< زَكَريَّا 6 >

فَعُدْتُ وَرَفَعْتُ عَيْنَيَّ وَنَظَرْتُ وَإِذَا بِأَرْبَعِ مَرْكَبَاتٍ خَارِجَاتٍ مِنْ بَيْنِ جَبَلَيْنِ، وَٱلْجَبَلَانِ جَبَلَا نُحَاسٍ. ١ 1
Then I turned and lifted my eyes and I saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains; and the two mountains were made of bronze.
فِي ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ ٱلْأُولَى خَيْلٌ حُمْرٌ، وَفِي ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ خَيْلٌ دُهْمٌ، ٢ 2
The first chariot had red horses, the second chariot had black horses,
وَفِي ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ خَيْلٌ شُهْبٌ، وَفِي ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ خَيْلٌ مُنَمَّرَةٌ شُقْرٌ. ٣ 3
the third chariot had white horses, and the fourth chariot had spotted gray horses.
فَأَجَبْتُ وَقُلْتُ لِلْمَلَاكِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنِي: «مَا هَذِهِ يَا سَيِّدِي؟» ٤ 4
So I answered and said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these, my master?”
فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ وَقَالَ لِي: «هَذِهِ هِيَ أَرْوَاحُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلْأَرْبَعُ خَارِجَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْوُقُوفِ لَدَى سَيِّدِ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا. ٥ 5
The angel answered and said to me, “These are the four winds of heaven that go out from the place where they were standing before the Lord of all the earth.
ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا ٱلْخَيْلُ ٱلدُّهْمُ تَخْرُجُ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَٱلشُّهْبُ خَارِجَةٌ وَرَاءَهَا، وَٱلْمُنَمَّرَةُ تَخْرُجُ نَحْوَ أَرْضِ ٱلْجَنُوبِ». ٦ 6
The one with the black horses is going out to the north country; the white horses are going out to the west country; and the spotted gray horses are going out to the south country.”
أَمَّا ٱلشُّقْرُ فَخَرَجَتْ وَٱلْتَمَسَتْ أَنْ تَذْهَبَ لِتَتَمَشَّى فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَقَالَ: «ٱذْهَبِي وَتَمَشَّيْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ». فَتَمَشَّتْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٧ 7
These strong horses went out and sought to go and roam over the earth, so the angel said, “Go and roam over the earth!” and they left for all the earth.
فَصَرَخَ عَلَيَّ وَكَلَّمنِي قَائِلًا: «هُوَذَا ٱلْخَارِجُونَ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ قَدْ سَكَّنُوا رُوحِي فِي أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ». ٨ 8
Then he called out to me and spoke to me and said, “Look at the ones that are going out to the north country; they will appease my spirit concerning the north country.”
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٩ 9
So the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
«خُذْ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلسَّبْيِ مِنْ حَلْدَايَ وَمِنْ طُوبِيَّا وَمِنْ يَدَعْيَا ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مِنْ بَابِلَ، وَتَعَالَ أَنْتَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَٱدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ يُوشِيَّا بْنِ صَفَنْيَا. ١٠ 10
“Take an offering from the exiles—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah—and go this same day and take it into the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah, who has come from Babylon.
ثُمَّ خُذْ فِضَّةً وَذَهَبًا وَٱعْمَلْ تِيجَانًا وَضَعْهَا عَلَى رَأْسِ يَهُوشَعَ بْنِ يَهُوصَادَقَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ. ١١ 11
Then take the silver and gold, make a crown and set it upon the head of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest.
وَكَلِّمْهُ قَائِلًا: هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَائِلًا: هُوَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ «ٱلْغُصْنُ» ٱسْمُهُ. وَمِنْ مَكَانِهِ يَنْبُتُ وَيَبْنِي هَيْكَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٢ 12
Speak to him and say, 'Yahweh of hosts says this: This man, his name is Branch! He will grow up where he is and will then build the temple of Yahweh!
فَهُوَ يَبْنِي هَيْكَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَهُوَ يَحْمِلُ ٱلْجَلَالَ وَيَجْلِسُ وَيَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ، وَيَكُونُ كَاهِنًا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ، وَتَكُونُ مَشُورَةُ ٱلسَّلَامِ بَيْنَهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا. ١٣ 13
It is he who builds the temple of Yahweh, and he will be clothed with royal splendor, and will sit and rule on his throne. He will be a priest on his throne, and he will bear a counsel of peace between the two.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلتِّيجَانُ لِحَالِمَ وَلِطُوبِيَّا وَلِيَدَعْيَا وَلِحَيْنِ بْنِ صَفَنْيَا تَذْكَارًا فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٤ 14
The crown will given to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and for Hen son of Zephaniah as a memorial in the temple of Yahweh.
وَٱلْبَعِيدُونَ يَأْتُونَ وَيَبْنُونَ فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكُمْ. وَيَكُونُ، إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ سَمَعًا صَوْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ». ١٥ 15
Then those who are far off will come and build the temple of Yahweh, so you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you; for this will happen if you truly listen to the voice of Yahweh your God!'”
