< 撒迦利亞書 14 >
1 看,屬上主的日子要來到,那時,人們要要你們中間分取你們的掠物。
Look, a day of the LORD comes, when your spoil will be divided in your midst.
2 我要聚集眾異民來與耶路撒冷交戰;城池必被佔領,住宅必遭洗劫,婦女必被強姦,城中半數人要被擄去;但剩下的人民必不會由城中消滅,
For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 那時,上主必要出來,像衪昔在戰爭之日作戰一樣,與這些異民交戰。
Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 在那一天,衪的腳要要站在耶路撒冷對面,即東邊的橄欖上;橄欖必由中間裂開,由東至西形成一條很大的山谷,其中一半山向北挪移,另一半即向南移動。
His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two, from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 希農山谷從哥亞一直到阿匝爾必要被填平,如在猶大王烏齊亞的時日,因地震曾被填平一樣;那時上主我的天主以及眾聖者,必與衪一同降來。
Then you shall flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel; yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with him.
It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.
7 那將是獨特的一日.只有上主知道的一天,沒有白天黑夜,夜間仍有光明。
It will be a unique day which is known to the LORD; not day, and not night; but it will come to pass, that at evening time there will be light.
8 在那一天,必有活水從耶路撒冷流出,一半流往東海,一半流往西海;冬夏川流不息。
It will happen in that day, that living waters will go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea; in summer and in winter will it be.
9 上主必做普世的君王;在那一天,只有惟一的上主,只有衪惟一的聖名。
The LORD will be King over all the earth. In that day the LORD will be one, and his name one.
10 到那一天,由革巴直到耶路撒冷南部的黎孟,整個地面都要變成平原,而耶路撒冷仍聳立在原處;由本雅明門到舊門,即角門,由哈納厏耳到君王的榨酒池,
All the land will be made like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon in the Negev. Jerusalem will be lifted up, and will dwell in her place, from Benjamin's gate to the place of the first gate, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.
11 仍有人居住;其中再沒有毀滅,人們將安居在耶路撒冷。
Men will dwell in it, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.
12 那是上主用來打擊那些凡進攻耶路撒冷的民族的災難:他們的雙腳還直立時,他們的肉就已經腐爛;他們的眼珠就已經在眼窩裏腐爛;他們的舌頭就已經在口裏腐爛。
This will be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.
13 到那一天,在他們們中必有來自上主的一場大混亂:一人抓住另一人的手,彼此動手打鬥。
It will happen in that day, that a great panic from the LORD will be among them; and they will lay hold everyone on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand will rise up against the hand of his neighbor.
14 連猶大也要在耶路撒冷作戰,四周一切異民的財物都必被聚集起來:金子、銀子、衣服,多得不可勝數。
Judah also will fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered together: gold, and silver, and clothing, in great abundance.
15 同樣,戰馬、騾子、駱駝、驢和在營盤內所有的牲畜,都必遭受與這災禍同樣的災禍。
So will be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the donkey, and of all the animals that will be in those camps, as that plague.
16 凡曾來進攻耶路撒冷的民族中尚存的人民,必將2年年上來朝拜君王,萬軍的上主,舉行帳幕節。
It will happen that everyone who is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of booths.
17 但是,凡地上各民族中,有不上耶路撒冷來朝拜君王,萬軍上主的,為他們就沒有雨露。
It will be, that whoever of all the families of the earth doesn't go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, on them there will be no rain.
18 如果埃及民族不上來參加,那麼上主打擊那不上來舉行帳幕節的民族所要遭受的懲罰。
If the family of Egypt doesn't go up and enter in, on them will be the plague with which the LORD will strike the nations that do not go up to keep the feast of booths.
19 這是埃及和凡不上來舉行帳棚節的民族所要遭受的懲罰。
This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to keep the feast of booths.
20 在那一天,馬鈴上也要刻著「祝聖與上主」;上主殿裏的鍋,也將像祭壇前的血盆那樣神聖;
In that day there will be on the bells of the horses, "HOLY TO THE LORD;" and the pots in the LORD's house will be like the bowls before the altar.
21 而且在耶路撒冷和猶大所有的鍋,都是祝聖與萬軍的上主的;凡願獻祭的人,必用這些鍋來煮祭肉。到那一天,在萬軍的上主的殿裏,必再沒有一個商人。
Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of hosts; and all those who sacrifice will come and take of them, and cook in them. In that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.
