Zechariah 12
1 This is the burden of the word of the LORD concerning Israel. Thus declares the LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, who forms the spirit of man within him:
神諭：上主論以色列的話：展開蒼天，奠定大地，在人體內造化人靈的上主的斷語：
2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples. Judah will be besieged, as well as Jerusalem.
看，我要使耶路撒冷成為四周萬民的醉杯；在耶路撒冷城被圍困寺時，猶大也必如此。
3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth gather against her, I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who would heave it away will be severely injured.
在那一天，我必使耶路撒冷成為一切民族的舉重石；凡欲舉起它的，必受重傷。地上的民族，都要聚集起來攻擊它。
4 On that day, declares the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and every rider with madness. I will keep a watchful eye on the house of Judah, but I will strike with blindness all the horses of the nations.
在那一天，──上主的斷語──我要以驚慌打搫一切戰馬，以瘋狂打搫騎兵；但對猶大家，我卻要睜開我的雙眼；我要以盲目打搫的戰馬。
5 Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts: ‘The people of Jerusalem are my strength, for the LORD of Hosts is their God.’
那時，猶大的族長心裏必要說：耶路撒冷咕民的力量在乎萬軍的上主，他們的土天主。
6 On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among the sheaves; they will consume all the peoples around them on the right and on the left, while the people of Jerusalem remain secure there.
在那一天，我必要使猶大的族長好像木柴中的火盆，有如草堆中的火把；他們必左右吞滅四周所有的民族；但耶路撒冷必仍安居在自己的原處。
7 The LORD will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the house of David and of the people of Jerusalem may not be greater than that of Judah.
上主首先要使猶大的家族勝利，免得達味家的光榮和耶路撒冷居民的光榮超過猶大。
8 On that day the LORD will defend the people of Jerusalem, so that the weakest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the LORD going before them.
在那一天，上主必要保衛耶路撒冷的居民，使他們中的衰弱者，在那一天有如達味，而達味家在他們眼前有如神，有如上主的使者。
9 So on that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
在那一天，我必設法消滅一切來攻打耶路撒冷的異民。
10 Then I will pour out on the house of David and on the people of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and prayer, and they will look on Me, the One they have pierced. They will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
我要對達味和耶路撒冷的居民傾注憐憫和哀禱的神，他們要瞻望他們所刺透的那一位：哀悼他如哀悼獨生子，痛哭他像痛哭長子。
11 On that day the wailing in Jerusalem will be as great as the wailing of Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
在那一天，在耶路撒冷必要大舉哀悼合有如在默基多平原中的哈達得黎孟的哀悼。
12 The land will mourn, each clan on its own: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,
全國將要哀悼，各家各族，成一夥，他們的女人一夥；納堂家一夥，
13 the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives,
肋未家的家族一夥，他們的女人一夥；史米家族一夥，他們的女人一夥；
14 and all the remaining clans and their wives.
其餘所有的家族，各家各族合成一夥，他們的女人一夥。
