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.

Chamado para voltar ao Senhor
1 Em novembro[a] do segundo ano do reinado de Dario, o Senhor deu esta mensagem ao profeta Zacarias, filho de Berequias, neto de Ido:
2 “Eu, o Senhor, fiquei extremamente irado com seus antepassados. 3 Portanto, diga ao povo: ‘Assim diz o Senhor dos Exércitos: Voltem-se para mim, e eu me voltarei para vocês, diz o Senhor dos Exércitos’. 4 Não sejam como seus antepassados, que não quiseram ouvir nem deram atenção quando os antigos profetas lhes disseram: ‘Assim diz o Senhor dos Exércitos: Deixem seus caminhos maus e abandonem suas práticas perversas’.
5 “Onde estão agora seus antepassados? Morreram há muito tempo, assim como os profetas. 6 Mas tudo que eu disse e ordenei por meio de meus servos, os profetas, aconteceu a seus antepassados. Por isso, eles se arrependeram e disseram: ‘Recebemos do Senhor dos Exércitos o que merecíamos. Ele fez o que havia prometido’”.
Um homem entre as murtas
7 Três meses depois, no dia 15 de fevereiro,[b] o Senhor deu outra mensagem ao profeta Zacarias, filho de Berequias, neto de Ido.
8 Numa visão durante a noite, vi um homem montado num cavalo vermelho, parado entre algumas murtas num desfiladeiro. Atrás dele, havia cavaleiros montados em cavalos vermelhos, marrons e brancos. 9 Perguntei ao anjo que falava comigo: “Meu senhor, o que significam estes cavalos?”.
“Eu lhe mostrarei”, o anjo respondeu.
10 O cavaleiro que estava entre as murtas explicou: “Eles são aqueles que o Senhor enviou para percorrer a terra”.
11 Então os outros cavaleiros disseram ao anjo do Senhor, que estava entre as murtas: “Percorremos toda a terra, e ela está em paz”.
12 Quando o anjo do Senhor ouviu isso, disse: “Ó Senhor dos Exércitos, durante estes setenta anos tens estado irado com Jerusalém e as cidades de Judá. Quanto tempo levará para voltares a ter compaixão delas?”. 13 E, ao anjo que falava comigo, o Senhor respondeu com palavras boas e consoladoras.
14 Então o anjo me disse: “Proclame esta mensagem: ‘Assim diz o Senhor dos Exércitos: Tenho grande zelo por Jerusalém e pelo monte Sião, 15 mas estou extremamente irado com as outras nações que agora vivem tranquilas. Eu estava apenas um pouco irado com meu povo, mas as nações fizeram que ele sofresse muito.
16 “‘Portanto, assim diz o Senhor: Voltei a mostrar compaixão por Jerusalém. Meu templo será reconstruído, diz o Senhor dos Exércitos, e serão tiradas medidas para a reconstrução de Jerusalém’.[c]
17 “Diga também: ‘Assim diz o Senhor dos Exércitos: As cidades de Israel voltarão a transbordar de prosperidade, e o Senhor voltará a consolar Sião e escolherá Jerusalém para si’”.
Quatro chifres e quatro ferreiros
18 [d]Então levantei os olhos e vi quatro chifres de animais. 19 “O que significam estes chifres?”, perguntei ao anjo que falava comigo.
Ele respondeu: “Estes chifres representam as nações que dispersaram Judá, Israel e Jerusalém”.
20 Então o Senhor me mostrou quatro ferreiros. 21 “O que estes homens vieram fazer?”, perguntei.
O anjo respondeu: “Os quatro chifres são as nações que dispersaram e humilharam Judá. Agora, os ferreiros vieram para aterrorizar, derrubar e destruir essas nações”.

A Call to Return to the Lord
1 In the eighth month of the second year of Darius,(A) the word of the Lord came to the prophet Zechariah(B) son of Berekiah,(C) the son of Iddo:(D)
2 “The Lord was very angry(E) with your ancestors. 3 Therefore tell the people: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Return(F) to me,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘and I will return to you,’(G) says the Lord Almighty. 4 Do not be like your ancestors,(H) to whom the earlier prophets(I) proclaimed: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Turn from your evil ways(J) and your evil practices.’ But they would not listen or pay attention to me,(K) declares the Lord.(L) 5 Where are your ancestors now? And the prophets, do they live forever? 6 But did not my words(M) and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, overtake your ancestors?(N)
“Then they repented and said, ‘The Lord Almighty has done to us what our ways and practices deserve,(O) just as he determined to do.’”(P)
The Man Among the Myrtle Trees
7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berekiah, the son of Iddo.(Q)
8 During the night I had a vision, and there before me was a man mounted on a red(R) horse. He was standing among the myrtle trees in a ravine. Behind him were red, brown and white horses.(S)
9 I asked, “What are these, my lord?”
The angel(T) who was talking with me answered, “I will show you what they are.”(U)
10 Then the man standing among the myrtle trees explained, “They are the ones the Lord has sent to go throughout the earth.”(V)
11 And they reported to the angel of the Lord(W) who was standing among the myrtle trees, “We have gone throughout the earth and found the whole world at rest and in peace.”(X)
12 Then the angel of the Lord said, “Lord Almighty, how long(Y) will you withhold mercy(Z) from Jerusalem and from the towns of Judah,(AA) which you have been angry with these seventy(AB) years?” 13 So the Lord spoke(AC) kind and comforting words(AD) to the angel who talked with me.(AE)
14 Then the angel who was speaking to me said, “Proclaim this word: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I am very jealous(AF) for Jerusalem and Zion, 15 and I am very angry with the nations that feel secure.(AG) I was only a little angry,(AH) but they went too far with the punishment.’(AI)
16 “Therefore this is what the Lord says: ‘I will return(AJ) to Jerusalem with mercy, and there my house will be rebuilt. And the measuring line(AK) will be stretched out over Jerusalem,’ declares the Lord Almighty.(AL)
17 “Proclaim further: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘My towns will again overflow with prosperity, and the Lord will again comfort(AM) Zion and choose(AN) Jerusalem.’”(AO)
Four Horns and Four Craftsmen
18 Then I looked up, and there before me were four horns. 19 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, “What are these?”
He answered me, “These are the horns(AP) that scattered Judah, Israel and Jerusalem.”
20 Then the Lord showed me four craftsmen. 21 I asked, “What are these coming to do?”
He answered, “These are the horns that scattered Judah so that no one could raise their head, but the craftsmen have come to terrify them and throw down these horns of the nations who lifted up their horns(AQ) against the land of Judah to scatter its people.”[a](AR)
