1 Astotā mēnesī, Dārija otrā gadā, Tā Kunga vārds notika uz pravieti Zahariju, Bereķijas, Idus dēla, dēlu, sacīdams:
In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of Jehovah came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying,
2 Tas Kungs dusmodamies dusmojies par jūsu tēviem.
Jehovah was greatly displeased with your fathers.
3 Tāpēc saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: atgriežaties atkal pie Manis, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, tad Es atkal griezīšos pie jums, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
Therefore say thou to them, Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Return to me, says Jehovah of hosts, and I will return to you, says Jehovah of hosts.
4 Neesiet kā jūsu tēvi, uz ko tie pirmie pravieši sauca un sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: atgriežaties jel no saviem ļauniem ceļiem un saviem ļauniem darbiem! Bet tie neklausīja un Mani neņēma vērā, saka Tas Kungs.
Be ye not as your fathers, to whom the former prophets cried, saying, Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Return ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings, but they did not hear, nor hearken to me, says Jehovah.
5 Jūsu tēvi, kur tie ir? Un tie pravieši, vai tie var mūžīgi dzīvot?
Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
6 Bet Mani vārdi un Mani likumi, ko Es biju pavēlējis Saviem kalpiem, tiem praviešiem, vai tie nav nākuši pār jūsu tēviem? Tā ka tie atgriezdamies sacīja: tā kā Tas Kungs Cebaot bija nodomājis mums darīt pēc mūsu ceļiem un pēc mūsu darbiem, tā Viņš mums ir darījis.
But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? And they turned and said, Like as Jehovah of hosts thought to do to us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so he has dealt with us.
7 Divdesmit ceturtā dienā, vienpadsmitā mēnesī, tas bija Zebat mēnesis, Dārija otrā gadā, Tā Kunga vārds notika uz pravieti Zahariju, Bereķijas, Idus dēla, dēlu, sacīdams:
Upon the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of Jehovah came to Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying,
8 Es redzēju naktī un raugi, vīrs jāja uz sarkana zirga, un tas stāvēja starp mirtēm ielejā, un aiz viņa bija sarkani, bēri un balti zirgi.
I saw in the night, and, behold, a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom. And behind him there were horses, red, sorrel, and white.
9 Tad es sacīju: mans kungs, kas tie tādi? Un tas eņģelis, kas ar mani runāja, sacīja uz mani: es tev rādīšu, kas šie tādi.
Then I said, O my lord, what are these? And the agent who talked with me said to me, I will show thee what these are.
10 Tad tas vīrs, kas stāvēja starp tām mirtēm, atbildēja un sacīja: šie ir tie, ko Tas Kungs izsūtījis, pārstaigāt zemi.
And the man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom Jehovah has sent to walk to and fro through the earth.
11 Un tie atbildēja Tā Kunga eņģelim, kas stāvēja starp tām mirtēm, un sacīja: mēs zemi esam pārstaigājuši, un redzi, visa zeme ir klusa un mierā.
And they answered the agent of Jehovah who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sits still, and is at rest.
12 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis atbildēja un sacīja: Kungs Cebaot! Cik ilgi Tu neapžēlosies par Jeruzālemi un par Jūda pilsētām, par kurām Tu esi dusmojies šos septiņdesmit gadus?
Then the agent of Jehovah answered and said, O Jehovah of hosts, how long will thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou have had indignation these seventy years?
13 Un Tas Kungs tam eņģelim, kas ar mani runāja, atbildēja labus vārdus, prieka vārdus.
And Jehovah answered the agent who talked with me with good words, comforting words.
14 Un tas eņģelis, kas ar mani runāja, sacīja uz mani: sludini un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Es esmu iekarsis par Jeruzālemi un par Ciānu ar lielu karstumu.
So the agent who talked with me said to me, Cry thou, saying, Thus says Jehovah of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 Un ar lielām dusmām Es dusmojos par tiem drošiem pagāniem, jo Es biju maķenīt dusmīgs, bet tie palīdzēja uz ļaunumu.
And I am very greatly displeased with the nations that are at ease. For I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Tāpēc tā saka Tas Kungs: Es atgriezīšos uz Jeruzālemi ar apžēlošanu, Mans nams tur taps uztaisīts, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, un mēra auklu vilks pār Jeruzālemi.
Therefore thus says Jehovah: I have returned to Jerusalem with mercies. My house shall be built in it, says Jehovah of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
17 Sludini vēl un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Manām pilsētām atkal labi klāsies, jo Tas Kungs atkal iepriecinās Ciānu un atkal izredzēs Jeruzālemi. -
Cry yet again, saying, Thus says Jehovah of hosts: My cities shall yet overflow with prosperity, and Jehovah shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
18 Un es pacēlu savas acis un skatījos, un redzi, tur bija četri ragi.
And I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, four horns.
19 Un es sacīju uz to eņģeli, kas ar mani runāja: kas tie tādi? Un viņš sacīja uz mani: šie ir tie ragi, kas izkaisījuši Jūdu un Israēli un Jeruzālemi.
And I said to the agent who talked with me, What are these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
20 Un Tas Kungs man rādīja četrus kalējus.
And Jehovah showed me four smiths.
21 Tad es sacīju: ko tie nāk darīt? Un viņš runāja un sacīja: še ir tie ragi, kas Jūdu izkaisījuši, tā ka neviens savu galvu nepaceļ, bet šie ir nākuši tos biedināt un nosist zemē ragus tiem pagāniem, kas bija ragu pacēluši pret Jūda zemi, to izkaisīt. -
Then I said, What are these coming to do? And he spoke, saying, These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head. But these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations, which lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.
