| 7 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 |
