  2. Zechariah 10:1 Or lightning flashes

“I also withheld rain from you,
When there were still three months to the harvest.

And where it did not rain the part withered.
So two or three cities wandered to another city to drink water,
But they were not satisfied;
Yet you have not returned to Me,”
Says the Lord.
