Zechariah 10
1 They asked of YHWH rain In a time of spring rain, YHWH is making lightnings, And He gives to them rain [in] showers. To each—the herb in the field.
當春雨的時候， 你們要向發閃電的耶和華求雨。 他必為眾人降下甘霖， 使田園生長菜蔬。
2 Because the teraphim spoke iniquity, And the diviners have seen a falsehood, And dreams of the vanity they speak, [With] vanity they give comfort, Therefore they have journeyed as a flock, They are afflicted, for there is no shepherd.
因為，家神所言的是虛空； 卜士所見的是虛假； 做夢者所說的是假夢。 他們白白地安慰人， 所以眾人如羊流離， 因無牧人就受苦。
3 “My anger burned against the shepherds, And I lay a charge against the male goats, For YHWH of Hosts has inspected His flock, the house of Judah, And set them as His splendid horse in battle.
我的怒氣向牧人發作； 我必懲罰公山羊； 因我－萬軍之耶和華 眷顧自己的羊群，就是猶大家， 必使他們如駿馬在陣上。
4 From him [is] a cornerstone, From him a nail, from him a battle-bow, From him goes forth every exactor together.
房角石、釘子、爭戰的弓， 和一切掌權的都從他而出。
5 And they have been as heroes, Treading in mire of out-places in battle, And they have fought, for YHWH [is] with them, And have put to shame riders of horses.
他們必如勇士在陣上 將仇敵踐踏在街上的泥土中。 他們必爭戰，因為耶和華與他們同在； 騎馬的也必羞愧。
6 And I have made the house of Judah mighty, And I save the house of Joseph, And I have caused them to dwell, for I have loved them, And they have been as [if] I had not cast them off, For I [am] their God YHWH, And I answer them.
我要堅固猶大家，拯救約瑟家， 要領他們歸回。 我要憐恤他們； 他們必像未曾棄絕的一樣， 都因我是耶和華－他們的上帝， 我必應允他們的禱告。
7 And Ephraim has been as a hero, And their heart has rejoiced as wine, And their sons see, and they have rejoiced, Their heart rejoices in YHWH.
以法蓮人必如勇士； 他們心中暢快如同喝酒； 他們的兒女必看見而快活； 他們的心必因耶和華喜樂。
8 I hiss for them, and I gather them, For I have redeemed them, And they have multiplied as they multiplied.
我要發嘶聲，聚集他們， 因我已經救贖他們。 他們的人數必加增， 如從前加增一樣。
9 And I sow them among peoples, And in far-off places they remember Me, And they have lived with their sons, And they have turned back.
我雖然播散他們在列國中， 他們必在遠方記念我。 他們與兒女都必存活，且得歸回。
10 And I have brought them back from the land of Egypt, And I gather them from Asshur, And I bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, And [space] is not found for them there.
我必再領他們出埃及地， 招聚他們出亞述， 領他們到基列和黎巴嫩； 這地尚且不夠他們居住。
11 And He has passed over through the sea, And has pressed and struck billows in the sea, And all depths of a flood have been dried up, And the excellence of Asshur has been brought down, And the rod of Egypt turns aside.
耶和華必經過苦海，擊打海浪， 使尼羅河的深處都枯乾。 亞述的驕傲必致卑微； 埃及的權柄必然滅沒。
12 And I have made them mighty in YHWH, And in His Name they walk up and down,” A declaration of YHWH!
我必使他們倚靠我，得以堅固； 一舉一動必奉我的名。 這是耶和華說的。
