< Zechariah 10 >
1 Aske you of the Lord raine in the time of the latter raine: so shall the Lord make white cloudes, and giue you showers of raine, and to euery one grasse in the field.
αἰτεῖσθε ὑετὸν παρὰ κυρίου καθ’ ὥραν πρόιμον καὶ ὄψιμον κύριος ἐποίησεν φαντασίας καὶ ὑετὸν χειμερινὸν δώσει αὐτοῖς ἑκάστῳ βοτάνην ἐν ἀγρῷ
2 Surely the idols haue spoken vanitie, and the southsayers haue seene a lye, and the dreamers haue tolde a vaine thing: they comfort in vaine: therefore they went away as sheepe: they were troubled, because there was no shepheard.
διότι οἱ ἀποφθεγγόμενοι ἐλάλησαν κόπους καὶ οἱ μάντεις ὁράσεις ψευδεῖς καὶ τὰ ἐνύπνια ψευδῆ ἐλάλουν μάταια παρεκάλουν διὰ τοῦτο ἐξήρθησαν ὡς πρόβατα καὶ ἐκακώθησαν διότι οὐκ ἦν ἴασις
3 My wrath was kindled against the shepherdes, and I did visite the goates: but the Lord of hostes will visite his flocke the house of Iudah, and will make them as his beautifull horse in the battell.
ἐπὶ τοὺς ποιμένας παρωξύνθη ὁ θυμός μου καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀμνοὺς ἐπισκέψομαι καὶ ἐπισκέψεται κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ τὸν οἶκον Ιουδα καὶ τάξει αὐτοὺς ὡς ἵππον εὐπρεπῆ αὐτοῦ ἐν πολέμῳ
4 Out of him shall the corner come foorth: out of him the nayle, out of him ye bowe of battell, and out of him euery appointer of tribute also.
καὶ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐπέβλεψεν καὶ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἔταξεν καὶ ἐξ αὐτοῦ τόξον ἐν θυμῷ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται πᾶς ὁ ἐξελαύνων ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ
5 And they shalbe as the mightie men, which treade downe their enemies in the mire of the streetes in the battell, and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.
καὶ ἔσονται ὡς μαχηταὶ πατοῦντες πηλὸν ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς ἐν πολέμῳ καὶ παρατάξονται διότι κύριος μετ’ αὐτῶν καὶ καταισχυνθήσονται ἀναβάται ἵππων
6 And I will strengthen the house of Iudah, and I will preserue the house of Ioseph, and I wil bring them againe, for I pitie them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and will heare them.
καὶ κατισχύσω τὸν οἶκον Ιουδα καὶ τὸν οἶκον Ιωσηφ σώσω καὶ κατοικιῶ αὐτούς ὅτι ἠγάπησα αὐτούς καὶ ἔσονται ὃν τρόπον οὐκ ἀπεστρεψάμην αὐτούς διότι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπακούσομαι αὐτοῖς
7 And they of Ephraim shall be as a gyant, and their heart shall reioyce as thorowe wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad: and their heart shall reioyce in the Lord.
καὶ ἔσονται ὡς μαχηταὶ τοῦ Εφραιμ καὶ χαρήσεται ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν ὡς ἐν οἴνῳ καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν ὄψονται καὶ εὐφρανθήσονται καὶ χαρεῖται ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῷ κυρίῳ
8 I will hisse for them, and gather them: for I haue redeemed them: and they shall encrease, as they haue encreased.
σημανῶ αὐτοῖς καὶ εἰσδέξομαι αὐτούς διότι λυτρώσομαι αὐτούς καὶ πληθυνθήσονται καθότι ἦσαν πολλοί
9 And I will sowe them among the people, and they shall remember me in farre countreys: and they shall liue with their children and turne againe.
καὶ σπερῶ αὐτοὺς ἐν λαοῖς καὶ οἱ μακρὰν μνησθήσονταί μου ἐκθρέψουσιν τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπιστρέψουσιν
10 I will bring them againe also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Asshur: and I will bring them into the land of Gilead, and Lebanon, and place shall not be found for them.
καὶ ἐπιστρέψω αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐξ Ἀσσυρίων εἰσδέξομαι αὐτοὺς καὶ εἰς τὴν Γαλααδῖτιν καὶ εἰς τὸν Λίβανον εἰσάξω αὐτούς καὶ οὐ μὴ ὑπολειφθῇ ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδὲ εἷς
11 And he shall goe into the sea with affliction, and shall smite the waues in the sea, and all the depthes of the riuer shall drye vp: and the pride of Asshur shall be cast downe, and the scepter of Egypt shall depart away.
καὶ διελεύσονται ἐν θαλάσσῃ στενῇ καὶ πατάξουσιν ἐν θαλάσσῃ κύματα καὶ ξηρανθήσεται πάντα τὰ βάθη ποταμῶν καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσεται πᾶσα ὕβρις Ἀσσυρίων καὶ σκῆπτρον Αἰγύπτου περιαιρεθήσεται
12 And I will strengthen them in the Lord, and they shall walke in his Name, sayth the Lord.
καὶ κατισχύσω αὐτοὺς ἐν κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ κατακαυχήσονται λέγει κύριος
