< Zechariah 9 >
1 An oracle. The word of YHWH is against the land of Hadrach, and will rest upon Damascus; for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward YHWH;
耶和华的默示应验在哈得拉地大马士革 —世人和以色列各支派的眼目都仰望耶和华—
2 and Hamath, also, which borders on it; Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.
和靠近的哈马,并泰尔、西顿; 因为这二城的人大有智慧。
3 Tyre built herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver like the dust, and fine gold like the mire of the streets.
泰尔为自己修筑保障, 积蓄银子如尘沙, 堆起精金如街上的泥土。
4 Look, YHWH will dispossess her, and he will strike her power in the sea; and she will be devoured with fire.
主必赶出她, 打败她海上的权利; 她必被火烧灭。
5 Ashkelon will see it, and fear; Gaza also, and will writhe in agony; as will Ekron, for her expectation will be disappointed; and the king will perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
亚实基伦看见必惧怕; 迦萨看见甚痛苦; 以革伦因失了盼望蒙羞。 迦萨必不再有君王; 亚实基伦也不再有居民。
6 Foreigners will dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
私生子必住在亚实突; 我必除灭非利士人的骄傲。
7 I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; and he also will be a remnant for our God; and he will be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
我必除去他口中带血之肉 和牙齿内可憎之物。 他必作为余剩的人归与我们的 神, 必在犹大像族长; 以革伦人必如耶布斯人。
8 I will camp around my house against the army, that none pass through or return; and no oppressor will pass through them any more: for now I have seen with my eyes.
我必在我家的四围安营, 使敌军不得任意往来, 暴虐的人也不再经过, 因为我亲眼看顾我的家。
9 Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion. Shout, daughter of Jerusalem. Look, your king comes to you. He is righteous, and having salvation; lowly, and riding on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
锡安的民哪,应当大大喜乐; 耶路撒冷的民哪,应当欢呼。 看哪,你的王来到你这里! 他是公义的,并且施行拯救, 谦谦和和地骑着驴, 就是骑着驴的驹子。
10 I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem; and the battle bow will be cut off; and he will speak peace to the nations: and his dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
我必除灭以法莲的战车 和耶路撒冷的战马; 争战的弓也必除灭。 他必向列国讲和平; 他的权柄必从这海管到那海, 从大河管到地极。
11 As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.
锡安哪,我因与你立约的血, 将你中间被掳而囚的人从无水的坑中释放出来。
12 Turn to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
你们被囚而有指望的人都要转回保障。 我今日说明,我必加倍赐福给你们。
13 For indeed I bend Judah as a bow for me. I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, and will make you like the sword of a mighty man.
我拿犹大作上弦的弓; 我拿以法莲为张弓的箭。 锡安哪,我要激发你的众子, 攻击希腊的众子,使你如勇士的刀。
14 YHWH will be seen over them; and his arrow will go forth like lightning; and YHWH will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
耶和华必显现在他们以上; 他的箭必射出像闪电。 主耶和华必吹角, 乘南方的旋风而行。
15 YHWH of hosts will defend them; and they will destroy and overcome with sling stones; and they will drink, and roar as through wine; and they will be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
万军之耶和华必保护他们; 他们必吞灭仇敌,践踏弹石。 他们必喝血呐喊,犹如饮酒; 他们必像盛满血的碗, 又像坛的四角满了血。
16 YHWH their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people; for they are like the jewels of a crown, lifted on high over his land.
当那日,耶和华—他们的 神 必看他的民如群羊,拯救他们; 因为他们必像冠冕上的宝石, 高举在他的地以上。
17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty. Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.
他的恩慈何等大! 他的荣美何其盛! 五谷健壮少男; 新酒培养处女。
