¹The burden of the word of Jehovah upon the land of Hadrach, and Damascus [shall be] its resting-place (for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward Jehovah);

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

²and Hamath, also, which bordereth thereon; Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.

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

³And Tyre did build herself a stronghold, 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 dispossess her, 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, and shall be sore pained; and Ekron, for her expectation shall be put to shame; 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; and he also shall be a remnant for our God; and he shall be as a chieftain 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 my house against the army, that none pass through or return; 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, even 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 nations: and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River 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, because of the blood of thy covenant I have set free thy prisoners from the pit wherein is no water.

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

¹²Turn you to the stronghold, 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!

¹³For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and will make 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 Jehovah shall be seen over them; and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, and will 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.

¹⁵Jehovah of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, like 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 Jehovah their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people; for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted on high over 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! grain shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.

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