< Zechariah 10 >

1 Ask of YHWH rain in the spring time, YHWH who makes lightnings, and he gives rain showers to everyone for the plants in the field.
当春雨的时候, 你们要向发闪电的耶和华求雨。 他必为众人降下甘霖, 使田园生长菜蔬。
2 For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they go their way like sheep. They are oppressed, because there is no shepherd.
因为,家神所言的是虚空; 卜士所见的是虚假; 做梦者所说的是假梦。 他们白白地安慰人, 所以众人如羊流离, 因无牧人就受苦。
3 My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the male goats; For YHWH of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his majestic horse in the battle.
我的怒气向牧人发作; 我必惩罚公山羊; 因我—万军之耶和华 眷顾自己的羊群,就是犹大家, 必使他们如骏马在阵上。
4 From him will come forth the cornerstone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.
房角石、钉子、争战的弓, 和一切掌权的都从他而出。
5 They shall be as mighty men, treading down muddy streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because YHWH is with them; and the riders on horses will be confounded.
他们必如勇士在阵上 将仇敌践踏在街上的泥土中。 他们必争战,因为耶和华与他们同在; 骑马的也必羞愧。
6 "I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy on them; and they will be as though I had not cast them off: for I am YHWH their God, and I will hear them.
我要坚固犹大家,拯救约瑟家, 要领他们归回。 我要怜恤他们; 他们必像未曾弃绝的一样, 都因我是耶和华—他们的 神, 我必应允他们的祷告。
7 Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine; yes, their children will see it, and rejoice. Their heart will be glad in YHWH.
以法莲人必如勇士; 他们心中畅快如同喝酒; 他们的儿女必看见而快活; 他们的心必因耶和华喜乐。
8 I will signal for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they will increase as they have increased.
我要发嘶声,聚集他们, 因我已经救赎他们。 他们的人数必加增, 如从前加增一样。
9 I will sow them among the peoples; and they will remember me in far countries; and they will live with their children, and will return.
我虽然播散他们在列国中, 他们必在远方记念我。 他们与儿女都必存活,且得归回。
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 there won't be room enough for them.
我必再领他们出埃及地, 招聚他们出亚述, 领他们到基列和黎巴嫩; 这地尚且不够他们居住。
11 He will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.
耶和华必经过苦海,击打海浪, 使尼罗河的深处都枯干。 亚述的骄傲必致卑微; 埃及的权柄必然灭没。
12 I will strengthen them in YHWH; and they will walk up and down in his name," says YHWH.
我必使他们倚靠我,得以坚固; 一举一动必奉我的名。 这是耶和华说的。
