Zechariah 10
1 Ask ye from Yahweh rain, in the time of the latter rain, Yahweh, who causeth flashes of lightning, —and, rain in abundant showers, giveth he unto them, to every man, herbage in the field;
到春雨的時節，你們應向上主求雨，上主必興起雷電，降下傾盆大雨，賜人食糧，使田間生出青草，
2 For, the household gods, have spoken vanity, and, the diviners, have had vision of falsehood, and, deceitful dreams, do they relate, vainly, do they console, —for this reason, have they moved about like a flock, they suffer ill, because there is no shepherd.
因為「忒辣芬」所講的只是謊言，占卜者所見的只是虛幻，所報告的只是幻夢，只會以空言安慰人；為此，民眾流離失所，有如沒有牧人的羊群。
3 Against the shepherds, is kindled mine anger, and, upon the leaders of the flock, will I bring punishment, —for Yahweh of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them like his noble horse in battle:
我的怒火必要向牧人發作，我必要懲罰公山羊，因為萬軍的上主將要看顧自己的羊群──猶大家，使他們有如自己戰埸上的駿馬。
4 From him, the commander, from him, the supporter, from him, the war-bow, —from him, shall proceed every one that driveth on, together;
角石是出於衪，幕樁是出於衪，戰弓是出於衪，而且所有的首領也是出於衪。
5 So shall they become like mighty ones, trampling on the mire of lanes, in battle, and they will fight because, Yahweh, is with them, —and will abash the riders of horses.
他們全如勇士，在戰埸上踐踏敵人，有如踐踏街上的泥濘；他們必要得勝，因為上主與他們同在；騎馬的人反要慚愧!
6 So will I make mighty ones of the house of Judah, and, the house of Joseph, will I save, and will cause them to continue, because I have had compassion upon them, So shall they be as though I had not rejected them, —for, I, Yahweh, will be their God, and will answer them;
我要使猶大家強健盛，使若瑟家勝利；我要使他們復興，因為我憐憫了他們，他們必好像我從未放逐過他們一樣：因為我是上主他們的天主，我必要應允他們。
7 And they shall be as the mighty one of Ephraim, and their heart, shall rejoice, as through wine, —yea, their children, shall see and rejoice, their heart, shall exult, in Yahweh.
厄弗辣因人要如勇士，他們的心必像飲了那樣喜樂；他們的子孫見了也要喜樂，他們的心必歡樂於上主。
8 I will signal for them, and will gather them, because I have ransomed them, —and they shall multiply, according as they have multiplied;
我要向他們吹哨，聚集他們，因為我解救了他們；他們的人數眾多，必如昔日一樣。
9 Though I scatter them among the peoples, yet, in places far away, shall they remember me, —and they shall live with their children, and shall return;
我雖曾將他們分散到各異民中，但他們在遠方仍懷念著我，養大自己的兒子，然後歸來。
10 And I will bring them back out of the land of Egypt, and, out of Assyria, will I gather them, —and, into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, will I bring them, and [room] shall not be found for them:
我要從埃及地領他們出來，由亞述聚集他們，領他們到基肋阿得地和黎巴嫩，但此地仍然為他們不夠。
11 Though he pass through a sea of affliction, yet shall he smite the sea, with its waves, and the roaring depths of the Nile, shall appear dry, —So shall be brought down the pride of Assyria, and, the sceptre of Egypt, shall depart;
他們要渡過埃及海，擊打海中的波浪，使河底乾涸；亞述的高傲必要受挫，埃及的權杖必被奪去。
12 And I will make them mighty in Yahweh, and, in his name, shall they march to and fro, —Declareth Yahweh.
他們的力量全在於上主，他們必以衪的名號為自己的光榮。
