Zechariah 10
1 Ask ye of Yhwh rain in the time of the latter rain; so Yhwh shall make bright clouds, and 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 idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there was 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 was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for Yhwh of Armies hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.
Super pastores iratus est furor meus, et super hircos visitabo: quia visitavit Dominus exercituum gregem suum, domum Juda, et posuit eos quasi equum gloriæ suæ in bello.
4 Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.
Ex ipso angulus, ex ipso paxillus, ex ipso arcus prælii, ex ipso egredietur omnis exactor simul.
5 And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because Yhwh is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.
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 again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Yhwh their God, and will hear them.
Et confortabo domum Juda, et domum Joseph salvabo: et convertam eos, quia miserebor eorum: et erunt sicut fuerunt quando non projeceram eos: ego enim Dominus Deus eorum, et exaudiam eos.
7 And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in Yhwh.
Et erunt quasi fortes Ephraim, et lætabitur cor eorum quasi a vino: et filii eorum videbunt, et lætabuntur, et exsultabit cor eorum in Domino.
8 I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased.
Sibilabo eis, et congregabo illos, quia redemi eos: et multiplicabo eos sicut ante fuerant multiplicati.
9 And I will sow them among the people: and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and turn again.
Et seminabo eos in populis, et de longe recordabuntur mei: et vivent cum filiis suis, et revertentur.
10 I will bring them again also 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 with affliction, and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the river 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 Yhwh; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Yhwh.
Confortabo eos in Domino, et in nomine ejus ambulabunt, dicit Dominus.]
