Zechariah 10 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Zec 10:2Because the teraphim did speak iniquity, And the diviners have seen a falsehood, And dreams of the vanity they speak, With vanity they give comfort, Therefore they have journeyed as a flock, They are afflicted, for there is no shepherd.
Zec 10:3Against the shepherds did Mine anger burn, And against the he-goats I lay a charge, For inspected hath Jehovah of Hosts His flock, the house of Judah, And set them as His beauteous horse in battle.
Zec 10:4From him is a corner-stone, From him a nail, from him a battle-bow, From him goeth forth every exactor together.

Zec 10:6And I have made mighty the house of Judah, And the house of Joseph I do save, And I have caused them to dwell, for I have loved them, And they have been as if I had not cast them off, For I am Jehovah their God, And I answer them.
Zec 10:7And Ephraim hath been as a hero, And rejoiced hath their heart as wine, And their sons see, and they have rejoiced, Rejoice doth their heart in Jehovah.
Zec 10:8I hist for them, and I gather them, For I have redeemed them, And they have multiplied as they did multiply.
Zec 10:9And I sow them among peoples, And in far-off places they remember Me, And they have lived with their sons, And they have turned back.
Zec 10:10And I have brought them back from the land of Egypt, And from Asshur I do gather them, And unto the land of Gilead and Lebanon I do bring them in, And there is not found for them space.
Zec 10:11And He hath passed over through the sea, And hath pressed and smitten billows in the sea, And dried up have been all depths of a flood, And brought down hath been the excellency of Asshur, And the rod of Egypt doth turn aside.
Zec 10:12And I have made them mighty in Jehovah, And in His name they walk up and down, An affirmation of Jehovah!
