- 大利乌王第四年九月,就是基斯流月初四日,耶和华的话临到撒迦利亚。
- 那时伯特利人已经打发沙利色和利坚米勒,并跟从他们的人,去恳求耶和华的恩,
- 并问万军之耶和华殿中的祭司,和先知说,我历年以来,在五月间哭泣斋戒,现在还当这样行麽。
- 万军之耶和华的话就临到我说,
- 你要宣告国内的众民,和祭司,说,你们这七十年在五月,七月禁食悲哀,岂是丝毫向我禁食麽。

- 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?
