Zechariah 10:4-12
English Standard Version
4 From him shall come (A)the cornerstone,
from him (B)the tent peg,
from him the battle bow,
from him every ruler—(C)all of them together.
5 They shall be like mighty men in battle,
(D)trampling the foe in the mud of the streets;
they shall fight because the Lord is with them,
and they shall put to shame (E)the riders on horses.
6 (F)“I will strengthen the house of Judah,
and (G)I will save the house of Joseph.
(H)I will bring them back (I)because I have compassion on them,
and they shall be as though I had not rejected them,
for (J)I am the Lord their God and I will answer them.
7 Then Ephraim shall become like a mighty warrior,
and (K)their hearts shall be glad as with wine.
Their children shall see it and be glad;
their hearts shall rejoice in the Lord.
8 (L)“I will whistle for them and (M)gather them in,
for I have redeemed them,
and (N)they shall be as many as they were before.
9 (O)Though I scattered them among the nations,
yet in far countries (P)they shall remember me,
and with their children they shall live and return.
10 (Q)I will bring them home from the land of Egypt,
and gather them from Assyria,
and (R)I will bring them to the land of Gilead and to Lebanon,
(S)till there is no room for them.
11 (T)He shall pass through the sea of troubles
and strike down the waves of the sea,
(U)and all the depths of the Nile shall be dried up.
The pride of Assyria shall be laid low,
and (V)the scepter of Egypt shall depart.
12 (W)I will make them strong in the Lord,
and (X)they shall walk in his name,”
declares the Lord.
