Zechariah 8

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh of hosts saying.

I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

2 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts I am jealous for Zion jealousy great and rage great I am jealous for it.

“Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Ljubavlju ljubomornom za Sion izgaram i gnjevom velikim plamtim za nj! Vraćam se u Sion, prebivati hoću sred Jeruzalema.'

3 Thus he says Yahweh I have returned to Zion and I will dwell in [the] midst of Jerusalem and it will be called Jerusalem [the] city of faithfulness and [the] mountain of Yahweh of hosts [the] mountain of holiness.

Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Jeruzalem će se zvati Gradom vjernosti i Gorom Jahve nad Vojskama, Gorom svetosti.'

4 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts again they will sit old [men] and old [women] in [the] open places of Jerusalem and each staff his [will be] in hand his from abundance of days.

Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Starci i starice opet će posjedati po trgovima jeruzalemskim, svatko sa štapom u ruci zbog starosti prevelike.

5 And [the] open places of the city they will be filled boys and girls playing in open places its.

A gradski će se trgovi ispuniti dječacima i djevojčicama koji će se igrati na njegovim trgovima.'

6 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts if it will be difficult in [the] eyes of [the] remnant of the people this in the days those also in eyes my will it be difficult? [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.

Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Ako to bude čudo u očima Ostatka u dane one, zar će to biti čudo i u mojim očima' - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama.

7 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to save people my from [the] land of [the] east and from [the] land of [the] setting of the sun.

Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Evo spasit ću svoj narod iz zemlje istočne i iz zemlje sunčanog zapada.

8 And I will bring them and they will dwell in [the] midst of Jerusalem and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God in faithfulness and in righteousness.

Ja ću ih dovesti da se nastane usred Jeruzalema. I bit će mi narod a ja ću im biti Bog u vjernosti i pravdi.'

9 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts let them be strong hands your O those [who] hear in the days these the words these from [the] mouth of the prophets who on [the] day [when] it was founded [the] house of Yahweh of hosts the temple to be rebuilt.

Ovako Govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Neka ojačaju ruke vama koji ovih dana slušate riječi ove iz usta proroka koji prorokuje od dana kada bjehu položeni temelji Domu Jahve nad Vojskama da bi se opet sagradilo Svetište.

10 For before the days those [the] wage[s] of person not it happened and [the] wage[s] of the animal[s] [was] not it and [belonged] to the [one who] went out and to the [one who] came not peace from the opponent so I may send every person each on neighbor his.

Jer, prije ovih dana ne bijaše nadnice za čovjeka niti nadnice za živinče; niti bijaše mira od neprijatelja onome koji je izlazio ni onome koji je dolazio; puštao sam ljude jedne protiv drugih.

11 And now not like the days former I [will be] to [the] remnant of the people this [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.

Ali sada, neću biti prema Ostatku ovog naroda kao minulih dana - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama -

12 That [the] seed of peace the vine it will give fruit its and the land it will give produce its and the heavens they will give dew their and I will give as an inheritance [the] remnant of the people this all these [things].

nego ću posijati mir: loza će roditi grožđem, zemlja će davati usjeve, a nebo će davati rosu svoju. Sve ću to dati Ostatku ovoga naroda.

13 And it will be just as you were a curse among the nations O house of Judah and [the] house of Israel so I will save you and you will be a blessing may not you be afraid let them be strong hands your.

I kao što bijaste prokletstvo među narodima, dome Judin i dome Izraelov, tako ću vas spasiti da budete blagoslovom! Ne bojte se, nek' vam jake budu ruke!'

14 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts just as I planned to do harm to you when provoked to anger ancestors your me he says Yahweh of hosts and not I relented.

Jer ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: 'Kao što bijah namislio unesrećiti vas kada su me razgnjevili oci vaši - govori Jahve nad Vojskama - i nisam se pokajao,

15 So I have returned I have planned in the days these to do good to Jerusalem and [the] house of Judah may not you be afraid.

tako, promijenivši naum, u ove dane mislim usrećiti Jeruzalem i dom Judin. Ne bojte se!

16 These [are] the things which you will do speak truth each with neighbor his faithfulness and justice of peace judge in gates your.

A ovo vam je činiti: Govorite istinu jedan drugom; sudite istinito i miroljubivo na vratima gradskim!

17 And each - [the] harm of neighbor his may not you plan in heart your and an oath of falsehood may not you love for all these [are things] which I hate [the] utterance of Yahweh.

Ne snujte jedan drugome zlo u srcu; ne ljubite lažnu kletvu. Jer sve to ja mrzim' - riječ je Jahvina!”

18 And it came [the] word of Yahweh of hosts to me saying.

Dođe mi riječ Jahve nad Vojskama:

19 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] fast of the fourth [month] and [the] fast of the fifth [month] and [the] fast of the seventh [month] and [the] fast of the tenth [month] it will become for [the] house of Judah joy and gladness and appointed feasts good and truth and peace love.

“Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Post četvrtoga, post petoga, post sedmoga i post desetoga mjeseca postat će za Dom Jahvin radost, veselje i veseli blagdani. Ali ljubite istinu i mir!”

20 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts yet this: they will come peoples and [the] inhabitants of cities many.

“Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: Još će dolaziti narodi i stanovnici mnogih gradova.

21 And they will go [the] inhabitants of one [city] to one [city] saying let us go steadfastly to entreat [the] face of Yahweh and to seek Yahweh of hosts I will go also I.

Stanovnici jednoga grada ići će u drugi govoreći: 'Hajde da idemo moliti lice Jahvino i tražiti Jahvu nad Vojskama!' Ići ću i ja!

22 And they will come peoples many and nations mighty to seek Yahweh of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat [the] face of Yahweh.

I doći će mnogi puk i moćni će narodi tražiti Jahvu nad Vojskama u Jeruzalemu i moliti lice Jahvino.

23 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts in the days those that they will take hold ten people from all [the] tongues of the nations and they will take hold on [the] skirt of a person Jewish saying we want to go with you for we have heard God [is] with you.

Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama! U one će dane deset ljudi od naroda svih jezika hvatati jednog Židova za skut govoreći: 'Idemo s vama, jer čusmo da je s vama Bog.'”
