Zechariah 9

New Century Version NCV

1 This message is the word of the Lord. and the city of Damascus. belong to the Lord.

2 The message is also against the city of Hamath, on the border, and against Tyre and Sidon, with their skill.

3 Tyre has built a strong wall for herself. She has piled up silver like dust and gold like the mud in the streets.

4 But the Lord will take away all she has and destroy her power on the sea. That city will be destroyed by fire.

5 The city of Ashkelon will see it and be afraid. The people of Gaza will shake with fear, and the people of Ekron will lose hope. No king will be left in Gaza, and no one will live in Ashkelon anymore.

6 Foreigners will live in Ashdod, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.

7 I will stop them from drinking blood and from eating forbidden food. Those left alive will belong to God. They will be leaders in Judah, and Ekron will become like the Jebusites.

8 I will protect my Temple from armies who would come or go. No one will hurt my people again, because now I am watching them.

9 Rejoice greatly, people of Jerusalem! Shout for joy, people of Jerusalem! Your king is coming to you. He does what is right, and he saves. He is gentle and riding on a donkey, on the colt of a donkey.

10 I will take away the chariots from Ephraim and the horses from Jerusalem. The bows used in war will be broken. The king will talk to the nations about peace. His kingdom will go from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.

11 As for you, because of the blood of the agreement with you I will set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.

12 You prisoners who have hope, return to your place of safety. Today I am telling you that I will give you back twice as much as before.

13 I will use Judah like a bow and Ephraim like the arrows. Jerusalem, I will use your men to fight the men of Greece. I will use you like a warrior's sword.

14 Then the Lord will appear above them, and his arrows will shoot like lightning. The Lord God will blow the trumpet, and he will march in the storms of the south.

15 The Lord All-Powerful will protect them; they will destroy the enemy with slingshots. They will drink and shout like drunk men. They will be filled like a bowl used for sprinkling blood at the corners of the altar.

16 On that day the Lord their God will save them as if his people were sheep. They will shine in his land like jewels in a crown.

17 They will be so pretty and beautiful. The young men will grow strong on the grain and the young women on new wine.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 onus verbi Domini in terra Adrach et Damasci requiei eius quia Domini est oculus hominis et omnium tribuum Israhel

2 Emath quoque in terminis eius et Tyrus et Sidon adsumpserunt quippe sibi sapientiam valde

3 et aedificavit Tyrus munitionem suam et coacervavit argentum quasi humum et aurum ut lutum platearum

4 ecce Dominus possidebit eam et percutiet in mari fortitudinem eius et haec igni devorabitur

5 videbit Ascalon et timebit et Gaza et dolebit nimis et Accaron quoniam confusa est spes eius et peribit rex de Gaza et Ascalon non habitabitur

6 et sedebit separator in Azoto et disperdam superbiam Philisthinorum

7 et auferam sanguinem eius de ore eius et abominationes eius de medio dentium eius et relinquetur etiam ipse Deo nostro et erit quasi dux in Iuda et Accaron quasi Iebuseus

8 et circumdabo domum meam ex his qui militant mihi euntes et revertentes et non transibit super eos ultra exactor quia nunc vidi in oculis meis

9 exulta satis filia Sion iubila filia Hierusalem ecce rex tuus veniet tibi iustus et salvator ipse pauper et ascendens super asinum et super pullum filium asinae

10 et disperdam quadrigam ex Ephraim et equum de Hierusalem et dissipabitur arcus belli et loquetur pacem gentibus et potestas eius a mari usque ad mare et a fluminibus usque ad fines terrae

11 tu quoque in sanguine testamenti tui emisisti vinctos tuos de lacu in quo non est aqua

12 convertimini ad munitionem vincti spei hodie quoque adnuntians duplicia reddam tibi

13 quoniam extendi mihi Iudam quasi arcum implevi Ephraim et suscitabo filios tuos Sion super filios tuos Graecia et ponam te quasi gladium fortium

14 et Dominus Deus super eos videbitur et exibit ut fulgur iaculum eius et Dominus Deus in tuba canet et vadet in turbine austri

15 Dominus exercituum proteget eos et devorabunt et subicient lapidibus fundae et bibentes inebriabuntur quasi vino et replebuntur ut fialae et quasi cornua altaris

16 et salvabit eos Dominus Deus eorum in die illa ut gregem populi sui quia lapides sancti elevantur super terram eius

17 quid enim bonum eius est et quid pulchrum eius nisi frumentum electorum et vinum germinans virgines
