Zechariah 12

1 The burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel. Thus says Jehovah, who stretches forth the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him:

١ وَحْيُ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ بَاسِطُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَمُؤَسِّسُ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَابِلُ رُوحِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ فِي دَاخِلِهِ:

2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also it shall be in the siege against Jerusalem.

٢ «هَأَنَذَا أَجْعَلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ كَأْسَ تَرَنُّحٍ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ حَوْلَهَا، وَأَيْضًا عَلَى يَهُوذَا تَكُونُ فِي حِصَارِ أُورُشَلِيمَ.

3 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it shall be severely wounded. And all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.

٣ وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنِّي أَجْعَلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ حَجَرًا مِشْوَالًا لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَكُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَشِيلُونَهُ يَنْشَقُّونَ شَقًّا. وَيَجْتَمِعُ عَلَيْهَا كُلُّ أُمَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

4 In that day, says Jehovah, I will smite every horse with terror, and his rider with madness. And I will open my eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness.

٤ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَضْرِبُ كُلَّ فَرَسٍ بِٱلْحَيْرَةِ وَرَاكِبَهُ بِٱلْجُنُونِ. وَأَفْتَحُ عَيْنَيَّ عَلَى بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا، وَأَضْرِبُ كُلَّ خَيْلِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ بِٱلْعَمَى.

5 And the chieftains of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Jehovah of hosts their God.

٥ فَتَقُولُ أُمَرَاءُ يَهُوذَا فِي قَلْبِهِمْ: إِنَّ سُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ قُوَّةٌ لِي بِرَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهِهِمْ.

6 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 shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left, and Jerusalem shall yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.

٦ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَجْعَلُ أُمَرَاءَ يَهُوذَا كَمِصْبَاحِ نَارٍ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَطَبِ، وَكَمِشْعَلِ نَارٍ بَيْنَ ٱلْحُزَمِ. فَيَأْكُلُونَ كُلَّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ حَوْلَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَعَنِ ٱلْيَسَارِ، فَتَثْبُتُ أُورُشَلِيمُ أَيْضًا فِي مَكَانِهَا بِأُورُشَلِيمَ.

7 Jehovah also shall 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.

٧ وَيُخَلِّصُ ٱلرَّبُّ خِيَامَ يَهُوذَا أَوَّلًا لِكَيْلَا يَتَعَاظَمَ ٱفْتِخَارُ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ وَٱفْتِخَارُ سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى يَهُوذَا.

8 In that day Jehovah shall defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And he who is feeble among them at that day shall be as David, and the house of David shall be as God, as the agent of Jehovah before them.

٨ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَسْتُرُ ٱلرَّبُّ سُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَيَكُونُ ٱلْعَاثِرُ مِنْهُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مِثْلَ دَاوُدَ، وَبَيْتُ دَاوُدَ مِثْلَ ٱللهِ، مِثْلَ مَلَاكِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَمَامَهُمْ.

9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

٩ وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنِّي أَلْتَمِسُ هَلَاكَ كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلْآتِينَ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.

10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication. And they shall look to me whom they have pierced. And they shall mourn for him, as a man mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as a man who is in bitterness for his firstborn.

١٠ «وَأُفِيضُ عَلَى بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ وَعَلَى سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ رُوحَ ٱلنِّعْمَةِ وَٱلتَّضَرُّعَاتِ، فَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيَّ، ٱلَّذِي طَعَنُوهُ، وَيَنُوحُونَ عَلَيْهِ كَنَائِحٍ عَلَى وَحِيدٍ لَهُ، وَيَكُونُونَ فِي مَرَارَةٍ عَلَيْهِ كَمَنْ هُوَ فِي مَرَارَةٍ عَلَى بِكْرِهِ.

11 In that day there shall be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

١١ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَعْظُمُ ٱلنَّوْحُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ كَنَوْحِ هَدَدْرِمُّونَ فِي بُقْعَةِ مَجِدُّونَ.

12 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,

١٢ وَتَنُوحُ ٱلْأَرْضُ عَشَائِرَ عَشَائِرَ عَلَى حِدَتِهَا: عَشِيرَةُ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ عَلَى حِدَتِهَا، وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِنَّ. عَشِيرَةُ بَيْتِ نَاثَانَ عَلَى حِدَتِهَا، وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِنَّ.

13 the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart, the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart,

١٣ عَشِيرَةُ بَيْتِ لَاوِي عَلَى حِدَتِهَا، وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِنَّ. عَشِيرَةُ شَمْعِي عَلَى حِدَتِهَا، وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِنَّ.

14 all the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

١٤ كُلُّ ٱلْعَشَائِرِ ٱلْبَاقِيَةِ عَشِيرَةٌ عَشِيرَةٌ عَلَى حِدَتِهَا، وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِنَّ.
