And Jehovah hath inherited Judah, His portion on the holy ground, And He hath fixed again on Jerusalem.
上主必在聖地內佔據猶大作的產業，衪仍要揀選耶路撒冷。
13 Hush, all flesh, because of Jehovah, For He hath been roused up from His holy habitation!'
凡有血肉的，在上主面前應肅靜! 因為衪已由衪的聖所起身。
