< 撒迦利亚书 10 >

1 当春雨的时候, 你们要向发闪电的耶和华求雨。 他必为众人降下甘霖, 使田园生长菜蔬。
Ask from the Lord rain at the time of the latter rain, [from] the Lord who maketh lightning-clouds: and he will give unto them showers of rain, to every herb in the field.
2 因为,家神所言的是虚空; 卜士所见的是虚假; 做梦者所说的是假梦。 他们白白地安慰人, 所以众人如羊流离, 因无牧人就受苦。
For the Theraphim speak vanity, and the diviners foresee a lie, and those that have dreams speak what is false, with nought do they comfort: therefore do they move about like a flock, they bleat, because [they have] no shepherd.
3 我的怒气向牧人发作; 我必惩罚公山羊; 因我—万军之耶和华 眷顾自己的羊群,就是犹大家, 必使他们如骏马在阵上。
Against the shepherds is my anger kindled, and on the he-goats will I inflict punishment; for the Lord of hosts thinketh of his flock, the house of Judah, and maketh them as his elegant horse in the battle.
4 房角石、钉子、争战的弓, 和一切掌权的都从他而出。
Out of him cometh forth the corner [-stone], out of him the tent-nail, out of him the battle-bow, out of him every ruler [of others] together.
5 他们必如勇士在阵上 将仇敌践踏在街上的泥土中。 他们必争战,因为耶和华与他们同在; 骑马的也必羞愧。
And they shall be like mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle, and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them: and the riders on horses shall be made ashamed.
6 我要坚固犹大家,拯救约瑟家, 要领他们归回。 我要怜恤他们; 他们必像未曾弃绝的一样, 都因我是耶和华—他们的 神, 我必应允他们的祷告。
And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and the house of Joseph will I save, and I will bring them again to their own homes; for I have mercy upon them, and they shall be as though I had never cast them off; for I am the Lord their God, and I will answer their prayer.
7 以法莲人必如勇士; 他们心中畅快如同喝酒; 他们的儿女必看见而快活; 他们的心必因耶和华喜乐。
And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as though from wine: and their children shall see it, and be rejoiced; their heart shall be glad in the Lord.
8 我要发嘶声,聚集他们, 因我已经救赎他们。 他们的人数必加增, 如从前加增一样。
I will call for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased [formerly].
9 我虽然播散他们在列国中, 他们必在远方记念我。 他们与儿女都必存活,且得归回。
And when I shall have scattered them among the people, they will remember me in the far-off countries: therefore shall they live with their children, and return again.
10 我必再领他们出埃及地, 招聚他们出亚述, 领他们到基列和黎巴嫩; 这地尚且不够他们居住。
And I will bring them back again out of the land of Egypt, and out of Assyria will I gather them; and into the land of Gil'ad and Lebanon will I bring them, and it shall not be sufficient for them.
11 耶和华必经过苦海,击打海浪, 使尼罗河的深处都枯干。 亚述的骄傲必致卑微; 埃及的权柄必然灭没。
And he will pass through the sea [with] distress, and he will smite in the sea the waves, and there shall dry up all the deeps of the stream: and there shall be brought down the pride of Assyria, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.
12 我必使他们倚靠我,得以坚固; 一举一动必奉我的名。 这是耶和华说的。
And I will strengthen them in the Lord, and in his name shall they ever walk, saith the Lord.
