Zechariah 9
1 The burden of the word of Jehovah, in the land of Hadrach, and [on] Damascus shall it rest; (for Jehovah hath an eye upon men, and upon all the tribes of Israel; )
神諭：上主的話臨於哈得辣客地，停在大馬士革，因為阿蘭的眼珠也像以色列的各支派一樣，是屬於上主的。
2 and also [on] Hamath [which] bordereth thereon; on Tyre and Zidon, though she be very wise.
哈瑪特也要屬於衪的版圖，還有極其明智的漆東。
3 And Tyre hath built herself a stronghold, and hath heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
提洛為自己建築了碉堡，堆積的銀子多如塵土，金子像街市上的泥土。
4 Behold, the Lord will take possession of her, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
看，吾主必要佔據她，把她的財富拋入海中；她必為火所吞滅。
5 Ashkelon shall see [it], and fear; Gazah also, and she shall be greatly pained; Ekron also, for her expectation shall be put to shame: and the king shall perish from Gazah, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
阿市克隆見了，必要害怕；迦薩也要極度戰憟，厄龍隆也是如此，因為依賴的，遭受了羞辱。
6 And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines;
迦薩的君王必要喪亡，阿市刻隆沒有人居住。當我這樣消除了培肋舍特人的傲慢，
7 and I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; but he that remaineth, he also shall belong to our God, and shall be as a leader in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
由他的口中除去血的祭肉，從他的牙齒間除去可憎的祭肉之後，他的遺民也必要歸屬於我們的天主，有如猶大中的一個家族；厄刻龍也必像耶步斯人。
8 And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of those that pass by and that return; and the exactor shall not pass through them any more: for now have I seen [it] with mine eyes.
我要我的自作營寨，防禦往來的人，不再讓殘暴者由他們中間經過，因為如今我要親眼防守。
9 Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion; shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, thy King cometh to thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
熙雍女子，妳應盡量喜樂! 耶路撒冷女子，妳應該歡呼! 看，妳君王到妳這裏來，衪是正義的，勝利的，謙遜的，騎在驢上，騎在驢駒上。
10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem; and the battle-bow shall be cut off. And he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
衪由厄弗辣因剷除戰車，從耶路撒冷除掉戰馬，作戰的弓箭也要被消滅；衪要向萬民宣佈和平，衪的權柄由這海到那海，從大河直到地極。
11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant, I will send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
妳，熙雍女子! 因了妳盟約的血，我要從無水的地牢中釋放好的俘虜。
12 Turn again to the stronghold, prisoners of hope! even to-day do I declare I will render double unto thee.
懷著希望的俘虜，必要回到妳這裏。熙雍女子! 我必雙倍償還妳在充軍之日所遭受的一切，
13 For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will raise up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and make thee like the sword of a mighty man.
因為我要以3作我張開的弓，以厄弗辣因作我弓上的箭。熙雍! 我要鼓勵妳的子民，使妳有如勇士的劍，為攻擊雅汪子民。
14 And Jehovah shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, and will march with whirlwinds of the south.
上主必要在他們上面出現，像閃電一般射出衪的箭；吾主上主必要吹起號角，乘著南方的旋風前來。
15 Jehovah of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, [and] make a noise as from wine; and they shall be filled like a bowl, like the corners of the altar.
萬軍的上主必保衛他們，使他們前進，踐踏石的人；他們必要喝他們的血，有如喝酒；飽享鮮血，有如祭壇的四角。
16 And Jehovah their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people; for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted up upon his land.
到那一天，上主他們的天主，必要拯救他們，要牧放衪的百姓，有如牧羊群；他們將如王冠上的寶石，在衪的地上閃爍。
17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maidens.
那時，此地是多麼幸福，多麼美麗! 五榖滋養少男；新酒培育少處女。
