This paper is a continuation of math.QA/9907181 and math.QA/9908115. We consider traces of intertwiners between certain representations of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a semisimple complex Lie algebra g, which are twisted by a ``generalized Belavin-Drinfeld triple'', i.e a triple consisting of two subdiagrams of the Dynkin diagram of g together with an isomorphism between them. The generating functions F(lambda,mu) for such traces depend on two weights lambda and mu. We show that F(lambda,mu) satisfy two sets of difference equations in the variable lambda: the Macdonald-Ruijsenaars (MR) equations and the quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (qKZB) equations. These equations involve as a main ingredient the quantum dynamical R-matrices constructed in math.QA/9912009. When the generalized Belavin-Drinfeld triple is an automorphism, we show that F(lambda,mu) satisfy another two sets of difference equations with respect to the weight mu. These dual MR and dual qKZB equations involve the usual Felder's dynamical R-matrix. These results were first obtained by the first author and A. Varchenko in the special case of the trivial Belavin-Drinfeld triple. However, the symmetry between lambda and mu which exists in that case is destroyed in the twisted setting. At the end, we brielfly treat the (simialr) case of Kac-Moody algebras g and derive the classical limits of all the previous results.
