Zaccaria 10

NOVA VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Petite a Domino pluviam in tempore pluviae serotinae. Dominus facit fulgura et pluviam imbris dabit eis, singulis herbam in agro.	1 Ask of the LORD rain in the spring season! It is the LORD who makes storm clouds. And sends men the pouring rain; for everyone, grassy fields.
2 Quia theraphim loquuntur inania, et divini vident mendacium, et somnia loquuntur vana, vane consolantur; idcirco migrant quasi grex, affliguntur, quia non est eis pastor.	2 For the teraphim speak nonsense, the diviners have false visions: Deceitful dreams they tell, empty comfort they offer. This is why they wander like sheep, wretched: they have no shepherd.
3 Super pastores iratus est furor meus, et super hircos visitabo: certe visitat Dominus exercituum gregem suum, domum Iudae, et faciet eos quasi equum gloriae suae in bello.	3 My wrath is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders; For the LORD of hosts will visit his flock, the house of Judah, and make them his stately war horse.
4 Ex ipso angulus, ex ipso paxillus, ex ipso arcus proelii, ex ipso egredietur omnis exactor simul.	4 From him shall come leader and chief, from him warrior's bow and every officer.
5 Et erunt quasi fortes conculcantes lutum viarum in proelio et bellabunt, quia Dominus cum eis; et confundentur ascensores equorum.	5 They shall all be warriors, trampling the mire of the streets in battle; They shall wage war because the LORD is with them, and shall put the horsemen to rout.
6 Et confortabo domum Iudae et domum Ioseph salvabo et reducam eos, quia miserebor eorum; et erunt, sicut non proiecissem eos: ego enim Dominus Deus eorum et exaudiam eos.	6 I will strengthen the house of Judah, the house of Joseph I will save; I will bring them back, because I have mercy on them, they shall be as though I had never cast them off, for I am the LORD, their God, and I will hear them.
7 Et erunt quasi fortes Ephraim, et laetabitur cor eorum quasi a vino, et filii eorum videbunt et laetabuntur, et exsultabit cor eorum in Domino.	7 Then Ephraim shall be valiant men, and their hearts shall be cheered as by wine. Their children shall see it and be glad, their hearts shall rejoice in the LORD.
8 Sibilabo eis et congregabo illos, quia redemi eos, et multi erunt, sicut multi ante fuerant.	8 I will whistle for them to come together, and when I redeem them they will be as numerous as before.
9 Et seminabo eos in populis, et de longe recordabuntur mei; et alent filios suos et revertentur.	9 I sowed them among the nations, yet in distant lands they remember me; they shall rear their children and return.
10 Et reducam eos de terra Aegypti et de Assyria congregabo eos et ad terram Galaad et Libani adducam eos, et non invenietur eis locus.	10 I will bring them back from the land of Egypt, and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them into Gilead and into Lebanon, but these shall not suffice them;
11 Et transibunt per mare angustiae, et percutiet in mari fluctus, et exiccabuntur omnia profunda fluminis; et humiliabitur superbia Assyriae, et sceptrum Aegypti recedet.	11 I will cross over to Egypt and smite the waves of the sea and all the depths of the Nile shall be dried up. The pride of Assyria shall be cast down, and the scepter of Egypt taken away.
12 Confortabo eos in Domino, et in nomine eius ambulabunt ”, dicit Dominus.	12 I will strengthen them in the LORD, and they shall walk in his name, says the LORD.
