< Zechariah 9 >

1 An oracle. The word of the LORD is against the land of Hadrach, and will rest upon Damascus; for the eye of man and of all the tribes of Israel is toward the LORD;
Breme rijeèi Gospodnje zemlji Adrahu i Damasku, gdje æe poèinuti, jer je Gospodnje oko na ljudima i na svijem plemenima Izrailjevijem.
2 and Hamath, also, which borders on it; Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.
I Emat æe zahvatiti, i Tir i Sidon, ako i jesu veoma mudri,
3 Tyre built herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver like the dust, and fine gold like the mire of the streets.
I Tir sagradi sebi grad, i sabra srebra kao praha, i zlata kao kala po putu.
4 Look, the LORD will dispossess her, and he will strike her power in the sea; and she will be devoured with fire.
Gle, Gospod æe ga otjerati, i vræi æe u more silu njegovu, i on æe ognjem izgorjeti.
5 Ashkelon will see it, and fear; Gaza also, and will writhe in agony; as will Ekron, for her expectation will be disappointed; and the king will perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon will not be inhabited.
Askalon æe vidjeti i uplašiæe se, i Gaza æe se vrlo uzmuèiti, i Akaron, što ga osramoti nadanje njegovo, i poginuæe car u Gazi; i Askalon se neæe naseliti.
6 Foreigners will dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
I u Azotu æe sjedjeti tuðin, i ponos æu Filistejski zatrti.
7 I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth; and he also will be a remnant for our God; and he will be as a chieftain in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
I ukloniæu krv njihovu od usta njihovijeh, i gadove njihove iz zuba njihovijeh, i ko ostane biæe i on Boga našega, i biæe kao poglavar u Judi, a Akaron kao Jevusejac.
8 I will camp around my house against the army, that none pass through or return; and no oppressor will pass through them any more: for now I have seen with my eyes.
I postaviæu oko kod doma svojega suprot vojsci, suprot onima koji odlaze i dolaze, i nastojnik neæe više prolaziti kroz njih, jer sada pogledah svojim oèima.
9 Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion. Shout, daughter of Jerusalem. Look, your king comes to you. He is righteous, and having salvation; lowly, and riding on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
Raduj se mnogo, kæeri Sionska, podvikuj, kæeri Jerusalimska; evo, car tvoj ide k tebi, pravedan je i spasava, krotak i jaše na magarcu, i na magaretu, mladetu magarièinu.
10 I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem; and the battle bow will be cut off; and he will speak peace to the nations: and his dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
Jer æu istrijebiti iz Jefrema kola i iz Jerusalima konje; i istrijebiæe se luk ubojiti; i on æe kazivati mir narodima, i vlast æe mu biti od mora do mora i od rijeke do krajeva zemaljskih.
11 As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.
A ti, za krv zavjeta tvojega pustih sužnje tvoje iz jame, gdje nema vode.
12 Turn to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
Vratite se ka gradu, sužnji, koji se nadate, još ti i danas javljam da æu ti platiti dvojinom.
13 For indeed I bend Judah as a bow for me. I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, and will make you like the sword of a mighty man.
Jer zapeh sebi Judu kao luk, i napunih Jefrema, i podigoh sinove tvoje, Sione, na sinove tvoje, Javane, i uèinih te da si kao maè junaèki.
14 The LORD will be seen over them; and his arrow will go forth like lightning; and the LORD will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
I Gospod æe se pokazati nad njima, i strijela æe njegova izaæi kao munja, i Gospod æe Gospod zatrubiti u trubu i poæi æe s vihorima južnijem.
15 The LORD of hosts will defend them; and they will destroy and overcome with sling stones; and they will drink, and roar as through wine; and they will be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
Gospod nad vojskama zaklanjaæe ih, i oni æe jesti pogazivši kamenje iz praæe, i piæe podvikujuæi kao od vina, i biæe puni kao èaša, kao uglovi od oltara.
16 The LORD their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people; for they are like the jewels of a crown, lifted on high over his land.
I Gospod Bog njihov izbaviæe ih u taj dan kao stado svojega naroda, jer æe se kamenje u vijencu podignuti u zemlji njegovoj.
17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty. Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.
Jer koliko æe biti dobro njegovo i kolika ljepota njegova! od žita æe rasti momci a od slatkoga vina djevojke.
