< 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.
Pedi, vós, ao SENHOR chuva no tempo da chuva tardia; o SENHOR faz relâmpagos, e lhes dará chuva abundante, e erva no campo a cada um.
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.
Pois os ídolos falam ilusão, e os adivinhos veem falsidade, e falado sonhos ilusórios; com ilusão consolam; por isso eles foram embora como ovelhas, humilhadas, porque não havia pastor.
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.
Minha ira se acendeu contra os pastores, e castigarei os bodes; mas o SENHOR dos exércitos visitará seu rebanho, a casa de Judá, e fará com que sejam como seu cavalo de honra na batalha.
4 From him [is] a cornerstone, From him a nail, from him a battle-bow, From him goes forth every exactor together.
De ele [sairá] a pedra angular, a estaca, e o arco da guerra; dele juntamente sairá todo dominador.
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.
E serão como guerreiros que pisam [o inimigo] na lama das ruas na batalha; e lutarão, porque o SENHOR estará com eles; e envergonharão aos que montam em cavalos.
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.
E eu fortalecerei a casa de Judá, e salvarei a casa de José; e voltarei a estabelecê-los, porque me compadeci deles; e serão como se eu não tivesse os rejeitado, porque eu sou o SENHOR, Deus deles, que os ouvirei.
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.
E Efraim será como guerreiro, e seu coração se alegrará como de vinho; seus filhos verão, e ficarão contentes; seus corações se alegrarão no SENHOR.
8 I hiss for them, and I gather them, For I have redeemed them, And they have multiplied as they multiplied.
Eu assoviarei a eles, e os ajuntarei, porque eu os resgatarei; e serão muitos assim como eram muitos [no passado].
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.
E eu os semearei entre os povos, e se lembrarão de mim em lugares remotos; e viverão com seus filhos, e voltarão.
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.
Eu os trarei de volta da terra do Egito, e os recolherei da Assíria; e os trarei à terra de Gileade e do Líbano, mas não será [espaço] suficiente para eles.
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.
Ele passará pela mar da aflição, ferirá as ondas do mar, e todas as profundezas do rio se secarão; e a arrogância dos assírios será derrubada, e o cetro do Egito será tomado.
12 And I have made them mighty in YHWH, And in His Name they walk up and down,” A declaration of YHWH!
E eu os fortificarei no SENHOR, e andarão em seu nome, diz o SENHOR.
