撒迦利亚书 12

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)

耶路撒冷必蒙拯救

12 以下是耶和华关于以色列的启示。

铺展穹苍、奠立大地的根基、塑造人灵魂的耶和华说： ²“看啊，我要使耶路撒冷成为令周围万民昏醉的酒杯。耶路撒冷被围困时，犹大也必受困。 ³到那天，当地上的列国聚集起来攻击耶路撒冷的时候，我要使耶路撒冷成为一块沉重的石头。凡试图举起它的，必伤自己。 ⁴到那天，我要使所有的战马惊恐，使马上的骑士癫狂。我必看顾犹大家，使列邦的马匹瞎眼。这是耶和华说的。 ⁵那时，犹大的族长必心里说，‘耶路撒冷的居民从他们的上帝——万军之耶和华那里得到了力量。’

⁶“到那天，我必使犹大的族长像木柴中的火盆，像禾捆中的火把，吞噬左右四围的列邦，但耶路撒冷人必仍在原处——耶路撒冷安居。

⁷“耶和华必首先拯救犹大的帐篷，免得大卫家和耶路撒冷居民的荣耀超过犹大。 ⁸到那天，耶和华必保护耶路撒冷的居民，使他们当中最软弱的像大卫一样刚强，使大卫家像上帝一样，像耶和华的天使一样带领他们。 ⁹到那天，我必毁灭前来攻击耶路撒冷的列国。

¹⁰“我必将施恩和祷告的灵浇灌在大卫家和耶路撒冷的居民身上。他们必仰望我——他们所刺的那位，如丧独子一般为祂哀伤，如丧长子一般为祂痛哭。 ¹¹到那天，耶路撒冷必一片哀声，犹如米吉多平原的哈达临门的哀声。 ¹²境内家家户户都必哀哭。大卫家的男子在一处，女子在一处；拿单家的男子在一处，女子在一处； ¹³利未家的男子在一处，女子在一处；示每家的男子在一处，女子在一处。 ¹⁴其余各家也都哀哭，男女分开。

Zechariah 12

Contemporary English Version

Victory for Jerusalem

12 This is a message from the Lord about Israel:

I am the Lord! I stretched out the heavens; I put the earth on its foundations and gave breath to humans. ²I have decided that Jerusalem will become a bowl of wine that makes the neighboring nations drunk. And when Jerusalem is attacked, Judah will also be attacked.^[a] ³But I will turn Jerusalem into a heavy stone that crushes anyone who tries to lift it.

When all nations on earth surround Jerusalem, ⁴I will blind every horse and make them panic, and every rider will be confused. But at the same time, I will watch over Judah. ⁵Then every clan in Judah will realize that I, the Lord All-Powerful, am their God, and that I am the source of their strength.

⁶At that time I will let the clans of Judah be like a ball of fire in a wood pile or a fiery torch in a hay stack. Then Judah will send the surrounding nations up in smoke. And once again the city of Jerusalem will be filled with people.

⁷But I will first give victory to Judah, so the kingdom of David and the city of Jerusalem in all of their glory won't be thought of more highly than Judah itself. ⁸I, the Lord God, will protect Jerusalem. Even the weakest person there will be as strong as David, and David's kingdom will rule as though my very own angel were its leader. ⁹I am determined to wipe out every nation that attacks Jerusalem.

Mourning for the One Pierced with a Spear

¹⁰^(A) I, the Lord, will make the descendants of David and the people of Jerusalem feel deep sorrow and pray when they see the one they pierced with a spear. They will mourn and weep for him, as parents weep over the death of their only child or their first-born. ¹¹On that day the people of Jerusalem will mourn as much as everyone did for Hadad Rimmon^[b] on the flatlands near Megiddo. ¹²Everyone of each family in the land will mourn, and the men will mourn separately from the women. This includes those from the family of David, and the families of Nathan, ¹³Levi, Shimei,^[c] ¹⁴and all other families as well.
