Zechariah 1
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, hath a word of Jehovah been unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
Osmoga mjeseca druge godine Darijeve dođe riječ Jahvina proroku Zahariji, sinu Berekjinu, sinu Idonovu.
2 'Jehovah was wroth against your fathers — wrath!
“Jahve se teško razgnjevio na oce vaše!
3 And thou hast said unto them, Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, turn back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And I turn back unto you, said Jehovah of Hosts.
Zatim im reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Vratite se meni, i ja ću se vratiti vama' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.
4 Ye shall not be as your fathers, To whom the former prophets called, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Turn back I pray you, From your evil ways and from your evil doings, And they did not hearken, Nor attend to Me — an affirmation of Jehovah.
'Ne budite poput svojih otaca koje su pozivali negdašnji proroci.' Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Vratite se sa zlih putova svojih i od zlih djela. Ali oni nisu slušali ni pazili na mene' - govori Jahve.
5 Your fathers — where [are] they? And the prophets — to the age do they live?
Gdje su sad oci vaši? Zar će dovijeka živjeti proroci?
6 Only, My words, and My statutes, That I commanded My servants the prophets, Have they not overtaken your fathers, And they turn back and say: As Jehovah of Hosts designed to do to us, According to our ways, and according to our doings, So He hath done to us?'
Ali moje riječi i odredbe, koje sam naložio slugama svojim prorocima, nisu li stigle vaše oce? Oni se obratiše i priznaše: 'Jahve nad Vojskama učinio je s nama kako bijaše namislio učiniti prema našim putovima i našim djelima.'”
7 On the twenty and fourth day of the eleventh month, (it [is] the month of Sebat, ) in the second year of Darius, hath a word of Jehovah been unto Zechariah, son of Berechiah, son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
Dvadeset i četvrtog dana, jedanaestoga mjeseca, a to je mjesec Šebat, druge godine Darijeve, dođe riječ Jahvina proroku Zahariji, sinu Berekjinu, sinu Idonovu.
8 I have seen by night, and lo, one riding on a red horse, and he is standing between the myrtles that [are] in the shade, and behind him [are] horses, red, bay, and white.
Imao sam noću viđenje. Gle, na riđanu čovjek jaše među mirtama koje imaju duboko korijenje, a iza njega konji riđi, smeđi i bijeli.
9 And I say, 'What [are] these, my lord?' And the messenger who is speaking with me saith unto me, 'I — I do shew thee what these [are].'
Upitah: “Koji su ovi, gospodaru?” Anđeo koji je sa mnom govorio reče mi: “Ja ću ti pokazati koji su.”
10 And the one who is standing between the myrtles doth answer and say, 'These [are] they whom Jehovah hath sent to walk up and down in the land.'
Čovjek koji stajaše među mirtama odgovori: “Ovo su oni koje je poslao Jahve da obilaze zemlju.”
11 And they answer the messenger of Jehovah who is standing between the myrtles, and say, 'We have walked up and down in the land, and lo, all the land is sitting still, and at rest.'
Oni se obratiše anđelu Jahvinu, koji stajaše među mirtama, i kazaše: “Obišli smo zemlju, i gle: sva zemlja počiva i miruje.”
12 And the messenger of Jehovah answereth and saith, 'Jehovah of Hosts! till when dost Thou not pity Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, that Thou hast abhorred these seventy years?'
Tada progovori anđeo Jahvin i reče: “Jahve nad Vojskama, kada ćeš se već jednom smilovati Jeruzalemu i gradovima judejskim na koje se već sedamdeset godina ljuto srdiš?”
13 And Jehovah answereth the messenger, who is speaking with me, good words, comfortable words.
A Jahve anđelu koji je govorio sa mnom odgovori utješnim riječima.
14 And the messenger who is speaking with me, saith unto me, 'Call, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: I have been zealous for Jerusalem, and for Zion [with] great zeal.
I anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom reče mi: “Objavi ovo: 'Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Ljubavlju ljubomornom gorim za Jeruzalem i za Sion,
15 And [with] great wrath I am wroth against the nations who are at ease, For I was a little wroth, and they assisted — for evil.
a velikim gnjevom plamtim na ohole narode, jer kad se ono malo rasrdih, oni prijeđoše mjeru.'
16 Therefore, thus said Jehovah: I have turned to Jerusalem with mercies, My house is built in it, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And a line is stretched over Jerusalem.
Zato ovako govori Jahve: 'Vraćam se Jeruzalemu s milosrđem; opet će u njemu sagraditi Dom moj' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - 'i opet će se u Jeruzalemu protezati uže mjeračko.'
17 Again call, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Again do my cities overflow from good, And Jehovah hath again comforted Zion, And He hath fixed again on Jerusalem.'
I ovo poruči: 'Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Moji će se gradovi opet prelijevati obiljem, i Jahve će utješiti Sion, izabrati Jeruzalem.'”
18 And I lift up mine eyes, and look, and lo, four horns.
Podigoh oči i vidjeh. I gle: četiri roga.
19 And I say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, 'What [are] these?' And he saith unto me, 'These [are] the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.'
Upitah anđela koji je govorio sa mnom: “Što je ovo?” On mi odgovori: “To su rogovi koji su raznijeli Judu, Izraela i Jeruzalem.”
20 And Jehovah doth shew me four artisans.
Onda mi Jahve pokaza četiri kovača.
21 And I say, 'What [are] these coming in to do?' And He speaketh, saying: 'These [are] the horns that have scattered Judah, so that no one hath lifted up his head, and these come in to trouble them, to cast down the horns of the nations who are lifting up a horn against the land of Judah — to scatter it.'
A ja upitah: “Što su došli ovi raditi?” On mi odgovori: “Ono su rogovi koji su raznijeli Judu te se nitko više ne usuđuje dići glavu; a ovi su došli da ih zastraše i da slome rogove narodima koji podizahu rog na zemlju Judinu kako bi je raznijeli.”
