Zechariah 10
1 Ask from Yahweh rain at [the] time of spring rain Yahweh [is] making thunder-clouds and rain of rain he gives to them to everyone vegetation in the field.
HERREN skal I bede om Regn ved Tidlig- og Sildigregnstide; HERREN skaber Uvejr; Regnskyl giver han dem, hver Mand Urter på Marken.
2 For the teraphim they speak wickedness and the diviners they see falsehood and [the] dreams of worthlessness they speak futility they comfort! there-fore they have set out like sheep they are afflicted for there not [is] a shepherd.
Men Husgudens Tale er Svig, Sandsigeres Syner er Blændværk: de kommer med tomme Drømme, hul er Trøsten, de giver; derfor vandrer de om som en Hjord, lider Nød, thi de har ingen Hyrde.
3 Towards the shepherds it has burned anger my and on the leaders I will visit [judgment] for he visits Yahweh of hosts flock his [the] house of Judah and he will make them like [the] horse of majesty his in battle.
Mod Hyrdeme blusser min Vrede, Bukkene vil jeg bjemsøge; thi Hærskarers HERRE ser til sin Hjord. Han ser til Judas Hus; han gør dem til en Ganger, sin stolte Ganger i Strid.
4 From it a corner from it a peg from it a bow of war from it he will come forth every ruler together.
Fra ham kommer Hjørne og Teltpæl, fra ham kommer Krigens Bue, fra ham kommer hver en Hersker.
5 And they will be like warriors treading down in [the] mud of [the] streets in battle and they will fight for Yahweh [will be] with them and they will put to shame riders of horses.
De bliver til Hobe som Helte, der i Striden tramper i Gadens Dynd; de kæmper, thi HERREN er med dem. Rytterne bliver til Skamme;
6 And I will make strong - [the] house of Judah and [the] house of Joseph I will save and I will restore them for I have compassion on them and they will be just as not I had rejected them for I [am] Yahweh God their and I will answer them.
jeg styrker Judas Hus og frelser Josefs Hus. Jeg ynkes og fører dem hjem, som havde jeg aldrig forstødt dem: thi jeg er HERREN deres Gud og bønhører dem.
7 And they will be like a warrior Ephraim and it will be glad heart their like wine and children their they will see and they will be glad it may rejoice heart their in Yahweh.
Efraim bliver som en Helt, deres Hjerte glædes som af Vin, deres Sønner glædes ved Synet. Deres Hjerte frydes i HERREN;
8 I will whistle for them and I will gather them for I have redeemed them and they will multiply as they multiplied.
jeg fløjter ad dem og samler dem; thi jeg udløser dem, og de bliver mange som fordum.
9 And I will sow them among the peoples and in the distant places they will remember me and they will live with children their and they will return.
Blandt Folkeslag strøede jeg dem ud, men de kommer mig i Hu i det fjerne og opfostrer Børn til Hjemfærd.
10 And I will bring back them from [the] land of Egypt and from Assyria I will gather them and to [the] land of Gilead and Lebanon I will bring them and not it will be found for them.
Jeg fører dem hjem fra Ægypten, fra Assur samler jeg dem og bringer dem til Gilead og Libanon, som ikke skal være dem nok.
11 And he will pass in the sea trouble and he will strike in the sea waves and they will dry up all [the] depths of [the] River and it will be brought down [the] pride of Assyria and [the] scepter of Egypt it will depart.
De går gennem Trængselshavet, han slår dets Bølger ned. Alle Nilstrømme tørkner, Assurs Stolthed styrtes, Ægyptens Herskerspir viger.
12 And I will make strong them by Yahweh and in name his they will go about [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Jeg gør dem stærke i HERREN, de vandrer i hans Navn, så lyder det fra HERREN.
