Zechariah 12
1 A prophecy: This message came from the Lord concerning Israel, a declaration of the Lord who spread out the heavens, who laid the foundations of the earth, and who placed the breath of life within human beings.
Breme rijeèi Gospodnje za Izrailja. Govori Gospod, koji je razapeo nebesa i osnovao zemlju, i stvorio èovjeku duh koji je u njemu:
2 Look! I am going to make Jerusalem like a cup containing alcoholic drink that will make all the surrounding nations stagger like drunks when they come to attack Judah and Jerusalem.
Evo, ja æu uèiniti Jerusalim èašom za opijanje svijem narodima unaokolo, koji æe opsjesti Jerusalim ratujuæi na Judu.
3 On that day I will make Jerusalem like a heavy rock to all peoples. Anyone who tries to lift the rock will injure themselves badly. All the nations will join together to attack Jerusalem.
I u taj æu dan uèiniti Jerusalim teškim kamenom svijem narodima; koji ga god htjedbudu dignuti, satræe se, ako bi se i svi narodi zemaljski sabrali na nj.
4 On that day I will make every horse panic-stricken and every rider go mad, declares the Lord, but I will watch over the people of Judah while I blind all the horses of their enemies.
U taj æu dan, govori Gospod, uèiniti da svi konji budu plašljivi i svi konjanici bezumni; i otvoriæu oèi svoje na dom Judin, i oslijepiæu sve konje narodima.
5 Then the families of Judah will say to themselves, the people of Jerusalem are strong in their God, the Lord Almighty.
Te æe govoriti glavari Judini u srcu svom: jaki su mi stanovnici Jerusalimski Gospodom nad vojskama, Bogom svojim.
6 On that day I will make the families of Judah like burning coals in a wood, like a flaming torch in a field of straw. They will burn up to the right and to the left all the surrounding peoples, while the people of Jerusalem will live safely in their city.
U onaj æu dan uèiniti da glavari Judini budu kao ognjište u drvima i kao luè zapaljen u snopovima, te æe proždrijeti i nadesno i nalijevo sve narode unaokolo, a Jerusalim æe još ostati na svom mjestu, u Jerusalimu.
7 The Lord will give the victory to the soldiers of Judah first so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem shall not be greater than that of Judah.
I Gospod æe saèuvati šatore Judine najprije, da se ne diže nad Judom slava doma Davidova i slava stanovnika Jerusalimskih.
8 On that day the Lord will place a shield around the people of Jerusalem so that even the clumsiest of them will be as skilled a warrior as David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord who leads them.
U onaj æe dan Gospod zaklanjati stanovnike Jerusalimske, i najslabiji meðu njima biæe u taj dan kao David, i dom æe Davidov biti kao Bog, kao anðeo Gospodnji pred njima.
9 On that day I will start destroying all those nations that attack Jerusalem.
I u taj dan tražiæu da istrijebim sve narode koji doðu na Jerusalim;
10 I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They will look at me whom they pierced, and they will wail in grief over him, mourning as for an only child, weeping bitterly as for a firstborn.
I izliæu na dom Davidov i na stanovnike Jerusalimske duh milosti i molitava, i pogledaæe na mene kojega probodoše; i plakaæe za njim kao za jedincem, i tužiæe za njim kao za prvencem.
11 On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning in Hadad-Rimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
U ono æe vrijeme biti tužnjava velika u Jerusalimu kao tužnjava u Adadrimonu u polju Megidonskom.
12 The land will mourn, every family alone: the family house of David alone and their women by themselves, the families of Nathan,
I tužiæe zemlja, svaka porodica napose; porodica doma Davidova napose, i žene njihove napose; porodica doma Natanova napose, i žene njihove napose;
13 Levi, and Shimei—
Porodica doma Levijeva napose, i žene njihove napose; porodica Semejeva napose, i žene njihove napose;
14 and all the surviving families and their women, each group mourning alone by themselves.
Sve ostale porodice, svaka napose, i žene njihove napose.
