Zakarias bog 1

1992

King James Version

1 I den ottende måned i Dareios' andet regeringsår kom Herrens ord til profeten Zakarias, Berekjas søn, Iddos sønnesøn: 1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
2 Herren var vred på jeres forfædre. 2 The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
3 Du skal sige til folket: Dette siger Hærskarers Herre: Vend om til mig! siger Hærskarers Herre, så vil jeg vende om til jer, siger Hærskarers Herre. 3 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
4 I må ikke være som jeres forfædre. Dem forkyndte de tidligere profeter for og sagde: »Dette siger Hærskarers Herre: Vend dog om fra jeres onde færd og jeres onde gerninger!« Men de hørte ikke og lyttede ikke til mig, siger Herren. 4 Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the LORD.
5 Hvor er jeres forfædre? Levede profeterne evigt? 5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
6 Men mine ord og mine bud, som jeg indskærpede mine tjenere, profeterne, de nåede jeres fædre, så de vendte om og sagde: »Hærskarers Herre har gjort sådan, som han havde planlagt at gøre mod os på grund af vores færd og vores gerninger.« 6 But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said, Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us.
7 Den fireogtyvende dag i den ellevte måned, måneden shebat, i Dareios' andet regeringsår kom Herrens ord til profeten Zakarias, Berekjas søn, Iddos sønnesøn. 7 Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
8 Han sagde: I Jeg så i nat en mand sidde på en rød hest; han holdt blandt myrterne i kløften, og bag ham var der røde, rødbrune og hvide heste. 8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white.
9 Jeg spurgte: »Hvad betyder det, herre?« Den engel, der talte med mig, svarede: »Jeg vil vise dig, hvad det betyder.« 9 Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will show thee what these be.
10 Da sagde manden, der holdt blandt myrterne: »Det er dem, Herren sendte, for at de skulle drage omkring på jorden.« 10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.
11 De sagde til Herrens engel, der stod blandt myrterne: »Vi drog omkring på jorden. Hele jorden er rolig og stille.« 11 And they answered the angel of the LORD that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.
12 Da sagde Herrens engel: »Hærskarers Herre, hvor længe skal det vare, før du viser barmhjertighed mod Jerusalem og Judas byer, som du nu har været vred på i halvfjerds år?« 12 Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?
13 Herren svarede den engel, der talte med mig, med gode og trøstende ord. 13 And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words.
14 Da sagde den engel, der talte med mig: Råb: Dette siger Hærskarers Herre: Jeg brænder af stor nidkærhed for Jerusalem og for Zion, 14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 og jeg føler stor vrede mod de sorgløse folkeslag; for da jeg kun var lidt vred, fremskyndede de ulykken. 15 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Derfor siger Herren: Jeg vender tilbage til Jerusalem i barmhjertighed; mit hus skal bygges dér, siger Hærskarers Herre, Jerusalem skal måles med målesnoren. 16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
17 Råb også: Dette siger Hærskarers Herre: På ny skal alt godt strømme i mine byer, på ny trøster Herren Zion, på ny udvælger han Jerusalem. 17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
