< Zakarias 14 >

1 Se, en Dag kommer, HERRENs Dag, da dit Bytte skal deles i dig.
Behold, a day of the LORD cometh, when thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 Da samler jeg alle Folkene til Angreb på Jerusalem; Byen indtages, Husene plyndres, Kvinderne skændes, og Halvdelen af Byens Indbyggere vandrer i Landflygtighed; men Resten af Folket skal ikke udryddes af Byen.
For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished: and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Og HERREN drager ud og strider mod disse Folk, som han fordum stred på Kampens bag.
Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 På hin Dag står hans Fødder på 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 his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, [and there shall be] a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 I skal flygte til mine Bjerges Dal, thi Bjergdalen når til Azal. I skal fly, som l flyede for Jordskælvet i Kong Uzzija af Judas Dage. Og HERREN min Gud kommer og alle de Hellige med ham.
And ye shall flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azel: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the holy ones with thee.
6 På hin Dag skal der ikke være Hede eller Kulde og Frost.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be with brightness and with gloom:
7 Det skal være een eneste Dag - HERREN kender den - ikke Dag og Nat; det skal være lyst ved Aftentide.
but it shall be one day which is known unto the LORD; not day, and not night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time there shall be light.
8 På 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 både Sommer og Vinter.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 Og HERREN skal være Konge over hele Jorden. På hin Dag skal HERREN være een og hans Navn eet.
And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall the LORD be one, and his name one.
10 Og hele Landet bliver en Slette fra Geba til Rimmon i Sydlandet; men Jerusalem skal ligge højt på sit gamle Sted. Fra Benjaminsporten til den gamle Ports Sted, til Hjørneporten, og fra Hanan'eltårnet til de kongelige Vinperser skal det være beboet.
All the land shall be turned as the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she shall be lifted up, and shall dwell in her place, from Benjamin’s gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel unto the king’s winepresses.
11 Der skal ikke mere lægges Band derpå, og Jerusalem skal ligge trygt.
And men shall dwell therein, and there shall be no more curse; but Jerusalem shall dwell safely.
12 Men dette skal være den Plage, HERREN lader ramme alle de Folkeslag, som drager i Leding mod Jerusalem: han lader Kødet rådne på dem i levende Live, Øjnene rådner i deres Øjenhuler og Tungen i deres Mund.
And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the peoples that have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their sockets, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
13 På hin Dag skal en vældig HERRENs Rædsel opstå iblandt dem, så de griber fat i og løfter Hånd mod hverandre.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.
14 Også Juda skal stride i Jerusalem. Og alle Folkenes Rigdom skal samles trindt om fra, Guld, Sølv og Klæder i såre store Måder.
And Judah also shall fight against Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the nations round about shall be gathered together, 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 shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in those camps, as this plague.
16 Men alle de, der bliver tilbage af alle Folkene, som kommer imod Jerusalem, skal År efter År drage derop for at tilbede Kongen, Hærskarers HERRE, og fejre Løvhyttefest.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
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 shall be, that whoso of [all] the families of the earth goeth not up unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, upon them there shall be no rain.
18 Og dersom Ægyptens Slægt ikke drager derop og kommer derhen, så skal de rammes af den Plage, HERREN lader ramme Folkene.
And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, neither [shall it be] upon them; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite the nations that go not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
19 Det er Straffen over Ægypterne og alle de Folk, som ikke drager op for at fejre Løvhyttefest.
This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations that go not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
20 På hin Dag skal der stå på Hestenes Bjælder "Helliget HERREN". Og Gryderne i HERRENs Hus skal være som Offerskålene for Alteret;
In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLY UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD’S house shall be like the bowls before the altar.
21 hver Gryde i Jerusalem og Juda skal være helliget Hærskarers HERRE, så alle de ofrende kan komme og tage af dem og koge deri. Og på hin Dag skal der ikke mere være nogen Kana'anæer i Hærskarers HERREs Hus.
Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holy unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.
