< Zechariah 14 >

1 BEHOLD, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
看,屬上主的日子要來到,那時,人們要要你們中間分取你們的掠物。
2 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.
我要聚集眾異民來與耶路撒冷交戰;城池必被佔領,住宅必遭洗劫,婦女必被強姦,城中半數人要被擄去;但剩下的人民必不會由城中消滅,
3 Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
那時,上主必要出來,像衪昔在戰爭之日作戰一樣,與這些異民交戰。
4 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.
在那一天,衪的腳要要站在耶路撒冷對面,即東邊的橄欖上;橄欖必由中間裂開,由東至西形成一條很大的山谷,其中一半山向北挪移,另一半即向南移動。
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: 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 saints with thee.
希農山谷從哥亞一直到阿匝爾必要被填平,如在猶大王烏齊亞的時日,因地震曾被填平一樣;那時上主我的天主以及眾聖者,必與衪一同降來。
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
在那一天,沒有炎熱,也沒有寒冷和冰霜。
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
那將是獨特的一日.只有上主知道的一天,沒有白天黑夜,夜間仍有光明。
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
在那一天,必有活水從耶路撒冷流出,一半流往東海,一半流往西海;冬夏川流不息。
9 And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.
上主必做普世的君王;在那一天,只有惟一的上主,只有衪惟一的聖名。
10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin’s gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king’s winepresses.
到那一天,由革巴直到耶路撒冷南部的黎孟,整個地面都要變成平原,而耶路撒冷仍聳立在原處;由本雅明門到舊門,即角門,由哈納厏耳到君王的榨酒池,
11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
仍有人居住;其中再沒有毀滅,人們將安居在耶路撒冷。
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
那是上主用來打擊那些凡進攻耶路撒冷的民族的災難:他們的雙腳還直立時,他們的肉就已經腐爛;他們的眼珠就已經在眼窩裏腐爛;他們的舌頭就已經在口裏腐爛。
13 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.
到那一天,在他們們中必有來自上主的一場大混亂:一人抓住另一人的手,彼此動手打鬥。
14 And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.
連猶大也要在耶路撒冷作戰,四周一切異民的財物都必被聚集起來:金子、銀子、衣服,多得不可勝數。
15 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 these tents, as this plague.
同樣,戰馬、騾子、駱駝、驢和在營盤內所有的牲畜,都必遭受與這災禍同樣的災禍。
16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
凡曾來進攻耶路撒冷的民族中尚存的人民,必將2年年上來朝拜君王,萬軍的上主,舉行帳幕節。
17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
但是,凡地上各民族中,有不上耶路撒冷來朝拜君王,萬軍上主的,為他們就沒有雨露。
18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
如果埃及民族不上來參加,那麼上主打擊那不上來舉行帳幕節的民族所要遭受的懲罰。
19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.
這是埃及和凡不上來舉行帳棚節的民族所要遭受的懲罰。
20 In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the Lord’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar.
在那一天,馬鈴上也要刻著「祝聖與上主」;上主殿裏的鍋,也將像祭壇前的血盆那樣神聖;
21 Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness 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 the Canaanite in the house of the Lord of hosts.
而且在耶路撒冷和猶大所有的鍋,都是祝聖與萬軍的上主的;凡願獻祭的人,必用這些鍋來煮祭肉。到那一天,在萬軍的上主的殿裏,必再沒有一個商人。
