耶和华话语的默示，指责哈得拉地，这话落定之处是在大马色（因为耶和华的眼目在人身上，特别在以色列各支派身上），
The burden of the word of Jehovah against the land of Hadrach, / And Damascus will be its resting place / (For Jehovah has an eye on man, / Especially on the tribes of Israel),

也是在与其交界的哈马，并推罗、西顿，因为这二城的人大有智慧。
And Hamath also, which borders on it; / Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.

推罗为自己修筑保障，积蓄银子如尘沙，堆起精金如街上的泥土。
For Tyre built herself a stronghold / And heaped up silver like dust / And gold like the mire of the streets.

主必夺取她为业，击打她海上的势力；她必被火烧灭。
The Lord is about to take possession of her, / And He will strike her might in the sea, / And she will be consumed with fire.

亚实基伦看见必惧怕；迦萨看见必甚痛苦；以革伦因失了盼望蒙羞。迦萨必不再有君王，亚实基伦也不再有居民。
Ashkelon will see it and be afraid; / Gaza also, and it will writhe much in anguish; / And Ekron, for her expectation will have been confounded. / And the king will perish from Gaza, / And Ashkelon will not be inhabited.

混杂的种族必住在亚实突；我必除灭非利士人的骄傲。
And a mixed race will dwell in Ashdod, / And I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.

我必除去他口中所喝之血，和牙齿间可憎之物；他也必作为余剩的人，归与我们的神；他必在犹大像族长，以革伦人必如耶布斯人。
And I will remove his blood from his mouth / And his detestable things from between his teeth; / And he also will remain unto our God; / And he will be like a leader in Judah, / And Ekron will be like a Jebusite.

我必在我家的四围安营，使敌军不得往返经过；欺压人的必不再临到他们；因为我如今亲眼看顾我的家。
And I will encamp around My house because of an army, / Because of him who passes by and returns; / And no oppressor will pass over them anymore; / For now I see with My eyes.

锡安的女子啊，应当大大欢腾；耶路撒冷的女子啊，应当欢呼！看哪，你的王来到你这里。祂是公义的，并且施行拯救，卑微柔和的骑着驴，骑着驴驹，就是驴的崽子。
Exult greatly, O daughter of Zion; / Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! / Now your King comes to you. / He is righteous and bears salvation, / Lowly and riding upon a donkey, / Even upon a colt, the foal of a donkey,

我必除灭以法莲的战车和耶路撒冷的战马，争战的弓也必除灭；祂必向列国讲和平，祂的权柄必从这海管到那海，从大河管到地极。
And 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 unto the nations, / And His dominion will be from sea to sea / And from the River unto the ends of the earth.

至于你，我因与你立约的血，将你中间被掳而囚的人，从无水的坑中释放出来。
As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, / I have released your captives from the pit, where there is no water.

你们被囚而有指望的人哪，要转回保障。我今日说明，我必加倍归还你们。
Turn to the stronghold, O prisoners with hope. / This very day I am declaring that I will restore double to you.

因为我必拿犹大作我上弦的弓，拿以法莲作我张弓的箭；锡安哪，我要激动你的众子，攻击雅完的众子，使你如勇士的刀。
For I will bend Judah for Myself, / And I will fill a bow with Ephraim; / And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, / Against your sons, O Javan; / And I will make you like a warrior's sword.

耶和华必显现在他们以上，祂的箭必射出像闪电；主耶和华必吹角，乘南方的旋风而行。
And Jehovah will appear above them, / And His arrow will go forth like lightning; / And the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, / And He will go in the whirlwinds of the south.

万军之耶和华必保护他们；他们必吞灭仇敌，践踏弹石。他们必喝血喧闹，如同喝醉了酒；他们必像盛满血的碗，像祭坛四角满了血。
Jehovah of hosts will defend them; / And they will devour and trample the sling stones. / And they will drink; they will be noisy as if with wine; / And they will be filled like a sacrificial basin, / Like the corners of the altar.

当那日，耶和华他们的神必看祂的民如群羊，拯救他们，因为他们必像冠冕上的宝石，在祂的地上发光辉。
And Jehovah their God will save them in that day as the flock of His people, / For they will be like the stones of a crown, sparkling in His land.

因为他们的善何等大，他们的美何其盛！五谷使少男健壮，新酒使处女焕发。
For how great is their goodness, and how great their beauty! / Grain will make the young men flourish, / And new wine, the virgins.
