- 大利烏王第四年九月、就是基斯流月、初四日、耶和華的話臨到撒迦利亞。
- 那時伯特利人已經打發沙利色、和利堅米勒、並跟從他們的人、去懇求耶和華的恩、
- 並問萬軍之耶和華殿中的祭司、和先知說、我歷年以來、在五月間哭泣齋戒、現在還當這樣行麼。
- 萬軍之耶和華的話就臨到我說、
- 你要宣告國內的眾民、和祭司、說、你們這七十年在五月七月禁食悲哀、豈是絲毫向我禁食麼.

- And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu;
- When they had sent unto the house of God Sherezer and Regemmelech, and their men, to pray before the LORD,
- And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years?
- Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying,
- Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me?
