# General Information:
|
||||
|
||||
Zechariah often wrote prophecy in the form of poetry. Hebrew poetry uses different kinds of parallelism. Here Yahweh begins speaking. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-poetry]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
|
||||
|
||||
# Sword! Rouse yourself against my shepherd
|
||||
|
||||
"You, sword! Go and attack my shepherd." Here Yahweh speaks to a sword as if it were a person. Here it represents enemies. Alternate translation: "You, enemies! Go and attack my shepherd" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-personification]])
|
||||
"You, enemies! Go and attack my shepherd"
|
||||
|
||||
# my shepherd
|
||||
|
||||
This speaks of a servant of Yahweh as if he were a shepherd. Alternate translation: "my servant who is like a shepherd" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
|
||||
"my servant who is like a shepherd"
|
||||
|
||||
# this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts
|
||||
|
||||
Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in [Zechariah 1:3](../01/03.md). Alternate translation: "this is what Yahweh of hosts has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh of hosts, have declared" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])
|
||||
"this is what Yahweh of hosts has declared" or "this is what I, Yahweh of hosts, have declared"
|
||||
|
||||
# the flock will scatter
|
||||
|
||||
The people of God are spoken of as if they were sheep. Alternate translation: "my people will run away like sheep" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
|
||||
"my people will run away like sheep"
|
||||
|
||||
# I will turn my hand against the lowly ones
|
||||
|
||||
The idiom "turn my hand against" means to act hostile towards someone. Alternate translation: "I will attack the lowly ones" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
|
||||
"I will attack the lowly ones"
|
||||
|
||||
# the lowly ones
