Zechariah 8
1 And the word of the Lord of hosts came, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini exercituum dicens
2 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, I am jealous for Zion with a great jealousy, and with great fury am I jealous for her.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum zelatus sum Sion zelo magno et indignatione magna zelatus sum eam
3 Thus hath said the Lord, I return unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called, The city of truth; and the mount of the Lord of hosts, The holy mount.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum reversus sum ad Sion et habitabo in medio Hierusalem et vocabitur Hierusalem civitas veritatis et mons Domini exercituum mons sanctificatus
4 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Again shall there sit old men and old women in the streets of Jerusalem, and every one with his staff in his hand because of their multitude of years.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum adhuc habitabunt senes et anus in plateis Hierusalem et viri baculus in manu eius prae multitudine dierum
5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in her streets.
et plateae civitatis conplebuntur infantibus et puellis ludentibus in plateis eius
6 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, If it should be marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? saith the Lord of hosts.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum si difficile videbitur in oculis reliquiarum populi huius in diebus illis numquid in oculis meis difficile erit dicit Dominus exercituum
7 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will save my people from the east country and from the country of the setting of the sun;
haec dicit Dominus exercituum ecce ego salvabo populum meum de terra orientis et de terra occasus solis
8 And I will bring them [back], that they may dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be unto me for a people, and I will be unto them for a God, in truth and in righteousness.
et adducam eos et habitabunt in medio Hierusalem et erunt mihi in populum et ego ero eis in Deum in veritate et iustitia
9 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words out of the mouth of the prophets, who [spoke] on the day that the foundation of the house of the Lord of hosts was laid, when the temple was to be built.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum confortentur manus vestrae qui auditis in diebus his sermones istos per os prophetarum in die qua fundata est domus Domini exercituum ut templum aedificaretur
10 For before those days there was no reward for man, nor any reward for beast; and for him that went out or came in there was no peace, because of the oppressor: and I let loose all men, every one against his neighbor.
siquidem ante dies illos merces hominum non erat nec merces iumentorum erat neque introeunti et exeunti erat pax prae tribulatione et dimisi omnes homines unumquemque contra proximum suum
11 But now I am no more as in the former days unto the residue of this people, saith the Lord of hosts.
nunc autem non iuxta dies priores ego faciam reliquiis populi huius dicit Dominus exercituum
12 For the seed shall be undisturbed; the vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give her production, and the heavens shall give their dew: and I will bestow on the remnant of this people all these things.
sed semen pacis erit vinea dabit fructum suum et terra dabit germen suum et caeli dabunt rorem suum et possidere faciam reliquias populi huius universa haec
13 And it shall come to pass, that, in the same degree as ye have been a curse among the nations, O house of Judah, and house of Israel, so will I save you and ye shall be a blessing: fear not; let your hands be strong.
et erit sicut eratis maledictio in gentibus domus Iuda et domus Israhel sic salvabo vos et eritis benedictio nolite timere confortentur manus vestrae
14 For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, As I had purposed to do you evil, when your fathers incensed me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I bethought myself not:
quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum sicut cogitavi ut adfligerem vos cum ad iracundiam provocassent patres vestri me dicit Dominus
15 So do I again purpose in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear ye not.
et non sum misertus sic conversus cogitavi in diebus istis ut benefaciam Hierusalem et domui Iuda nolite timere
16 These are the things that ye shall do, Speak ye the truth every man to his neighbor; [with] truth and the judgment of peace judge ye in your gates;
haec sunt ergo verba quae facietis loquimini veritatem unusquisque cum proximo suo veritatem et iudicium pacis iudicate in portis vestris
17 And let none of you think evil in your hearts against his neighbor; and love not a false oath, for all these are what I hate, saith the Lord.
et unusquisque malum contra amicum suum ne cogitetis in cordibus vestris et iuramentum mendax ne diligatis omnia enim haec sunt quae odi dicit Dominus
18 And the word of the Lord of hosts came unto me, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini exercituum ad me dicens
19 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, The fast of the fourth, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth [month], shall become to the house of Judah gladness and joy, and merry festivals: only love ye the truth and peace.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum ieiunium quarti et ieiunium quinti et ieiunium septimi et ieiunium decimi erit domui Iuda in gaudium et in laetitiam et in sollemnitates praeclaras veritatem tantum et pacem diligite
20 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, [A time] shall yet be! when there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities;
haec dicit Dominus exercituum usquequo veniant populi et habitent in civitatibus multis
21 And the inhabitants of one [city] shall go to another, saying, Let us only go to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord of hosts: I too will likewise go.
et vadant habitatores unus ad alterum dicentes eamus et deprecemur faciem Domini et quaeramus Dominum exercituum vadam etiam ego
22 And many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.
et venient populi multi et gentes robustae ad quaerendum Dominum exercituum in Hierusalem et deprecandam faciem Domini
23 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, In those days [it shall happen], that ten men out of all the languages of the nations shall take hold—yea, they shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, Let us go with you; for we have heard that God is with you.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum in diebus illis in quibus adprehendent decem homines ex omnibus linguis gentium et adprehendent fimbriam viri iudaei dicentes ibimus vobiscum audivimus enim quoniam Deus vobiscum est
