撒迦利亞書 8
1 萬軍之耶和華的話臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah of hosts came to me, saying,
2 「萬軍之耶和華如此說：我為錫安心裏極其火熱，我為她火熱，向她的仇敵發烈怒。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great wrath.
3 耶和華如此說：我現在回到錫安，要住在耶路撒冷中。耶路撒冷必稱為誠實的城，萬軍之耶和華的山必稱為聖山。
Thus says Jehovah: I am returned to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. And Jerusalem shall be called The city of truth, and the mountain of Jehovah of hosts, The holy mountain.
4 萬軍之耶和華如此說：將來必有年老的男女坐在耶路撒冷街上，因為年紀老邁就手拿柺杖。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
5 城中街上必滿有男孩女孩玩耍。
And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets of it.
6 萬軍之耶和華如此說：到那日，這事在餘剩的民眼中看為希奇，在我眼中也看為希奇嗎？這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: If it is marvelous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my eyes? says Jehovah of hosts.
7 萬軍之耶和華如此說：我要從東方從西方救回我的民。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country.
8 我要領他們來，使他們住在耶路撒冷中。他們要作我的子民，我要作他們的上帝，都憑誠實和公義。」
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 萬軍之耶和華如此說：「當建造萬軍之耶和華的殿，立根基之日的先知所說的話，現在你們聽見，應當手裏強壯。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Let your hands be strong, ye who hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets who were in the day that the foundation of the house of Jehovah of hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.
10 那日以先，人得不着雇價，牲畜也是如此；且因敵人的緣故，出入之人不得平安，乃因我使眾人互相攻擊。
For before those days there was no wage for man, nor any wage for beast, nor was there any peace to him who went out or came in, because of the adversary. For I set all men each one against his neighbor.
11 但如今，我待這餘剩的民必不像從前。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
But now I will not be to the remnant of this people as in the former days, says Jehovah of hosts.
12 因為他們必平安撒種，葡萄樹必結果子，地土必有出產，天也必降甘露。我要使這餘剩的民享受這一切的福。
For there shall be the seed of peace. The vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its increase, and the heavens shall give their dew. And I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
13 猶大家和以色列家啊，你們從前在列國中怎樣成為可咒詛的；照樣，我要拯救你們，使人稱你們為有福的。你們不要懼怕，手要強壯。」
And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you, and ye shall be a blessing. Fear not. Let your hands be strong.
14 萬軍之耶和華如此說：「你們列祖惹我發怒的時候，我怎樣定意降禍，並不後悔。
For thus says Jehovah of hosts: As I thought to do evil to you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, says Jehovah of hosts, and I did not relent,
15 現在我照樣定意施恩與耶路撒冷和猶大家，你們不要懼怕。
so again I have thought in these days to do good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. Fear ye not.
16 你們所當行的是這樣：各人與鄰舍說話誠實，在城門口按至理判斷，使人和睦。
These are the things that ye shall do: Speak ye every man the truth with his neighbor. Execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates.
17 誰都不可心裏謀害鄰舍，也不可喜愛起假誓，因為這些事都為我所恨惡。這是耶和華說的。」
And let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbor, and love no false oath. For all these are things that I hate, says Jehovah.
18 萬軍之耶和華的話臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah of hosts came to me, saying,
19 「萬軍之耶和華如此說：四月、五月禁食的日子，七月、十月禁食的日子，必變為猶大家歡喜快樂的日子和歡樂的節期；所以你們要喜愛誠實與和平。」
Thus says Jehovah 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 truth and peace.
20 萬軍之耶和華如此說：「將來必有列國的人和多城的居民來到。
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Peoples shall yet come, and the inhabitants of many cities.
21 這城的居民必到那城，說：『我們要快去懇求耶和華的恩，尋求萬軍之耶和華；我也要去。』
And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to entreat the favor of Jehovah, and to seek Jehovah of hosts. I will go also.
22 必有列邦的人和強國的民來到耶路撒冷尋求萬軍之耶和華，懇求耶和華的恩。
Yea, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek Jehovah of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favor of Jehovah.
23 萬軍之耶和華如此說：在那些日子，必有十個人從列國諸族中出來，拉住一個猶大人的衣襟，說：『我們要與你們同去，因為我們聽見上帝與你們同在了。』」
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: In those days, ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, they shall take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.
