Zechariah 9
1 The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus [shall be] the rest of it: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, [shall be] towards the LORD.
耶和華的默示應驗在哈得拉地大馬士革 －世人和以色列各支派的眼目都仰望耶和華－
2 And Hamath also shall border by it; Tyre and Zidon, though it be very wise.
和靠近的哈馬，並泰爾、西頓； 因為這二城的人大有智慧。
3 And Tyre built herself a strong hold, and amassed silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
泰爾為自己修築保障， 積蓄銀子如塵沙， 堆起精金如街上的泥土。
4 Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
主必趕出她， 打敗她海上的權利； 她必被火燒滅。
5 Ashkelon shall see [it], and fear; Gaza also [shall see it], and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
亞實基倫看見必懼怕； 迦薩看見甚痛苦； 以革倫因失了盼望蒙羞。 迦薩必不再有君王； 亞實基倫也不再有居民。
6 And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
私生子必住在亞實突； 我必除滅非利士人的驕傲。
7 And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth, even he, [shall be] for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
我必除去他口中帶血之肉 和牙齒內可憎之物。 他必作為餘剩的人歸與我們的上帝， 必在猶大像族長； 以革倫人必如耶布斯人。
8 And I will encamp about my house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with my eyes.
我必在我家的四圍安營， 使敵軍不得任意往來， 暴虐的人也不再經過， 因為我親眼看顧我的家。
9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh to thee: he [is] just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
錫安的民哪，應當大大喜樂； 耶路撒冷的民哪，應當歡呼。 看哪，你的王來到你這裏！ 他是公義的，並且施行拯救， 謙謙和和地騎着驢， 就是騎着驢的駒子。
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 heathen: and his dominion [shall be] from sea to sea, and from the river to the ends of the earth.
我必除滅以法蓮的戰車 和耶路撒冷的戰馬； 爭戰的弓也必除滅。 他必向列國講和平； 他的權柄必從這海管到那海， 從大河管到地極。
11 As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit in which [is] no water.
錫安哪，我因與你立約的血， 將你中間被擄而囚的人從無水的坑中釋放出來。
12 Turn ye to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to-day do I declare [that] I will render double to thee;
你們被囚而有指望的人都要轉回保障。 我今日說明，我必加倍賜福給你們。
13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
我拿猶大作上弦的弓； 我拿以法蓮為張弓的箭。 錫安哪，我要激發你的眾子， 攻擊希臘的眾子，使你如勇士的刀。
14 And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
耶和華必顯現在他們以上； 他的箭必射出像閃電。 主耶和華必吹角， 乘南方的旋風而行。
15 The LORD of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling-stones; and they shall drink, [and] make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, [and] as the corners of the altar.
萬軍之耶和華必保護他們； 他們必吞滅仇敵，踐踏彈石。 他們必喝血吶喊，猶如飲酒； 他們必像盛滿血的碗， 又像壇的四角滿了血。
16 And the LORD their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people: for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
當那日，耶和華－他們的上帝 必看他的民如群羊，拯救他們； 因為他們必像冠冕上的寶石， 高舉在他的地以上。
17 For how great [is] his goodness, and how great [is] his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
他的恩慈何等大！ 他的榮美何其盛！ 五穀健壯少男； 新酒培養處女。
