Douay-RheimsVulgata ClementinaSeptuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587)
1And 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.Et factum est in anno quarto Darii regis, factum est verbum Domini ad Zachariam, in quarta mensis noni, qui est Casleu.Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τετάρτῳ ἔτει ἐπὶ Δαρείου τοῦ βασιλέως, ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ζαχαρίαν τετράδι τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ ἐννάτου, ὅς ἐστι Χασελεύ.
2When Sarasar, and Rogommelech, and the men that were with him, sent to the house of God, to entreat the face of the Lord:Et miserunt ad domum Dei Sarasar et Rogommelech, et viri qui erant cum eo, ad deprecandam faciem Domini:Καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν εἰς Βαιθὴλ, Σαρασὰρ καὶ Ἀρβεσεὲρ ὁ βασιλεὺς, καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξιλάσασθαι τὸν Κύριον,
3To 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?ut dicerent sacerdotibus domus Domini exercituum, et prophetis, loquentes: Numquid flendum est mihi in quinto mense, vel sanctificare me debeo, sicut iam feci multis annis?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.
4And the word of the Lord of hosts came to me, saying:Et factum est verbum Domini exercituum ad me, dicens:Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου τῶν δυνάμεων πρὸς ἐμὲ, λέγων,
5Speak 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?Loquere ad omnem populum terrae, et ad sacerdotes, dicens: Cum ieiunaretis, et plangeretis in quinto et septimo per hos septuaginta annos, numquid ieiunium ieiunastis mihi?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;
6And when you did eat and drink, did you not eat for yourselves, and drink for yourselves?et cum comedistis et bibistis, numquid non vobis comedistis et vobismetipsis bibistis?Καὶ ἐὰν φάγητε ἢ πίητε, οὐκ ὑμεῖς ἔσθετε καὶ πίνετε;
7Are 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?numquid non sunt verba quae locutus est Dominus in manu prophetarum priorum, cum adhuc Ierusalem habitaretur ut esset opulenta, ipsa et urbes in circuitu eius, et ad austrum, et in campestribus habitaretur?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;
8And the word of the Lord came to Zacharias, saying:Et factum est verbum Domini ad Zachariam, dicens:Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ζαχαρίαν, λέγων,
9Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: Judge ye true judgment, and shew ye mercy and compassion every man to his brother.Haec ait Dominus exercituum, dicens: Iudicium verum iudicate, et misericordiam et miserationes facite, unusquisque cum fratre suo.τάδε λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, Κρίμα δίκαιον κρίνετε, καὶ ἔλεος καὶ οἰκτιρμὸν ποιεῖτε ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ,
10And 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.Et viduam, et pupillum, et advenam, et pauperem nolite calumniari: et malum vir fratri suo non cogitet in corde suo.καὶ χήραν, καὶ ὀρφανὸν, καὶ προσήλυτον, καὶ πένητα μὴ καταδυναστεύετε, καὶ κακίαν ἕκαστος τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ μὴ μνησικακείτω ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν.
11But they would not hearken, and they turned away the shoulder to depart: and they stopped their ears, not to hear.Et noluerunt attendere, et averterunt scapulam recedentem, et aures suas aggravaverunt ne audirent.Καὶ ἠπείθησαν τοῦ προσέχειν, καὶ ἔδωκαν νῶτον παραφρονοῦντα, καὶ τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν ἐβάρυναν τοῦ μὴ εἰσακούειν.
12And 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.Et cor suum posuerunt ut adamantem, ne audirent legem, et verba quae misit Dominus exercituum in spiritu suo per manum prophetarum priorum: et facta est indignatio magna a Domino exercituum.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.
13And 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.Et factum est sicut locutus est, et non audierunt: sic clamabunt et non exaudiam, dicit Dominus exercituum.Καὶ ἔσται, ὃν τρόπον εἶπε, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσαν, οὕτως κεκράξονται, καὶ οὐ μὴ εἰσακούσω, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ.
14And 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.Et dispersi eos per omnia regna quae nesciunt: et terra desolata est ab eis, eo quod non esset transiens et revertens: et posuerunt terram desiderabilem in desertum.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.

Jesus laments over Jerusalem, which kills the prophets

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
