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 of the LORD rain in the spring time, the LORD who makes storm clouds, and he gives rain showers to everyone for the plants 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 the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they go their way like sheep. They are oppressed, 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 anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the male goats, for the LORD of Armies has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his majestic horse in the battle.
4 Od njega je ugao, od njega kolje, od njega luk ubojiti, od njega izlazi i svaki nastojnik.
From him will come the cornerstone, from him the tent peg, from him the battle bow, from him 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 as mighty men, treading down muddy streets in the battle. They will fight, because the LORD is with them. The riders on horses will be confounded.
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 I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back, for I have mercy on them. They will be as though I had not cast them off, for I am the LORD their God, and I will hear 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.
Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine. Yes, their children will see it and rejoice. Their heart will be glad in the LORD.
8 Zazviždaæu im i sabraæu ih, jer æu ih izbaviti, i oni æe se umnožiti kao što su se bili umnožili.
I will signal for them and gather them, for I have redeemed them. They will increase as they were before.
9 I rasijaæu ih meðu narode da se u daljnijem mjestima opominju mene, i živeæi sa sinovima svojima da se vrate.
I will sow them amongst the peoples. They will remember me in far countries. They will live with their children and will 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.
I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria. I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and there won’t be room enough 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.
He will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt will depart.
12 I ukrijepiæu ih Gospodom, i oni æe hoditi u ime njegovo, govori Gospod.
I will strengthen them in the LORD. They will walk up and down in his name,” says the LORD.
