耶和华的日子

14 看啊,耶和华的日子快到了,那时你那里的财物必被抢掠、瓜分。 因为我必招聚万国去攻打耶路撒冷。那时,城必失守,房屋必被洗劫,妇女必被玷污。半城的人必被掳去,剩下的人必留在城中,不会被铲除。 那时,耶和华必出来与列国争战,像从前争战的日子一样。 到那天,祂的脚必踏在耶路撒冷东面的橄榄山上,这山必从东至西分成两半,一半向北移,一半向南移,中间形成极大的山谷。 你们要从我的这山谷逃跑,因为山谷必延伸到亚萨。你们必像犹大王乌西雅年间的人躲避大地震一样逃跑。我的上帝耶和华必带着所有的圣者降临。 到那天,将没有光、严寒和冰霜。 那将是奇特的日子,没有昼夜之分,晚上仍然有光,只有上帝知道那日何时来临。

到那天,必有活水从耶路撒冷涌出,一半流向死海,一半流向地中海,冬夏不变。 耶和华必做普世的王。到那天,必唯祂独尊,唯祂的名独尊。 10 从迦巴直到耶路撒冷南边的临门,整个地区都要变为平原。从便雅悯门到旧门,再到角门,从哈楠业楼到王的榨酒池——耶路撒冷必仍然矗立在原处。 11 城内必有人居住,不再遭毁灭的咒诅。耶路撒冷必安享太平。

12 耶和华必降瘟疫给攻打耶路撒冷的列邦,使他们活着的时候皮肉已经腐烂,眼睛在眼眶中腐烂,舌头在口中腐烂。 13 到那天,耶和华必使他们慌乱不堪,彼此揪住,互相殴打。 14 犹大也必在耶路撒冷争战,四围列国的财物——大量的金银和衣服必被收聚起来。 15 同样的瘟疫也必降在马匹、骡子、骆驼、驴和营中的其他牲畜身上。

16 前来攻打耶路撒冷的列国中的幸存者,必每年上来敬拜大君王——万军之耶和华,并且守住棚节。 17 地上万族中若有人不上耶路撒冷敬拜大君王——万军之耶和华,他们必没有雨水。 18 埃及人若不上来敬拜,也必没有雨水,耶和华必使他们和不上来守住棚节的列国一样遭受瘟疫。 19 这将是埃及和不上来守住棚节的列国所得的惩罚。 20 到那天,马铃上也必刻上“献给耶和华”的字样。耶和华殿内的锅必像祭坛前的碗一样圣洁。 21 耶路撒冷和犹大的锅都是万军之耶和华的圣物,来献祭的人都可以用这些锅煮祭肉。到那天,万军之耶和华的殿中必再也没有商人。

Yerusaalemi enunulibwa Mukama

14 (A)Olunaku lwa Mukama lujja, lwe muligabana bye mwanyaga.

(B)Ndikuŋŋaanyiza amawanga gonna mu Yerusaalemi mu lutalo okukirwanyisa; ekibuga kiritwalibwa, enju zinyagibwe n’abakazi bakwatibwe. Kimu kyakubiri eky’ekibuga kiritwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse; naye abalala abalisigalawo tebaliggibwa mu kibuga.

(C)Awo Mukama alivaayo n’alwanyisa amawanga gali nga bwe yalwana ku lunaku olw’olutalo. (D)Ku lunaku olwo ebigere bye biriyimirira ku lusozi olwa Zeyituuni olwolekedde obuvanjuba bwa Yerusaalemi, era olusozi lwa Zeyituuni lulyabuluzibwamu ebitundu bibiri okuva Ebuvanjuba okudda Ebugwanjuba era lujjemu oguwonvu oguwanvu ennyo. Ekitundu ekimu eky’olusozi kidde mu Bukiikakkono ekirala mu Bukiikaddyo. (E)Nammwe muliddukira mu kkubo ery’omu kiwonvu eky’olusozi lwange kubanga ekiwonvu kirisitulirwa waggulu era muddukanga nga bwe mwadduka musisi eyayita mu mirembe gya Uzziya, kabaka wa Yuda. Awo Mukama Katonda wange alijja n’abatukuvu be bonna.

(F)Ku lunaku olwo teriba kitangaala, newaakubadde obunnyogovu wadde obutiti. (G)Naye luliba lunaku lwa njawulo, awataliba misana wadde kiro: olunaku olumanyiddwa Mukama. Obudde bwe buliwungeera walibaawo ekitangaala.

(H)Ku lunaku olwo amazzi amalamu galikulukuta okuva mu Yerusaalemi; agamu gagende mu nnyanja ey’Ebuvanjuba n’amalala mu nnyanja ey’Ebugwanjuba; mu kyeya ne mu ttoggo.

Yuda Kabaka w’Ensi ow’Oku Ntikko

(I)Mukama alibeera kabaka ow’ensi zonna: ku lunaku olwo Mukama alibeera omu yekka n’erinnya lye liribeera erinnya lyokka.

10 (J)Ensi yonna okuva e Geba okutuuka e Limmoni ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo obwa Yerusaalemi; erifuuka nga Alaba naye Yerusaalemi kiriyimusibwa ne kisigala mu kifo kyakyo okuva ku mulongooti gwe Kananeri okutuuka ku masogolero ga kabaka. 11 (K)Abantu balikibeeramu, tekigenda kuddayo kuzikirizibwa. Yerusaalemi kiriba kinywevu.

12 (L)Ono ye kawumpuli Mukama gw’alikubisa amawanga gonna agaalwanyisa Yerusaalemi. Emibiri gyabwe girivunda nga bakyali balamu. Amaaso gabavundire mu biwanga, n’ennimi zibavundire mu kamwa. 13 (M)Ku lunaku olwo Mukama alireetera abantu ekyekango eky’amaanyi. Buli muntu alikwata omukono gwa munne nga balwanagana. 14 (N)Ne Yuda alirwanira mu Yerusaalemi era obugagga bw’ensi zonna eziriraanyeewo bukuŋŋaanyizibwe, zaabu n’effeeza n’ebyambalo bingi nnyo nga nabyo bikuŋŋaanyizibbwa. 15 (O)Era kawumpuli ng’oli aligwa ku mbalaasi, ne ku nnyumbu, ne ku ŋŋamira, n’endogoyi, ne ku nsolo zonna eziriba mu bisulo ebyo.

16 (P)Abo abalisigalawo ku mawanga agaalumba Yerusaalemi banaayambukanga buli mwaka okusinza Mukama kabaka ow’Eggye era n’okukwatanga embaga ey’ensiisira. 17 (Q)Omuntu yenna mu nsi bw’ataagendenga Yerusaalemi kusinza Mukama Kabaka ow’Eggye, taafunenga nkuba. 18 (R)Abamisiri bwe bataagendenga kwetabamu, tebaafunenga nkuba. Mukama anaabareeteranga kawumpuli, gwakubisa amawanga agatagenda kukwata mbaga ey’ensiisira. 19 Ekyo kye kinaabanga ekibonerezo kya Misiri n’amawanga gonna agataayambukenga kukwata mbaga ya nsiisira.

20 (S)Ku lunaku olwo ekigambo kino, “kitukuvu eri Mukama Katonda,” kinaawandikibwa ku bide by’embalaasi era n’entamu ezifuumbirwamu mu nnyumba ya Mukama zinaabeeranga ng’ebibya ebitukuvu mu maaso g’ekyoto. 21 (T)Weewaawo, buli nsuwa mu Yerusaalemi ne mu Yuda eneebanga ntukuvu mu maaso ga Mukama ow’Eggye; n’abo bonna abanajjanga okuwaayo ssaddaaka banaafumbiranga mu zimu ku ntamu ezo. Era ku lunaku olwo, waliba tewakyali Mukanani mu nnyumba ya Mukama ow’Eggye.

耶和華的日子

14 看啊,耶和華的日子快到了,那時你那裡的財物必被搶掠、瓜分。 因為我必招聚萬國去攻打耶路撒冷。那時,城必失守,房屋必被洗劫,婦女必被玷污。半城的人必被擄去,剩下的人必留在城中,不會被剷除。 那時,耶和華必出來與列國爭戰,像從前爭戰的日子一樣。 到那天,祂的腳必踏在耶路撒冷東面的橄欖山上,這山必從東至西分成兩半,一半向北移,一半向南移,中間形成極大的山谷。 你們要從我的這山谷逃跑,因為山谷必延伸到亞薩。你們必像猶大王烏西雅年間的人躲避大地震一樣逃跑。我的上帝耶和華必帶著所有的聖者降臨。 到那天,將沒有光、嚴寒和冰霜。 那將是奇特的日子,沒有晝夜之分,晚上仍然有光,只有上帝知道那日何時來臨。

到那天,必有活水從耶路撒冷湧出,一半流向死海,一半流向地中海,冬夏不變。 耶和華必做普世的王。到那天,必唯祂獨尊,唯祂的名獨尊。 10 從迦巴直到耶路撒冷南邊的臨門,整個地區都要變為平原。從便雅憫門到舊門,再到角門,從哈楠業樓到王的榨酒池——耶路撒冷必仍然矗立在原處。 11 城內必有人居住,不再遭毀滅的咒詛。耶路撒冷必安享太平。

12 耶和華必降瘟疫給攻打耶路撒冷的列邦,使他們活著的時候皮肉已經腐爛,眼睛在眼眶中腐爛,舌頭在口中腐爛。 13 到那天,耶和華必使他們慌亂不堪,彼此揪住,互相毆打。 14 猶大也必在耶路撒冷爭戰,四圍列國的財物——大量的金銀和衣服必被收聚起來。 15 同樣的瘟疫也必降在馬匹、騾子、駱駝、驢和營中的其他牲畜身上。

16 前來攻打耶路撒冷的列國中的倖存者,必每年上來敬拜大君王——萬軍之耶和華,並且守住棚節。 17 地上萬族中若有人不上耶路撒冷敬拜大君王——萬軍之耶和華,他們必沒有雨水。 18 埃及人若不上來敬拜,也必沒有雨水,耶和華必使他們和不上來守住棚節的列國一樣遭受瘟疫。 19 這將是埃及和不上來守住棚節的列國所得的懲罰。 20 到那天,馬鈴上也必刻上「獻給耶和華」的字樣。耶和華殿內的鍋必像祭壇前的碗一樣聖潔。 21 耶路撒冷和猶大的鍋都是萬軍之耶和華的聖物,來獻祭的人都可以用這些鍋煮祭肉。到那天,萬軍之耶和華的殿中必再也沒有商人。

The Lord’s Triumph and Reign

14 Look, a day belonging to the Lord is coming(A) when the plunder taken from you will be divided in your presence. I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle.(B) The city will be captured, the houses looted, and the women raped. Half the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be removed from the city.

Then the Lord will go out to fight against those nations as he fights on a day of battle.(C) On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,(D) which faces Jerusalem on the east. The Mount of Olives will be split in half from east to west, forming a huge valley, so that half the mountain will move to the north and half to the south. You will flee by my mountain valley,[a] for the valley of the mountains will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled[b] from the earthquake in the days of King Uzziah of Judah.(E) Then the Lord my God will come and all the holy ones(F) with him.[c](G)

On that day there will be no light; the sunlight and moonlight will diminish.[d][e](H) It will be a unique day known only to the Lord,(I) without day or night, but there will be light at evening.

On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem,(J) half of it towards the eastern sea[f] and the other half towards the western sea,[g] in summer and winter alike. On that day the Lord will become King over the whole earth(K) – the Lord alone, and his name alone.(L) 10 All the land from Geba(M) to Rimmon(N) south of Jerusalem will be changed into a plain. But Jerusalem will be raised up and will remain[h] on its site from the Benjamin Gate(O) to the place of the First Gate,[i] to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses.(P) 11 People will live there, and never again will there be a curse of complete destruction. So Jerusalem will dwell in security.

12 This will be the plague with which the Lord strikes all the people who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will rot while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths. 13 On that day a great panic from the Lord will be among them, so that each will seize the hand of another, and the hand of one will rise against the other. 14 Judah will also fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected: gold, silver, and clothing in great abundance.(Q) 15 The same plague as the previous one will strike[j] the horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the animals that are in those camps.

16 Then all the survivors from the nations that came against Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord of Armies, and to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.(R) 17 Should any of the families of the earth not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of Armies, rain will not fall on them. 18 And if the people[k] of Egypt will not go up and enter, then rain will not fall on them; this will be the plague the Lord inflicts on the nations who do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Shelters. 19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Shelters.

20 On that day, the words Holy to the Lord will be on the bells of the horses.(S) The pots in the house of the Lord will be like the sprinkling basins before the altar. 21 Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of Armies. All who sacrifice will come and use the pots to cook in. And on that day there will no longer be a Canaanite[l] in the house of the Lord of Armies.

The Lord Comes and Reigns

14 A day of the Lord(A) is coming, Jerusalem, when your possessions(B) will be plundered and divided up within your very walls.

I will gather all the nations(C) to Jerusalem to fight against it;(D) the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped.(E) Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city.(F) Then the Lord will go out and fight(G) against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle.(H) On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,(I) east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split(J) in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. You will flee by my mountain valley, for it will extend to Azel. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake[a](K) in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the Lord my God will come,(L) and all the holy ones with him.(M)

On that day there will be neither sunlight(N) nor cold, frosty darkness. It will be a unique(O) day—a day known only to the Lord—with no distinction between day and night.(P) When evening comes, there will be light.(Q)

On that day living water(R) will flow(S) out from Jerusalem, half of it east(T) to the Dead Sea and half of it west to the Mediterranean Sea, in summer and in winter.(U)

The Lord will be king(V) over the whole earth.(W) On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name.(X)

10 The whole land, from Geba(Y) to Rimmon,(Z) south of Jerusalem, will become like the Arabah. But Jerusalem will be raised up(AA) high from the Benjamin Gate(AB) to the site of the First Gate, to the Corner Gate,(AC) and from the Tower of Hananel(AD) to the royal winepresses, and will remain in its place.(AE) 11 It will be inhabited;(AF) never again will it be destroyed. Jerusalem will be secure.(AG)

12 This is the plague with which the Lord will strike(AH) all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.(AI) 13 On that day people will be stricken by the Lord with great panic.(AJ) They will seize each other by the hand and attack one another.(AK) 14 Judah(AL) too will fight at Jerusalem. The wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected(AM)—great quantities of gold and silver and clothing. 15 A similar plague(AN) will strike the horses and mules, the camels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.

16 Then the survivors(AO) from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship(AP) the King,(AQ) the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(AR) 17 If any of the peoples of the earth do not go up to Jerusalem to worship(AS) the King, the Lord Almighty, they will have no rain.(AT) 18 If the Egyptian people do not go up and take part, they will have no rain. The Lord[b] will bring on them the plague(AU) he inflicts on the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(AV) 19 This will be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Festival of Tabernacles.(AW)

20 On that day holy to the Lord(AX) will be inscribed on the bells of the horses, and the cooking pots(AY) in the Lord’s house will be like the sacred bowls(AZ) in front of the altar. 21 Every pot in Jerusalem and Judah will be holy(BA) to the Lord Almighty, and all who come to sacrifice will take some of the pots and cook in them. And on that day(BB) there will no longer be a Canaanite[c](BC) in the house(BD) of the Lord Almighty.(BE)
