复兴以色列的应许

万军之耶和华的话临到我说: “万军之耶和华这样说:‘我十分热爱锡安;我为锡安大发烈怒。’ 耶和华这样说:‘我要返回锡安,住在耶路撒冷里面;耶路撒冷必称为“信实之城”,万军之耶和华的山必称为“圣山”。’

“万军之耶和华这样说:‘年老的男女必再坐在耶路撒冷的街上;他们因为年纪老迈,各人都手拿拐杖。 城里的街上必满了男孩女孩,在街上嬉戏。’

“万军之耶和华这样说:‘在那些日子,这事在这余剩的子民眼中被视为不可能的奇迹,在我眼中也视为不可能吗?’这是万军之耶和华的宣告。

“万军之耶和华这样说:‘看哪!我必从日出之地和日落之地拯救我的子民。 我要把他们领回来,让他们住在耶路撒冷;他们要作我的子民,我也要凭着信实和公义作他们的 神。’

“万军之耶和华这样说:‘在万军之耶和华的殿奠立了根基,预备建造的日子,你们这些在当时听过众先知亲口宣告这些话的人,现在你们的手务要刚强。 10 因为在那些日子以前,人作工是没有工价的,牲畜也是这样,并且因有敌人的缘故,人出入就没有平安,我也使众人互相攻击。 11 但现在我待这些余剩的子民必不像从前的日子那样(这是万军之耶和华的宣告)。 12 因为五谷必生长繁茂,葡萄树必结果子,地土必出土产,天也必降下甘露,我要使这些余剩的子民承受这一切。 13 犹大家和以色列家啊!你们从前怎样在万国中成为可咒诅的,将来,我也要怎样拯救你们,使你们成为祝福。你们不要惧怕,你们的手务要刚强。’

14 “万军之耶和华这样说:‘你们的列祖惹我发怒的时候,我曾定意降祸在你们身上,并没有改变心意(这是万军之耶和华说的); 15 照样,在这些日子里,我定意恩待耶路撒冷和犹大家。你们不要惧怕。 16 你们应当行这些事:你们各人要与邻舍说真话,在你们的城门口要凭着诚实施行带来和平的审判。 17 你们各人不要心里图谋恶事,彼此陷害,也不可好起假誓,因为这些都是我所恨恶的。’这是耶和华的宣告。”

哀哭变成欢乐

18 万军之耶和华的话临到我,说: 19 “万军之耶和华这样说:‘四月的禁食、五月的禁食、七月的禁食和十月的禁食都要变为犹大家欢喜快乐的日子和欢乐的节期。所以,你们要喜爱诚实与和平。’

万民寻求主恩

20 “万军之耶和华这样说:‘将来还有万族的人和多个城市的居民要来。 21 一城的居民到另一城去,对他们说:我们快去恳求耶和华施恩,求告万军之耶和华;我自己也去。 22 必有很多的民族和强大的国家前来,在耶路撒冷求告万军之耶和华,恳求他施恩。’

23 “万军之耶和华这样说:‘在那些日子,必有十个说不同方言,来自列国的人,紧抓住一个犹大人的衣襟,说:让我们与你们同去吧,因为我们听见 神与你们同在。’”

The Lord Promises to Bless Jerusalem

The word of the Lord Almighty came to me.

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “I am very jealous(A) for Zion; I am burning with jealousy for her.”

This is what the Lord says: “I will return(B) to Zion(C) and dwell in Jerusalem.(D) Then Jerusalem will be called the Faithful City,(E) and the mountain(F) of the Lord Almighty will be called the Holy Mountain.(G)

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Once again men and women of ripe old age will sit in the streets of Jerusalem,(H) each of them with cane in hand because of their age. The city streets will be filled with boys and girls playing there.(I)

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “It may seem marvelous to the remnant of this people at that time,(J) but will it seem marvelous to me?(K)” declares the Lord Almighty.

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “I will save my people from the countries of the east and the west.(L) I will bring them back(M) to live(N) in Jerusalem; they will be my people,(O) and I will be faithful and righteous to them as their God.(P)

This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Now hear these words, ‘Let your hands be strong(Q) so that the temple may be built.’ This is also what the prophets(R) said who were present when the foundation(S) was laid for the house of the Lord Almighty. 10 Before that time there were no wages(T) for people or hire for animals. No one could go about their business safely(U) because of their enemies, since I had turned everyone against their neighbor. 11 But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as I did in the past,”(V) declares the Lord Almighty.

12 “The seed will grow well, the vine will yield its fruit,(W) the ground will produce its crops,(X) and the heavens will drop their dew.(Y) I will give all these things as an inheritance(Z) to the remnant of this people.(AA) 13 Just as you, Judah and Israel, have been a curse[a](AB) among the nations, so I will save(AC) you, and you will be a blessing.[b](AD) Do not be afraid,(AE) but let your hands be strong.(AF)

14 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Just as I had determined to bring disaster(AG) on you and showed no pity when your ancestors angered me,” says the Lord Almighty, 15 “so now I have determined to do good(AH) again to Jerusalem and Judah.(AI) Do not be afraid. 16 These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth(AJ) to each other, and render true and sound judgment(AK) in your courts;(AL) 17 do not plot evil(AM) against each other, and do not love to swear falsely.(AN) I hate all this,” declares the Lord.

18 The word of the Lord Almighty came to me.

19 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “The fasts of the fourth,(AO) fifth,(AP) seventh(AQ) and tenth(AR) months will become joyful(AS) and glad occasions and happy festivals for Judah. Therefore love truth(AT) and peace.”

20 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Many peoples and the inhabitants of many cities will yet come, 21 and the inhabitants of one city will go to another and say, ‘Let us go at once to entreat(AU) the Lord and seek(AV) the Lord Almighty. I myself am going.’ 22 And many peoples and powerful nations will come to Jerusalem to seek the Lord Almighty and to entreat him.”(AW)

23 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, ‘Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.’”(AX)
