撒迦利亚书 9
1 耶和华的默示应验在哈得拉地大马士革 —世人和以色列各支派的眼目都仰望耶和华—
“This is a declaration of Yahweh's word concerning the land of Hadrak and Damascus, its resting place; for the eyes of all humanity and all the tribes of Israel are toward Yahweh.
2 和靠近的哈马，并泰尔、西顿； 因为这二城的人大有智慧。
This declaration also concerns Hamath, which borders on Damascus, and it concerns Tyre and Sidon, for they are very wise.
3 泰尔为自己修筑保障， 积蓄银子如尘沙， 堆起精金如街上的泥土。
Tyre has built herself a stronghold and heaped up silver like dust and refined gold like mud in the streets.
4 主必赶出她， 打败她海上的权利； 她必被火烧灭。
Look! The Lord will dispossess her and destroy her strength on the sea, so she will be devoured by fire.
5 亚实基伦看见必惧怕； 迦萨看见甚痛苦； 以革伦因失了盼望蒙羞。 迦萨必不再有君王； 亚实基伦也不再有居民。
Ashkelon will see and be afraid! Gaza also will tremble greatly! Ekron, her hopes will be disappointed! The king will perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall no longer be inhabited!
6 私生子必住在亚实突； 我必除灭非利士人的骄傲。
Strangers will make their homes in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 我必除去他口中带血之肉 和牙齿内可憎之物。 他必作为余剩的人归与我们的 神， 必在犹大像族长； 以革伦人必如耶布斯人。
For I will remove their blood from their mouths and their abominations from between their teeth. Then they will become a remnant for our God like a clan in Judah, and Ekron will become like the Jebusites.
8 我必在我家的四围安营， 使敌军不得任意往来， 暴虐的人也不再经过， 因为我亲眼看顾我的家。
I will camp around my land against enemy armies, so no one can pass through or return, for no oppressor will overrun them, for now I see with my own eyes!
9 锡安的民哪，应当大大喜乐； 耶路撒冷的民哪，应当欢呼。 看哪，你的王来到你这里！ 他是公义的，并且施行拯救， 谦谦和和地骑着驴， 就是骑着驴的驹子。
Shout with great joy, daughter of Zion! Shout with happiness, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold! Your king is coming to you with righteousness and is rescuing you. He is humble and is riding on a donkey, on the colt of a donkey.
10 我必除灭以法莲的战车 和耶路撒冷的战马； 争战的弓也必除灭。 他必向列国讲和平； 他的权柄必从这海管到那海， 从大河管到地极。
Then I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim and the horse from Jerusalem, and the bow will be cut off from battle; for he will speak peace to the nations, and his dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth!
11 锡安哪，我因与你立约的血， 将你中间被掳而囚的人从无水的坑中释放出来。
As for you, because of the blood of my covenant with you, I will set your prisoners free from the pit where there is no water.
12 你们被囚而有指望的人都要转回保障。 我今日说明，我必加倍赐福给你们。
Return to the stronghold, prisoners of hope! Even today I am declaring that I will return double to you,
13 我拿犹大作上弦的弓； 我拿以法莲为张弓的箭。 锡安哪，我要激发你的众子， 攻击希腊的众子，使你如勇士的刀。
for I have bent Judah as my bow. I have filled my quiver with Ephraim. I have roused your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, and have made you, Zion, like a warrior's sword!”
14 耶和华必显现在他们以上； 他的箭必射出像闪电。 主耶和华必吹角， 乘南方的旋风而行。
Yahweh will appear to them, and his arrows will shoot out like lightning! For my Lord Yahweh will blow the trumpet and will advance with the storms from Teman.
15 万军之耶和华必保护他们； 他们必吞灭仇敌，践踏弹石。 他们必喝血呐喊，犹如饮酒； 他们必像盛满血的碗， 又像坛的四角满了血。
Yahweh of hosts will defend them, and they will devour them and defeat the stones of the slings. Then they will drink and shout like men drunk on wine, and they will be filled with wine like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
16 当那日，耶和华—他们的 神 必看他的民如群羊，拯救他们； 因为他们必像冠冕上的宝石， 高举在他的地以上。
So Yahweh their God will rescue them on that day, as the flock of his people. They are the jewels of a crown that will shine on his land.
17 他的恩慈何等大！ 他的荣美何其盛！ 五谷健壮少男； 新酒培养处女。
How good and how beautiful they will be! The young men will flourish on grain and the virgins on sweet wine!”
