Zacharias 10
1 Ask you of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given bright signs, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field.
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，
2 For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the diviners [have ] [seen] false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: therefore have they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing.
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。
3 Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the Lord God Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war.
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。
4 And from him he looked, and from him he set [the battle in order], and from him [came] the bow in anger, [and] from him shall come forth every oppressor together.
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。
5 And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set the battle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.
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!
6 And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settle them; because I have loved them: and they shall be as [if] I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them.
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。
7 And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine: and their children also shall see [it], and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
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。
8 I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shall be multiplied according to their number before.
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。
9 And I will sow them amongst the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: they shall nourish their children, and they shall return.
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。
10 And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from amongst the Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not even one of them be left behind.
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。
11 And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall strike the waves in the sea, and all the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be taken away, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed.
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。
12 And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, says the Lord.
他們的力量全在於上主，他們必以衪的名號為自己的光榮。
