Zakarias 14

1 Se, en Dag kommer for Herren, og dit Bytte skal deles i din Midte.

Behold, a day has come to YHWH, And your spoil has been divided in your midst.

2 Og jeg vil sanke alle Hedningefolkene imod Jerusalem til Krigen, og Staden skal indtages og Husene plyndres og Kvinderne skændes; og Halvdelen af Staden skal gaa ud i Landflygtighed, men det overblevne af Folket skal ikke udryddes af Staden.

And I have gathered all the nations to Jerusalem to battle, And the city has been captured, And the houses have been spoiled, And the women are lain with, Half the city has gone forth in a removal, And the remnant of the people are not cut off from the city.

3 Og Herren skal drage ud og stride imod disse Hedningefolk som den Dag, da han stred paa Krigens Dag.

And YHWH has gone forth, And He has fought against those nations, As in the day of His fighting in a day of conflict.

4 Og hans Fødder skulle paa den Dag staa paa Oliebjerget, som er lige over for Jerusalem imod Østen, og Oliebjerget skal revne fra dets Midte af i Øst og Vest, saa der bliver en saare stor Dal, og Halvdelen af Bjerget skal vige imod Nord, og dets anden Halvdel imod Syd.

And His feet have stood, in that day, On the Mount of Olives, That [is] eastward before Jerusalem, And the Mount of Olives has been cleft at its midst, To the east, and to the west, a very great valley, And half of the mountain is removed toward the north, And half toward the south.

5 Og I skulle fly til mine Bjerges Dal, thi Bjergdalen skal naa til Azal, og I skulle fly, ligesom I flyede for Jordskælvet i Judas Konge Ussias's Dage; og Herren min Gud skal komme, — alle hellige med dig!

And you have fled [to] the valley of My mountains, For the valley of the mountains joins to Azal, And you have fled as you fled before the shaking, In the days of Uzziah king of Judah, And my God YHWH has come in, All holy ones [are] with You.

6 Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at der intet Lys skal være, de prægtige Himmellys skulle fordunkles.

And it has come to pass in that day, The precious light is not, it is dense darkness,

7 Og der skal være een Dag, den skal være kendt af Herren, den skal ikke være Dag og ikke Nat; og det skal ske imod Aftens Tid, at der skal blive Lys.

And there has been one day, It is known to YHWH, not day nor night, And it has been at evening-time—there is light.

8 Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at levende Vande skulle udgaa af Jerusalem, Halvdelen af dem til Havet imod Østen og Halvdelen af dem til Havet imod Vesten; det skal være baade om Sommeren og om Vinteren.

And it has come to pass in that day, Living waters go forth from Jerusalem, Half of them to the Eastern Sea, And half of them to the Western Sea, It is in summer and in winter.

9 Og Herren skal være Konge over det hele Land; paa den Dag skal Herren være een, og hans Navn eet.

And YHWH has become King over all the earth, In that day YHWH is one, and His Name one.

10 Det hele Land skal forandre sig og vorde som Sletten, fra Geba indtil Rimmon, Syd for Jerusalem; men denne skal hæve sig højt og trone paa sit Sted, fra Benjamins Port indtil den første Ports Sted, indtil Hjørneporten, og fra Hananeels Taarn indtil Kongens Vinperser.

All the land is changed as a plain, From Gebo to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, And she has been high, and has dwelt in her place, Even from the Gate of Benjamin To the place of the first gate, to the front gate, And from the Tower of Hananeel, To the wine-vats of the king.

11 Og de skulle bo i den, og Band skal ikke være ydermere, og Jerusalem skal bo tryggelig.

And they have dwelt in her, And destruction is no more, And Jerusalem has dwelt confidently.

12 Og det skal være den Plage, med hvilken Herren skal slaa alle Folkene, som have stridt imod Jerusalem: Han skal lade deres Kød tæres hen, medens de endnu staa paa deres Fødder, og deres Øjne skulle tæres hen i deres Hulninger, og deres Tunge skal tæres hen i deres Mund.

And this is the plague with which YHWH plagues all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: He has consumed away its flesh, And it is standing on its feet, And its eyes are consumed in their holes, And its tongue is consumed in their mouth.

13 Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at der skal komme en stor Forvirring fra Herren iblandt dem, saa at de skulle gribe den ene den andens Haand, og at den enes Haand skal løfte sig imod den andens Haand.

And it has come to pass in that day, A great destruction [from] YHWH is among them, And they have each seized the hand of his neighbor, And his hand has gone up against the hand of his neighbor.

14 Og Juda skal ogsaa kæmpe i Jerusalem; og Godset efter alle Hedningefolkene trindt omkring skal sankes, Guld og Sølv og Klæder i saare stor Mangfoldighed.

And also Judah is fought with in Jerusalem, And the force of all the surrounding nations has been gathered, Gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.

15 Og saadan skal Plagen være over Hestene, Mulerne, Kamelerne og Asenerne og over alle Dyrene, som findes i disse Lejre, saadan som denne Plage.

And so is the plague of the horse, of the mule, Of the camel, and of the donkey, And of all the livestock that are in these camps, As this plague.

16 Og det skal ske, at alle de overblevne af alle de Hedningefolk, som kom imod Jerusalem, skulle drage op, Aar efter Aar, for at tilbede Kongen, den Herre Zebaoth, og for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.

And it has come to pass, Everyone who has been left of all the nations, Who are coming in against Jerusalem, They have also gone up from year to year, To bow themselves to the King, YHWH of Hosts, And to celebrate the Celebration of the Shelters.

17 Og det skal ske, naar nogen af Slægterne paa Jorden ikke drager op til Jerusalem for at tilbede Kongen, den Herre Zebaoth, saa skal Regnen ikke blive dem til Del.

And it has come to pass, That he who does not go up of the families of the land to Jerusalem, To bow himself to the King, YHWH of Hosts, Even on them there is no shower.

18 Og dersom Ægypternes Slægt ikke drager op og ikke kommer, da skal den ej heller blive dem til Del; der skal komme den Plage, med hvilken Herren slaar de Hedningefolk, som ikke drage op for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.

And if the family of Egypt does not go up, nor come in, Then on them is the plague With which YHWH plagues the nations That do not go up to celebrate the Celebration of Shelters.

19 Dette skal være Ægyptens Syndestraf og alle de Hedningefolks Syndestraf, som ikke drage op for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.

This is the punishment of the sin of Egypt, And the punishment of the sin of all the nations, That do not go up to celebrate the Celebration of Shelters.

20 Paa den Dag skal der staa paa Hestenes Bjælder: „Helliget Herren‟; og Gryderne i Herrens Hus skulle være som Offerskaalerne foran Alteret.

In that day “Holy to YHWH” is [engraved] on bells of the horse, And the pots in the house of YHWH Have been as bowls before the altar.

21 Og hver Gryde i Jerusalem og i Juda skal være hellig for den Herre Zebaoth, og alle de, som ofre, skulle komme og tage af dem og koge i dem; og der skal ingen Kananit ydermere være i den Herre Zebaoths Hus paa den Dag.

And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah, Have been holy to YHWH of Hosts, And all those sacrificing have come in, And have taken of them, and boiled in them, And in that day there is no merchant anymore in the house of YHWH of Hosts!
