¹But in the latter days, it will happen that the mountain of Yahweh’s temple will be established on the top of the mountains, and it will be exalted above the hills; and peoples will stream to it.

¹In zgodi se v poslednjih dneh, da bo utrjena gora hiše GOSPODOVE na čelu vseh gorá in povišana nad hribe; in ljudstva bodo vrela k njej.

²Many nations will go and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion will go forth the law, and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem;

²In mnogi poganski narodi pojdejo in poreko: Pridite in pojdimo na goro GOSPODOVO in k hiši Boga Jakobovega! In učil nas bo pota svoja, in hodili bomo po njegovih stezah. Kajti s Siona pride postava in beseda GOSPODOVA iz Jeruzalema.

³and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off. They will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war any more.

³In on bode sodnik med mnogimi ljudstvi in bo karal močne poganske narode v daljavi. In prekujejo svoje meče v orala in sulice v kosirje, ne vzdigne narod zoper narod meča in ne bodo se več učili vojske.

⁴But they will sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and no one will make them afraid: For the mouth of Yahweh of Armies has spoken.

⁴A sedeli bodo vsak pod svojo trto in pod svojo smokvo, in nihče jih ne bo strašil; kajti usta GOSPODA nad vojskami so govorila.

⁵Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods; but we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.

⁵Kajti vsa ljudstva hodijo, vsako v imenu svojega boga, mi pa hodimo v imenu GOSPODA, Boga svojega, vedno in vekomaj.

⁶“In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted;

⁶Tisti dan, govori GOSPOD, zberem, kar je šepavo, in spravim vkup, kar je zavrženo, in nje, s katerimi sem hudo ravnal;

⁷and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and Yahweh will reign over them on Mount Zion from then on, even forever.”

⁷in storim tisto, kar je šepalo, za ostanek, in tisto, kar je bilo daleč zavrženo, v mogočen narod; in GOSPOD jim bo kraljeval na gori Sionu odslej do vekomaj.

⁸You, tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, yes, the former dominion will come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.

⁸In ti, stolp črede, hrib hčere sionske, do tebe dospe in k tebi pride prejšnje gospostvo, kraljestvo hčere jeruzalemske.

⁹Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, that pains have taken hold of you as of a woman in travail?

⁹Sedaj pa zakaj toliko vpiješ? Ni li kralja v tebi? ali pa je poginil svetovalec tvoj, da so te prijele bolečine kakor porodnico?

¹⁰Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go forth out of the city, and will dwell in the field, and will come even to Babylon. There you will be rescued. There Yahweh will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.

¹⁰Trpi bolečine in trudi se kakor porodnica, o hči sionska! kajti sedaj pojdeš ven iz mesta in boš prebivala na polju in prideš prav do Babela. Ondi boš oteta, ondi te GOSPOD odkupi iz pesti sovražilcev tvojih.

¹¹Now many nations have assembled against you, that say, “Let her be defiled, and let our eye gloat over Zion.”

¹¹In sedaj so se zbrali zoper tebe mnogi narodi, ki pravijo: Bodi oskrunjena in oko naše naj gleda veselje svoje na Sionu!

¹²But they don’t know the thoughts of Yahweh, neither do they understand his counsel; for he has gathered them like the sheaves to the threshing floor.

¹²Ali oni ne poznajo misli GOSPODOVIH in ne umejo sklepa njegovega; kajti zbral jih je kakor snope na gumno.Vstani in mlati, hči sionska! kajti tvoj rog napravim železen in tvoje parklje bronaste, da razmaneš mnoga ljudstva ter da posvetiš njih dobiček GOSPODU in njih imetje Gospodarju vse zemlje. –

¹³Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion; for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs brass; and you will beat in pieces many peoples: and I will devote their gain to Yahweh, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.

¹³Vstani in mlati, hči sionska! kajti tvoj rog napravim železen in tvoje parklje bronaste, da razmaneš mnoga ljudstva ter da posvetiš njih dobiček GOSPODU in njih imetje Gospodarju vse zemlje. –
