Zaccharias Propheta 14
1 Ecce venient dies Domini, et dividentur spolia tua in medio tui.
Behold! A day for Yahweh is coming when your plunder will be divided in your midst.
2 Et congregabo omnes Gentes ad Ierusalem in praelium, et capietur civitas, et vastabuntur domus, et mulieres violabuntur: et egredietur media pars civitatis in captivitatem, et reliquum populi non auferetur ex urbe.
For I will gather every nation against Jerusalem for battle and the city will be captured. The houses will be plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go out into captivity, but the remainder of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 Et egredietur Dominus, et praeliabitur contra Gentes illas, sicut praeliatus est in die certaminis.
But Yahweh will go out and wage war against those nations as when he wages war on the day of battle.
4 Et stabunt pedes eius in die illa super Montem olivarum, qui est contra Ierusalem ad Orientem: et scindetur Mons olivarum ex media parte sui ad Orientem, et ad Occidentem praerupto grandi valde, et separabitur medium montis ad Aquilonem, et medium eius ad Meridiem.
On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is beside Jerusalem to the east. The Mount of Olives will be split in half between the east and the west by a very great valley and half of the mountain will go back toward the north and half toward the south.
5 Et fugietis ad vallem montium eorum, quoniam coniungetur vallis montium usque ad proximum: et fugietis sicut fugistis a facie terraemotus in diebus Oziae regis Iuda: et veniet Dominus Deus meus, omnesque sancti cum eo.
Then you will flee down the valley between Yahweh's mountains, for the valley between those mountains will reach to Azel. You will flee just as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah. Then Yahweh my God will come and all the holy ones will be with him.
6 Et erit in die illa: Non erit lux, sed frigus et gelu.
On that day there will be no light, but no cold or frost either.
7 Et erit dies una, quae nota est Domino, non dies neque nox: et in tempore vesperi erit lux.
On that day, a day known only to Yahweh, there will no longer be day or night, for the evening will be a time of light.
8 Et erit in die illa: Exibunt aquae vivae de Ierusalem: medium earum ad mare Orientale, et medium earum ad mare novissimum: in aestate et in hieme erunt.
On that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem. Half of them will flow to the eastern sea and half to the western sea, in summer and in winter.
9 Et erit Dominus Rex super omnem terram: in die illa erit Dominus unus, et erit nomen eius unum.
Yahweh will be king over all the earth. On that day there will be Yahweh, the one God, and his name alone.
10 Et revertetur omnis terra usque ad desertum, de colle Remmon ad Austrum Ierusalem: et exaltabitur, et habitabitur in loco suo a porta Beniamin usque ad locum portae prioris, et usque ad portam angulorum: et a turre Hananeel usque ad torcularia regis.
All the land will be like the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem will continue to be raised up and remain in its own place, from the Benjamin Gate to the place where the first gate was, to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king's winepresses.
11 Et habitabunt in ea, et anathema non erit amplius: sed sedebit Ierusalem secura.
The people will live in Jerusalem and there will be no more complete destruction from God against them. Jerusalem will live in safety.
12 Et haec erit plaga, qua percutiet Dominus omnes Gentes, quae pugnaverunt adversus Ierusalem: Tabescet caro uniuscuiusque stantis super pedes suos, et oculi eius contabescent in foraminibus suis, et lingua eorum contabescet in ore suo.
This will be the plague with which Yahweh will attack all the peoples that waged war against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot away even as they are standing on their feet. Their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths.
13 In die illa erit tumultus Domini magnus in eis: et apprehendet vir manum proximi sui, et conseretur manus eius super manum proximi sui.
On that day that great fear from Yahweh will come among them. Each one will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will be raised up against the hand of another.
14 Sed et Iuda pugnabit adversus Ierusalem: et congregabuntur divitiae omnium Gentium in circuitu, aurum, et argentum, et vestes multae satis.
Judah will also fight against Jerusalem. They will gather the wealth of all the surrounding nations—gold, silver, and fine clothes in great abundance.
15 Et sic erit ruina equi, et muli, et cameli, et asini, et omnium iumentorum, quae fuerint in castris illis, sicut ruina haec.
A plague will also be on the horses and the mules, the camels and the donkeys, and on every animal in those camps will also suffer that same plague.
16 Et omnes, qui reliqui fuerint de universis Gentibus, quae venerunt contra Ierusalem, ascendent ab anno in annum, ut adorent Regem, Dominum exercituum, et celebrent festivitatem tabernaculorum.
Then it will happen that all who remain in those nations that came against Jerusalem will instead go up from year to year to worship the king, Yahweh of hosts, and to keep the Festival of Shelters.
17 Et erit: Qui non ascenderit de familiis terrae ad Ierusalem, ut adoret Regem, Dominum exercituum, non erit super eos imber.
It will happen that if anyone from all the nations of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the king, Yahweh of hosts, then Yahweh will not bring rain on them.
18 Quod et si familia Aegypti non ascenderit, et non venerit: nec super eos erit, sed erit ruina, qua percutiet Dominus omnes Gentes, quae non ascenderint ad celebrandam festivitatem tabernaculorum.
If the nation of Egypt does not go up, then they will not receive rain. A plague from Yahweh will attack the nations that do not go up to keep the Festival of Shelters.
19 Hoc erit peccatum Aegypti, et hoc peccatum omnium Gentium, quae non ascenderint ad celebrandam festivitatem tabernaculorum.
This will be the punishment for Egypt and the punishment for every nation that does not go up to keep the Festival of Shelters.
20 In die illa erit quod super frenum equi est, sanctum Domino: et erunt lebetes in domo Domini quasi phialae coram altari.
But on that day, the bells of the horses will say, “Set apart to Yahweh,” and the basins in Yahweh's house will be like the bowls before the altar.
21 Et erit omnis lebes in Ierusalem, et in Iuda sanctificatus Domino exercituum: et venient omnes immolantes, et sument ex eis, et coquent in eis: et non erit mercator ultra in domo Domini exercituum in die illo.
For every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be set apart to Yahweh of hosts and everyone who brings a sacrifice will eat from them and boil in them. On that day traders will no longer be in the house of Yahweh of hosts.
