Zaccharias Propheta 12

1 Onus verbi Domini super Israel. Dicit Dominus extendens caelum, et fundans terram, et fingens spiritum hominis in eo:

The word of the Lord about Israel. The Lord by whom the heavens are stretched out and the bases of the earth put in place, and the spirit of man formed inside him, has said:

2 Ecce ego ponam Ierusalem superliminare crapulae omnibus populis in circuitu: sed et Iuda erit in obsidione contra Ierusalem.

See, I will make Jerusalem a cup of shaking fear to all the peoples round about, when Jerusalem is shut in.

3 Et erit: In die illa ponam Ierusalem lapidem oneris cunctis populis: omnes, qui levabunt eum, concisione lacerabuntur: et colligentur adversus eam omnia regna terrae.

And it will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a stone of great weight for all the peoples; all those who take it up will be badly wounded; and all the nations of the earth will come together against it.

4 In die illa, dicit Dominus, percutiam omnem equum in stuporem, et ascensorem eius in amentiam: et super domum Iuda aperiam oculos meos, et omnem equum populorum percutiam caecitate.

In that day, says the Lord, I will put fear into every horse and make every horseman go off his head: and my eyes will be open on the people of Judah, and I will make every horse of the peoples blind.

5 Et dicent duces Iuda in corde suo: Confortentur mihi habitatores Ierusalem in Domino exercituum Deo eorum.

And the families of Judah will say in their hearts, The people of Jerusalem have their strength in the Lord of armies, their God.

6 In die illa ponam duces Iuda sicut caminum ignis in lignis, et sicut faciem ignis in foeno: et devorabunt ad dexteram, et ad sinistram omnes populos in circuitu: et habitabitur Ierusalem rursus in loco suo in Ierusalem.

In that day I will make the families of Judah like a pot with fire in it among trees, and like a flaming stick among cut grain; they will send destruction on all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem will be living again in the place which is hers, that is, in Jerusalem.

7 Et salvabit Dominus tabernacula Iuda, sicut in principio: ut non magnifice glorietur domus David, et gloria habitantium Ierusalem contra Iuda.

And the Lord will give salvation to the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the family of David and the glory of the people of Jerusalem may not be greater than that of Judah.

8 In die illa proteget Dominus habitatores Ierusalem, et erit qui offenderit ex eis in die illa, quasi David: et domus David quasi Dei, sicut angelus Domini in conspectu eorum.

In that day the Lord will be a cover over the people of Jerusalem; and he who is feeble among them in that day will be as strong as David, and the family of David will be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them.

9 Et erit in die illa: quaeram conterere omnes Gentes, quae veniunt contra Ierusalem.

And it will come about on that day that I will take in hand the destruction of all the nations who come against Jerusalem.

10 Et effundam super domum David, et super habitatores Ierusalem spiritum gratiae, et precum: et aspicient ad me, quem confixerunt: et plangent eum planctu quasi super unigenitum, et dolebunt super eum, ut doleri solet in morte primogeniti.

And I will send down on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of prayer; and their eyes will be turned to the one who was wounded by their hands: and they will be weeping for him as for an only son, and their grief for him will be bitter, like the grief of one sorrowing for his oldest son.

11 In die illa magnus erit planctus in Ierusalem, sicut planctus Adadremmon in campo Mageddon.

In that day there will be a great weeping in Jerusalem, like the weeping of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

12 Et planget terra: familiae et familiae seorsum: familiae domus David seorsum, et mulieres eorum seorsum:

And the land will give itself to weeping, every family separately; the family of David by themselves, and their wives by themselves; the family of Nathan by themselves, and their wives by themselves;

13 familiae domus Nathan seorsum, et mulieres eorum seorsum: familiae domus Levi seorsum, et mulieres eorum seorsum: familiae Semei seorsum, et mulieres eorum seorsum.

The family of Levi by themselves, and their wives by themselves; the family of Shimei by themselves, and their wives by themselves;

14 Omnes familiae reliquae, familiae et familiae seorsum, et mulieres eorum seorsum.

And all the other families by themselves, and their wives by themselves.
