< Zaharija 1 >
1 Osmoga mjeseca druge godine Darijeve, doðe rijeè Gospodnja proroku Zahariji sinu Varahije sina Idova govoreæi:
In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Jehovah to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying: —
2 Gospod se vrlo razgnjevi na oce vaše.
Jehovah hath been much displeased with your fathers.
3 Zato im reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: vratite se k meni, govori Gospod nad vojskama, i ja æu se vratiti k vama, veli Gospod nad vojskama.
But say thou to them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Turn ye to me, saith Jehovah of hosts, And I will turn to you, saith Jehovah of hosts.
4 Ne budite kao oci vaši, kojima vikahu preðašnji proroci govoreæi: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: vratite se sa zlijeh putova svojih i od zlijeh djela svojih; ali ne poslušaše niti paziše na me, govori Gospod.
Be ye not as your fathers, to whom the former prophets cried, saying, Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings! But they did not hear, nor hearken to me, saith Jehovah.
5 Oci vaši gdje su? i ti proroci žive li dovijeka?
Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
6 Ali rijeèi moje i uredbe moje koje zapovijedah slugama svojim prorocima ne stigoše li oce vaše? te se oni obratiše i rekoše: kako Gospod nad vojskama bješe namislio uèiniti nam prema putovima našim i po djelima našim, tako nam uèini.
But my words and my statutes, Which I commanded my servants, the prophets, Did they not overtake your fathers? And they returned and said, Even as Jehovah of hosts thought To do to us according to our ways, and according to doings, So hath he done to us.
7 Dvadeset èetvrtoga dana jedanaestoga mjeseca, a to je mjesec Savat, druge godine Darijeve, doðe rijeè Gospodnja proroku Zahariji sinu Varahije sina Idova govoreæi:
On the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of Jehovah to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
8 Vidjeh noæu, a to èovjek jahaše na konju riðu, i stajaše meðu mirtama koje bijahu u dolu, a za njim bijahu konji riði, šareni i bijeli.
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 deep valley, and behind him were other horses, red, fox-colored, and white.
9 I rekoh: što je ovo, gospodaru moj? A anðeo koji govoraše sa mnom reèe mi: ja æu ti pokazati što je ovo.
Then I said, What are these, my lord? And the angel that talked with me said to me, I will show thee what these are.
10 Tada èovjek koji stajaše meðu mirtama progovori i reèe: ovo su koje posla Gospod da oblaze zemlju.
And the man that stood among the myrtle-trees answered and said, These are they whom Jehovah hath sent to go to and fro through the earth.
11 I oni progovoriše anðelu Gospodnjemu koji stajaše meðu mirtama, i rekoše: mi obidosmo zemlju, i gle, sva zemlja poèiva i mirna je.
And they answered the angel of Jehovah that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said, We have gone to and fro through the earth, and behold, all the earth is still and at rest.
12 Tada anðeo Gospodnji odgovori i reèe: Gospode nad vojskama, kad æeš se veæ smilovati Jerusalimu i gradovima Judinijem, na koje se gnjeviš veæ sedamdeset godina?
Then the angel of Jehovah answered, and said, O Jehovah of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13 A Gospod odgovori anðelu koji govoraše sa mnom, dobrijem rijeèima, milijem rijeèima.
And Jehovah answered the angel that talked with me good words and comfortable words.
14 I reèe mi anðeo koji govoraše sa mnom: vièi i reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: revnujem za Jerusalim i za Sion veoma.
And the angel who talked with me said to me: Proclaim thou and say, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with great jealousy,
15 I gnjevim se silno na narode bezbrižne, jer se malo razgnjevih a oni pomogoše na zlo.
And with great anger am I angry with the nations that are at ease; For I was but a little displeased, And they helped forward the affliction.
16 Zato ovako veli Gospod: obratih se k Jerusalimu milošæu, dom æe se moj opet sazidati u njemu, govori Gospod nad vojskama, i uže æe se zategnuti preko Jerusalima.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: I return to Jerusalem with mercies; My house shall be built in it, Saith Jehovah of hosts, And a measuring-line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
17 Još vièi i reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: opet æe gradovi moji obilovati dobrom, i Gospod æe opet utješiti Sion i opet æe izabrati Jerusalim.
Proclaim yet and say, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: My cities shall yet overflow with prosperity, And Jehovah will yet comfort Zion, And will yet choose Jerusalem.
18 Tada podigoh oèi svoje i vidjeh, i gle, èetiri roga.
Then I lifted up my eyes and looked, and behold, four horns.
19 I rekoh anðelu koji govoraše sa mnom: što je to? A on mi reèe: to su rogovi koji razmetnuše Judu, Izrailja i Jerusalim.
And I said to the angel that talked with me, What mean these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
20 Potom pokaza mi Gospod èetiri kovaèa.
And Jehovah showed me four smiths.
21 I rekoh: šta su ti došli da rade? A on odgovori i reèe: ono su rogovi koji razmetnuše Judu da niko ne podiže glave; a ovi doðoše da ih uplaše, da odbiju rogove narodima, koji podigoše rog na zemlju Judinu da je razmetnu.
Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; and now these are come to terrify them, to cast out the horns of the nations which lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.
