1 Osmog meseca druge godine Darijeve, dođe reč Gospodnja proroku Zahariji, sinu Varahije sina Idovog govoreći: 2 Gospod se vrlo razgnevi na oce vaše. 3 Zato im reci: Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Vratite se k meni, govori Gospod nad vojskama, i ja ću se vratiti k vama, veli Gospod nad vojskama. 4 Ne budite kao oci vaši, kojima vikahu pređašnji proroci govoreći: Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Vratite se sa zlih puteva svojih i od zlih dela svojih; ali ne poslušaše niti paziše na me, govori Gospod. 5 Oci vaši gde su? I ti proroci žive li doveka? 6 Ali reči moje i uredbe moje koje zapovedah slugama svojim prorocima ne stigoše li oce vaše? Te se oni obratiše i rekoše: Kako Gospod nad vojskama beše namislio učiniti nam prema putevima našim i po delima našim, tako nam učini. 7 Dvadeset četvrtog dana jedanaestog meseca, a to je mesec Savat, druge godine Darijeve, dođe reč Gospodnja proroku Zahariji sinu Varahije sina Idovog govoreći: 8 Videh noću, a to čovek jahaše na konju riđem, i stajaše među mirtama koje behu u dolu, a za njim behu konji riđi, šareni i beli. 9 I rekoh: Šta je ovo, gospodaru moj? A anđeo koji govoraše sa mnom reče mi: Ja ću ti pokazati šta je ovo. 10 Tada čovek koji stajaše među mirtama progovori i reče: Ovo su koje posla Gospod da obilaze zemlju. 11 I oni progovoriše anđelu Gospodnjem koji stajaše među mirtama, i rekoše: Mi obiđosmo zemlju, i gle, sva zemlja počiva i mirna je. 12 Tada anđeo Gospodnji odgovori i reče: Gospode nad vojskama, kad ćeš se već smilovati Jerusalimu i gradovima Judinim, na koje se gneviš već sedamdeset godina? 13 A Gospod odgovori anđelu koji govoraše sa mnom, dobrim rečima, milim rečima. 14 I reče mi anđeo koji govoraše sa mnom: Viči i reci: Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Revnujem za Jerusalim i za Sion veoma. 15 I gnevim se silno na narode bezbrižne, jer se malo razgnevih, a oni pomogoše na zlo. 16 Zato ovako veli Gospod: Obratih se k Jerusalimu milošću, dom će se moj opet sazidati u njemu, govori Gospod nad vojskama, i uže će se zategnuti preko Jerusalima. 17 Još viči i reci: Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Opet će gradovi moji obilovati dobrom, i Gospod će opet utešiti Sion i opet će izabrati Jerusalim. 18 Tada podigoh oči svoje i videh, i gle, četiri roga. 19 I rekoh anđelu koji govoraše sa mnom: Šta je to? A on mi reče: To su rogovi koji razmetnuše Judu, Izrailja i Jerusalim. 20 Potom pokaza mi Gospod četiri kovača. 21 I rekoh: Šta su ti došli da rade? A on odgovori i reče: Ono su rogovi koji razmetnuše Judu da niko ne podiže glave; a ovi dođoše da ih uplaše, da odbiju rogove narodima, koji podigoše rog na zemlju Judinu da je razmetnu.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Turning herself she prays that God too would turn to her: as it is said, "Turn ye unto Me, and I will turn unto you, saith the Lord." Or is it to be understood according to that way of speaking, "Turn, O Lord," that is make me turn, since the soul in this her turning feels difficulty and toil?
