10 Ask ye of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain, even of Jehovah that maketh lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field. For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and [a]they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd. Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle. From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every [b]ruler together. And they shall be as mighty men, treading down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because Jehovah is with them; and the riders on horses shall be confounded. And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will [c]bring them back; for I have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Jehovah their God, and I will hear them. And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine; yea, their children shall see it, and rejoice; their heart shall be glad in Jehovah.

I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they shall increase as they have increased. [d]And I will sow them among the peoples; and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and shall return. 10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and place shall not be found for them. 11 And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will smite [e]the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up; and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart. 12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Jehovah.

Restoration of Judah and Israel

10 Ask (A)the Lord for (B)rain
In (C)the time of the [a]latter rain.
The Lord will make [b]flashing clouds;
He will give them showers of rain,
Grass in the field for everyone.

For the (D)idols[c] speak delusion;
The diviners envision (E)lies,
And tell false dreams;
They (F)comfort in vain.
Therefore the people wend their way like (G)sheep;
They are [d]in trouble (H)because there is no shepherd.

“My anger is kindled against the (I)shepherds,
(J)And I will punish the [e]goatherds.
For the Lord of hosts (K)will visit His flock,
The house of Judah,
And (L)will make them as His royal horse in the battle.
From him comes (M)the cornerstone,
From him (N)the tent peg,
From him the battle bow,
From him every [f]ruler together.
They shall be like mighty men,
Who (O)tread down their enemies
In the mire of the streets in the battle.
They shall fight because the Lord is with them,
And the riders on horses shall be put to shame.

“I will strengthen the house of Judah,
And I will save the house of Joseph.
(P)I will bring them back,
Because I (Q)have mercy on them.
They shall be as though I had not cast them aside;
For I am the Lord their God,
And I (R)will hear them.
Those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man,
And their (S)heart shall rejoice as if with wine.
Yes, their children shall see it and be glad;
Their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
I will (T)whistle for them and gather them,
For I will redeem them;
(U)And they shall increase as they once increased.

“I(V) will [g]sow them among the peoples,
And they shall (W)remember Me in far countries;
They shall live, together with their children,
And they shall return.
10 (X)I will also bring them back from the land of Egypt,
And gather them from Assyria.
I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon,
(Y)Until no more room is found for them.
11 (Z)He shall pass through the sea with affliction,
And strike the waves of the sea:
All the depths of [h]the River shall dry up.
Then (AA)the pride of Assyria shall be brought down,
And (AB)the scepter of Egypt shall depart.

12 “So I will strengthen them in the Lord,
And (AC)they shall walk up and down in His name,”
Says the Lord.

The Restoration of Judah and Israel

10 Ask for rain from the Lord
    during the season of the latter spring rains.
And the Lord will make the storm winds;
    and He will give them showers of rain;
    all will have vegetation in the field.
For the household Teraphim idols speak wickedness,
    and the diviners envision lies.
They utter false dreams,
    and provide comfort that does not last.
So the people wander about like sheep;
    they are afflicted because there is no shepherd.

My anger burns against the shepherds,
    and I will visit judgment on the male goats.
For the Lord of Hosts will visit His flock, the house of Judah,
    and will make them like His majestic horse in battle.
From him comes the cornerstone,
    and from him the tent peg.
From him comes the bow for battle,
    and from him every ruler goes out, all these together.
And they will be as mighty men,
    who trample down in the muddy streets in battle.
They will fight because the Lord is with them,
    and He will put to shame those riding on horses.

I will make strong the house of Judah,
    and will deliver the house of Joseph.
I will restore them
    because I have compassion on them.
They will be like
    I had never rejected them;
for I am the Lord their God,
    and I will respond to them.
Then Ephraim shall be like a mighty man,
    and their hearts shall rejoice as with wine.
Their children shall see this and be glad;
    their hearts shall rejoice in the Lord.
I will whistle to them
    and gather them in,
for I have ransomed them;
    they will be numerous as they were numerous before.
When I scatter them among the nations,
    they will remember Me in the distant lands;
they will live with their children
    and then return.
10 I will bring them home from the land of Egypt,
    and gather them from Assyria.
I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon,
    until there is no room for them.
11 He will pass through the sea of distress,
    and will put down the waves in the sea:
    All the depths of the Nile will be dried up;
and the arrogance of Assyria will be brought down,
    and the scepter of Egypt will turn away.
12 I will make them strong in the Lord,
    and they will go to and fro in His name,
    says the Lord.

Jehová redimirá a su pueblo

10 Pedid a Jehová lluvia en la estación tardía. Jehová hará relámpagos, y os dará lluvia abundante, y hierba verde en el campo a cada uno. Porque los terafines han dado vanos oráculos, y los adivinos han visto mentira, han hablado sueños vanos, y vano es su consuelo; por lo cual el pueblo vaga como ovejas, y sufre porque no tiene pastor.(A)

Contra los pastores se ha encendido mi enojo, y castigaré a los jefes; pero Jehová de los ejércitos visitará su rebaño, la casa de Judá, y los pondrá como su caballo de honor en la guerra. De él saldrá la piedra angular, de él la clavija, de él el arco de guerra, de él también todo apremiador. Y serán como valientes que en la batalla huellan al enemigo en el lodo de las calles; y pelearán, porque Jehová estará con ellos; y los que cabalgan en caballos serán avergonzados.

Porque yo fortaleceré la casa de Judá, y guardaré la casa de José, y los haré volver; porque de ellos tendré piedad, y serán como si no los hubiera desechado; porque yo soy Jehová su Dios, y los oiré. Y será Efraín como valiente, y se alegrará su corazón como a causa del vino; sus hijos también verán, y se alegrarán; su corazón se gozará en Jehová.

Yo los llamaré con un silbido, y los reuniré, porque los he redimido; y serán multiplicados tanto como fueron antes. Bien que los esparciré entre los pueblos, aun en lejanos países se acordarán de mí; y vivirán con sus hijos, y volverán. 10 Porque yo los traeré de la tierra de Egipto, y los recogeré de Asiria; y los traeré a la tierra de Galaad y del Líbano, y no les bastará. 11 Y la tribulación pasará por el mar, y herirá en el mar las ondas, y se secarán todas las profundidades del río; y la soberbia de Asiria será derribada, y se perderá el cetro de Egipto. 12 Y yo los fortaleceré en Jehová, y caminarán en su nombre, dice Jehová.

10 Ask ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain;
so the Lord shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain,
to every one grass in the field.
For the idols have spoken vanity,
and the diviners have seen a lie,
and have told false dreams;
they comfort in vain:
therefore they went their way as a flock,
they were troubled, because there was no shepherd.

Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds,
and I punished the goats:
for the Lord of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah,
and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.
Out of him came forth the corner,
out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow,
out of him every oppressor together.
And they shall be as mighty men,
which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle:
and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them,
and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

And I will strengthen the house of Judah,
and I will save the house of Joseph,
and I will bring them again to place them;
for I have mercy upon them:
and they shall be as though I had not cast them off:
for I am the Lord their God, and will hear them.
And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man,
and their heart shall rejoice as through wine:
yea, their children shall see it, and be glad;
their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
I will hiss for them, and gather them;
for I have redeemed them:
and they shall increase as they have increased.
And I will sow them among the people:
and they shall remember me in far countries;
and they shall live with their children, and turn again.
10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt,
and gather them out of Assyria;
and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon;
and place shall not be found for them.
11 And he shall pass through the sea with affliction,
and shall smite the waves in the sea,
and all the deeps of the river shall dry up:
and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down,
and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.
12 And I will strengthen them in the Lord;
and they shall walk up and down in his name,
saith the Lord.
