< Zakarias 12 >

1 Herrens Ords Profeti over Israel. Et Udsagn af Herren, som udbreder Himmelen og grundfæster Jorden og danner Menneskets Aand inden i ham:
An oracle. The word of the LORD 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 Se, jeg gør Jerusalem til en Beruselsesskaal for alle Folkeslag trindt omkring; og det skal ogsaa komme over Juda under Belejringen af Jerusalem.
"Look, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and on Judah also will it be in the siege against Jerusalem.
3 Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at jeg vil gøre Jerusalem til en Sten at løfte paa for alle Folkefærd, alle, som ville løfte paa den, skulle visselig rive sig; og alle Hedningefolk paa Jorden skulle samle sig imod den.
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 Paa den Dag, siger Herren, vil jeg slaa alle Heste med Skyhed, og den, som rider paa dem, med Vanvid; og jeg vil oplade mine Øjne over Judas Hus og slaa alle Folkenes Heste med Blindhed.
In that day," says the LORD, "I will strike every horse with terror, and his rider with madness; and I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5 Da skulle Fyrsterne i Juda sige i deres Hjerte: Jerusalems Indbyggere ere mig til Styrke i den Herre Zebaoth, deres Gud.
The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.'
6 Paa den Dag vil jeg gøre Judas Fyrster som en Ildgryde iblandt Træ og som et brændende Blus iblandt Neg, og de skulle fortære til højre og til venstre alle Folkene trindt omkring, og Jerusalem skal blive fremdeles paa sit Sted i Jerusalem.
In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves; and 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 Og Herren skal frelse Judas Telte først, for at Davids Hus's Herlighed og Jerusalems Indbyggeres Herlighed ikke skal ophøje sig over Juda.
The LORD also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.
8 Paa den Dag skal Herren beskærme Indbyggerne i Jerusalem, og det skal ske, at den, som er skrøbelig iblandt dem, skal være paa den Dag som David og Davids Hus som Guder som Herrens Engel foran deres Ansigt.
In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble among them at that day will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the LORD before them.
9 Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at jeg vil søge at ødelægge alle de Hedningefolk, som komme imod Jerusalem.
It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 Og jeg vil udgyde over Davids Hus og over Jerusalems Indbyggere Naadens og Bønnens Aand, og de skulle se til mig, som de have gennemstunget; og de skulle sørge over ham med en Sorg som over den eneste og klage bitterligt over ham, som man klager bitterligt over den førstefødte.
I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of petition; and 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 Paa den Dag skal Sorgen blive stor i Jerusalem, sopi Sorgen fra Hadad-Rimmon, i Megiddons Dal.
In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
12 Og Landet skal sørge, hver Slægt for sig; Davids Hus's Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig; Nathans Hus's Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig;
The land will mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 Levis Hus's Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig; Simeis Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig;
the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;
14 alle de øvrige Slægter, hver Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig.
all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
