< Zechariah 14 >
1 See, a day of the Lord is coming when they will make division of your goods taken by force before your eyes.
Se, en Dag kommer for Herren, og dit Bytte skal deles i din Midte.
2 For I will get all the nations together to make war against Jerusalem; and the town will be overcome, and the goods taken from the houses, and the women taken by force: and half the town will go away as prisoners, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the town.
Og jeg vil sanke alle Hedningefolkene imod Jerusalem til Krigen, og Staden skal indtages og Husene plyndres og Kvinderne skændes; og Halvdelen af Staden skal gaa ud i Landflygtighed, men det overblevne af Folket skal ikke udryddes af Staden.
3 Then the Lord will go out and make war against those nations, as he did in the day of the fight.
Og Herren skal drage ud og stride imod disse Hedningefolk som den Dag, da han stred paa Krigens Dag.
4 And in that day his feet will be on the Mount of Olives, which is opposite Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives will be parted in the middle to the east and to the west, forming a very great valley; and half the mountain will be moved to the north and half of it to the south.
Og hans Fødder skulle paa den Dag staa paa Oliebjerget, som er lige over for Jerusalem imod Østen, og Oliebjerget skal revne fra dets Midte af i Øst og Vest, saa der bliver en saare stor Dal, og Halvdelen af Bjerget skal vige imod Nord, og dets anden Halvdel imod Syd.
5 And the valley will be stopped ... and you will go in flight as you went in flight from the earth-shock in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah: and the Lord my God will come, and all his holy ones with him.
Og I skulle fly til mine Bjerges Dal, thi Bjergdalen skal naa til Azal, og I skulle fly, ligesom I flyede for Jordskælvet i Judas Konge Ussias's Dage; og Herren min Gud skal komme, — alle hellige med dig!
6 And in that day there will be no heat or cold or ice;
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at der intet Lys skal være, de prægtige Himmellys skulle fordunkles.
7 And it will be unbroken day, such as the Lord has knowledge of, without change of day and night, and even at nightfall it will be light.
Og der skal være een Dag, den skal være kendt af Herren, den skal ikke være Dag og ikke Nat; og det skal ske imod Aftens Tid, at der skal blive Lys.
8 And on that day living waters will go out from Jerusalem; half of them flowing to the sea on the east and half to the sea on the west: in summer and in winter it will be so.
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at levende Vande skulle udgaa af Jerusalem, Halvdelen af dem til Havet imod Østen og Halvdelen af dem til Havet imod Vesten; det skal være baade om Sommeren og om Vinteren.
9 And the Lord will be King over all the earth: in that day there will be one Lord and his name one.
Og Herren skal være Konge over det hele Land; paa den Dag skal Herren være een, og hans Navn eet.
10 And all the land will become like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she will be lifted up and be living in her place; from the doorway of Benjamin to the place of the first doorway, to the doorway of the angle, and from the tower of Hananel to the king's wine-crushing places, men will be living in her.
Det hele Land skal forandre sig og vorde som Sletten, fra Geba indtil Rimmon, Syd for Jerusalem; men denne skal hæve sig højt og trone paa sit Sted, fra Benjamins Port indtil den første Ports Sted, indtil Hjørneporten, og fra Hananeels Taarn indtil Kongens Vinperser.
11 And there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will be living without fear of danger.
Og de skulle bo i den, og Band skal ikke være ydermere, og Jerusalem skal bo tryggelig.
12 And this will be the disease which the Lord will send on all the peoples which have been warring against Jerusalem: their flesh will be wasted away while they are on their feet, their eyes will be wasted in their heads and their tongues in their mouths.
Og det skal være den Plage, med hvilken Herren skal slaa alle Folkene, som have stridt imod Jerusalem: Han skal lade deres Kød tæres hen, medens de endnu staa paa deres Fødder, og deres Øjne skulle tæres hen i deres Hulninger, og deres Tunge skal tæres hen i deres Mund.
13 And it will be on that day that a great fear will be sent among them from the Lord; and everyone will take his neighbour's hand, and every man's hand will be lifted against his neighbour's.
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at der skal komme en stor Forvirring fra Herren iblandt dem, saa at de skulle gribe den ene den andens Haand, og at den enes Haand skal løfte sig imod den andens Haand.
14 And even Judah will be fighting against Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the nations round about will be massed together, a great store of gold and silver and clothing.
Og Juda skal ogsaa kæmpe i Jerusalem; og Godset efter alle Hedningefolkene trindt omkring skal sankes, Guld og Sølv og Klæder i saare stor Mangfoldighed.
15 And the horses and the transport beasts, the camels and the asses and all the beasts in those tents will be attacked by the same disease.
Og saadan skal Plagen være over Hestene, Mulerne, Kamelerne og Asenerne og over alle Dyrene, som findes i disse Lejre, saadan som denne Plage.
16 And it will come about that everyone who is still living, of all those nations who came against Jerusalem, will go up from year to year to give worship to the King, the Lord of armies, and to keep the feast of tents.
Og det skal ske, at alle de overblevne af alle de Hedningefolk, som kom imod Jerusalem, skulle drage op, Aar efter Aar, for at tilbede Kongen, den Herre Zebaoth, og for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.
17 And it will be that if any one of all the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to give worship to the King, the Lord of armies, on them there will be no rain.
Og det skal ske, naar nogen af Slægterne paa Jorden ikke drager op til Jerusalem for at tilbede Kongen, den Herre Zebaoth, saa skal Regnen ikke blive dem til Del.
18 And if the family of Egypt does not go up or come there, they will be attacked by the disease which the Lord will send on the nations:
Og dersom Ægypternes Slægt ikke drager op og ikke kommer, da skal den ej heller blive dem til Del; der skal komme den Plage, med hvilken Herren slaar de Hedningefolk, som ikke drage op for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.
19 This will be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all the nations who do not go up to keep the feast of tents.
Dette skal være Ægyptens Syndestraf og alle de Hedningefolks Syndestraf, som ikke drage op for at højtideligholde Løvsalernes Fest.
20 On that day all the bells of the horses will be holy to the Lord, and the pots in the Lord's house will be like the basins before the altar.
Paa den Dag skal der staa paa Hestenes Bjælder: „Helliget Herren”; og Gryderne i Herrens Hus skulle være som Offerskaalerne foran Alteret.
21 And every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of armies: and all those who make offerings will come and take them for boiling their offerings: in that day there will be no more traders in the house of the Lord of armies.
Og hver Gryde i Jerusalem og i Juda skal være hellig for den Herre Zebaoth, og alle de, som ofre, skulle komme og tage af dem og koge i dem; og der skal ingen Kananit ydermere være i den Herre Zebaoths Hus paa den Dag.
