| 1 |
In the fourth year of King Darius, the word of Yahweh came to Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, which is Chislev. | the LORD condemns insincere fasting. Zch.7.1-7 | וַיְהִי בִּשְׁנַת אַרְבַּע לְדָרְיָוֶשׁ הַמֶּלֶךְ הָיָה דְבַר־יְהוָה אֶל־זְכַרְיָה בְּאַרְבָּעָה לַחֹדֶשׁ הַתְּשִׁעִי בְּכִסְלֵו׃ |
| 2 |
Now the people of Bethel had sent Sharezer and Regem-melech and their men, to entreat the favour of Yahweh, | | וַיִּשְׁלַח בֵּית־אֵל שַׂר־אֶצֶר וְרֶגֶם מֶלֶךְ וַאֲנָשָׁיו לְחַלֹּות אֶת־פְּנֵי יְהוָה׃ |
| 3 |
and to ask the priests of the house of Yahweh of hosts and the prophets, "Should I mourn and fast in the fifth month, as I have done for so many years?" | | לֵאמֹר אֶל־הַכֹּהֲנִים אֲשֶׁר לְבֵית־יְהוָה צְבָאֹות וְאֶל־הַנְּבִיאִים לֵאמֹר הַאֶבְכֶּה בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַחֲמִשִׁי הִנָּזֵר כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתִי זֶה כַּמֶּה שָׁנִים׃ ף |
| 4 |
Then the word of Yahweh of hosts came to me; | | וַיְהִי דְּבַר־יְהוָה צְבָאֹות אֵלַי לֵאמֹר׃ |
| 5 |
"Say to all the people of the land and the priests, When you fasted and mourned in the fifth month and in the seventh, for these seventy years, was it for me that you fasted? | | אֱמֹר אֶל־כָּל־עַם הָאָרֶץ וְאֶל־הַכֹּהֲנִים לֵאמֹר כִּי־צַמְתֶּם וְסָפֹוד בַּחֲמִישִׁי וּבַשְּׁבִיעִי וְזֶה שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה הֲצֹום צַמְתֻּנִי אָנִי׃ |
| 6 |
And when you eat and when you drink, do you not eat for yourselves and drink for yourselves? | | וְכִי תֹאכְלוּ וְכִי תִשְׁתּוּ הֲלֹוא אַתֶּם הָאֹכְלִים וְאַתֶּם הַשֹּׁתִים׃ |
| 7 |
When Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, with her cities round about her, and the South and the lowland were inhabited, were not these the words which Yahweh proclaimed by the former prophets?" | | הֲלֹוא אֶת־הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר קָרָא יְהוָה בְּיַד הַנְּבִיאִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים בִּהְיֹות יְרוּשָׁלִַם יֹשֶׁבֶת וּשְׁלֵוָה וְעָרֶיהָ סְבִיבֹתֶיהָ וְהַנֶּגֶב וְהַשְּׁפֵלָה יֹשֵׁב׃ ף |
| 8 |
And the word of Yahweh came to Zechariah, saying, | The cause of the Exile. Zch.7.8-14 | וַיְהִי דְּבַר־יְהוָה אֶל־זְכַרְיָה לֵאמֹר׃ |
| 9 |
"Thus says Yahweh of hosts, Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy each to his brother, | | כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות לֵאמֹר מִשְׁפַּט אֱמֶת שְׁפֹטוּ וְחֶסֶד וְרַחֲמִים עֲשׂוּ אִישׁ אֶת־אָחִיו׃ |
| 10 |
do not oppress the widow, the fatherless, the sojourner, or the poor; and let none of you devise evil against his brother in your heart." | | וְאַלְמָנָה וְיָתֹום גֵּר וְעָנִי אַל־תַּעֲשֹׁקוּ וְרָעַת אִישׁ אָחִיו אַל־תַּחְשְׁבוּ בִּלְבַבְכֶם׃ |
| 11 |
But they refused to hearken, and turned a stubborn shoulder, and stopped their ears that they might not hear. | | וַיְמָאֲנוּ לְהַקְשִׁיב וַיִּתְּנוּ כָתֵף סֹרָרֶת וְאָזְנֵיהֶם הִכְבִּידוּ מִשְּׁמֹועַ׃ |
| 12 |
They made their hearts like adamant lest they should hear the law and the words which Yahweh of hosts had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets. Therefore great wrath came from Yahweh of hosts. | | וְלִבָּם שָׂמוּ שָׁמִיר מִשְּׁמֹועַ אֶת־הַתֹּורָה וְאֶת־הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר שָׁלַח יְהוָה צְבָאֹות בְּרוּחֹו בְּיַד הַנְּבִיאִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים וַיְהִי קֶצֶף גָּדֹול מֵאֵת יְהוָה צְבָאֹות׃ |
| 13 |
"As I called, and they would not hear, so they called, and I would not hear," says Yahweh of hosts, | | וַיְהִי כַאֲשֶׁר־קָרָא וְלֹא שָׁמֵעוּ כֵּן יִקְרְאוּ וְלֹא אֶשְׁמָע אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֹות׃ |
| 14 |
"and I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations which they had not known. Thus the land they left was desolate, so that no one went to and fro, and the pleasant land was made desolate." | | וְאֵסָעֲרֵם עַל כָּל־הַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יְדָעוּם וְהָאָרֶץ נָשַׁמָּה אַחֲרֵיהֶם מֵעֹבֵר וּמִשָּׁב וַיָּשִׂימוּ אֶרֶץ־חֶמְדָּה לְשַׁמָּה׃ ף |
