撒迦利亞書 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
呼喚人民歸向耶和華
1 大流士王二年八月,耶和華對易多的孫子、比利迦的兒子撒迦利亞先知說: 2 「耶和華曾對你們的祖先大發怒氣。 3 因此,你要告訴百姓,萬軍之耶和華說,『你們要歸向我,我就回到你們那裡。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。 4 不要像你們的祖先一樣。以前的先知曾呼喚他們要聽從萬軍之耶和華的話,改邪歸正,停止作惡,他們卻置若罔聞,不予理會。這是耶和華說的。 5 現在你們的祖先在哪裡呢?那些先知能活到永遠嗎? 6 然而,我吩咐我僕人——眾先知的訓言和律例豈不應驗在你們祖先的頭上了嗎?後來他們悔改了,說,萬軍之耶和華按著我們的所作所為報應了我們,正如祂所言。』」
有關騎士的異象
7 大流士王二年十一月,即細罷特月二十四日,耶和華的話傳給了易多的孫子、比利迦的兒子撒迦利亞先知。 8 我在夜間看到異象,見有人騎著一匹紅馬,站在谷中的番石榴樹林間,後面有紅馬、棕馬和白馬騎士。 9 我就問:「主啊,這是什麼意思?」那位跟我說話的天使說:「我會告訴你這是什麼意思。」 10 站在番石榴樹林間的那位對我說:「這些是耶和華派來巡視大地的。」 11 其他騎士向站在番石榴樹林間的那位耶和華的天使報告說:「我們已經巡視了大地,到處都安寧平靜。」
12 耶和華的天使說:「萬軍之耶和華啊,你向耶路撒冷和猶大的城邑發怒已經七十年了,還要多久你才會憐憫他們呢?」 13 耶和華用仁慈、安慰的話回答那位與我說話的天使。
14 那位天使對我說:「你要宣告,萬軍之耶和華說,『我對耶路撒冷,對錫安充滿了火熱的愛。 15 我對安逸的列國充滿憤怒,因為我只是對我的子民稍微不滿,列國卻大肆禍害他們。』 16 因此,耶和華說,『我必懷著憐憫的心回到耶路撒冷,我的殿必在那裡重建,必有準繩丈量耶路撒冷。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。』 17 你還要宣告,萬軍之耶和華說,『我的城邑必再次繁榮昌盛,耶和華必再次安慰錫安,揀選耶路撒冷。』」
有關角和工匠的異象
18 我又舉目觀看,見有四個角。 19 於是,我問與我說話的天使:「這是什麼?」他回答說:「這些是驅散猶大、以色列和耶路撒冷的角。」 20 耶和華又讓我看見四個工匠。 21 於是我問:「他們來做什麼?」他說:「這些角驅散了猶大,以致無人能抬頭,但這些工匠是來威嚇列國,並打掉他們用來攻擊和驅散猶大的角。」

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
Christian Standard Bible
A Plea for Repentance
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius,(A) the word of the Lord came to the prophet Zechariah(B) son of Berechiah, son of Iddo: 2 “The Lord was extremely angry with your ancestors.(C) 3 So tell the people, ‘This is what the Lord of Armies says: Return to me—this is the declaration of the Lord of Armies—and I will return to you, says the Lord of Armies.(D) 4 Do not be like your ancestors;(E) the earlier prophets proclaimed to them:(F) This is what the Lord of Armies says: Turn from your evil ways and your evil deeds.(G) But they did not listen or pay attention to me—this is the Lord’s declaration. 5 Where are your ancestors now? And do the prophets live forever? 6 But didn’t my words and my statutes that I commanded my servants the prophets overtake your ancestors?’”
So the people repented and said, “As the Lord of Armies decided to deal with us for our ways and our deeds, so he has dealt with us.”(H)
The Night Visions
7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berechiah, son of Iddo:
First Vision: Horsemen
8 I looked out in the night and saw a man riding on a chestnut[a] horse.(I) He was standing among the myrtle trees in the valley.[b] Behind him were chestnut, brown, and white horses. 9 I asked, “What are these, my lord?”
The angel who was talking to me replied, “I will show you what they are.”
10 Then the man standing among the myrtle trees explained, “They are the ones the Lord has sent to patrol the earth.”
11 They reported to the angel of the Lord standing among the myrtle trees, “We have patrolled the earth, and right now the whole earth is calm and quiet.”(J)
12 Then the angel of the Lord responded, “How long, Lord of Armies, will you withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah that you have been angry with these seventy years?” (K) 13 The Lord replied with kind and comforting words to the angel who was speaking with me.
14 So the angel who was speaking with me said, “Proclaim: The Lord of Armies says: I am extremely jealous(L) for Jerusalem and Zion. 15 I am fiercely angry with the nations that are at ease,(M) for I was a little angry, but they made the destruction worse.[c] 16 Therefore, this is what the Lord says: In mercy, I have returned to Jerusalem; my house will be rebuilt within it—this is the declaration of the Lord of Armies—and a measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem.(N)
17 “Proclaim further: This is what the Lord of Armies says: My cities will again overflow with prosperity; the Lord will once more comfort Zion and again choose Jerusalem.”(O)
Second Vision: Four Horns and Craftsmen
18 Then I looked up and saw four horns.(P) 19 So I asked the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these?”
And he said to me, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
20 Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen. 21 I asked, “What are they coming to do?”
He replied, “These are the horns that scattered Judah so no one could raise his head. These craftsmen have come to terrify them, to cut off[d] the horns of the nations that raised a horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”
