Zaharija 10
1 Ištite od Gospoda dažda u vrijeme poznoga dažda, Gospod æe pustiti munje, i daæe vam izobila dažda i svakome trave u polju.
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.
2 Jer likovi govore ništavilo i vraèi vide laž i govore zaludne sne, tješe taštinom; zato otidoše kao stado, i ojadiše se, jer ne bješe pastira.
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.
3 Gnjev se moj raspali na pastire, i pokarah jarce; jer Gospod nad vojskama obide stado svoje, dom Judin, i uèini da su mu kao konj okiæen za boj.
“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!
4 Od njega je ugao, od njega kolje, od njega luk ubojiti, od njega izlazi i svaki nastojnik.
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.
5 I oni æe biti kao junaci, gaziæe u boju kao blato po ulicama, i biæe se, jer je Gospod s njima, i koji jašu na konjma osramotiæe se.
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.
6 I ukrijepiæu dom Judin, i dom æu Josifov spasti, i dovešæu ih natrag, jer mi ih je žao, i biæe kao da ih nijesam odbacio, jer sam ja Gospod Bog njihov i uslišiæu ih.
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.
7 I oni od Jefrema biæe kao junak, i srce æe im biti veselo kao od vina, i sinovi njihovi vidjeæe i veseliæe se, i srce æe im se radovati o Gospodu.
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!
8 Zazviždaæu im i sabraæu ih, jer æu ih izbaviti, i oni æe se umnožiti kao što su se bili umnožili.
I will whistle for them and gather them, for I will rescue them, and they will become as great as they previously were!
9 I rasijaæu ih meðu narode da se u daljnijem mjestima opominju mene, i živeæi sa sinovima svojima da se vrate.
I sowed them among the peoples, but they will remember me in distant countries, so they and their children will live and return.
10 I dovešæu ih natrag iz zemlje Misirske, i sabraæu ih iz Asirske, i dovešæu ih u zemlju Galadsku i na Livan; i neæe im biti dosta mjesta.
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.
11 I od tjeskobe æe prijeæi preko mora, i razbiæe vale u moru, i sve æe dubine rijeci presahnuti, i oboriæe se ponos Asirski i palica æe se Misirska uzeti.
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.
12 I ukrijepiæu ih Gospodom, i oni æe hoditi u ime njegovo, govori Gospod.
I will strengthen them in myself, and they will walk in my name—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
