¹Ennustus. Issanda sõna Iisraeli kohta. Issand, kes laotab taeva ja rajab maale aluse ja kes valmistab inimese vaimu tema sees, ütleb:

¹An oracle. The word of Yahweh concerning Israel. Yahweh, who stretches out the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him says:

²'Vaata, ma teen Jeruusalemma uimastuskarikaks kõigile ümberkaudseile rahvaile, ja see pannakse ka Juuda peale Jeruusalemma ahistamises.

²“Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the surrounding peoples, and on Judah also will it be in the siege against Jerusalem.

³Ja sel päeval teen ma Jeruusalemma tõstekiviks kõigile rahvaile: kõik, kes seda tõstavad, rebestavad endid; ja kõik maa paganad kogunevad tema vastu.

³It will happen in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all the peoples. All who burden themselves with it will be severely wounded, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered together against it.

⁴Sel päeval, ütleb Issand, teen ma kõik hobused peruks ja nende ratsanikud hullumeelseks. Aga Juuda kohal teen ma oma silmad lahti, kui ma löön sõgedusega kõiki rahvaste hobuseid.

⁴In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will strike every horse with terror, and his rider with madness; and I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.

⁵Siis mõtlevad Juuda pealikud oma südames: Jeruusalemma elanikud on mulle jaksuks vägede Issandas, oma Jumalas.

⁵The chieftains of Judah will say in their heart, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength in Yahweh of Armies their God.’

⁶Sel päeval teen ma Juuda pealikud tulise sütepanni sarnaseks keset puid või põleva tõrviku sarnaseks vihkude hulgas, ja need põletavad paremalt ja vasakult kõik ümberkaudsed rahvad. Aga Jeruusalemm jääb edasi oma paika - Jeruusalemma.

⁶In that day I will make the chieftains of Judah like a pan of fire among wood, and like a flaming torch among sheaves; and they will devour all the surrounding peoples, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem will yet again dwell in their own place, even in Jerusalem.

⁷Ja Issand päästab esmalt Juuda telgid, et Taaveti soo hiilgus ja Jeruusalemma elanike hiilgus ei saaks suurustada Juuda ees.

⁷Yahweh also will save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem not be magnified above Judah.

⁸Sel päeval kaitseb Issand Jeruusalemma elanikke; sel päeval on komistaja nende seas nagu Taavet, ja Taaveti sugu on nagu Jumal, nagu Issanda ingel nende ees.

⁸In that day Yahweh will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem. He who is feeble among them at that day will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of Yahweh before them.

⁹Aga sel päeval ma hävitan kõik paganad, kes tulevad Jeruusalemma kallale.

⁹It will happen in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

¹⁰Ja ma valan Taaveti soo peale ja Jeruusalemma elanike peale kaastunde ja anumise vaimu; siis nad vaatavad sellele, kelle nad läbi pistsid, ja kaeblevad tema pärast, nagu kaeveldakse ainsa lapse pärast, ja nutavad tema pärast kibedasti, nagu nutetakse kibedasti esmasündinu pärast.

¹⁰I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they will look to me After “me,” the Hebrew has the two letters “Aleph Tav” (the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet), not as a word, but as a grammatical marker. whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him, as one grieves for his firstborn.

¹¹Sel päeval on Jeruusalemmas niisama suur kaebamine, nagu oli Hadad-Rimmoni pärast Megiddo orus.

¹¹In that day there will be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

¹²Ja maa teeb kaebust, iga suguvõsa eraldi: Taaveti koja suguvõsa eraldi ja nende naised eraldi, Naatani koja suguvõsa eraldi ja nende naised eraldi,

¹²The land will 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;

¹³Leevi koja suguvõsa eraldi ja nende naised eraldi, simeilaste suguvõsa eraldi ja nende naised eraldi,

¹³the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;

¹⁴kõik muud suguvõsad - iga suguvõsa eraldi ja nende naised eraldi.

¹⁴all the families who remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
