1 В восьмом месяце, во второй год Дария, было слово Господне к Захарии, сыну Варахиину, сыну Аддову, пророку:
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
2 прогневался Господь на отцов ваших великим гневом,
2 “Yahweh was very displeased with your fathers.
3 и ты скажи им: так говорит Господь Саваоф: обратитесь ко Мне, говорит Господь Саваоф, и Я обращусь к вам, говорит Господь Саваоф.
3 Therefore tell them, Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Return to me,’ says Yahweh of Armies, ‘and I will return to you,’ says Yahweh of Armies.
4 Не будьте такими, как отцы ваши, к которым взывали прежде бывшие пророки, говоря: "так говорит Господь Саваоф: обратитесь от злых путей ваших и от злых дел ваших"; но они не слушались и не внимали Мне, говорит Господь.
4 Don’t you be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: Yahweh of Armies says, ‘Return now from your evil ways and from your evil doings;’ but they didn’t hear nor listen to me, says Yahweh.
5 Отцы ваши - где они? да и пророки, будут ли они вечно жить?
5 Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever?
6 Но слова Мои и определения Мои, которые заповедал Я рабам Моим, пророкам, разве не постигли отцов ваших? и они обращались и говорили: "как определил Господь Саваоф поступить с нами по нашим путям и по нашим делам, так и поступил с нами".
6 But my words and my decrees, which I commanded my servants the prophets, didn’t they overtake your fathers? “Then they repented and said, ‘Just as Yahweh of Armies determined to do to us, according to our ways and according to our practices, so he has dealt with us.’”
7 В двадцать четвертый день одиннадцатого месяца, - это месяц Шеват, - во второй год Дария, было слово Господне к Захарии, сыну Варахиину, сыну Аддову, пророку:
7 On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Shebat, in the second year of Darius, Yahweh’s word came to the prophet Zechariah the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying,
8 видел я ночью: вот, муж на рыжем коне стоит между миртами, которые в углублении, а позади него кони рыжие, пегие и белые, -
8 “I had a vision in the night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in a ravine; and behind him there were red, brown, and white horses.
9 и сказал я: кто они, господин мой? И сказал мне Ангел, говоривший со мною: я покажу тебе, кто они.
9 Then I asked, ‘My lord, what are these?’” The angel who talked with me said to me, “I will show you what these are.”
10 И отвечал муж, который стоял между миртами, и сказал: это те, которых Господь послал обойти землю.
10 The man who stood among the myrtle trees answered, “They are the ones Yahweh has sent to go back and forth through the earth.”
11 И они отвечали Ангелу Господню, стоявшему между миртами, и сказали: обошли мы землю, и вот, вся земля населена и спокойна.
11 They reported to Yahweh’s angel who stood among the myrtle trees, and said, “We have walked back and forth through the earth, and behold, all the earth is at rest and in peace.”
12 И отвечал Ангел Господень и сказал: Господи Вседержителю! Доколе Ты не умилосердишься над Иерусалимом и над городами Иуды, на которые Ты гневаешься вот уже семьдесят лет?
12 Then Yahweh’s angel replied, “O Yahweh of Armies, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which you have had indignation these seventy years?”
13 Тогда в ответ Ангелу, говорившему со мною, изрек Господь слова благие, слова утешительные.
13 Yahweh answered the angel who talked with me with kind and comforting words.
14 И сказал мне Ангел, говоривший со мною: провозгласи и скажи: так говорит Господь Саваоф: возревновал Я о Иерусалиме и о Сионе ревностью великою;
14 So the angel who talked with me said to me, “Proclaim, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy.
15 и великим негодованием негодую на народы, живущие в покое; ибо, когда Я мало прогневался, они усилили зло.
15 I am very angry with the nations that are at ease; for I was but a little displeased, but they added to the calamity.”
16 Посему так говорит Господь: Я обращаюсь к Иерусалиму с милосердием; в нем соорудится дом Мой, говорит Господь Саваоф, и землемерная вервь протянется по Иерусалиму.
16 Therefore Yahweh says: “I have returned to Jerusalem with mercy. My house shall be built in it,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and a line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem.”’
17 Еще провозгласи и скажи: так говорит Господь Саваоф: снова переполнятся города Мои добром, и утешит Господь Сион, и снова изберет Иерусалим.
17 “Proclaim further, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “My cities will again overflow with prosperity, and Yahweh will again comfort Zion, and will again choose Jerusalem.”’”
18 И поднял я глаза мои и увидел: вот четыре рога.
18 I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, four horns.
19 И сказал я Ангелу, говорившему со мною: что это? И он ответил мне: это роги, которые разбросали Иуду, Израиля и Иерусалим.
19 I asked the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” He answered me, “These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”
20 Потом показал мне Господь четырех рабочих.
20 Yahweh showed me four craftsmen.
21 И сказал я: что они идут делать? Он сказал мне так: эти роги разбросали Иуду, так что никто не может поднять головы своей; а сии пришли устрашить их, сбить роги народов, поднявших рог свой против земли Иуды, чтобы рассеять ее.
21 Then I asked, “What are these coming to do?” He said, “These are the horns which scattered Judah, so that no man lifted up his head; but these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations that lifted up their horn against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

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?
