1890 Darby's Translation of the Holy Scriptures (DBY)

Zechariah 10

1 God is to be sought unto, and not idols. 5 As he visited his flock for sin, so he will save and restore them.

 10:1 ¶ Ask of Jehovah rain in the time of the latter rain; Jehovah will make lightnings, and he will give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

 10:2 For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams: they comfort in vain. Therefore they have gone away as a flock, they are in distress, because there is no shepherd.

 10:3 Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Jehovah of hosts visiteth his flock, the house of Judah, and maketh them as his majestic horse in the battle.

 10:4 From him shall come forth the corner-stone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every exactor together.

 10:5 ¶ And they shall be as mighty men, treading down the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, for Jehovah is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame.

 10:6 And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back again; for I will 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 answer them.

 10:7 And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their hearts shall rejoice as through wine; and their children shall see [it], and rejoice; their heart shall be joyful in Jehovah.

 10:8 I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall multiply as they used to multiply.

 10:9 And I will sow them among the peoples, and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children and return.

 10:10 And I will bring them again 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.

 10:11 And he shall pass through the sea of affliction, and shall smite the billows 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 away.

 10:12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk in his name, saith Jehovah.
