< 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.
Kwauru Jehova Nyasaye mondo omiu koth kinde komo; nikech Jehova Nyasaye ema miyo polo dudo. En ema ochiwo koth mondo ochwe ni ji kod yiende mag bungu.
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.
Nyiseche ma dhano oloso wuondo ji, jokor wach neno fweny mag miriambo; ka ginyiso ji lek ma ok adier, kendo gichiwo hoch manono. Mano emomiyo ji bayo abaya ka rombe maonge jakwath.
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!
“Mirimba lich kuom jokwath, kendo abiro kumo jotelo; nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego biro rito kwethne, ma gin jo-Juda, kendo enomi gichal faras mar lweny ma giro.
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.
Juda ema kidi mar gero kor ot kod sigingi migurogo hema nowuogie. Kuome ema atungʼ mar lweny, kod jotelo duto nowuogie.
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.
Ka giriwore kaachiel, ginichal gi jolweny maroteke manyono wasigu e yore motimo chwodho sa lweny. Nikech Jehova Nyasaye ni kodgi, gibiro gore mi gilo jo-farese.
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.
“Abiro miyo od Juda bedo gi teko kendo reso joka Josef. Abiro dwogogi ira nikech asekechogi. Abiro dwoko kwayogi mi gichal joma ne pok akwedo, nimar an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi, nikech awinjo kwayogi.
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!
Jo-Efraim biro doko joma roteke kendo chunygi biro bedo mamor mana ka joma omadho divai. Nyithindgi biro neno gino mi gibed mamor; chunygi biro bedo mamor kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
8 I will whistle for them and gather them, for I will rescue them, and they will become as great as they previously were!
Abiro timonegi ranyisi kaluongogi mi achokgi. Adier, abiro resogi; mi gidog joma thoth mana kaka ne gin chon.
9 I sowed them among the peoples, but they will remember me in distant countries, so they and their children will live and return.
Kata obedo ni asekeyogi e dier ogendini, to gibiro para ka gin e pinje maboyogo. Gin kaachiel gi nyithindgi gibiro bedo mangima, kendo gibiro duogo.
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.
Abiro gologi Misri mi aduog-gi kendo abiro chokogi ka agologi Asuria. Abiro kelogi Gilead kod Lebanon, kendo ginibed mathoth mohingo kama omigi.
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.
Gibiro kalo nam chandruok; nam madhwolore ibiro pie, kendo kude duto mag aora Nael biro dwono. Sunga mar Asuria ibiro dwok piny kendo kondo mar Misri biro lal.
12 I will strengthen them in myself, and they will walk in my name—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
Abiro miyo gibedo motegno kuom Jehova Nyasaye, kendo kuom nyinge giniwuoth gichir,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
