1 The burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel. {Thus} saith Jehovah, who stretcheth out the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him:
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of bewilderment unto all the peoples round about, and also against Judah shall it be in the siege against Jerusalem.
3 And it shall come to pass in that day {that} I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone unto all peoples: all that burden themselves with it shall certainly be wounded, and all the nations of the earth shall be assembled together against it.
4 In that day, saith Jehovah, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness; but I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5 And the leaders of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength through Jehovah of hosts their God.
6 In that day will I make the leaders of Judah like a hearth of fire among wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall dwell again in her own place, in Jerusalem.
7 And Jehovah shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified over Judah.
8 In that day will Jehovah defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David as God, as the Angel of Jehovah before them.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, {that} I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10 And I will pour upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of supplications; and they shall look on me whom they pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for an only {son}, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for {his} firstborn.
11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart: the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;
13 the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;
14 all the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
1 以下是耶和华的默示, 这是耶和华论到以色列的话(是耶和华的宣告, 他铺张诸天, 奠定大地的根基, 造成人里面的灵):
2 "看哪! 我要使耶路撒冷成为令周围万族喝醉的杯; 耶路撒冷被围困的时候, 犹大也必受到攻击。
3 到那日, 我要使耶路撒冷对万族来说像一块沉重的石头, 举起它的必受重伤; 地上的列国必聚集起来攻击耶路撒冷。
4 到那日(这是耶和华的宣告), 我要击打所有的马匹, 使它们惊恐, 击打骑马的人, 使他们疯狂; 我必开眼看顾犹大家, 我要击打万族所有的马匹, 使它们瞎眼。
5 那时, 犹大的族长必心里说: ‘耶路撒冷的居民, 靠万军之耶和华他们的 神得着力量。’
6 "到那日, 我必使犹大的族长好像木柴中的火盆, 又好像禾捆中的火把; 他们必向左右吞灭周围的万族, 但耶路撒冷的人必仍在城中原处安居。
7 "耶和华必先拯救犹大的帐棚, 免得大卫家的荣耀和耶路撒冷居民的荣耀胜过犹大。
8 到那日, 耶和华必保护耶路撒冷的居民; 他们中间最软弱的, 到那日必好像大卫, 大卫家必好像 神, 好像行在他们前面的耶和华使者。
9 到那日, 我必歼灭所有前来攻打耶路撒冷的列国。
10 "我必把那恩慈与恳求的灵倾注在大卫家和耶路撒冷居民的身上。他们必仰望我, 就是他们所刺的; 他们要为他哀哭, 好像丧独生子; 他们必为他悲痛, 好像丧长子。
11 到那日, 耶路撒冷必有极大的哀哭, 像在米吉多平原的哈达临门的哀哭一样。
12 全地都要哀哭, 一家一家独在一处哀哭。大卫家独在一处, 他们的妇女也独在一处; 拿单家独在一处, 他们的妇女也独在一处;
13 利未家独在一处, 他们的妇女也独在一处; 示每家独在一处, 他们的妇女也独在一处;
14 其余的各家都是一家一家独在一处, 他们的妇女也独在一处。"
