Zechariah 10
1 Ask of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain; Jehovah will make lightnings, and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.
Mibia Yehowa wòana tsi nadza na mi le tsidzaɣi, elabena Yehowae nana tsi ɖona. Enana tsi dzana na amewo, eye wònana nukuwo miena ɖe bo dzi na ame sia ame.
2 For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams: they comfort in vain. Therefore they have gone away as a flock, they are in distress, because there is no shepherd.
Legbawo blea ame, bokɔnɔwo kpɔa ŋutega siwo mele eteƒe o, wokua drɔ̃e siwo nye aʋatso, eye wogblɔa akɔfanya siwo mevaa eme o. Eya ta ameawo le tsaglalã tsam abe alẽ siwo wote ɖe anyi la ene, elabena kplɔla mele wo si o.
3 Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts visiteth his flock, the house of Judah, and maketh them as his majestic horse in the battle.
“Nye dɔmedzoe bi ɖe alẽkplɔlawo ŋu, eye mahe to na kplɔlawo, elabena Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la akpɔ Yuda ƒe aƒe, eƒe alẽha la ta, eye wòawɔ wo woanɔ abe sɔ si ŋu ŋusẽ le le aʋagbedzi ene.
4 From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every exactor together.
Dzogoedzikpe atso Yuda ava, eye tsyoti, dati siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔna le aʋa me kple dziɖula ɖe sia ɖe atso Yuda ava.
5 And they shall be as mighty men, treading down the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, for Jehovah is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.
Wo katã woabɔ asaɖa abe ŋutsu kalẽtɔ siwo le zɔzɔm le bamɔtatawo dzi le aʋagbedzi ene, elabena Yehowa li kpli wo, woawɔ aʋa, aɖu sɔdolawo dzi.
6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back again; for I will have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will answer them.
“Mado ŋusẽ Yuda ƒe aƒe, eye maɖe Yosef ƒe aƒe, magbugbɔ wo agaɖo te, elabena mekpɔ nublanui na wo. Woanɔ abe ɖe nyemegbe nu le wo gbɔ kpɔ o ene, elabena nyee nye Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la, eye matɔ na wo.
7 And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their hearts shall rejoice as through wine; and their children shall see [it], and rejoice; their heart shall be joyful in Jehovah.
Efraimtɔwo ava nɔ abe ŋutsu kalẽtɔwo ene, eye woƒe dziwo akpɔ dzidzɔ abe wain wono ene. Wo viwo akpɔe, woatso aseye, eye woakpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe Yehowa ŋu.
8 I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall multiply as they used to multiply.
Mana dzesi wo, eye maƒo wo nu ƒu, maɖe wo vavã, eye woagasɔ gbɔ abe tsã ene.
9 And I will sow them among the peoples, and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children and return.
Togbɔ be mekaka wo ɖe amewo dome hã la, woaɖo ŋku dzinye le anyigba didi mawo dzi. Wo kple wo viwo atsi agbe, eye woagatrɔ agbɔ.
10 And I will bring them again 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 [place] shall not be found for them.
Makplɔ wo agbɔe tso Egipte, eye maƒo wo nu ƒu tso Asiria; makplɔ wo va Gilead kple Lebanon, eye womakpɔ teƒe anɔ gɔ̃ hã o.
11 And he shall pass through the sea of affliction, and shall smite the billows in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up; and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.
Woato nuxaxa ƒe atsiaƒu me, ke woaɖu ƒu dzeagbowo dzi, eye Nil tɔsisi ƒe gogloƒewo aƒu kplakplakpla. Woaŋe kɔ le Asiria ƒe dada nu, eye woaɖe Egipte ƒe fiatikplɔ ɖa.
12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk in his name, saith Jehovah.
Mado ŋusẽ wo le Yehowa me, eye eƒe ŋkɔ me woazɔ le.” Yehowae gblɔe.
