< 撒迦利亞書 10 >
1 到春雨的時節,你們應向上主求雨,上主必興起雷電,降下傾盆大雨,賜人食糧,使田間生出青草,
Ask from Yahweh rain at [the] time of spring rain Yahweh [is] making thunder-clouds and rain of rain he gives to them to everyone vegetation in the field.
2 因為「忒辣芬」所講的只是謊言,占卜者所見的只是虛幻,所報告的只是幻夢,只會以空言安慰人;為此,民眾流離失所,有如沒有牧人的羊群。
For the teraphim they speak wickedness and the diviners they see falsehood and [the] dreams of worthlessness they speak futility they comfort! there-fore they have set out like sheep they are afflicted for there not [is] a shepherd.
3 我的怒火必要向牧人發作,我必要懲罰公山羊,因為萬軍的上主將要看顧自己的羊群──猶大家,使他們有如自己戰埸上的駿馬。
Towards the shepherds it has burned anger my and on the leaders I will visit [judgment] for he visits Yahweh of hosts flock his [the] house of Judah and he will make them like [the] horse of majesty his in battle.
4 角石是出於衪,幕樁是出於衪,戰弓是出於衪,而且所有的首領也是出於衪。
From it a corner from it a peg from it a bow of war from it he will come forth every ruler together.
5 他們全如勇士,在戰埸上踐踏敵人,有如踐踏街上的泥濘;他們必要得勝,因為上主與他們同在;騎馬的人反要慚愧!
And they will be like warriors treading down in [the] mud of [the] streets in battle and they will fight for Yahweh [will be] with them and they will put to shame riders of horses.
6 我要使猶大家強健盛,使若瑟家勝利;我要使他們復興,因為我憐憫了他們,他們必好像我從未放逐過他們一樣:因為我是上主他們的天主,我必要應允他們。
And I will make strong - [the] house of Judah and [the] house of Joseph I will save and I will restore them for I have compassion on them and they will be just as not I had rejected them for I [am] Yahweh God their and I will answer them.
7 厄弗辣因人要如勇士,他們的心必像飲了那樣喜樂;他們的子孫見了也要喜樂,他們的心必歡樂於上主。
And they will be like a warrior Ephraim and it will be glad heart their like wine and children their they will see and they will be glad it may rejoice heart their in Yahweh.
8 我要向他們吹哨,聚集他們,因為我解救了他們;他們的人數眾多,必如昔日一樣。
I will whistle for them and I will gather them for I have redeemed them and they will multiply as they multiplied.
9 我雖曾將他們分散到各異民中,但他們在遠方仍懷念著我,養大自己的兒子,然後歸來。
And I will sow them among the peoples and in the distant places they will remember me and they will live with children their and they will return.
10 我要從埃及地領他們出來,由亞述聚集他們,領他們到基肋阿得地和黎巴嫩,但此地仍然為他們不夠。
And I will bring back them from [the] land of Egypt and from Assyria I will gather them and to [the] land of Gilead and Lebanon I will bring them and not it will be found for them.
11 他們要渡過埃及海,擊打海中的波浪,使河底乾涸;亞述的高傲必要受挫,埃及的權杖必被奪去。
And he will pass in the sea trouble and he will strike in the sea waves and they will dry up all [the] depths of [the] River and it will be brought down [the] pride of Assyria and [the] scepter of Egypt it will depart.
12 他們的力量全在於上主,他們必以衪的名號為自己的光榮。
And I will make strong them by Yahweh and in name his they will go about [the] utterance of Yahweh.
