< 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.
Petite a Domino pluviam in tempore serotino, et Dominus faciet nives, et pluviam imbris dabit eis, singulis herbam in agro.
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.
Quia simulacra locuta sunt inutile, et divini viderunt mendacium, et somniatores locuti sunt frustra: vane consolabantur: idcirco abducti sunt quasi grex: affligentur, quia non est eis pastor.
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.
Super pastores iratus est furor meus, et super hircos visitabo: quia visitavit Dominus exercituum gregem suum, domum Iuda, et posuit eos quasi equum gloriæ suæ in bello.
4 From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every exactor together.
Ex ipso angulus, ex ipso paxillas, ex ipso arcus prælii, ex ipso egredietur omnis exactor simul.
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.
Et erunt quasi fortes conculcantes lutum viarum in prælio: et bellabunt, quia Dominus cum eis: et confundentur ascensores equorum.
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.
Et confortabo domum Iuda, et domum Ioseph salvabo: et convertam eos, quia miserebor eorum: et erunt sicut fuerunt quando non proieceram eos: ego enim Dominus Deus eorum, et exaudiam eos.
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.
Et erunt quasi fortes Ephraim, et lætabitur cor eorum quasi a vino: et filii eorum videbunt, et lætabuntur, et exultabit cor eorum in Domino.
8 I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall multiply as they used to multiply.
Sibilabo eis, et congregabo illos, quia redemi eos: et multiplicabo eos sicut ante fuerant multiplicati.
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.
Et seminabo eos in populis, et de longe recordabuntur mei: et vivent cum filiis suis, et revertentur.
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.
Et reducam eos de Terra Ægypti, et de Assyriis congregabo eos, et ad Terram Galaad et Libani adducam eos, et non invenietur eis locus:
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.
et transibit in maris freto, et percutiet in mari fluctus, et confundentur omnia profunda fluminis, et humiliabitur superbia Assur, et sceptrum Ægypti recedet.
12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk in his name, saith Jehovah.
Confortabo eos in Domino, et in nomine eius ambulabunt, dicit Dominus.
