< 撒迦利亚书 12 >

1 耶和华论以色列的默示。 铺张诸天、建立地基、造人里面之灵的耶和华说:
A revelation of the LORD’s word concerning Israel: The LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him says:
2 “我必使耶路撒冷被围困的时候,向四围列国的民成为令人昏醉的杯;这默示也论到犹大。
“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and it will also be on Judah in the siege against Jerusalem.
3 那日,我必使耶路撒冷向聚集攻击他的万民当作一块重石头;凡举起的必受重伤。
It will happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.
4 耶和华说:到那日,我必使一切马匹惊惶,使骑马的颠狂。我必看顾犹大家,使列国的一切马匹瞎眼。
In that day,” says the LORD, “I will strike every horse with terror and his rider with madness. I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5 犹大的族长必心里说:‘耶路撒冷的居民倚靠万军之耶和华—他们的 神,就作我们的能力。’
The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of Armies their God.’
6 “那日,我必使犹大的族长如火盆在木柴中,又如火把在禾捆里;他们必左右烧灭四围列国的民。耶路撒冷人必仍住本处,就是耶路撒冷。
In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire amongst wood, and like a flaming torch amongst sheaves. They will devour all the surrounding peoples on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.
7 “耶和华必先拯救犹大的帐棚,免得大卫家的荣耀和耶路撒冷居民的荣耀胜过犹大。
The LORD also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of David’s house and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.
8 那日,耶和华必保护耶路撒冷的居民。他们中间软弱的必如大卫;大卫的家必如 神,如行在他们前面之耶和华的使者。
In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble amongst them at that day will be like David, and David’s house will be like God, like the LORD’s angel before them.
9 那日,我必定意灭绝来攻击耶路撒冷各国的民。
It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 “我必将那施恩叫人恳求的灵,浇灌大卫家和耶路撒冷的居民。他们必仰望我,就是他们所扎的;必为我悲哀,如丧独生子,又为我愁苦,如丧长子。
I will pour on David’s house and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplication. They will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for his firstborn.
11 那日,耶路撒冷必有大大的悲哀,如米吉多平原之哈达临门的悲哀。
In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
12 境内一家一家地都必悲哀。大卫家,男的独在一处,女的独在一处。拿单家,男的独在一处,女的独在一处。
The land will mourn, every family apart; the family of David’s house apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 利未家,男的独在一处,女的独在一处。示每家,男的独在一处,女的独在一处。
the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;
14 其余的各家,男的独在一处,女的独在一处。
all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
