The Restoration for Judah and Israel

in the season of the spring rain,
from the LORD who makes the storm clouds,
and he will give them showers of rain,
to everyone the vegetation in the field.

from him the battle bow,
from him every ruler—all of them together.

trampling the foe in the mud of the streets;

and I will save the house of Joseph.

for I am the LORD their God and I will answer them.

and their hearts shall be glad as with wine.
Their children shall see it and be glad;
their hearts shall rejoice in the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxZec 10:8 - “I will whistle for them and gather them in,
for I have redeemed them,
and they shall be as many as they were before.

yet in far countries they shall remember me,
and with their children they shall live and return.

and gather them from Assyria,
and I will bring them to the land of Gilead and to Lebanon,
till there is no room for them.

and strike down the waves of the sea,
and all the depths of the Nile shall be dried up.
The pride of Assyria shall be laid low,
and the scepter of Egypt shall depart.
Unchecked Copy BoxZec 10:12 - I will make them strong in the LORD,
and they shall walk in his name,”
declares the LORD.
