Zechariah 10 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

For the [fn]household ^H8655 idols ^H8655 speak ^H1696 deception ^H205,

And the diviners ^H7080 see ^H2372 [fn]an illusion ^H8267

And tell ^H1696 deceitful ^H7723 dreams ^H2472;

They comfort ^H5162 in ^H1892 vain ^H1892.

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 the people [fn]wander ^H5265 like ^H3644 sheep ^H6629,

They are ^H6031 wretched ^H6031 because ^H3588 there ^H369 is ^H369 no ^H369 shepherd ^H7462.

“My anger ^H639 is kindled ^H2734 against ^H5921 the shepherds ^H7462,

And I will punish ^H6485 the [fn]male ^H6260 goats ^H6260;

For the LORD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 has visited ^H6485 His flock ^H5739, the house ^H1004 of Judah ^H3063,

And will make ^H7760 them like His majestic ^H1935 horse ^H5483 in battle ^H4421.

“From [fn]them will come ^H3318 the cornerstone ^H6438,

From [fn]them the tent ^H3489 peg ^H3489,

From [fn]them the bow ^H7198 of battle ^H4421,

From [fn]them every ^H3605 tyrant ^H5065, all of them together ^H3162.

“And they will be like warriors ^H1368,

Trampling ^H947 down ^H947 the enemy in the mud ^H2916 of the streets ^H2351 in battle ^H4421;

And they will fight ^H3898, because ^H3588 the LORD ^H3068 will be with them;

And the riders ^H7392 on horses ^H5483 will be put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954.

“And I will strengthen ^H1396 the house ^H1004 of Judah ^H3063,

And I will save ^H3467 the house ^H1004 of Joseph ^H3130,

And I will [fn]bring ^H7725 them back ^H7725,

Because ^H3588 I have had ^H7355 compassion ^H7355 on ^H7355 them;

And they will be as though ^H834 I had not rejected ^H2186 them,

For I am the LORD ^H3068 their God ^H430 and I will answer ^H6030 them.

“Ephraim ^H669 will be like a warrior ^H1368,

And their heart ^H3820 will be ^H8055 joyful ^H8055 as ^H3644 if ^H3644 from wine ^H3196;

Indeed, their children ^H1121 will see ^H7200 it and be ^H8055 joyful ^H8055,

[fn]Their heart ^H3820 will rejoice ^H1523 in the LORD ^H3068.

“I will whistle ^H8319 for them and gather ^H6908 them together,

For I have redeemed ^H6299 them;

And they will be ^H7235 as numerous ^H7235 as they [fn]were before.

“When I [fn]scatter ^H2232 them among the peoples ^H5971,

They will remember ^H2142 Me in distant ^H4801 countries ^H4801,

And they with their children ^H1121 will live ^H2421 and come ^H7725 back ^H7725.

“I will bring ^H7725 them back ^H7725 from the land ^H776 of Egypt ^H4714

And gather ^H6908 them from Assyria ^H804;

And I will bring ^H935 them into the land ^H776 of Gilead ^H1568 and Lebanon ^H3844

[fn]Until no ^H3808 room can be found ^H4672 for them.

“And they will pass ^H5674 through the sea ^H3220 of distress ^H6869

And He will strike ^H5221 the waves ^H1530 in the sea ^H3220,

So that all ^H3605 the depths ^H4688 of the Nile ^H2975 will dry ^H3001 up ^H3001;

And the pride ^H1347 of Assyria ^H804 will be brought ^H3381 down ^H3381,

And the scepter ^H7626 of Egypt ^H4714 will depart ^H5493.

“And I will strengthen ^H1396 them in the LORD ^H3068,

And in His name ^H8034 they will walk ^H1980,” declares ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068.
