撒迦利亚

第 12 章

1. 耶和华论以色列的默示。铺张诸天，建立地基，造人里面之灵的耶和华说。
This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares:
2. 我必使耶路撒冷被围困的时候，向四围列国的民成为令人昏醉的杯，这默示也论到犹大（或作犹大也是如此）。
"I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem.
3. 那日，我必使耶路撒冷向聚集攻击他的万民，当作一块重石头。凡举起的必受重伤。
On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.
4. 耶和华说，到那日，我必使一切马匹惊惶，使骑马的颠狂。我必看顾犹大家，使列国的一切马匹瞎眼。
On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness," declares the LORD. "I will keep a watchful eye over the house of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations.
5. 犹大的族长，必心里说，耶路撒冷的居民，倚靠万军之耶和华他们的神，就作我们的能力。
Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.'
6. 那日，我必使犹大的族长，如火盆在木柴中，又如火把在禾捆里。他们必左右烧灭四围列国的民。耶路撒冷人必仍住本处，就是耶路撒冷。
"On that day I will make the leaders of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will consume right and left all the surrounding peoples, but Jerusalem will remain intact in her place.
7. 耶和华必先拯救犹大的帐棚，免得大卫家的荣耀，和耶路撒冷居民的荣耀，胜过犹大。
"The LORD will save the dwellings of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and of Jerusalem's inhabitants may not be greater than that of Judah.
8. 那日，耶和华必保护耶路撒冷的居民。他们中间软弱的，必如大卫。大卫的家，必如神，如行在他们前面之耶和华的使者。
On that day the LORD will shield those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the Angel of the LORD going before them.
9. 那日，我必定意灭绝来攻击耶路撒冷各国的民。
On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.
10. 我必将那施恩叫人恳求的灵，浇灌大卫家，和耶路撒冷的居民。他们必仰望我，或作他本节同就是他们所扎的。必为我悲哀，如丧独生子，又为我愁苦，如丧长子。
"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
11. 那日，耶路撒冷必有大大的悲哀，如米吉多平原之哈达临门的悲哀。
On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be great, like the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12. 境内，一家一家地都必悲哀。大卫家，男的独在一处，女的独在一处。拿单家，男的独在一处，女的独在一处。
The land will mourn, each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,
13. 利未家，男的独在一处，女的独在一处。示每家，男的独在一处，女的独在一处。
the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives,
14. 其余的各家，男的独在一处，女的独在一处。
and all the rest of the clans and their wives.
