Zechariah 9
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and of Damascus the rest thereof: for the eye of man, and of all the tribes of Israel is the Lord’s. | Onus verbi Domini in terra Hadrach et Damasci requiei eius, quia Domini est oculus hominis et omnium tribuum Israël. |
| 2 | Emath also in the borders thereof, and Tyre, and Sidon: for they have taken to themselves to be exceeding wise. | Emath quoque in terminis eius, et Tyrus, et Sidon: assumpserunt quippe sibi sapientiam valde. |
| 3 | And Tyre hath built herself a strong hold, and heaped together silver as earth, and gold as the mire of the streets. | Et aedificavit Tyrus munitionem suam, et coacervavit argentum quasi humum, et aurum ut lutum platearum. |
| 4 | Behold the Lord shall possess her, and shall strike her strength in the sea, and she shall be devoured with fire. | Ecce Dominus possidebit eam: et percutiet in mari fortitudinem eius, et haec igni devorabitur. |
| 5 | Ascalon shall see, and shall fear, and Gaza, and shall be very sorrowful: and Accaron, because her hope is confounded: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ascalon shall not be inhabited. | 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 | And the divider shall sit in Azotus, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines. | Et sedebit separator in Azoto, et disperdam superbiam Philisthinorum. |
| 7 | And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: and even he shall be left to our God, and he shall be as a governor in Juda, and Accaron as a Jebusite. | 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 Iebusaeus. |
| 8 | And I will encompass my house with them that serve me in war, going and returning, and the oppressor shall no more pass through them: for now I have seen with my eyes. | 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 | Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Sion, shout for joy, O daughter of Jerusalem: BEHOLD THY KING will come to thee, the just and saviour: he is poor, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. | Exsulta satis, filia Sion; iubila, filia Ierusalem: ecce rex tuus veniet tibi iustus, et salvator: ipse pauper, et ascendens super asinam et super pullum filium asinae. |
| 10 | And I will destroy the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the bow for war shall be broken: and he shall speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power shall be from sea to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth. | Et disperdam quadrigam ex Ephraim, et equum de Ierusalem, et dissipabitur arcus belli: et loquetur pacem gentibus, et potestas eius a mari usque ad mare, et a fluminibus usque ad fines terrae. |
| 11 | Thou also by the blood of thy testament hast sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit, wherein is no water. | Tu quoque in sanguine testamenti tui emisisti vinctos tuos de lacu in quo non est aqua. |
| 12 | Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope, I will render thee double at, I declare today. | Convertimini ad munitionem, vincti spei: hodie quoque annuntians duplicia reddam tibi. |
| 13 | Because I have bent Juda for me as a bow, I have filled Ephraim: and I will raise up thy sons, O Sion, above thy sons, O Greece, and I will make thee as the sword of the mighty. | Quoniam extendi mihi Iudam quasi arcum: implevi Ephraim: et suscitabo filios tuos, Sion, super filios tuos, Graecia: et ponam te quasi gladium fortium. |
| 14 | And the Lord God shall be seen over them, and his dart shall go forth as lightning: and the Lord God will sound the trumpet, and go in the whirlwind of the south. | Et Dominus Deus super eos videbitur, et exibit ut fulgur iaculum eius: et Dominus Deus in tuba canet, et vadet in turbine austri. |
| 15 | The Lord of hosts will protect them: and they shall devour, and subdue with the stones of the sling: and drinking they shall be inebriated as it were with wine, and they shall be filled as bowls, and as the horns of the altar. | Dominus exercituum proteget eos: et devorabunt, et subiicient lapidibus fundae: et bibentes inebriabuntur quasi a vino, et replebuntur ut phialae, et quasi cornua altaris. |
| 16 | And the Lord their God will save them in that day, as the dock of his people: for holy stones shall be lifted up over his land. | Et salvabit eos Dominus Deus eorum in die illa, ut gregem populi sui, quia lapides sancti elevabuntur super terram eius. |
| 17 | For what is the good thing of him, and what is his beautiful thing, but the corn of the elect, and wine springing forth virgins? | Quid enim bonum eius est, et quid pulchrum eius, nisi frumentum electorum, et vinum germinans virgines? |
