Zechariah 14
1 Listen! It will soon be the time when Yahweh [will judge everyone]. At that time, the possessions that were taken from you [people of Jerusalem by your enemies will be returned to you, and] will be divided among you.
Så Herrans dag kommer, att du skall varda ett rof och byte.
2 [Before that happens, ] Yahweh will cause [the armies of] many [HYP] nations to attack Jerusalem. They will capture the city and steal all the valuable things from your houses and rape the women. They will take half of the people to other countries, but the other half of the people will be allowed to remain in the city.
Ty jag skall församla allahanda Hedningar emot Jerusalem till strid; och staden skall varda vunnen, husen skinnad, och qvinnor skämda; hälften af stadenom skall fången bortföras, och det öfverblefna folket skall icke utu stadenom drifvet varda.
3 Then Yahweh will go out to fight against those nations; he will fight like [SIM] [soldiers] fight in a battle.
Men Herren skall draga ut, och strida emot de samma Hedningar, såsom han plägar att strida i stridstid.
4 On that day, he will stand on Olive [Tree] Hill, east of Jerusalem. Olive [Tree] Hill will be split into two [parts], with a large valley between the parts. Half of the hill will move toward the north and half [will move] toward the south.
Ock hans fötter skola på den tiden stå på Oljobergena, som för Jerusalem ligger, östantill; och Oljoberget skall klofna midt i tu stycker, ifrån öster allt intill vester, ganska vidt ifrå hvartannat; så att den ena hälften af bergena skall gifva sig norrut, och den andra söderut.
5 People will flee through that valley which extends to the other side (OR, to Azel), like [SIM] people fled when there was an earthquake during the time that King Uzziah ruled Judah. Then Yahweh my God will come with his holy [angels].
Och I skolen fly ror denna dalenom emellan min berg; ty den dalen emellan bergen skall räcka intill Azal; och skolen fly, lika som I uti förtiden flydden för jordbäfningene i Ussia, Juda Konungs, tid. Så skall Herren, min Gud, komma, och alle helige med dig.
6 At that time, there will be no light [from the sun]; it will not become cold and there will be no frost.
På den tiden skall intet ljus vara, utan köld och frost.
7 There has been no other time like that time, and only Yahweh knows when it will happen. There will be no daytime or nighttime; there will be [light continually], [even] in the evening.
Och en dag skall varda, den Herranom kunnig är, hvarken dag eller natt, och om aftonen skall det ljust blifva.
8 At that time, running/fresh water will flow from Jerusalem. One stream will flow toward the east to the [Dead] Sea. The other stream will flow toward the west to the [Mediterranean] Sea. The water will flow [all the time], during (summer/the hot season) as well as in (winter/the cold season).
På den tiden skola rinnande vatten flyta utaf Jerusalem; hälften bortåt hafvet österut, och den andra hälften bortåt det yttersta hafvet; och det skall vara både vinter och sommar.
9 After that time, Yahweh will be the king [who rules] the entire world. [Everyone will know that] Yahweh, and only Yahweh [MTY], is the true God.
Och Herren skall vara en Konung öfver all land; på den tiden skall Herren vara en, och hans Namn ett.
10 [At that time, ] all the land [in Judah] from Geba [town at the north] to Rimmon [town far to] the south of Jerusalem, will become a plain. Jerusalem will remain raised up like it has always been. [It will extend] from the Benjamin Gate and the First Gate [northeast] to the Tower of Hananel, and to the king’s winepresses [to the southwest].
Och man skall gå i allo landena, lika som på en slättmark, ifrå Gibea intill Rimmon, söderut, till Jerusalem; ty han skall upphöjd och besutten varda i sitt rum, ifrå, BenJamins port, intill första portens rum, allt intill hörneporten; och ifrå Hananeels torn, intill Konungens press.
11 Many people will live there, and the city will never be destroyed again. It will be a safe city.
Och man skall bo derinne, och ingen spillgifning skall mer vara; ty Jerusalem skall ganska säkert bo.
12 But Yahweh will cause the people in all the nations that attacked Jerusalem to be afflicted by a (plague/severe illness). Their flesh will rot while they are still standing up. Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
Och detta skall vara plågan, der Herren all folk med plåga skall, som emot Jerusalem stridt hafva; deras kött skall förtvina; medan de ännu stå på deras fötter; och deras ögon förgås uti sin hål, och deras tunga förfaras i deras mun.
13 At that time, Yahweh will cause many people to panic. People will grab and attack each other.
På den tiden skall Herren låta komma ett stort buller ibland dem, att den ene skall fatta den andra vid handena, och lägga sina hand uppå dens andras hand.
14 [The people who live in other places in] Judah will fight to defend Jerusalem. They will collect the valuable things from the surrounding nations—a lot of gold and silver and clothes.
Ty ock Juda skall strida emot Jerusalem; på det församlas skola alla de Hedningars gods, som deromkring äro; guld, silfver och kläder, öfvermåtton mycket.
15 The same plague [that will afflict the people of other nations] will afflict their horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the other work animals in their (camps/places where they have set up their tents).
Och så skall då denna plågan gå öfver hästar, mular, camelar, åsnar, och allahanda djur, som i härenom äro, såsom denna plågan är.
16 The people of other nations who [previously] came [to fight] against Jerusalem, all those who are still alive, will return to Jerusalem every year to worship the King, the Commander of the armies of angels, and to celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
Och alle öfverblefne ibland alla Hedningar, som emot Jerusalem drogo, skola årliga komma upp, till att tillbedja Konungen, Herran Zebaoth, och till att hålla löfhyddohögtid.
17 If there are people in those nations who do not go [to Jerusalem to worship there], rain will not fall on their land.
Men hvad som helst slägte på jordene icke kommer hitupp till Jerusalem, till att tillbedja Konungen, Herran Zebaoth, öfver dem skall intet regn komma.
18 If the people of Egypt [or any other nation] do not go to Jerusalem, [they will not have any rain]. And Yahweh will cause them to experience the same plague that afflicted the [people of other] nations that did not celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
Och om de Egyptiers slägte icke uppfara, och komma, så skall öfver dem ock intet regna. Det skall vara plågan, der Herren alla Hedningar med plåga skall, som icke uppkomma till att hålla löfhyddohögtid.
19 That is how [Yahweh] will punish [the people of] Egypt and [the people of] any [other] nation who do not go [to Jerusalem] to celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters.
Ty det skall vara de Egyptiers, och alla Hedningars synd, som icke uppkomma till att hålla löfhyddohögtid.
20 At that time, [the words] ‘Dedicated to Yahweh’ will be written on the bells that are fastened to the horses. The [cooking] pots in [the courtyard of the] temple will be [sacred], like the bowls that are near the altar.
På den tiden skall hästarnas rustning vara Herranom helig; och kettlarne i Herrans hus skola vara lika som de skålar för altaret.
21 Every pot in Jerusalem and [in other places in] Judah will be dedicated to the Commander of the armies of angels. So everyone who offers sacrifices [there in Jerusalem] will be able to take some of the meat that has been brought for sacrifices, and cook it in their own pots. And at that time, people will no longer buy or sell things in [the courtyard of] the temple of the Commander of the armies of angels.
Ty alle kettlar, både i Jerusalem och Juda, skola Herranom Zebaoth helige vara; så att alle de, som offra vilja, skola komma och taga dem, och koka deruti; och ingen Cananeisk skall mer vara uti Herrans Zebaoths hus, på den tiden.
