¹The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD.

¹Ennustus: Issanda sõna on Hadrakimaal ja tema hingamispaik on Damaskus, sest Issand hoiab oma silma inimeste peal nagu kõigil Iisraeli suguharudel,

²And Hamath also shall border thereby; Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.

²ka Hamatil, mis on Damaskuse piiril, ka Tüürosel ja Siidonil, kuigi need on väga targad.

³And Tyrus did build herself a strong hold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

³Tüüros on ehitanud enese kindluseks, ta on kuhjanud kokku hõbedat nagu põrmu ja kulda nagu tänavapori.

⁴Behold, the LORD will cast her out, and he will smite her power in the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.

⁴Vaata, Issand teeb ta vaeseks, paiskab ta müüri merre ja laseb tal tules hävida.

⁵Ashkelon shall see it, and fear; Gaza also shall see it, and be very sorrowful, and Ekron; for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.

⁵Askelon näeb seda ja kardab, ka Assa, ja väriseb väga; samuti Ekron, sest ta lootus muutub häbiks. Assast hukkub kuningas ja Askelonis ei elata enam.

⁶And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

⁶Asdodis hakkavad elama võõrad ja ma kaotan vilistite kõrkuse.

⁷And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth, even he, shall be for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

⁷Ma kõrvaldan ta suust vere ja ta hammaste vahelt jäledused: temastki jääb jääk meie Jumalale, temastki saab nagu üks Juuda pealik, ja Ekron on võrreldav jebuuslastega.

⁸And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes.

⁸Ma löön leeri üles oma koja kaitseks, minejate ja tulijate pärast, et rõhuja ei tuleks enam neile kallale, sest nüüd ma olen seda näinud oma silmaga.

⁹Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

⁹Ole väga rõõmus, Siioni tütar, hõiska, Jeruusalemma tütar! Vaata, sulle tuleb sinu kuningas, õiglane ja aitaja. Tema on alandlik ja sõidab eesli seljas, emaeesli sälu seljas.

¹⁰And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.

¹⁰Mina hävitan Efraimist sõjavankrid ja sõjaratsud Jeruusalemmast, sõjaammudki hävitatakse. Ja tema kuulutab rahvaile rahu ning valitseb merest mereni, Frati jõest ilmamaa ääreni.

¹¹As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

¹¹Ja sulle: Sinu lepinguvere pärast ma vabastan su vangid august, kus pole vett.

¹²Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

¹²Pöörduge tagasi turvapaika, lootusrikkad vangid, sest ma kuulutan täna: Ma tahan sulle kahekordselt tasuda!

¹³When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.

¹³Sest ma vinnastan enesele Juuda nagu ammu, panen Efraimi nooleks peale. Ja ma õhutan su pojad, Siion, sinu poegade kallale, Jaavan. Ma teen sind kangelase mõõga sarnaseks.

¹⁴And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the LORD God shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.

¹⁴Siis ilmub Issand nende kohale ja tema nool läheb välja nagu välk; ja Issand Jumal puhub sarve ning tuleb lõunatormides.

¹⁵The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.

¹⁵Vägede Issand kaitseb neid, tema lingukivid purevad liha, joovad verd nagu veini ja täituvad otsekui piserdusnõu, otsekui altari nurgad.

¹⁶And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.

¹⁶Ja Issand, nende Jumal, aitab neid sel päeval nagu oma rahva karja; sest otsekui laubaehte kivid peavad nad sätendama tema maal.

¹⁷For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.

¹⁷Tõesti, kui hea ja ilus see on! Vili kosutab noori mehi ja viinamarjamahl neidusid.
