Zechariah 9 Free Bible Version (Spanish)
1 Una profecía: Un mensaje del Señor a la tierra de Hadrac, y Damasco es su principal objetivo. Porque los ojos de todos los seres humanos y todas las tribus de Israel están atentos al Señor,
1 A revelation. Yahweh’s word 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 Yahweh—
2 así también el territorio de Jamat, que está cerca de Damasco. De igual manera Tiro y Sidón, porque son ciudades muy sabias.
2 and Hamath, also, which borders on it, Tyre and Sidon, because they are very wise.
3 El pueblo de Tiro construyó un castillo, y acumuló plata como el polvo, y oro como el mugre en las calles.
3 Tyre built herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver like the dust, and fine gold like the mire of the streets.
4 Pero miren lo que sucederá: El Señor les quitará todo lo que poseen, y destruirá su defensa fuerte hasta derribarla al mar. La ciudad será consumida con fuego.
4 Behold, the Lord will dispossess her, and he will strike her power in the sea; and she will be devoured with fire.
5 El puelo de Ascalón verá todo lo que sucederá y temerán. Los que están en Gaza andarán de aquí para allá con angustia como una mujer a punto de dar a luz; y el pueblo de Ecrón también temblará, porque sus esperanzas se desvanecerán. El rey de Gaza será asesinado, y Ascalón quedará como un desierto.
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.
6 Gentes de razas mezcladas vivirán en Asdod, y yo quitaré el motivo de orgullo de los filisteos.
6 Foreigners will dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 Arrebataré la carne ensangrentada de sus bocas, y la comida impura de sus quijadas. Los que quedan le pertenecerán a nuestro Dios—serán como una familia de Judá—y los de Ecrón serán parte de mi pueblo, tal como los Jebusitas.
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.
8 Acamparé en mi Templo para salvaguardarlo de los invasores, ni habrá opresores que lo conquisten, porque yo mismo seré el que vigila.
8 I will encamp around my house against the army, that no one pass through or return; and no oppressor will pass through them any more: for now I have seen with my eyes.
9 Estén felices y celebren, pueblo de Sión! ¡Grita, pueblo de Jerusalén! Mira, tu rey viene hacia ti. Él hace lo recto y trae la salvación; es humilde, viene montado sobre un asno—en realidad sobre un potro, que es la cría de un asno.
9 Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion! Shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, 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.
10 (Yo destruiré los carruajes de Efraín y los caballos e Guerra de Jerusalén. Destruiré los arcos que usaron en batalla). Él proclamará paz a las naciones, y gobernará de mar a mar, desde el río Éufrates hasta los confines de la tierra.
10 I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim and the horse from Jerusalem. The battle bow will be cut off; and he will speak peace to the nations. His dominion will be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.
11 Y en cuanto a ti, porque mi acuerdo contigo, sellado con sangre, te liberaré del pozo seco.
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.
12 ¡Vuelvan a los baluartes, prisioneros con esperanza! Hoy les prometo que les pagaré el doble de lo que han perdido.
12 Turn to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope! Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
13 Usaré a Judá como mi arco, y lo llenaré de Efraín como mi flecha. Los llamaré a ustedes, hombres de Sión para que peleen contra Grecia, empuñando la espada como un guerrero.
13 For indeed I bend Judah as a bow for me. I have loaded the bow with Ephraim. I will stir up your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, and will make you like the sword of a mighty man.
14 ¡Entonces el Señor aparecerá sobre su pueblo y su flecha resplandecerá como relámpago! El Señor Dios hará sonar la trompeta y marchará como un vendaval que viene del sur.
14 Yahweh will be seen over them. His arrow will flash like lightning. The Lord Yahweh will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
15 El Señor Todopoderoso los protegerá. Destruirán a sus enemigos y los conquistarán con hondas. Ellos beberán y gritarán como borrachos. Estarán llenos como una taza, empapados como las esquinas de un altar.
15 Yahweh of Armies will defend them. They will destroy and overcome with sling stones. They will drink, and roar as through wine. They will be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
16 Ese día el Señor su Dios los salvará—su pueblo que son su rebaño—porque ellos resplandecen como joyas de una corona en su tierra.
16 Yahweh 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.
17 Cuán hermosos y esplendorosos serán! El grano y el nuevo vino darán fuerza a los hombres jóvenes y harán florecer a las mujeres jóvenes.
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.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The words are these: "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass." Chapter XXXVI — Different modes of prophecy But when you hear the utterances of the prophets spoken as it were personally, you must not …
… behold, thy King shall come unto thee, just and the Saviour; Himself poor, and mounting an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass: and His dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth." How this was done, when the Lord Christ on His journey used a beast of …

Some, again, have a prophetic sense, and of these some are in the future tense: for instance, He shall come openly, and this from Zechariah, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, and this from Micah, Behold, the Lord cometh out of His place and will come down and tread upon the high places of the earth.
