Zechariah 10:1-3
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh Will Redeem Judah and Israel
10 Ask (A)rain from Yahweh at the time of the [a]late rain—
Yahweh who (B)makes the [b]storm clouds;
And He will give them (C)showers of rain, the plant in the field to each man.
2 For the (D)teraphim speak wickedness,
And the (E)diviners behold [c]false visions
And speak (F)worthless dreams;
They comfort in vain.
Therefore the people journey like (G)sheep;
They are afflicted because there is no shepherd.
3 “My (H)anger burns against the shepherds,
And I will visit punishment upon the [d]male goats;
For Yahweh of hosts has (I)visited His flock, the house of Judah,
And will make them like His splendid horse in battle.

New American Standard Bible 1995
God Will Bless Judah and Ephraim
10 Ask (A)rain from the Lord at the time of the spring rain—
The Lord who (B)makes the [a]storm clouds;
And He will give them (C)showers of rain, vegetation in the field to each man.
2 For the (D)teraphim speak [b]iniquity,
And the (E)diviners see [c]lying visions
And tell (F)false dreams;
They comfort in vain.
Therefore the people [d]wander like (G)sheep,
They are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.
3 “My (H)anger is kindled against the shepherds,
And I will punish the [e]male goats;
For the Lord of hosts has (I)visited His flock, the house of Judah,
And will make them like His majestic horse in battle.
