زَكَريَّا 10

١ 1 اُطْلُبُوا مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْمَطَرَ فِي أَوَانِ ٱلْمَطَرِ ٱلْمُتَأَخِّرِ، فَيَصْنَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ بُرُوقًا وَيُعْطِيَهُمْ مَطَرَ ٱلْوَبْلِ. لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ عُشْبًا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ.

Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] the LORD that maketh lightnings; and he shall give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّ ٱلتَّرَافِيمَ قَدْ تَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْبَاطِلِ، وَٱلْعَرَّافُونَ رَأَوْا ٱلْكَذِبَ وَأَخْبَرُوا بِأَحْلَامِ كَذِبٍ. يُعَزُّونَ بِٱلْبَاطِلِ. لِذَلِكَ رَحَلُوا كَغَنَمٍ. ذَلُّوا إِذْ لَيْسَ رَاعٍ.

For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams, they comfort in vain: therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

٣ 3 «عَلَى ٱلرُّعَاةِ ٱشْتَعَلَ غَضَبِي فَعَاقَبْتُ ٱلْأَعْتِدَةَ، لِأَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ تَعَهَّدَ قَطِيعَهُ بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا، وَجَعَلَهُمْ كَفَرَسِ جَلَالِهِ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ.

Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and shall make them as his goodly horse in the battle.

٤ 4 مِنْهُ ٱلزَّاوِيَةُ. مِنْهُ ٱلْوَتَدُ. مِنْهُ قَوْسُ ٱلْقِتَالِ. مِنْهُ يَخْرُجُ كُلُّ ظَالِمٍ جَمِيعًا.

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

٥ 5 وَيَكُونُونَ كَٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ ٱلدَّائِسِينَ طِينَ ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ، وَيُحَارِبُونَ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَعَهُمْ، وَٱلرَّاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ يَخْزَوْنَ.

And they shall be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight, because the LORD is with them: and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

٦ 6 وَأُقَوِّي بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا، وَأُخَلِّصُ بَيْتَ يُوسُفَ وَأُرَجِّعُهُمْ، لِأَنِّي قَدْ رَحِمْتُهُمْ. وَيَكُونُونَ كَأَنِّي لَمْ أَرْفُضْهُمْ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ فَأُجِيبُهُمْ.

And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again, for I have mercy upon them; and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the LORD their God, and I will hear them.

٧ 7 وَيَكُونُ أَفْرَايِمُ كَجَبَّارٍ، وَيَفْرَحُ قَلْبُهُمْ كَأَنَّهُ بِٱلْخَمْرِ، وَيَنْظُرُ بَنُوهُمْ فَيَفْرَحُونَ وَيَبْتَهِجُ قَلْبُهُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ.

And [they of] Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yea, their children shall see it, and rejoice; their heart shall be glad in the LORD.

٨ 8 أَصْفِرُ لَهُمْ وَأَجْمَعُهُمْ لِأَنِّي قَدْ فَدَيْتُهُمْ، وَيَكْثُرُونَ كَمَا كَثُرُوا.

I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased.

٩ 9 وَأَزْرَعُهُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ فَيَذْكُرُونَنِي فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي ٱلْبَعِيدَةِ، وَيَحْيَوْنَ مَعَ بَنِيهِمْ وَيَرْجِعُونَ.

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

١٠ 10 وَأُرْجِعُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَأَجْمَعُهُمْ مِنْ أَشُّورَ، وَآتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ وَلُبْنَانَ، وَلَا يُوجَدُ لَهُمْ مَكَانٌ.

I will bring them again also 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.

١١ 11 وَيَعْبُرُ فِي بَحْرِ ٱلضِّيقِ، وَيَضْرِبُ ٱللُّجَجَ فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَتَجِفُّ كُلُّ أَعْمَاقِ ٱلنَّهْرِ، وَتُخْفَضُ كِبْرِيَاءُ أَشُّورَ، وَيَزُولُ قَضِيبُ مِصْرَ.

And he shall pass through the sea of affliction, and shall smite the waves 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.

١٢ 12 وَأُقَوِّيهِمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ، فَيَسْلُكُونَ بِٱسْمِهِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

And I will strengthen them in the LORD; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith the LORD.
