Prophetia Zachariae, 12
1. Oraculum. Verbum Domini super Israel et super Iudam. Oraculum Domini, qui extendit caelum et fundat terram et fingit spiritum hominis in eo:
1. An Oracle The word of the LORD concerning Israel: Thus says the LORD, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him:
2. “Ecce ego pono Ierusalem pateram crapulae omnibus populis in circuitu. Hoc erit in obsidione contra Ierusalem.
2. "Lo, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of reeling to all the peoples round about; it will be against Judah also in the siege against Jerusalem.
3. Et erit: in die illa ponam Ierusalem lapidem portandum cunctis populis; omnes portantes eam concisione lacerabuntur, et colligentur adversus eam omnes gentes terrae.
3. On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it shall grievously hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will come together against it.
4. In die illa, dicit Dominus, percutiam omnem equum in stuporem et ascensorem eius in amentiam; et super domum Iudae aperiam oculos meos et omnem equum populorum percutiam caecitate.
4. On that day, says the LORD, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. But upon the house of Judah I will open my eyes, when I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
5. Et dicent duces Iudae in corde suo: “Robur habitantium Ierusalem est in Domino exercituum, Deo eorum”.
5. Then the clans of Judah shall say to themselves, `The inhabitants of Jerusalem have strength through the LORD of hosts, their God.'
6. In die illa ponam duces Iudae sicut ollam ignis super ligna et sicut facem ignis super fenum; et devorabunt ad dexteram et ad sinistram omnes populos in circuitu, et habitabitur Ierusalem rursus in loco suo.
6. "On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a blazing pot in the midst of wood, like a flaming torch among sheaves; and they shall devour to the right and to the left all the peoples round about, while Jerusalem shall still be inhabited in its place, in Jerusalem.
7. Et salvabit Dominus prius tabernacula Iudae, ut non elevetur gloria domus David et gloria habitantium Ierusalem contra Iudam.
7. "And the LORD will give victory to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not be exalted over that of Judah.
8. In die illa proteget Dominus habitatores Ierusalem; et erit, qui offenderit ex eis in die illa quasi David, et domus David quasi Deus, sicut angelus Domini in conspectu eorum.
8. On that day the LORD will put a shield about the inhabitants of Jerusalem so that the feeblest among them on that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the angel of the LORD, at their head.
9. Et erit: in die illa quaeram conterere omnes gentes, quae veniunt contra Ierusalem,
9. And on that day I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
10. et effundam super domum David et super habitatores Ierusalem spiritum gratiae et precum; et aspicient ad me. Quem confixerunt, plangent quasi planctu super unigenitum et dolebunt super eum, ut doleri solet super primogenitum.
10. "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of compassion and supplication, so that, when they look on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a first-born.
11. In die illa magnus erit planctus in Ierusalem sicut planctus Adadremmon in campo Mageddo;
11. On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning for Hadadrim'mon in the plain of Megid'do.
12. et planget terra, singulae familiae seorsum: familia domus David seorsum et mulieres eorum seorsum; familia domus Nathan seorsum et mulieres eorum seorsum;
12. The land shall mourn, each family by itself; the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;
13. familia domus Levi seorsum et mulieres eorum seorsum; familia Semei seorsum et mulieres eorum seorsum;
13. the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shim'e-ites by itself, and their wives by themselves;
14. omnes reliquae familiae, singulae familiae seorsum et mulieres eorum seorsum.
14. and all the families that are left, each by itself, and their wives by themselves.
