Zechariah 10
1 Ask for rain from Yahweh in the season of the spring rain— Yahweh who makes thunderstorms— and he gives rain showers to everyone and vegetation in the field.
Tlankhol tue vaengah khotlan te BOEIPA taengah bih uh. BOEIPA loh rhaek a saii tih, khotlan khonal te diklai kah baelhing hlang taengah a paek.
2 For household idols speak falsely; the diviners envision a lie; they tell deceitful dreams and give empty comfort, so they wander like sheep and suffer because there is no shepherd.
Sithui khaw boethae la cal, Hlang aka bi khaw a honghi a hmuh. A poeyoek la mang a thui uh tih, a honghi la a hloep uh. Te dongah boiva bangla poeng uh. Aka dawn khaw tal tih phaep uh.
3 “My wrath burns against the shepherds; it is the male goats—the leaders—that I will punish. Yahweh of hosts will also attend to his flock, the house of Judah, and make them like his warhorse in battle!
Boiva aka dawn rhoek taengah khaw ka thintoek sai tih kikong rhoek te ka cawh ni. Caempuei BOEIPA loh a tuping neh Judah imkhui te a cawh ni. Te vaengah amih te caemtloek vaengkah a mueithennah marhang bangla a khueh ni.
4 From Judah will come the cornerstone; from him will come the tent peg; from him will come the war bow; from him will come every ruler together.
Amih lamloh bangkil lung, ciphuem, caemtloek lii neh laisuk boeih te rhenten thoeng ni.
5 They will be like warriors who trample their enemies into the mud of the streets in battle; they will make war, for Yahweh is with them, and they will shame those who ride warhorses.
Caemtloek vaengah vongvoel kah tangnong dongah aka suntlae hlangrhalh bangla om uh vetih a vathoh uh ni. BOEIPA he amih taengah om vetih, marhang dongkah aka ngol khaw yak uh ni.
6 I will strengthen the house of Judah and save the house of Joseph; for I will restore them and have mercy on them. They will be as though I had not cast them off, for I am Yahweh their God, and I will respond to them.
Judah imkhui te ka len sak ni. Joseph imkhui khaw ka khang vetih amih te ka mael puei ni. Amih te ka haidam dongah amih te ka hlahpham pawt bangla om uh ni. Kai Yahweh tah amih kah Pathen la ka om dongah amih te ka doo ni.
7 Then Ephraim will be like a warrior, and their hearts will rejoice as with wine; their children will see and rejoice. Their hearts will rejoice in me!
Ephraim te hlangrhalh bangla om vetih, a lungbuei te misur bangla a kohoe ni. A ca a hmuh vaengah a kohoe uh vetih, BOEIPA dongah a lungbuei omngaih ni.
8 I will whistle for them and gather them, for I will rescue them, and they will become as great as they previously were!
Amih ham kut ka ving vetih, amih ka coi ni. Amih te ka lat vetih ping rhoe ping uh ni.
9 I sowed them among the peoples, but they will remember me in distant countries, so they and their children will live and return.
Amih te pilnam taengah ka phul sitoe cakhaw, khohla bangsang ah kai m'poek uh ni. A ca rhoek neh hing uh vetih mael uh ni.
10 For I will restore them from the land of Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to the land of Gilead and Lebanon until there is no more room for them.
Amih Egypt kho lamloh ka mael puei vetih, Assyria lamloh ka coi ni. Te vaengah Gilead neh Lebanon kho la ka khuen ni. Tedae amih ham te cung mahpawh.
11 I will pass through the sea of their affliction; I will strike the waves of that sea and will dry up all the depths of the Nile. The majesty of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will go away from the Egyptians.
Citcai tuili ah kat vetih, tuitunli kah tuiphu te a boh ni. Sokko laedil boeih kak vetih, Assyria kah hoemdamnah khaw tla ni. Egypt kah caitueng khaw nong ni.
12 I will strengthen them in myself, and they will walk in my name—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
Amih tah BOEIPA dongah ka len sak vetih, a ming neh pongpa uh ni. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.
