Zaharija 2
1 Podigoh oči i vidjeh. I gle: čovjek, a u ruci mu mjeračko uže.
I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
2 Upitah ga: “Kamo ideš?” Odgovori mi: “Da izmjerim Jeruzalem i da vidim koliko je širok a koliko dug.”
Then I asked, "Where are you going?" He said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what is its length."
3 I gle, anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom stajaše nepomično, a drugi mu iziđe u susret
Look, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
4 i reče mu: “Trči, reci onome mladiću ovako: Jeruzalem će biti kao otvoren grad radi mnoštva ljudi i stoke koji će biti u njemu.
and said to him, "Run, speak to this young man, saying, 'Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
5 A ja ću mu - riječ je Jahvina - biti ognjen zid unaokolo i Slava njegova sred njega.”
For I,' says YHWH, 'will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.
6 “Hej! Hej! Bježite iz zemlje sjeverne” - riječ je Jahvina - “jer u sva četiri vjetra nebeska razasuo sam vas” - riječ je Jahvina!
Come. Come. Flee from the land of the north,' says YHWH; 'for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,' says YHWH.
7 “Hej, Sione, koji živiš kod kćeri babilonske, spasi se!”
'Come, Zion. Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.'
8 Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, čija me Slava izaslala k narodima koji su vas opljačkali: “Tko vas dira, dira mi zjenicu oka.
For thus says YHWH of hosts: 'For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of my eye.
9 Gle, ruku dižem na njih da plijenom budu svojim robovima.” Znat ćete tako da me posla Jahve nad Vojskama!
For, look, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that YHWH of hosts has sent me.
10 “Kliči i raduj se, kćeri sionska, jer evo, dolazim usred tebe prebivat' - riječ je Jahvina.
Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, look, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you,' says YHWH.
11 U onaj dan mnogi će narodi uz Jahvu prionuti i bit će narod moj, a ja ću prebivati usred tebe.” Znat ćeš tako da me tebi posla Jahve nad Vojskama.
Many nations shall join themselves to YHWH in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that YHWH of hosts has sent me to you.
12 I Judeja će biti baština Jahvina, njegov dio u Svetoj zemlji, i on će opet izabrati Jeruzalem.
YHWH will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
13 Tiho, ljudi svi, pred Jahvom, jer, evo, on ustaje iz svetoga Prebivališta svojega!
Be silent, all flesh, before YHWH; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation."
