בַּחֹדֶשׁ, הַשְּׁמִינִי, בִּשְׁנַת שְׁתַּיִם, לְדָרְיָוֶשׁ--הָיָה דְבַר-יְהוָה, אֶל-זְכַרְיָה בֶּן-בֶּרֶכְיָה, בֶּן-עִדּוֹ הַנָּבִיא, לֵאמֹר.
bakhodesh, hashmini, bishnat shetayim, ledaryavesh--hayah devar-YHWH, el-zekharyah ben-berekhyah, ben-ido hannavi, lemor.
In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying:
2.
קָצַף יְהוָה עַל-אֲבוֹתֵיכֶם, קָצֶף.
katsaf YHWH al-avotekhem, katsef.
'The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
3.
וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם, כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, שׁוּבוּ אֵלַי, נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת--וְאָשׁוּב אֲלֵיכֶם, אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת.
ve'amarta alehem, koh amar YHWH tzva'ot, shuvu elay, ne'um YHWH tzva'ot--ve'ashuv alekhem, amar YHWH tzva'ot.
Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Return unto Me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
4.
אַל-תִּהְיוּ כַאֲבֹתֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר קָרְאוּ-אֲלֵיהֶם הַנְּבִיאִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים לֵאמֹר, כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, שׁוּבוּ נָא מִדַּרְכֵיכֶם הָרָעִים, ומעליליכם וּמַעַלְלֵיכֶם הָרָעִים; וְלֹא שָׁמְעוּ וְלֹא-הִקְשִׁיבוּ אֵלַי, נְאֻם-יְהוָה.
al-tihyu kha'avotekhem asher kar'u-alehem hannevi'im harishonim lemor, koh amar YHWH tzva'ot, shuvu na middarkhekhem hara'im, uma'alleihem hara'im; velo shame'u velo-hikshivu elay, ne'um-YHWH.
Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Return ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings; but they did not hear, nor attend unto Me, saith the LORD.
5.
אֲבוֹתֵיכֶם, אַיֵּה-הֵם; וְהַנְּבִאִים--הַלְעוֹלָם, יִחְיוּ.
avotekhem, ayyeh-hem; vehannevi'im--hal'olam, yihyu.
Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
6.
אַךְ דְּבָרַי וְחֻקַּי, אֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִי אֶת-עֲבָדַי הַנְּבִיאִים, הֲלוֹא הִשִּׂיגוּ, אֲבֹתֵיכֶם; וַיָּשׁוּבוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ, כַּאֲשֶׁר זָמַם יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת לַעֲשׂוֹת לָנוּ, כִּדְרָכֵינוּ וּכְמַעֲלָלֵינוּ, כֵּן עָשָׂה אִתָּנוּ.
akh devaray vekhukkay, asher tziviti et-avaday hannevi'im, halo hissigu, avotekhem; vayyashuvu vayyom'ru, ka'asher zamam YHWH tzva'ot la'asot lanu, kidrakheinu ukhkhema'allenu, ken asah itanu.
But My words and My statutes, which I commanded My servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? so that they turned and said: Like as the LORD of hosts purposed to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath He dealt with us.'
7.
בְּיוֹם עֶשְׂרִים וְאַרְבָּעָה לְעַשְׁתֵּי-עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ, הוּא-חֹדֶשׁ שְׁבָט, בִּשְׁנַת שְׁתַּיִם, לְדָרְיָוֶשׁ--הָיָה דְבַר-יְהוָה, אֶל-זְכַרְיָה בֶּן-בֶּרֶכְיָהוּ, בֶּן-עִדּוֹא הַנָּבִיא, לֵאמֹר.
beyom eserim ve'arba'ah le'ashtei-asar khodesh, hu-khodesh shevat, bishnat shetayim, ledaryavesh--hayah devar-YHWH, el-zekaryah ben-berekhyahu, ben-iddo hannavi, lemor.
Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, the prophet, saying--
8.
רָאִיתִי הַלַּיְלָה, וְהִנֵּה-אִישׁ רֹכֵב עַל-סוּס אָדֹם, וְהוּא עֹמֵד, בֵּין הַהֲדַסִּים אֲשֶׁר בַּמְּצֻלָה; וְאַחֲרָיו סוּסִים אֲדֻמִּים, שְׂרֻקִּים וּלְבָנִים.
ra'iti hallaylah, vehinneh-ish rokhev al-sus adom, vehu omed, bein hahadassim asher bamtzulah; ve'akharav susim adummim, serukkim ulevanim.
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.
וָאֹמַר, מָה-אֵלֶּה אֲדֹנִי; וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי, הַמַּלְאָךְ הַדֹּבֵר בִּי, אֲנִי אַרְאֶךָּ, מָה-הֵמָּה אֵלֶּה.
va'omar, mah-elleh adoni; vayomer elai, hammal'akh hadover bi, ani ar'ekka, mah-hemmah elleh.
Then said I: 'O my lord, what are these?' And the angel that spoke with me said unto me: 'I will show thee what these are.'
10.
וַיַּעַן, הָאִישׁ הָעֹמֵד בֵּין-הַהֲדַסִּים--וַיֹּאמַר: אֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר שָׁלַח יְהוָה, לְהִתְהַלֵּךְ בָּאָרֶץ.
vayaan, ha'ish ha'omed bein-hahadassim--vayomer: elleh asher shalakh YHWH, lehitnhallekh ba'aretz.
And the man that stood among the myrtle-trees answered and said: 'These are they whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.'
11.
וַיַּעֲנוּ אֶת-מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה, הָעֹמֵד בֵּין הַהֲדַסִּים, וַיֹּאמְרוּ, הִתְהַלַּכְנוּ בָאָרֶץ; וְהִנֵּה כָל-הָאָרֶץ, יֹשֶׁבֶת וְשֹׁקָטֶת.
vaya'anu et-mal'akh YHWH, ha'omed bein hahadassim, vayomru, hithallakhnu va'aretz; vehineh khol-ha'aretz, yoshevet veshokatet.
And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle-trees, and said: 'We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.'
12.
וַיַּעַן מַלְאַךְ-יְהוָה, וַיֹּאמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, עַד-מָתַי אַתָּה לֹא-תְרַחֵם אֶת-יְרוּשָׁלִַם וְאֵת עָרֵי יְהוּדָה--אֲשֶׁר זָעַמְתָּה, זֶה שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה.
vaya'an mal'akh-YHWH, vayomer, YHWH tzeva'ot, ad-matay attah lo-terachem et-Yerushalayim ve'et arei Yehudah--asher za'amtah, zeh shiv'im shanah.
Then the angel of the LORD spoke and said: 'O LORD of hosts, how long wilt Thou not have compassion on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which Thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13.
וַיַּעַן יְהוָה, אֶת-הַמַּלְאָךְ הַדֹּבֵר בִּי--דְּבָרִים טוֹבִים: דְּבָרִים, נִחֻמִים.
vaya'an YHWH, et-hammal'akh hadover bi--devarim tovim, devarim, nichumim.
And the LORD answered the angel that spoke with me with good words, even comforting words--
14.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי, הַמַּלְאָךְ הַדֹּבֵר בִּי, קְרָא לֵאמֹר, כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת: קִנֵּאתִי לִירוּשָׁלִַם וּלְצִיּוֹן, קִנְאָה גְדוֹלָה.
vayomer elay, hammal'akh hadover bi, kra lemor, koh amar YHWH tzeva'ot: kinneti liyrushalayim ulTziyon, kin'ah gedolah.
so the angel that spoke with me said unto me: 'Proclaim thou, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy;
15.
וְקֶצֶף גָּדוֹל אֲנִי קֹצֵף, עַל-הַגּוֹיִם הַשַּׁאֲנַנִּים, אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי קָצַפְתִּי מְּעָט, וְהֵמָּה עָזְרוּ לְרָעָה.
ve'ketzef gadol ani kotzef, al-haggoyim hashaanannim, asher ani katzafti me'at, vehemmah azuru lera'ah.
and I am very sore displeased with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little displeased, and they helped for evil.
16.
לָכֵן כֹּה-אָמַר יְהוָה, שַׁבְתִּי לִירוּשָׁלִַם בְּרַחֲמִים--בֵּיתִי יִבָּנֶה בָּהּ, נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת; וקוה וְקָו יִנָּטֶה, עַל-יְרוּשָׁלִָם.
lakhen koh-amar YHWH, shavti lirushalayim berachamim--beiti yibbaneh bah, neum YHWH tzva'ot; vekaveh vekav yinnateh, al-yerushalayim.
Therefore thus saith the LORD: I return to Jerusalem with compassions: My house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth over Jerusalem.
17.
עוֹד קְרָא לֵאמֹר, כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, עוֹד תְּפוּצֶנָה עָרַי, מִטּוֹב; וְנִחַם יְהוָה עוֹד אֶת-צִיּוֹן, וּבָחַר עוֹד בִּירוּשָׁלִָם.
od kera lemor, koh amar YHWH tzva'ot, od tefutzenah aray, mittov; venicham YHWH od et-tziyon, uvachar od birushalayim.
Again, proclaim, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: My cities shall again overflow with prosperity; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.'
