زَكَريَّا 10

١ 1 اُطْلُبُوا مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْمَطَرَ فِي أَوَانِ ٱلْمَطَرِ ٱلْمُتَأَخِّرِ، فَيَصْنَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ بُرُوقًا وَيُعْطِيَهُمْ مَطَرَ ٱلْوَبْلِ. لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ عُشْبًا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ.

Ask of Jehovah rain in the spring time, Jehovah who makes lightnings, and he gives rain showers to everyone for the plants in the field.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّ ٱلتَّرَافِيمَ قَدْ تَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْبَاطِلِ، وَٱلْعَرَّافُونَ رَأَوْا ٱلْكَذِبَ وَأَخْبَرُوا بِأَحْلَامِ كَذِبٍ. يُعَزُّونَ بِٱلْبَاطِلِ. لِذَلِكَ رَحَلُوا كَغَنَمٍ. ذَلُّوا إِذْ لَيْسَ رَاعٍ.

For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they go their way like sheep. They are oppressed, because there is no shepherd.

٣ 3 «عَلَى ٱلرُّعَاةِ ٱشْتَعَلَ غَضَبِي فَعَاقَبْتُ ٱلْأَعْتِدَةَ، لِأَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ تَعَهَّدَ قَطِيعَهُ بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا، وَجَعَلَهُمْ كَفَرَسِ جَلَالِهِ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ.

My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the male goats; For Jehovah of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his majestic horse in the battle.

٤ 4 مِنْهُ ٱلزَّاوِيَةُ. مِنْهُ ٱلْوَتَدُ. مِنْهُ قَوْسُ ٱلْقِتَالِ. مِنْهُ يَخْرُجُ كُلُّ ظَالِمٍ جَمِيعًا.

From him will come forth the cornerstone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.

٥ 5 وَيَكُونُونَ كَٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ ٱلدَّائِسِينَ طِينَ ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ، وَيُحَارِبُونَ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَعَهُمْ، وَٱلرَّاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ يَخْزَوْنَ.

They shall be as mighty men, treading down muddy streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them; and the riders on horses will be confounded.

٦ 6 وَأُقَوِّي بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا، وَأُخَلِّصُ بَيْتَ يُوسُفَ وَأُرَجِّعُهُمْ، لِأَنِّي قَدْ رَحِمْتُهُمْ. وَيَكُونُونَ كَأَنِّي لَمْ أَرْفُضْهُمْ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ فَأُجِيبُهُمْ.

"I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy on them; and they will be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will hear them.

٧ 7 وَيَكُونُ أَفْرَايِمُ كَجَبَّارٍ، وَيَفْرَحُ قَلْبُهُمْ كَأَنَّهُ بِٱلْخَمْرِ، وَيَنْظُرُ بَنُوهُمْ فَيَفْرَحُونَ وَيَبْتَهِجُ قَلْبُهُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ.

Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine; yes, their children will see it, and rejoice. Their heart will be glad in Jehovah.

٨ 8 أَصْفِرُ لَهُمْ وَأَجْمَعُهُمْ لِأَنِّي قَدْ فَدَيْتُهُمْ، وَيَكْثُرُونَ كَمَا كَثُرُوا.

I will signal for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they will increase as they have increased.

٩ 9 وَأَزْرَعُهُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ فَيَذْكُرُونَنِي فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي ٱلْبَعِيدَةِ، وَيَحْيَوْنَ مَعَ بَنِيهِمْ وَيَرْجِعُونَ.

I will sow them among the peoples; and they will remember me in far countries; and they will live with their children, and will return.

١٠ 10 وَأُرْجِعُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَأَجْمَعُهُمْ مِنْ أَشُّورَ، وَآتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ وَلُبْنَانَ، وَلَا يُوجَدُ لَهُمْ مَكَانٌ.

I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and there won't be room enough for them.

١١ 11 وَيَعْبُرُ فِي بَحْرِ ٱلضِّيقِ، وَيَضْرِبُ ٱللُّجَجَ فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَتَجِفُّ كُلُّ أَعْمَاقِ ٱلنَّهْرِ، وَتُخْفَضُ كِبْرِيَاءُ أَشُّورَ، وَيَزُولُ قَضِيبُ مِصْرَ.

He will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.

١٢ 12 وَأُقَوِّيهِمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ، فَيَسْلُكُونَ بِٱسْمِهِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they will walk up and down in his name," says Jehovah.
