¹Bremä slova Hospodinovho proti zemi Chadrach-u i proti Damašku, jeho odpočinku (Pre to, že oko človeka má zrieť k Hospodinovi aj oči všetkých pokolení Izraelových);

¹The burden of a word of Jehovah against the land of Hadrach, and Demmeseh — his place of rest: (When to Jehovah [is] the eye of man, And of all the tribes of Israel.)

²ako aj proti Chamatu, ktorý hraničí s ním, proti Týru a Sidonu, lebo je veľmi múdry.

²And also Hamath doth border thereon, Tyre and Zidon, for — very wise!

³A Týrus si vystavil pevnosť, nahromadil striebra jako prachu a rýdzeho zlata jako blata ulíc.

³And Tyre doth build a bulwark to herself, And doth heap silver as dust, And gold as mire of out-places.

⁴Hľa, Pán ho vyženie a porazí jeho silu na mori, a on sám bude strávený ohňom.

⁴Lo, the Lord doth dispossess her, And He hath smitten in the sea her force, And she with fire is consumed.

⁵Uvidí to Aškalon a bude sa báť, i Gaza, a bude sa svíjať bolesťou, veľmi, aj Ekron, pretože zahanbí jeho nádej, a zahynie kráľ z Gazy, a Aškalon nebude obývaný.

⁵See doth Ashkelon and fear, Also Gaza, and she is exceedingly pained, Also Ekron — for her expectation dried up, And perished hath a king from Gaza, And Ashkelon doth not remain,

⁶V Ašdóde bude bývať bastard, a tak vytnem pýchu Filištínov.

⁶And dwelt hath a foreigner in Ashdod, And I have cut off the excellency of the Philistines.

⁷A odstránim jeho krv z jeho úst a jeho hnusoby zpomedzi jeho zubov, a tak pozostane aj on nášmu Bohu a bude jako vojvoda v Judsku a Ekron ako Jebuzej.

⁷And turned aside his blood from his mouth, His abominations from between his teeth, And he hath remained, even he, to our God, And he hath been as a leader in Judah, And Ekron as a Jebusite.

⁸A položím sa vôkol svojho domu táborom pre vojsko, aby nikto neprešiel cezeň ani sa nevrátil. A neprejde viacej po nich pohonič, lebo teraz som videl svojimi očima.

⁸And I have pitched for My house a camp, Because of the passer through, and of the returner, And pass not through against them again doth an exactor, For, now, I have seen with My eyes.

⁹Plesaj veľmi, dcéro Siona, pokrikuj radostne, dcéro Jeruzalema! Hľa, tvoj kráľ prijde k tebe, spravedlivý je a plný spasenia chudobný a jazdiaci na oslovi, na osľati, žrebcovi oslíc.

⁹Rejoice exceedingly, O daughter of Zion, Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem, Lo, thy King doth come to thee, Righteous — and saved is He, Afflicted — and riding on an ass, And on a colt — a son of she-asses.

¹⁰A vyplienim voz z Efraima a koňa z Jeruzalema, a bude vyplienené aj vojenné lučište, a bude hovoriť pokoj národom. Jeho panstvo bude od mora až k moru a od Rieky až po konce zeme.

¹⁰And I have cut off the chariot from Ephraim, And the horse from Jerusalem, Yea, cut off hath been the bow of battle, And he hath spoken peace to nations, And his rule [is] from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of earth.

¹¹Aj tebe, pre krv tvojej smluvy, prepustím tvojich väzňov z jamy, v ktorej niet vody.

¹¹Also thou — by the blood of thy covenant, I have sent thy prisoners out of the pit, There is no water in it.

¹²Navráťte sa do pevnosti, väzni nádeje! Aj dnes oznamujem: Dvojnásobne ti nahradím.

¹²Turn back to a fenced place, Ye prisoners of the hope, Even to-day a second announcer I restore to thee.

¹³Lebo si napnem Júdu, naplním lučište Efraimom a zobudím tvojich synov, Sione, proti tvojim synom, Javane, a učiním ťa ako meč hrdinu.

¹³For I have trodden for Me Judah, A bow I have filled [with] Ephraim, And I have stirred up thy sons, O Zion, Against thy sons, O Javan, And I have set thee as the sword of a hero.

¹⁴A Hospodin sa ukáže nad nimi, a jeho strela vyjde jako blesk, a Pán Hospodin bude trúbiť na trúbu a pojde jako víchrice juhu.

¹⁴And Jehovah doth appear for them, And gone forth as lightning hath His arrow, And the Lord Jehovah with a trumpet bloweth, And He hath gone with whirlwinds of the south.

¹⁵Hospodin Zástupov bude štítiť nad nimi, a strávia a zašliapu kamene praku, budú piť a lomoziť ako od vína a budú plní jako obetná čaša, jako uhly oltára.

¹⁵Jehovah of Hosts doth cover them over, And they consumed, and subdued sling-stones, Yea, they have drunk, They have made a noise as wine, And they have been full as a bowl, As corners of an altar.

¹⁶A tak ich zachráni Hospodin, ich Bôh, toho dňa ako stádo svojho ľudu, pretože budú jako kamene koruny, ktoré sa budú ďaleko skvieť na jeho zemi.

¹⁶And saved them hath Jehovah their God In that day, as a flock of His people, For stones of a crown are displaying themselves over His ground.

¹⁷Lebo jaké bude jeho dobro a jaká jeho krása! Obilie mládencom a vínna šťava bude dodávať rozkvetu pannám.

¹⁷For what His goodness! and what His beauty! Corn the young men, And new wine the virgins — make fruitful!
