스가랴 8
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
예루살렘의 축복을 약속하시는 주님
8 만군의 주께서 하신 말씀이다.
2 만군의 주께서 이렇게 말씀하신다.
“나는 시온에 대해 불같이 질투한다.
나는 분노에 차서 시온에 대해 질투한다.”
3 주께서 하시는 말씀이다.
“내가 시온으로 돌아왔다.
나는 예루살렘 안에 살 것이다.
예루살렘은 ‘성실한 도시’라고 불릴 것이며
만군의 주님의 산은 ‘거룩한 산’이라고 불릴 것이다.”
4 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
“남녀 노인들이 예루살렘의 광장에 다시 앉아 쉬게 될 것이다.
그들은 모두 오래 살면서 손에 지팡이를 집고 걸을 것이다.
5 도시 광장에는 남자아이들과 여자아이들이 웃으며 뛰어 놀 것이다.”
6 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
“오늘 이 백성들 중에서 살아남은 자들의 눈에는
이것이 불가능한 일처럼 보일 것이다.
하지만 그것이 내 눈에도 불가능한 일로 보이겠느냐?”
만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
7 만군의 주께서 하시는 말씀이다.
“이제 내가 동쪽 땅과 서쪽 땅에서
내 백성을 구해내겠다.
8 내가 그들을 이리로 데려오면
그들은 예루살렘 안에 살게 될 것이다.
그들은 내 백성이 되고 나는 그들에게 성실하고 의로운 하나님이 될 것이다.”
9 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
“성전을 다시 짓기 위해
만군의 주님의 집에 주춧돌을 놓던 그 날
예언을 했던 그 예언자들을 통해서
오늘 이 말씀을 듣고 있는 너희들에게 내가 말한다.
용기를 내어라.
10 그 이전에는 일꾼 한 사람을 쓸 품삯도 없었고
짐승 한 마리에게 일을 시킬 품삯도 없었다.
원수들 때문에 사람이 안전하게 여행을 할 수도 없었다.
내가 모두들 서로 원수가 되게 했기 때문이다.
11 하지만 이제
살아남은 이 백성에게는 이전같이 하지 않을 것이다.”
만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
12 “그들이 뿌린 씨는 잘 자랄 것이다.
포도나무는 열매를 맺고
땅은 소출을 낼 것이며
하늘은 비를 내릴 것이다.
이 땅에 남은 백성에게 내가 이 모든 것들을 내려줄 것이다.
13 유다 백성과 이스라엘 백성아
뭇 나라 사람들이 너희를 저주받은 백성이라 불렀지만
내가 너희를 구해내는 날
그들은 너희를 복 받은 백성이라 부를 것이다.
두려워하지 말고 용기를 내어라.”
14 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다. “너희 조상들이 나를 노하게 했을 때, 내가 너희에게 재앙을 내리기로 마음먹고 그 생각을 바꾸지 않았다. 15 그러나 이제 나는 예루살렘과 유다 백성에게 잘 대해주기로 마음먹었다. 두려워하지 말아라.
16 너희가 해야 할 일은 다음과 같다.
너희는 서로에게 진실만을 말해라.
법정에서는 정의롭게 재판하여 평화를 이루어라.
17 아무도 이웃을 해치려는 마음을 품지 말아라.
거짓 맹세를 하지 말아라.
너희는 그런 짓을 즐겨서는 안 된다.
이런 것들은 모두 내가 미워하는 것들이다.”
주님께서 말씀하신다.
18 만군의 주께서 이런 예언을 내게 내리셨다. 19 만군의 주께서 이렇게 말씀하신다. “사월의 금식, 오월의 금식, 칠월의 금식, 시월의 금식[a]은 유다 백성에게 기쁨과 축하와 행복의 축제가 될 것이다. 너희는 진실과 평화를 사랑해라.”
20 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다.
“장차 많은 도시의 백성들과 주민들이 예루살렘으로 몰려 올 것이다.
21 한 도시 사람들이 다른 도시 사람들에게 가서 이렇게 말할 것이다.
‘주님께 도움을 청하러 가자.
가서 만군의 주께 예배드리자.’
그러면 다른 도시 주민들도 말할 것이다.
‘나도 함께 가겠다.’”
22 많은 백성들과 강한 나라들이 예루살렘으로 몰려와 만군의 주께 예배하고 주의 도움을 청할 것이다. 23 만군의 주께서 말씀하신다. “그 날 서로 다른 말을 쓰는 이방인 열 사람이, 유대인 한 사람의 옷자락을 붙들고 ‘우리를 여러분과 함께 가게 해 주십시오. 하나님께서 여러분과 함께 계신다는 말을 들었습니다.’ 하고 말할 것이다.”

New International Version
The Lord Promises to Bless Jerusalem
8 The word of the Lord Almighty came to me.
2 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “I am very jealous(A) for Zion; I am burning with jealousy for her.”
3 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)”
4 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. 5 The city streets will be filled with boys and girls playing there.(I)”
6 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.
7 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “I will save my people from the countries of the east and the west.(L) 8 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)”
9 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)

King James Version
8 Again the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying,
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.
3 Thus saith the Lord; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the Lord of hosts the holy mountain.
4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.
6 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.
7 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country;
8 And I will bring them, and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.
9 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built.
10 For before these days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
11 But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the Lord of hosts.
12 For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things.
13 And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands be strong.
14 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the Lord of hosts, and I repented not:
15 So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates:
17 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the Lord.
18 And the word of the Lord of hosts came unto me, saying,
19 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace.
20 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:
21 And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I will go also.
22 Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
23 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

The Coming Peace and Prosperity of Zion
8 And the word of the Lord of hosts came, saying, 2 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: (A)I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath. 3 Thus says the Lord: (B)I have returned to Zion and (C)will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, (D)and Jerusalem shall be called the faithful city, (E)and the mountain of the Lord of hosts, the holy mountain. 4 Thus says the Lord of hosts: (F)Old men and old women shall again sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with staff in hand because of great age. 5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets. 6 Thus says the Lord of hosts: (G)If it is marvelous in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, (H)should it also be marvelous in my sight, declares the Lord of hosts? 7 Thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, (I)I will save my people (J)from the east country and from the west country, 8 and I will bring them to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. (K)And they shall be my people, and I will be their God, (L)in faithfulness and in righteousness.”
9 Thus says the Lord of hosts: (M)“Let your hands be strong, you who in these days have been hearing these words from the mouth of (N)the prophets who were present on (O)the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. 10 For before those days (P)there was no wage for man or any wage for beast, neither was there any safety from the foe for him who went out or came in, for I set every man against his neighbor. 11 But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as in the former days, declares the Lord of hosts. 12 (Q)For there shall be a sowing of peace. The vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its produce, (R)and the heavens shall give their dew. (S)And I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things. 13 And as (T)you have been a byword of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, (U)so will I save you, and (V)you shall be a blessing. (W)Fear not, but (X)let your hands be strong.”
14 For thus says the Lord of hosts: (Y)“As I purposed to bring disaster to you when your fathers provoked me to wrath, and I did not relent, says the Lord of hosts, 15 so again have I purposed in these days to bring good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; (Z)fear not. 16 These are the things that you shall do: (AA)Speak the truth to one another; (AB)render in your gates judgments (AC)that are true and make for peace; 17 (AD)do not devise evil in your hearts against one another, and (AE)love no false oath, for all these things I hate, declares the Lord.”
18 And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying, 19 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: The fast of the (AF)fourth month and the fast of the (AG)fifth and the fast of the (AH)seventh and the fast of the (AI)tenth shall be to the house of Judah (AJ)seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts. Therefore love (AK)truth and peace.
20 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: Peoples shall yet come, even the inhabitants of many cities. 21 The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, (AL)‘Let us go at once (AM)to entreat the favor of the Lord and to seek the Lord of hosts; I myself am going.’ 22 (AN)Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem and (AO)to entreat the favor of the Lord. 23 Thus says the Lord of hosts: In those days (AP)ten men (AQ)from the nations of every tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for (AR)we have heard that God is with you.’”
