Zacarias 2
1 Tornei a levantar os meus olhos, e vi, e eis aqui um homem em cuja mão estava um cordel de medir.
And I lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a man, and in his hand a measuring line.
2 E eu disse: Para onde vaes tu? E elle me disse: Vou a medir Jerusalem, para vêr qual é a sua largura e qual o seu comprimento.
And I say, “To where are you going?” And he says to me, “To measure Jerusalem, to see how much [is] its breadth and how much its length.”
3 E eis que saiu o anjo que fallava comigo, e outro anjo lhe saiu ao encontro.
And behold, the messenger who is speaking with me is going out, and another messenger is going out to meet him,
4 E disse-lhe: Corre, falla a este mancebo, dizendo: Jerusalem será habitada como as aldeias sem muros, por causa da multidão dos homens e dos animaes que estarão no meio d'ella.
and he says to him, “Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem is inhabited [as] open places, From the abundance of man and beast in her midst.
5 E eu, diz o Senhor, serei para ella um muro de fogo em redor, e serei para gloria no meio d'ella.
And I am to her—a declaration of YHWH—A wall of fire all around, And I am for glory in her midst.
6 Olá, oh! fugi agora da terra do norte, diz o Senhor, porque vos estendi pelos quatro ventos do céu, diz o Senhor.
Behold, and flee from the land of the north, A declaration of YHWH, For as the four winds of the heavens, I have spread you abroad, A declaration of YHWH.
7 Olá, Sião! livra-te tu, que habitas com a filha de Babylonia.
Behold, Zion, be delivered who are dwelling [with] the daughter of Babylon.
8 Porque assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos: Depois da gloria elle me enviou ás nações que vos despojaram; porque aquelle que tocar em vós toca na menina do seu olho.
For thus said YHWH of Hosts: He has sent Me after glory to the nations who are spoiling you, For he who is coming against you, Is coming against the pupil of His eye.
9 Porque eis que levantarei a minha mão sobre elles, e elles virão a ser a preza d'aquelles que os serviram: assim sabereis vós que o Senhor dos Exercitos me enviou.
For behold, I am waving My hand against them, And they have been a spoil to their servants. And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me.
10 Exulta, e alegra-te ó filha de Sião, porque eis que venho, e habitarei no meio de ti, diz o Senhor.
Sing, and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, For behold, I am coming, and have dwelt in your midst, A declaration of YHWH.
11 E n'aquelle dia muitas nações se ajuntarão ao Senhor, e me serão por povo, e habitarei no meio de ti, e saberás que o Senhor dos Exercitos me enviou a ti
And many nations have been joined to YHWH in that day, And they have been to Me for a people, And I have dwelt in your midst, And you have known that YHWH of Hosts has sent Me to you.
12 Então o Senhor herdará a Judah por sua porção na terra sancta, e ainda escolherá a Jerusalem.
And YHWH has inherited Judah, His portion on the holy ground, And He has fixed again on Jerusalem.
13 Cala-te, toda a carne, diante do Senhor, porque elle se despertou da sua sancta morada.
Hush, all flesh, because of YHWH, For He has been roused up from His holy habitation!”
