< Zechariah 10 >
1 They asked of Jehovah rain in a time of latter rain, Jehovah is making lightnings, And rain [in] showers He doth give to them. To each — the herb in the field.
Demandád a Jehová lluvia en la sazón tardía, y Jehová hará relámpagos, y daros ha lluvia de agua, y yerba en el campo a cada uno.
2 Because the teraphim did speak iniquity, And the diviners have seen a falsehood, And dreams of the vanity they speak, [With] vanity they give comfort, Therefore they have journeyed as a flock, They are afflicted, for there is no shepherd.
Porque las imágenes han hablado vanidad, y los adivinos han visto mentira, y han hablado sueños vanos, en vano consuelan: por lo cual ellos se fueron como ovejas, fueron humillados porque no tuvieron pastor.
3 Against the shepherds did Mine anger burn, And against the he-goats I lay a charge, For inspected hath Jehovah of Hosts His flock, the house of Judah, And set them as His beauteous horse in battle.
Contra los pastores se ha encendido mi enojo, y yo visitaré los machos cabríos; porque Jehová de los ejércitos visitará su rebaño, la casa de Judá, y tornarlos ha como su caballo de honor en la guerra.
4 From him [is] a corner-stone, From him a nail, from him a battle-bow, From him goeth forth every exactor together.
De él hará rincón, de él estaca, de él arco de guerra, de él saldrá también todo angustiador.
5 And they have been as heroes, Treading in mire of out-places in battle, And they have fought, for Jehovah [is] with them, And have put to shame riders of horses.
Y serán como valientes, que pisan el lodo de las calles, en la batalla; y pelearán, porque Jehová será con ellos; y los que cabalgan en caballos serán avergonzados.
6 And I have made mighty the house of Judah, And the house of Joseph I do save, And I have caused them to dwell, for I have loved them, And they have been as [if] I had not cast them off, For I [am] Jehovah their God, And I answer them.
Porque yo fortificaré la casa de Judá, y guardaré la casa de José, y tornarlos he, porque tuve piedad de ellos; y serán, como si no los hubiera desechado; porque yo soy Jehová su Dios que los oiré.
7 And Ephraim hath been as a hero, And rejoiced hath their heart as wine, And their sons see, and they have rejoiced, Rejoice doth their heart in Jehovah.
Y será Efraím como valiente, y alegrarse ha su corazón como de vino: sus hijos también verán, y se alegrarán: su corazón se gozará en Jehová.
8 I hist for them, and I gather them, For I have redeemed them, And they have multiplied as they did multiply.
Yo les silbaré, y los juntaré, porque yo los he redimido; y serán multiplicados, como fueron multiplicados.
9 And I sow them among peoples, And in far-off places they remember Me, And they have lived with their sons, And they have turned back.
Y sembrarlos he entre los pueblos, y en las regiones remotas se hará mención de mí; y vivirán con sus hijos, y tornarán.
10 And I have brought them back from the land of Egypt, And from Asshur I do gather them, And unto the land of Gilead and Lebanon I do bring them in, And there is not found for them [space].
Porque yo los tornaré de la tierra de Egipto, y de la Asiria los congregaré; y traerlos he a la tierra de Galaad y del Líbano, ni aun les bastará.
11 And He hath passed over through the sea, And hath pressed and smitten billows in the sea, And dried up have been all depths of a flood, And brought down hath been the excellency of Asshur, And the rod of Egypt doth turn aside.
Y la tribulación se pasará a la mar, y en la mar herirá a las ondas, y todas las honduras del río se secarán; y la soberbia del Asur será derribada, y el cetro de Egipto se perderá.
12 And I have made them mighty in Jehovah, And in His name they walk up and down, An affirmation of Jehovah!
Y fortificarlos he en Jehová, y en su nombre caminarán, dice Jehová.
