撒迦利亚书 1
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
勸人民悔改歸向 神
1 大利烏王第二年八月,耶和華的話臨到易多的孫子、比利家的兒子撒迦利亞先知,說: 2 “耶和華曾對你們的列祖大發烈怒, 3 所以,你要對眾民說:‘萬軍之耶和華這樣說:你們要轉向我(這是萬軍之耶和華的宣告),我就必轉向你們(這是萬軍之耶和華說的)。 4 不要效法你們的列祖那樣,從前的先知呼喚他們:萬軍之耶和華這樣說,你們要回轉,離開你們的惡道和惡行。他們卻不聽從,也不理會我(這是耶和華的宣告)。 5 你們的列祖在哪裡呢?那些先知能永遠活著嗎? 6 然而我吩咐我的僕人眾先知的話與條例,不是已報應在你們的列祖身上嗎?所以他們就回轉,說:萬軍之耶和華定意按著我們所作所行的對付我們,他已經這樣行了。’”
騎馬者的異象
7 大利烏王第二年十一月(就是細罷特月)二十四日,耶和華的話臨到易多的孫子、比利家的兒子撒迦利亞先知,實情如下:
8 我夜間觀看,看見有一個人騎著紅馬,站在低窪地上的番石榴樹中間;在他後面還有些紅色、栗色和白色的馬。
9 我就問:“我主啊,這些是甚麼?”那與我說話的天使對我說:“我會指示你這些是甚麼。”
10 那站在番石榴樹中間的人回答:“這些就是耶和華所差遣在遍地巡邏的。”
11 那些騎士回報那站在番石榴樹中間的耶和華使者,說:“我們已經在遍地巡邏;看見全地都安定,一片平靜。”
12 於是耶和華的使者說:“萬軍之耶和華啊!你不憐憫耶路撒冷和猶大的城鎮,要到幾時呢?這七十年來,你一直惱怒它們。” 13 耶和華就用滿有恩慈和安慰的話回答那與我說話的天使。
14 那與我說話的天使對我說:“你要宣告:‘萬軍之耶和華這樣說:我為耶路撒冷和錫安心裡充滿嫉恨。 15 我向那些安逸的列國大大惱怒,因為我只是稍微惱怒我的子民,他們卻加深他們的禍害。 16 因此,耶和華這樣說:我要懷著憐憫的心回到耶路撒冷,我的殿必在城中重建(這是萬軍之耶和華的宣告)。繩子必拉在耶路撒冷之上。’ 17 你要再宣告:‘萬軍之耶和華這樣說:我的城鎮必再昌盛繁榮,耶和華必再憐憫錫安,必再揀選耶路撒冷。’”
四角的異象
18 我又舉目觀看,看見有四個角。 19 於是我問那與我說話的天使:“這些是甚麼?”他對我說:“這些就是把猶大、以色列和耶路撒冷趕散的角。”
四工匠的異象
20 耶和華又使我看見四個匠人。 21 於是我說:“這些人來作甚麼?”那天使回答:“他們就是把猶大趕散的角,以致沒有一人可以抬起頭來;但這些匠人要來驚嚇列國,打掉他們的角;這些列國就是曾經舉起他們的角攻擊猶大地,把猶大地的人趕散的。”(本章第18~21節在《馬索拉文本》為2:1~4)
撒迦利亚书 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
呼唤人民归向耶和华
1 大流士王二年八月,耶和华对易多的孙子、比利迦的儿子撒迦利亚先知说: 2 “耶和华曾对你们的祖先大发怒气。 3 因此,你要告诉百姓,万军之耶和华说,‘你们要归向我,我就回到你们那里。这是万军之耶和华说的。 4 不要像你们的祖先一样。以前的先知曾呼唤他们要听从万军之耶和华的话,改邪归正,停止作恶,他们却置若罔闻,不予理会。这是耶和华说的。 5 现在你们的祖先在哪里呢?那些先知能活到永远吗? 6 然而,我吩咐我仆人——众先知的训言和律例岂不应验在你们祖先的头上了吗?后来他们悔改了,说,万军之耶和华按着我们的所作所为报应了我们,正如祂所言。’”
有关骑士的异象
7 大流士王二年十一月,即细罢特月二十四日,耶和华的话传给了易多的孙子、比利迦的儿子撒迦利亚先知。 8 我在夜间看到异象,见有人骑着一匹红马,站在谷中的番石榴树林间,后面有红马、棕马和白马骑士。 9 我就问:“主啊,这是什么意思?”那位跟我说话的天使说:“我会告诉你这是什么意思。” 10 站在番石榴树林间的那位对我说:“这些是耶和华派来巡视大地的。” 11 其他骑士向站在番石榴树林间的那位耶和华的天使报告说:“我们已经巡视了大地,到处都安宁平静。”
12 耶和华的天使说:“万军之耶和华啊,你向耶路撒冷和犹大的城邑发怒已经七十年了,还要多久你才会怜悯他们呢?” 13 耶和华用仁慈、安慰的话回答那位与我说话的天使。
14 那位天使对我说:“你要宣告,万军之耶和华说,‘我对耶路撒冷,对锡安充满了火热的爱。 15 我对安逸的列国充满愤怒,因为我只是对我的子民稍微不满,列国却大肆祸害他们。’ 16 因此,耶和华说,‘我必怀着怜悯的心回到耶路撒冷,我的殿必在那里重建,必有准绳丈量耶路撒冷。这是万军之耶和华说的。’ 17 你还要宣告,万军之耶和华说,‘我的城邑必再次繁荣昌盛,耶和华必再次安慰锡安,拣选耶路撒冷。’”
有关角和工匠的异象
18 我又举目观看,见有四个角。 19 于是,我问与我说话的天使:“这是什么?”他回答说:“这些是驱散犹大、以色列和耶路撒冷的角。” 20 耶和华又让我看见四个工匠。 21 于是我问:“他们来做什么?”他说:“这些角驱散了犹大,以致无人能抬头,但这些工匠是来威吓列国,并打掉他们用来攻击和驱散犹大的角。”
Zechariah 1
King James Version
1 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 The Lord hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
3 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the Lord of hosts.
4 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the Lord.
5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
6 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said, Like as the Lord of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us.
7 Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, 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 I saw by 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 were there red horses, speckled, and white.
9 Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be.
10 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 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 Then the angel of the Lord answered and said, O Lord of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13 And the Lord answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the Lord shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
18 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
19 And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.
20 And the Lord shewed me four carpenters.
21 Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it.
