א
וַיְהִי דְּבַר-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, לֵאמֹר.
|
1
And the word of YAHOWAH of hosts came, saying:
|
|
ב
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, קִנֵּאתִי לְצִיּוֹן קִנְאָה גְדוֹלָה; וְחֵמָה גְדוֹלָה, קִנֵּאתִי לָהּ.
|
2
'Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with great fury.
|
|
ג
כֹּה, אָמַר יְהוָה, שַׁבְתִּי אֶל-צִיּוֹן, וְשָׁכַנְתִּי בְּתוֹךְ יְרוּשָׁלִָם; וְנִקְרְאָה יְרוּשָׁלִַם עִיר הָאֱמֶת, וְהַר-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת הַר הַקֹּדֶשׁ. {ס}
|
3
Thus saith YAHOWAH: I return unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and Jerusalem shall be called the city of truth; and the mountain of YAHOWAH of hosts the holy mountain.
{S}
|
|
ד
כֹּה אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, עֹד יֵשְׁבוּ זְקֵנִים וּזְקֵנוֹת, בִּרְחֹבוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָם; וְאִישׁ מִשְׁעַנְתּוֹ בְּיָדוֹ, מֵרֹב יָמִים.
|
4
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: There shall yet old men and old women sit in the broad places of Jerusalem, every man with his staff in his hand for very age.
|
|
ה
וּרְחֹבוֹת הָעִיר יִמָּלְאוּ, יְלָדִים וִילָדוֹת, מְשַׂחֲקִים, בִּרְחֹבֹתֶיהָ. {ס}
|
5
And the broad places of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the broad places thereof.
{S}
|
|
ו
כֹּה אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, כִּי יִפָּלֵא בְּעֵינֵי שְׁאֵרִית הָעָם הַזֶּה, בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם--גַּם-בְּעֵינַי, יִפָּלֵא, נְאֻם, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת. {פ}
|
6
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvellous in Mine eyes? saith YAHOWAH of hosts.
{P}
|
|
ז
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, הִנְנִי מוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת-עַמִּי מֵאֶרֶץ מִזְרָח, וּמֵאֶרֶץ, מְבוֹא הַשָּׁמֶשׁ.
|
7
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: Behold, I will save My people from the east country, and from the west country;
|
|
ח
וְהֵבֵאתִי אֹתָם, וְשָׁכְנוּ בְּתוֹךְ יְרוּשָׁלִָם; וְהָיוּ-לִי לְעָם, וַאֲנִי אֶהְיֶה לָהֶם לֵאלֹהִים--בֶּאֱמֶת, וּבִצְדָקָה. {ס}
|
8
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 Eloheem, in truth and in righteousness.
{S}
|
|
ט
כֹּה-אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, תֶּחֱזַקְנָה יְדֵיכֶם, הַשֹּׁמְעִים בַּיָּמִים הָאֵלֶּה אֵת הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה--מִפִּי, הַנְּבִיאִים, אֲשֶׁר בְּיוֹם יֻסַּד בֵּית-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת הַהֵיכָל, לְהִבָּנוֹת.
|
9
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets that were in the day that the foundation of the house of YAHOWAH of hosts was laid, even the temple, that it might be built.
|
|
י
כִּי, לִפְנֵי הַיָּמִים הָהֵם, שְׂכַר הָאָדָם לֹא נִהְיָה, וּשְׂכַר הַבְּהֵמָה אֵינֶנָּה; וְלַיּוֹצֵא וְלַבָּא אֵין-שָׁלוֹם מִן-הַצָּר, וַאֲשַׁלַּח אֶת-כָּל-הָאָדָם אִישׁ בְּרֵעֵהוּ.
|
10
For before those days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the adversary; for I set all men every one against his neighbour.
|
|
יא
וְעַתָּה, לֹא כַיָּמִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים אֲנִי, לִשְׁאֵרִית, הָעָם הַזֶּה--נְאֻם, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת.
|
11
But now I will not be unto the remnant of this people as in the former days, saith YAHOWAH of hosts.
|
|
יב
כִּי-זֶרַע הַשָּׁלוֹם, הַגֶּפֶן תִּתֵּן פִּרְיָהּ וְהָאָרֶץ תִּתֵּן אֶת-יְבוּלָהּ, וְהַשָּׁמַיִם, יִתְּנוּ טַלָּם; וְהִנְחַלְתִּי, אֶת-שְׁאֵרִית הָעָם הַזֶּה--אֶת-כָּל-אֵלֶּה.
|
12
For as the seed of peace, the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
|
|
יג
וְהָיָה כַּאֲשֶׁר הֱיִיתֶם קְלָלָה בַּגּוֹיִם, בֵּית יְהוּדָה וּבֵית יִשְׂרָאֵל--כֵּן אוֹשִׁיעַ אֶתְכֶם, וִהְיִיתֶם בְּרָכָה: אַל-תִּירָאוּ, תֶּחֱזַקְנָה יְדֵיכֶם. {ס}
|
13
And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Yisrael, so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing; fear not, but let your hands be strong.
{S}
|
|
יד
כִּי כֹה אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, כַּאֲשֶׁר זָמַמְתִּי לְהָרַע לָכֶם בְּהַקְצִיף אֲבֹתֵיכֶם אֹתִי, אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת; וְלֹא, נִחָמְתִּי.
|
14
For thus saith YAHOWAH of host: As I purposed to do evil unto you, when your fathers provoked Me, saith YAHOWAH of hosts, and I repented not;
|
|
טו
כֵּן שַׁבְתִּי זָמַמְתִּי בַּיָּמִים הָאֵלֶּה, לְהֵיטִיב אֶת-יְרוּשָׁלִַם וְאֶת-בֵּית יְהוּדָה: אַל-תִּירָאוּ.
|
15
so again do I purpose in these days to do good unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear ye not.
|
|
טז
אֵלֶּה הַדְּבָרִים, אֲשֶׁר תַּעֲשׂוּ: דַּבְּרוּ אֱמֶת, אִישׁ אֶת-רֵעֵהוּ--אֱמֶת וּמִשְׁפַּט שָׁלוֹם, שִׁפְטוּ בְּשַׁעֲרֵיכֶם.
|
16
These are the things that ye shall do: Speak ye every man the truth with his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates;
|
|
יז
וְאִישׁ אֶת-רָעַת רֵעֵהוּ, אַל-תַּחְשְׁבוּ בִּלְבַבְכֶם, וּשְׁבֻעַת שֶׁקֶר, אַל-תֶּאֱהָבוּ: כִּי אֶת-כָּל-אֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר שָׂנֵאתִי, נְאֻם-יְהוָה. {ס}
|
17
and let none of you devise evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath; for all these are things that I hate, saith YAHOWAH.'
{S}
|
|
יח
וַיְהִי דְּבַר-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, אֵלַי לֵאמֹר.
|
18
And the word of YAHOWAH of hosts came unto me, saying:
|
|
יט
כֹּה-אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, צוֹם הָרְבִיעִי וְצוֹם הַחֲמִישִׁי וְצוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי וְצוֹם הָעֲשִׂירִי יִהְיֶה לְבֵית-יְהוּדָה לְשָׂשׂוֹן וּלְשִׂמְחָה, וּלְמֹעֲדִים, טוֹבִים; וְהָאֱמֶת וְהַשָּׁלוֹם, אֱהָבוּ. {פ}
|
19
'Thus saith YAHOWAH 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 seasons; therefore love ye truth and peace.
{P}
|
|
כ
כֹּה אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת: עֹד אֲשֶׁר יָבֹאוּ עַמִּים, וְיֹשְׁבֵי עָרִים רַבּוֹת.
|
20
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities;
|
|
כא
וְהָלְכוּ יוֹשְׁבֵי אַחַת אֶל-אַחַת לֵאמֹר, נֵלְכָה הָלוֹךְ לְחַלּוֹת אֶת-פְּנֵי יְהוָה, וּלְבַקֵּשׁ, אֶת-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת; אֵלְכָה, גַּם-אָנִי.
|
21
and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying: Let us go speedily to entreat the favour of YAHOWAH, and to seek YAHOWAH of hosts; I will go also.
|
|
כב
וּבָאוּ עַמִּים רַבִּים וְגוֹיִם עֲצוּמִים, לְבַקֵּשׁ אֶת-יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת בִּירוּשָׁלִָם, וּלְחַלּוֹת, אֶת-פְּנֵי יְהוָה. {ס}
|
22
Yea, many peoples and mighty nations shall come to seek YAHOWAH of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favour of YAHOWAH.
{S}
|
|
כג
כֹּה-אָמַר, יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, בַּיָּמִים הָהֵמָּה, אֲשֶׁר יַחֲזִיקוּ עֲשָׂרָה אֲנָשִׁים מִכֹּל לְשֹׁנוֹת הַגּוֹיִם; וְהֶחֱזִיקוּ בִּכְנַף אִישׁ יְהוּדִי לֵאמֹר, נֵלְכָה עִמָּכֶם--כִּי שָׁמַעְנוּ, אֱלֹהִים עִמָּכֶם. {ס}
|
23
Thus saith YAHOWAH of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Judite, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that Eloheem is with you.'
{S}
