< Zechariah 9 >

1 The prophecy of the word of Jehovah is against the land of Hadrach, And upon Damascus shall it come down, For the eye of Jehovah is over man, And over all the tribes of Israel,
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 against Hamath, which bordereth thereon, And Tyre and Sidon, though she be 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 Though Tyre hath built her a fortress, And hath heaped up silver as dust, And fine gold as 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 Behold, the Lord will cast her out, And will smite her power into the sea, And she shall be devoured by fire.
主必赶出她, 打败她海上的权利; 她必被火烧灭。
5 Askelon shall see it and fear, Gaza also shall see and tremble, And Ekron, because her expectation shall be put to shame. The king shall perish from Gaza, And Askelon shall 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 And strangers shall 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 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, And his abominations from between his teeth; And even he shall be left for our God, And he shall be as a governor 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 And I will encamp about my house, as a garrison, Against him that passeth by and him that returneth, And no oppressor shall pass through them any more; For now have I seen with my own 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! Behold, thy king cometh to thee; He is just and victorious, Mild, and riding upon an ass, Even upon a colt, the foal of an ass.
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 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 to the nations; And his dominion shall be from sea to sea, And from the river to the ends 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 thee also, on account of thy blood-sealed covenant, I will set thy prisoners free from the pit wherein 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 Return ye to the strong-hold, ye prisoners of hope! Even this day do I declare it: I will restore double unto thee.
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 I will bend Judah as a bow for myself; As a bow will I extend Ephraim to the utmost; And I will raise up thy sons, O Zion, Against thy sons, O Greece, And make thee as 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 And Jehovah shall be seen over them. And his arrow shall go forth as lightning; And the Lord Jehovah shall blow the trumpet, And shall go forth 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 Jehovah of hosts shall defend them; And they shall devour, and trample under feet the sling-stones, And they shall drink, and shout as through wine, And they shall be filled like a bowl, 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 And Jehovah, their God, shall save them in that day; He will save his people as a flock; For they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifting themselves up in 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 How great shall be their prosperity, and how great their beauty! Corn shall make the young men thrive, and new wire the maidens.
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。
