Zechariah 10

1Ask you⌃ of the Lord rain in season, the early and the latter: the Lord has given brightsigns, and will give them abundant rain, to every one grass in the field. 2For the speakers have uttered grievous things, and the divinershave seen false visions, and they have spoken false dreams, they have given vain comfort: thereforehave they fallen away like sheep, and been afflicted, because there was no healing. 3Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit the lambs; and the LordGod Almighty shall visit his flock, the house of Juda, and he shall make them as his goodly horse in war. 4And from him he looked, and from him he setthe battle in order, and from himcame the bow in anger,and from him shall come forth every oppressor together. 5And they shall be as warriors treading clay in the ways in war; and they shall set thebattle in array, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be put to shame. 6And I will strengthen the house of Juda, and save the house of Joseph, and I will settlethem; because I have loved them: and they shall be asif I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and I will hear them. 7And they shall be as the warriors of Ephraim, and their heart shall rejoice as with wine:and their children also shall seeit, and be glad; and their heart shall rejoice in the Lord. 8I will make a sign to them, and gather them in; for I will redeem them, and they shallbe multiplied according to their number before. 9And I will sow them among the people; and they that are afar off shall remember me: theyshall nourish their children, and they shall return. 10And I will bring them again from the land of Egypt, and I will gather them in from amongthe Assyrians; and I will bring them into the land of Galaad and to Libanus; and there shall not evenone of them be left behind. 11And they shall pass through a narrow sea, they shall strike the waves in the sea, andall the deep places of the rivers shall be dried up: and all the pride of the Assyrians shall be takenaway, and the sceptre of Egypt shall be removed. 12And I will strengthen them in the Lord their God; and they shall boast in his name, saysthe Lord.
