你们要转向我

¹大利乌王第二年八月，耶和华的话临到易多的孙子、比利家的儿子先知撒迦利亚，说：In the eighth month of the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo, saying:

²“耶和华曾向你们列祖大大发怒。“The LORD was very angry with your fathers.

³所以你要对以色列人说，万军之耶和华如此说：你们要转向我，我就转向你们。这是万军之耶和华说的。So tell the people that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Return to Me, declares the LORD of Hosts, and I will return to you, says the LORD of Hosts.’

⁴不要效法你们列祖。从前的先知呼叫他们说，万军之耶和华如此说：‘你们要回头离开你们的恶道恶行。’他们却不听，也不顺从我。这是耶和华说的。Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Turn now from your evil ways and deeds.’ But they did not listen or pay attention to Me, declares the LORD.

⁵你们的列祖在哪里呢？那些先知能永远存活吗？Where are your fathers now? And the prophets, do they live forever?

⁶只是我的言语和律例，就是所吩咐我仆人众先知的，岂不临到你们列祖吗？他们就回头，说：‘万军之耶和华定意按我们的行动作为向我们怎样行，他已照样行了。’”But did not My words and My statutes, which I commanded My servants the prophets, overtake your fathers? They repented and said, ‘Just as the LORD of Hosts purposed to do to us according to our ways and deeds, so He has done to us.’”

异象一：番石榴树中骑红马的人

⁷大利乌第二年十一月，就是细罢特月二十四日，耶和华的话临到易多的孙子、比利家的儿子先知撒迦利亚，说：On the twenty-fourth day of the eleventh month, the month of Shebat, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Zechariah son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo.

⁸“我夜间观看，见一人骑着红马，站在洼地番石榴树中间。在他身后又有红马、黄马，和白马。”I looked out into the night and saw a man riding on a red horse. He was standing among the myrtle trees in the hollow, and behind him were red, sorrel, and white horses.

⁹我对与我说话的天使说：“主啊，这是什么意思？”他说：“我要指示你这是什么意思。”“What are these, my lord?” I asked. And the angel who was speaking with me replied, “I will show you what they are.”

¹⁰那站在番石榴树中间的人说：“这是奉耶和华差遣在遍地走来走去的。”Then the man standing among the myrtle trees explained, “They are the ones the LORD has sent to patrol the earth.”

¹¹那些骑马的对站在番石榴树中间耶和华的使者说：“我们已在遍地走来走去，见全地都安息平静。”And the riders answered the angel of the LORD who was standing among the myrtle trees, “We have patrolled the earth, and behold, all the earth is at rest and tranquil.”

¹²于是，耶和华的使者说：“万军之耶和华啊，你恼恨耶路撒冷和犹大的城邑已经七十年，你不施怜悯要到几时呢？”Then the angel of the LORD said, “How long, O LORD of Hosts, will You withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, with which You have been angry these seventy years?”

¹³耶和华就用美善的安慰话回答那与我说话的天使。So the LORD spoke kind and comforting words to the angel who was speaking with me.

¹⁴与我说话的天使对我说：“你要宣告说，万军之耶和华如此说：我为耶路撒冷为锡安，心里极其火热。Then the angel who was speaking with me said, “Proclaim this word: This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘I am very jealous for Jerusalem and Zion,

¹⁵我甚恼怒那安逸的列国，因我从前稍微恼怒我民，他们就加害过分。but I am fiercely angry with the nations that are at ease. For I was a little angry, but they have added to the calamity.’

¹⁶所以耶和华如此说：现今我回到耶路撒冷，仍施怜悯，我的殿必重建在其中，准绳必拉在耶路撒冷之上。这是万军之耶和华说的。Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I will return to Jerusalem with mercy, and there My house will be rebuilt, declares the LORD of Hosts, and a measuring line will be stretched out over Jerusalem.’

¹⁷你要再宣告说，万军之耶和华如此说：我的城邑必再丰盛发达。耶和华必再安慰锡安，拣选耶路撒冷。”Proclaim further that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘My cities will again overflow with prosperity; the LORD will again comfort Zion and choose Jerusalem.’”

异象二：四角和四个匠人

¹⁸我举目观看，见有四角。Then I looked up and saw four horns.

¹⁹我就问与我说话的天使说：“这是什么意思？”他回答说：“这是打散犹大、以色列，和耶路撒冷的角。”So I asked the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these?” And he told me, “These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.”

²⁰耶和华又指四个匠人给我看。Then the LORD showed me four craftsmen.

²¹我说：“他们来做什么呢？”他说：“这是打散犹大的角，使人不敢抬头；但这些匠人来威吓列国，打掉他们的角，就是举起打散犹大地的角。”“What are these coming to do?” I asked. And He replied, “These are the horns that scattered Judah so that no one could raise his head; but the craftsmen have come to terrify them and throw down these horns of the nations that have lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

异象三：手拿准绳的人

¹我又举目观看，见一人手拿准绳。Then I lifted up my eyes and saw a man with a measuring line in his hand.

²我说：“你往哪里去？”他对我说：“要去量耶路撒冷，看有多宽多长。”“Where are you going?” I asked. “To measure Jerusalem,” he replied, “and to determine its width and length.”

³与我说话的天使去的时候，又有一位天使迎着他来，Then the angel who was speaking with me went forth, and another angel came forward to meet him

⁴对他说：“你跑去告诉那少年人说，耶路撒冷必有人居住，好像无城墙的乡村，因为人民和牲畜甚多。and said to him, “Run and tell that young man: ‘Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the multitude of men and livestock within it.

⁵耶和华说：我要作耶路撒冷四围的火城，并要作其中的荣耀。”For I will be a wall of fire around it, declares the LORD, and I will be the glory within it.’”

从北方之地逃回

⁶耶和华说：“我从前分散你们在天的四方（原文是犹如天的四风），现在你们要从北方之地逃回。这是耶和华说的。“Get up! Get up! Flee from the land of the north,” declares the LORD, “for I have scattered you like the four winds of heaven,” declares the LORD.

⁷与巴比伦人同住的锡安民哪，应当逃脱。“Get up, O Zion! Escape, you who dwell with the Daughter of Babylon!”

相关经文 ›

⁸万军之耶和华说，在显出荣耀之后，差遣我去惩罚那掳掠你们的列国，摸你们的就是摸他眼中的瞳人。For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “After His Glory has sent Me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of His eye—

⁹看哪，我（或译：他）要向他们抡手，他们就必作服事他们之人的掳物，你们便知道万军之耶和华差遣我了。I will surely wave My hand over them, so that they will become plunder for their own servants. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me.”

我来要住在你中间

¹⁰锡安城啊，应当欢乐歌唱，因为我来要住在你中间。这是耶和华说的。“Shout for joy and be glad, O Daughter of Zion, for I am coming to dwell among you,” declares the LORD.

¹¹那时，必有许多国归附耶和华，作他（原文是我）的子民。他（原文是我）要住在你中间，你就知道万军之耶和华差遣我到你那里去了。“On that day many nations will join themselves to the LORD, and they will become My people. I will dwell among you, and you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me to you.

¹²耶和华必收回犹大作他圣地的分，也必再拣选耶路撒冷。And the LORD will take possession of Judah as His portion in the Holy Land, and He will once again choose Jerusalem.

¹³凡有血气的都当在耶和华面前静默无声；因为他兴起，从圣所出来了。Be silent before the LORD, all people, for He has roused Himself from His holy dwelling.”

异象四：大祭司约书亚换上华美衣服

¹天使（原文是他）又指给我看：大祭司约书亚站在耶和华的使者面前；撒但也站在约书亚的右边，与他作对。Then the angel showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, with Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.

²耶和华向撒但说：“撒但哪，耶和华责备你！就是拣选耶路撒冷的耶和华责备你！这不是从火中抽出来的一根柴吗？”And the LORD said to Satan: “The LORD rebukes you, Satan! Indeed, the LORD, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebukes you! Is not this man a firebrand snatched from the fire?”

³约书亚穿着污秽的衣服站在使者面前。Now Joshua was dressed in filthy garments as he stood before the angel.

⁴使者吩咐站在面前的说：“你们要脱去他污秽的衣服”；又对约书亚说：“我使你脱离罪孽，要给你穿上华美的衣服。”So the angel said to those standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes!” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have removed your iniquity, and I will clothe you with splendid robes.”

⁵我说：“要将洁净的冠冕戴在他头上。”他们就把洁净的冠冕戴在他头上，给他穿上华美的衣服，耶和华的使者在旁边站立。Then I said, “Let them put a clean turban on his head.” So a clean turban was placed on his head, and they clothed him, as the angel of the LORD stood by.

⁶耶和华的使者告诫约书亚说：Then the angel of the LORD gave this charge to Joshua:

⁷“万军之耶和华如此说：你若遵行我的道，谨守我的命令，你就可以管理我的家，看守我的院宇；我也要使你在这些站立的人中间来往。“This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘If you walk in My ways and keep My instructions, then you will govern My house and will also have charge of My courts; and I will give you a place among these who are standing here.

我仆人大卫的苗裔

⁸大祭司约书亚啊，你和坐在你面前的同伴都当听。（他们是作预兆的。）我必使我仆人大卫的苗裔发出。Hear now, O high priest Joshua, you and your companions seated before you, who are indeed a sign. For behold, I am going to bring My servant, the Branch.

⁹看哪，我在约书亚面前所立的石头，在一块石头上有七眼。万军之耶和华说：我要亲自雕刻这石头，并要在一日之间除掉这地的罪孽。See the stone I have set before Joshua; on that one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave on it an inscription, declares the LORD of Hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day.

¹⁰当那日，你们各人要请邻舍坐在葡萄树和无花果树下。这是万军之耶和华说的。”On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite your neighbor to sit under your own vine and fig tree.’”

异象五：金灯台和两棵橄榄树

¹那与我说话的天使又来叫醒我，好像人睡觉被唤醒一样。Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and woke me, as a man is awakened from his sleep.

²他问我说：“你看见了什么？”我说：“我看见了一个纯金的灯台，顶上有灯盏，灯台上有七盏灯，每盏有七个管子。“What do you see?” he asked. “I see a solid gold lampstand,” I replied, “with a bowl at the top and seven lamps on it, with seven spouts to the lamps.

³旁边有两棵橄榄树，一棵在灯盏的右边，一棵在灯盏的左边。”There are also two olive trees beside it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left.”

⁴我问与我说话的天使说：“主啊，这是什么意思？”“What are these, my lord?” I asked the angel who was speaking with me.

⁵与我说话的天使回答我说：“你不知道这是什么意思么？”我说：“主啊，我不知道。”“Do you not know what they are?” replied the angel. “No, my lord,” I answered.

乃是倚靠我的灵

⁶他对我说：“这是耶和华指示所罗巴伯的。万军之耶和华说：不是倚靠势力，不是倚靠才能，乃是倚靠我的灵方能成事。So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the LORD of Hosts.

⁷大山哪，你算什么呢？在所罗巴伯面前，你必成为平地。他必搬出一块石头，安在殿顶上。人且大声欢呼说：‘愿恩惠恩惠归与这殿（殿：或译石）！’”What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain. Then he will bring forth the capstone accompanied by shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”

⁸耶和华的话又临到我说：Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

⁹“所罗巴伯的手立了这殿的根基，他的手也必完成这工，你就知道万军之耶和华差遣我到你们这里来了。“The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will complete it. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you.

¹⁰谁藐视这日的事为小呢？这七眼乃是耶和华的眼睛，遍察全地，见所罗巴伯手拿线铊就欢喜。”For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven eyes of the LORD, which scan the whole earth, will rejoice when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.”

¹¹我又问天使说：“这灯台左右的两棵橄榄树是什么意思？”Then I asked the angel, “What are the two olive trees on the right and left of the lampstand?”

¹²我二次问他说：“这两根橄榄枝在两个流出金色油的金嘴旁边是什么意思？”And I questioned him further, “What are the two olive branches beside the two gold pipes from which the golden oil pours?”

¹³他对我说：“你不知道这是什么意思么？”我说：“主啊，我不知道。”“Do you not know what these are?” he inquired. “No, my lord,” I replied.

¹⁴他说：“这是两个受膏者站在普天下主的旁边。”So he said, “These are the two anointed ones who are standing beside the Lord of all the earth.”

异象六：飞行的书卷

¹我又举目观看，见有一飞行的书卷。Again I lifted up my eyes and saw before me a flying scroll.

²他问我说：“你看见什么？”我回答说：“我看见一飞行的书卷，长二十肘，宽十肘。”“What do you see?” asked the angel. “I see a flying scroll,” I replied, “twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”

³他对我说：“这是发出行在遍地上的咒诅。凡偷窃的必按卷上这面的话除灭；凡起假誓的必按卷上那面的话除灭。Then he told me, “This is the curse that is going out over the face of all the land, for according to one side of the scroll, every thief will be removed; and according to the other side, every perjurer will be removed.

⁴万军之耶和华说：我必使这书卷出去，进入偷窃人的家和指我名起假誓人的家，必常在他家里，连房屋带木石都毁灭了。”I will send it out, declares the LORD of Hosts, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of him who swears falsely by My name. It will remain inside his house and destroy it, down to its timbers and stones.”

异象七：量器中的妇人

⁵与我说话的天使出来，对我说：“你要举目观看，见所出来的是什么？”Then the angel who was speaking with me came forward and told me, “Now lift up your eyes and see what is approaching.”

⁶我说：“这是什么呢？”他说：“这出来的是量器。”他又说：“这是恶人在遍地的形状。”“What is it?” I asked. And he replied, “A measuring basket is going forth.” Then he continued, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”

⁷（我见有一片圆铅被举起来。）这坐在量器中的是个妇人。And behold, the cover of lead was raised, and there was a woman sitting inside the basket.

⁸天使说：“这是罪恶。”他就把妇人扔在量器中，将那片圆铅扔在量器的口上。“This is Wickedness,” he said. And he shoved her down into the basket, pushing down the lead cover over its opening.

⁹我又举目观看，见有两个妇人出来，在她们翅膀中有风，飞得甚快，翅膀如同鹳鸟的翅膀。她们将量器抬起来，悬在天地中间。Then I lifted up my eyes and saw two women approaching, with the wind in their wings. Their wings were like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.

¹⁰我问与我说话的天使说：“她们要将量器抬到哪里去呢？”“Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel who was speaking with me.

¹¹他对我说：“要往示拿地去，为它盖造房屋；等房屋齐备，就把它安置在自己的地方。”“To build a house for it in the land of Shinar,” he told me. “And when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its pedestal.”

异象八：四辆车

¹我又举目观看，见有四辆车从两山中间出来；那山是铜山。And again I lifted up my eyes and saw four chariots coming out from between two mountains—mountains of bronze.

²第一辆车套着红马，第二辆车套着黑马。The first chariot had red horses, the second black horses,

³第三辆车套着白马，第四辆车套着有斑点的壮马。the third white horses, and the fourth dappled horses—all of them strong.

⁴我就问与我说话的天使说：“主啊，这是什么意思？”So I inquired of the angel who was speaking with me, “What are these, my lord?”

⁵天使回答我说：“这是天的四风，是从普天下的主面前出来的。”And the angel told me, “These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth from their station before the Lord of all the earth.

⁶套着黑马的车往北方去，白马跟随在后；有斑点的马往南方去。The one with the black horses is going toward the land of the north, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south.”

⁷壮马出来，要在遍地走来走去。天使说：“你们只管在遍地走来走去。”它们就照样行了。As the strong horses went out, they were eager to go and patrol the earth; and the LORD said, “Go and patrol the earth.” So they patrolled the earth.

⁸他又呼叫我说：“看哪，往北方去的已在北方安慰我的心。”Then the LORD summoned me and said, “Behold, those going to the land of the north have given rest to My Spirit in the land of the north.”

天上的哈利路亚

¹此后，我听见好像群众在天上大声说：哈利路亚（就是要赞美耶和华的意思）！救恩、荣耀、权能都属乎我们的　神！After this I heard a sound like the roar of a great multitude in heaven, shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God!

²他的判断是真实公义的；因他判断了那用淫行败坏世界的大淫妇，并且向淫妇讨流仆人血的罪，给他们伸冤。For His judgments are true and just. He has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality. He has avenged the blood of His servants that was poured out by her hand.”

³又说：哈利路亚！烧淫妇的烟往上冒，直到永永远远。And a second time they called out: “Hallelujah! Her smoke rises forever and ever.”

⁴那二十四位长老与四活物就俯伏敬拜坐宝座的　神，说：阿们！哈利路亚！And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying: “Amen, Hallelujah!”

⁵有声音从宝座出来说：　神的众仆人哪，凡敬畏他的，无论大小，都要赞美我们的　神！Then a voice came from the throne, saying: “Praise our God, all you who serve Him, and those who fear Him, small and great alike!”

全能者作王了

⁶我听见好像群众的声音，众水的声音，大雷的声音，说：哈利路亚！因为主—我们的　神、全能者作王了。And I heard a sound like the roar of a great multitude, like the rushing of many waters, and like a mighty rumbling of thunder, crying out: “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.

羔羊婚娶的时候到了

⁷我们要欢喜快乐，将荣耀归给他。因为，羔羊婚娶的时候到了；新妇也自己预备好了，Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him the glory. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.

⁸就蒙恩得穿光明洁白的细麻衣。（这细麻衣就是圣徒所行的义。）She was given clothing of fine linen, bright and pure.” For the fine linen she wears is the righteous acts of the saints.

被请赴羔羊婚筵的有福了

⁹天使吩咐我说：“你要写上：凡被请赴羔羊之婚筵的有福了！”又对我说：“这是　神真实的话。”Then the angel told me to write, “Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.”

你要敬拜神

¹⁰我就俯伏在他脚前要拜他。他说：“千万不可！我和你，并你那些为耶稣作见证的弟兄同是作仆人的，你要敬拜　神。”因为预言中的灵意乃是为耶稣作见证。So I fell at his feet to worship him. But he told me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who rely on the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

骑白马的称为诚信真实

¹¹我观看，见天开了。有一匹白马，骑在马上的称为诚信真实，他审判，争战，都按着公义。Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and wages war.

¹²他的眼睛如火焰，他头上戴着许多冠冕；又有写着的名字，除了他自己没有人知道。He has eyes like blazing fire, and many royal crowns on His head. He has a name written on Him that only He Himself knows.

¹³他穿着溅了血的衣服；他的名称为　神之道。He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is The Word of God.

¹⁴在天上的众军骑着白马，穿着细麻衣，又白又洁，跟随他。The armies of heaven, dressed in fine linen, white and pure, follow Him on white horses.

¹⁵有利剑从他口中出来，可以击杀列国。他必用铁杖辖管（辖管：原文是牧）他们，并要踹全能　神烈怒的酒榨。And from His mouth proceeds a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and He will rule them with an iron scepter. He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.

¹⁶在他衣服和大腿上有名写着说：“万王之王，万主之主。”And He has a name written on His robe and on His thigh: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

神的大筵席

¹⁷我又看见一位天使站在日头中，向天空所飞的鸟大声喊着说：“你们聚集来赴　神的大筵席，Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out in a loud voice to all the birds flying overhead, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God,

¹⁸可以吃君王与将军的肉，壮士与马和骑马者的肉，并一切自主的为奴的，以及大小人民的肉。”so that you may eat the flesh of kings and commanders and mighty men, of horses and riders, of everyone slave and free, small and great.”

兽和假先知被擒拿

¹⁹我看见那兽和地上的君王，并他们的众军都聚集，要与骑白马的并他的军兵争战。Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies assembled to wage war against the One seated on the horse, and against His army.

²⁰那兽被擒拿；那在兽面前曾行奇事、迷惑受兽印记和拜兽像之人的假先知，也与兽同被擒拿。他们两个就活活地被扔在烧着硫磺的火湖里；But the beast was captured along with the false prophet, who on its behalf had performed signs deceiving those who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. Both the beast and the false prophet were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

²¹其余的被骑白马者口中出来的剑杀了；飞鸟都吃饱了他们的肉。And the rest were killed with the sword that proceeded from the mouth of the One seated on the horse. And all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.
