Zaccharias Propheta 12

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

The burden of a word of Jehovah on Israel. An affirmation of Jehovah, Stretching out heaven, and founding earth, And forming the spirit of man in his midst.

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

Lo, I am making Jerusalem a cup of reeling To all the peoples round about, And also against Judah it is, In the siege against Jerusalem.

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 hath come to pass, in that day, I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone to all the peoples, All loading it are completely pressed down, And gathered against it have been all nations of the earth.

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 — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do smite every horse with astonishment, And its rider with madness, And on the house of Judah I open My eyes, And every horse of the peoples I smite with blindness.

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

And leaders of Judah have said in their heart, 'Strength to me [are] the inhabitants of Jerusalem, In Jehovah of Hosts 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 make the leaders of Judah As a hearth of fire among trees, And as a torch of fire in a sheaf, And they have consumed — on the right and on the left — all the peoples round about, And Jerusalem hath inhabited again her place in Jerusalem.

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

And saved hath Jehovah the tents of Judah first, So that become not great against Judah Doth the beauty of the house of David, And the beauty of the inhabitant of Jerusalem.

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 cover over doth Jehovah the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And the stumbling among them hath been in that day as David, And the house of David as God — As a messenger of Jehovah — before them.

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

And it hath come to pass, in that day, I seek to destroy all the nations Who are coming in 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 have poured on the house of David, And on the inhabitant of Jerusalem, A spirit of grace and supplications, And they have looked unto Me whom they pierced, And they have mourned over it, Like a mourning over the only one, And they have been in bitterness for it, Like a bitterness over the first-born.

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

In that day, great is the mourning of Jerusalem, As the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon,

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

And mourned hath the land — every family apart, The family of the house of David apart, And their women apart; The family of the house of Nathan apart, And their women apart;

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 the house of Levi apart, And their women apart; The family of Shimei apart, And their women apart,

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

All the families that are left, Every family apart, and their women apart!
