| 1 | And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, in the fourth day of the ninth month, which is Casleu. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τετάρτῳ ἔτει ἐπὶ Δαρείου τοῦ βασιλέως, ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ζαχαρίαν τετράδι τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ ἐννάτου, ὅς ἐστι Χασελεύ. |
| 2 | When Sarasar, and Rogommelech, and the men that were with him, sent to the house of God, to entreat the face of the Lord: | Καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς Βαιθὴλ, Σαρασὰρ καὶ Ἀρβεσεὲρ ὁ βασιλεὺς, καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξιλάσασθαι τὸν Κύριον, |
| 3 | To speak to the priests of the house of the Lord of hosts, and to the prophets, saying: Must I weep in the fifth month, or must I sanctify myself as I have now done for many years? | λέγων πρὸς τοὺς ἱερεῖς τοὺς ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Κυρίου παντοκράτορος, καὶ πρὸς τοὺς προφήτας, λέγων, εἰσελήλυθεν ὧδε ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ πέμπτῳ τὸ ἁγίασμα, καθότι ἐποίησεν ἤδη ἱκανὰ ἔτη. |
| 4 | And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying: | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου τῶν δυνάμεων πρὸς ἐμὲ, λέγων, |
| 5 | Speak to all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying: When you fasted, and mourned in the fifth and the seventh month for these seventy years: did you keep a fast unto me? | εἰπὸν πρὸς ἅπαντα τὸν λαὸν τῆς γῆς, καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἱερεῖς, λέγων, ἐὰν νηστεύσητε ἢ κόψησθε ἐν ταῖς πέμπταις ἢ ἐν ταῖς ἑβδόμαις, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, μὴ νηστείαν νενηστεύκατέ μοι; |
| 6 | And when you did eat and drink, did you not eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves? | Καὶ ἐὰν φάγητε ἢ πίητε, οὐκ ὑμεῖς ἔσθετε καὶ πίνετε; |
| 7 | Are not these the words which the Lord spoke by the hand of the former prophets, when Jerusalem as yet was inhabited, and was wealthy, both itself and the cities round about it, and there were inhabitants towards the south, and in the plain? | Οὐχ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι, οὓς ἐλάλησε Κύριος ἐν χερσὶ τῶν προφητῶν τῶν ἔμπροσθεν, ὅτε ἦν Ἱερουσαλὴμ κατοικουμένη, καὶ εὐθηνοῦσα, καὶ αἱ πόλεις κυκλόθεν αὐτῆς, καὶ ἡ ὀρεινὴ καὶ ἡ πεδινὴ κατῳκεῖτο; |
| 8 | And the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, saying: | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ζαχαρίαν, λέγων, |
| 9 | Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: Judge ye true judgment, and shew ye mercy and compassion every man to his brother. | τάδε λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, Κρίμα δίκαιον κρίνετε, καὶ ἔλεος καὶ οἰκτιρμὸν ποιεῖτε ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, |
| 10 | And oppress not the widow, and the fatherless, and the stranger, and the poor: and let not a man devise evil in his heart against his brother. | καὶ χήραν, καὶ ὀρφανὸν, καὶ προσήλυτον, καὶ πένητα μὴ καταδυναστεύετε, καὶ κακίαν ἕκαστος τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ μὴ μνησικακείτω ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν. |
| 11 | But they would not hearken, and they turned away the shoulder to depart: and they stopped their ears, not to hear. | Καὶ ἠπείθησαν τοῦ προσέχειν, καὶ ἔδωκαν νῶτον παραφρονοῦντα, καὶ τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν ἐβάρυναν τοῦ μὴ εἰσακούειν. |
| 12 | And they made their heart as the adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts sent in his spirit by the hand of the former prophets: so a great indignation came from the Lord of hosts. | Καὶ τὴν καρδίαν αὐτῶν ἔταξαν ἀπειθῆ τοῦ μὴ εἰσακούειν τοῦ νόμου μου, καὶ τοὺς λόγους, οὓς ἐξαπέστειλε Κύριος παντοκράτωρ ἐν πνεύματι αὐτοῦ ἐν χερσὶ τῶν προφητῶν τῶν ἔμπροσθεν· καὶ ἐγένετο ὀργὴ μεγάλη παρὰ Κυρίου παντοκράτορος. |
| 13 | And it came to pass that as he spoke, and they heard not: so shall they cry, and I will not hear, saith the Lord of hosts. | Καὶ ἔσται, ὃν τρόπον εἶπε, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσαν, οὕτως κεκράξονται, καὶ οὐ μὴ εἰσακούσω, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ. |
| 14 | And I dispersed them throughout all kingdoms, which they know not: and the land was left desolate behind them, so that no man passed through or returned: and they changed the delightful land into a wilderness. | Καὶ ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ἃ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν· καὶ ἡ γῆ ἀφανισθήσεται κατόπισθεν αὐτῶν ἐκ διοδεύοντος καὶ ἐξ ἀναστρέφοντος· καὶ ἔταξαν γῆν ἐκλεκτὴν εἰς ἀφανισμόν. |
