Zakarias 14

1 Se, en Dag kommer, HERRENS Dag, da dit Bytte skal deles i dig.

Lo, a day hath come to Jehovah, And divided hath been thy spoil in thy midst.

2 Da samler jeg alle Folkene til Angreb paa Jerusalem; Byen indtages, Husene plyndres, Kvinderne skændes, og Halvdelen af Byens Indbyggere vandrer i Landflygtighed; men Resten af Folket skal ikke udryddes af Byen.

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

3 Og HERREN drager ud og strider mod disse Folk, som han fordum stred paa Kampens Dag.

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

4 Paa hin Dag staar hans Fødder paa Oliebjerget østen for Jerusalem, og Oliebjerget skal revne midt over fra Øst til Vest og danne en vældig Dal, idet Bjergets ene Halvdel viger mod Nord, den anden mod Syd.

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

5 I skal flygte til mine Bjerges Dal, thi Bjergdalen naar til Azal. I skal fly, som I flyede for Jordskælvet i Kong Uzzija af Judas Dage. Og HERREN min Gud kommer og alle de Hellige med ham.

And ye have fled [to] the valley of My mountains, For join doth the valley of the mountains to Azal, And ye have fled as ye fled before the shaking, In the days of Uzziah king of Judah, And come in hath Jehovah my God, All holy ones [are] with Thee.

6 Paa hin Dag skal der ikke være Hede eller Kulde og Frost.

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

7 Det skal være een eneste Dag — HERREN kender den — ikke Dag og Nat; det skal være lyst ved Aftentide.

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

8 Paa hin Dag skal rindende Vand vælde frem fra Jerusalem; det halve løber ud i Havet mod Øst, det halve i Havet mod Vest, og det baade Sommer og Vinter.

And it hath come to pass, in that day, Go forth do living waters from Jerusalem, Half of them unto the eastern sea, And half of them unto the western sea, In summer and in winter it is.

9 Og HERREN skal være Konge over hele Jorden. Paa hin Dag skal HERREN være een og hans Navn eet.

And Jehovah hath become king over all the land, In that day there is one Jehovah, and His name one.

10 Og hele Landet bliver en Slette fra Geba til Rimmon i Sydlandet; men Jerusalem skal ligge højt paa sit gamle Sted. Fra Benjaminsporten til den gamle Ports Sted, til Hjørneporten, og fra Hanan'eltaarnet til de kongelige Vinperser skal det være beboet.

Changed is all the land as a plain, From Gebo to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, And she hath been high, and hath dwelt in her place, Even from the gate of Benjamin To the place of the first gate, unto the front gate, And from the tower of Hananeel, Unto the wine-vats of the king.

11 Der skal ikke mere lægges Band derpaa, og Jerusalem skal ligge trygt.

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

12 Men dette skal være den Plage, HERREN lader ramme alle de Folkeslag, som drager i Leding mod Jerusalem: han lader Kødet raadne paa dem i levende Live, Øjnene raadner i deres Øjenhuler og Tungen i deres Mund.

And this is the plague with which Jehovah Doth plague all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem, He hath 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 Paa hin Dag skal en vældig HERRENS Rædsel opstaa iblandt dem, saa de griber fat i og løfter Haand mod hverandre.

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

14 Ogsaa Juda skal stride i Jerusalem. Og alle Folkenes Rigdom skal samles trindt om fra, Guld, Sølv og Klæder i saare store Maader.

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

15 Og samme Plage skal ramme Heste, Muldyr, Kameler, Æsler og alt Kvæg i Lejrene der.

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

16 Men alle de, der bliver tilbage af alle Folkene, som kommer imod Jerusalem, skal Aar efter Aar drage derop for at tilbede Kongen, Hærskarers HERRE, og fejre Løvhyttefest.

And it hath come to pass, Every one who hath 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, Jehovah of Hosts, And to celebrate the feast of the booths.

17 Og dersom nogen af Jordens Slægter ikke drager op til Jerusalem for at tilbede Kongen, Hærskarers HERRE, skal der ikke falde Regn hos dem.

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

18 Og dersom Ægyptens Slægt ikke drager derop og kommer derhen, saa skal de rammes af den Plage, HERREN lader ramme Folkene.

And if the family of Egypt go not up, nor come in, Then not on them is the plague With which Jehovah doth plague the nations That go not up to celebrate the feast of booths.

19 Det er Straffen over Ægypterne og alle de Folk, som ikke drager op for at fejre Løvhyttefest.

This is the punishment of the sin of Egypt, And the punishment of the sin of all the nations, That go not up to celebrate the feast of booths.

20 Paa hin Dag skal der staa paa Hestenes Bjælder »Helliget HERREN«. Og Gryderne i HERRENS Hus skal være som Offerskaalene for Alteret;

In that day there is on bells of the horse, 'Holy to Jehovah,' And the pots in the house of Jehovah Have been as bowls before the altar.

21 hver Gryde i Jerusalem og Juda skal være helliget Hærskarers HERRE, saa alle de ofrende kan komme og tage af dem og koge deri. Og paa hin Dag skal der ikke mere være nogen Kana'anæer i Hærskarers HERRES Hus.

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