1 But in the last days it will come about that the mountain of the Lord's house will be placed on the top of the mountains, and be lifted up over the hills; and peoples will be flowing to it.
2 And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will give us knowledge of his ways and we will be guided by his word: for from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
3 And he will be judge between great peoples, and strong nations far away will be ruled by his decisions; their swords will be hammered into plough-blades and their spears into vine-knives: nations will no longer be lifting up their swords against one another, and knowledge of war will have gone for ever.
4 But every man will be seated under his vine and under his fig-tree, and no one will be a cause of fear to them: for the mouth of the Lord of armies has said it.
5 For all the peoples will be walking, every one in the name of his god, and we will be walking in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
6 In that day, says the Lord, I will get together her who goes with uncertain steps, I will get together her who has been sent away, and her on whom I have sent evil;
7 And I will make her whose steps were uncertain a small band, and her who was feeble a strong nation: and the Lord will be their King in Mount Zion from now and for ever.
8 And you, O tower of the flock, Ophel of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, even the earlier authority, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Now why are you crying so loudly? is there no king in you? has destruction come on your wise helper? so that pains have taken you like the pains of a woman in childbirth:
10 Be in pain, make sounds of grief, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in childbirth: for now you will go out of the town, living in the open country, and will come even to Babylon; there you will have salvation; there the Lord will make you free from the hands of your haters.
11 And now a number of nations have come together against you, and they say, Let her be made unclean and let our eyes see the fate of Zion.
12 But they have no knowledge of the thoughts of the Lord, their minds are not able to see his purpose: for he has got them together like stems of grain to the crushing-floor.
13 Up! and let the grain be crushed, O daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron and your feet brass, and a number of peoples will be broken by you, and you will give up their increase to the Lord and their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
14 \5:1\Now you will give yourselves deep wounds for grief; they will put up a wall round us: they will give the judge of Israel a blow on the face with a rod.
1 到末后的日子, 耶和华殿的山, 必矗立在万山之上, 高举过于万岭; 万民都要流归这山。
2 必有多国的人前来说: "来吧! 我们上耶和华的山, 登雅各 神的殿; 他必把他的道路指示我们, 我们也要遵行他的道; 因为教训必出于锡安。耶和华的话要来自耶路撒冷。
3 "他要在多族中施行审判, 为远方的强国断定是非。他们必把刀剑打成犁头, 把矛枪打成镰刀; 这国不举刀攻击那国, 他们也不再学习战事。
4 各人都要坐在自己的葡萄树, 和无花果树下, 无人惊吓他们, 因为万军之耶和华亲口说过了。
5 虽然, 万民各奉自己神的名行事, 我们却要永远奉耶和华我们 神的名而行。"
6 耶和华说: "到那日, 我必召聚瘸腿的, 集合被赶散的, 和我所苦待的。
7 我必使瘸腿的作余民; 使软弱疲乏的成为强国; 耶和华必在锡安山作王统治他们, 从现在直到永远。
8 你这羊群的守望楼啊! 锡安女子的俄斐勒啊! 从前的权柄, 必归给你, 就是耶路撒冷女子的国权, 要归还给你。
9 现在你为什么大声呼喊?难道你们中间没有君王吗?或是你的谋士灭亡了, 以致疼痛抓紧你, 好像临产的妇人呢?
10 锡安的女子啊! 你要疼痛劬劳, 好像临产的妇人; 因为现在你要从城里出来, 住在田野, 一定要到巴比伦去; 在那里你要蒙拯救, 在那里耶和华必救赎你, 脱离仇敌的掌握。
11 现在多国的民集合起来, 攻击你, 说: ‘愿锡安被蹂躏, 愿我们亲眼看见锡安遭报应。’"
12 但是, 他们却不知道耶和华的意念, 也不明白他的谋略; 他收集他们, 好像把禾捆收集到禾场一样。
13 锡安的女子啊! 起来踹谷吧! 因为我必使你的角成为铁, 使你的蹄成为铜; 你必粉碎许多民族, 把他们所得的, 作为当灭之物献与耶和华, 把他们的财宝献给全地的主。
