Zakarias 12
1 Et Udsagn; HERRENS Ord om Israel. Det lyder fra HERREN, som udspændte Himmelen, grundfæstede Jorden og dannede Menneskets Aand i dets Indre:
The burden of the word of Yhwh for Israel, saith Yhwh, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Se, jeg gør Jerusalem til et berusende Bæger for alle Folkeslag trindt om; ogsaa Juda skal være med til at belejre Jerusalem.
Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 Paa hin Dag gør jeg Jerusalem til Løftesten for alle Folkeslag — enhver, som løfter den, skal rive sig paa den! Og alle Jordens Folk skal samle sig imod det.
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 Paa hin Dag, lyder det fra HERREN, slaar jeg alle Heste med Angst og Rytterne med Vanvid; Judas Hus aabner jeg Øjnene paa, men alle Folkeslagene slaar jeg med Blindhed.
In that day, saith Yhwh, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 Og Judas Stammer skal tænke: »Jerusalems Indbyggere er stærke i Hærskarers HERRE, deres Gud.«
And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in Yhwh of Armies their God.
6 Paa hin Dag gør jeg Judas Stammer til en Ildgryde mellem Brændestykker, et brændende Blus mellem Neg, og de skal æde til højre og venstre alle Folkeslag trindt om, og Jerusalem bliver roligt paa sit Sted, i Jerusalem.
In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.
7 Saa giver HERREN først Judas Telte Sejr, for at Davids Hus og Jerusalems Indbyggere ikke skal vinde større Ry end Juda.
Yhwh also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.
8 Paa hin Dag værner HERREN om Jerusalems Indbyggere, og den skrøbeligste iblandt dem skal paa hin Dag blive som David, men Davids Hus som Gud, som HERRENS Engel foran dem.
In that day shall Yhwh defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of Yhwh before them.
9 Paa hin Dag vil jeg søge at tilintetgøre alle de Folk, som kommer imod Jerusalem.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 Og saa udgyder jeg over Davids Hus og Jerusalems Indbyggere Naadens og Bønnens Aand, saa de ser hen til ham, de har gennemstunget, og sørger over ham, som man sørger over en enbaaren Søn, og holder Klage over ham, som man holder Klage over den førstefødte.
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
11 Paa hin Dag skal Sorgen blive stor i Jerusalem som Sorgen over Hadadrimmon i Megiddos Dal.
In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
12 Landet skal sørge, hver Slægt for sig, Davids Hus's Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig, Natans Hus's Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig,
And the land shall 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, Sjim'iternes Slægt for sig og deres Kvinder for sig,
The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;
14 alle de tiloversblevne Slægter hver for sig og deres Kvinder for sig.
All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
