Zachariæ 10

VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Petite a Domino pluviam in tempore serotino, et Dominus faciet nives : et pluviam imbris dabit eis, singulis herbam in agro.	1 Ask Yahweh for rain in autumn and at the time of the spring rains. Yahweh is the one to make thestorm-clouds. He wil give them showers of rain; to each, grass in his field.
2 Quia simulacra locuta sunt inutile, et divini viderunt mendacium : et somniatores locuti sunt frustra, vane consolabantur : idcirco abducti sunt quasi grex : affligentur, quia non est eis pastor.	2 Since the domestic idols have talked nonsense, and the diviners have seen false signs, and dreamshave purveyed delusions, affording empty comfort, that is why they have strayed like sheep, in distress for wantof a shepherd.
3 Super pastores iratus est furor meus, et super hircos visitabo : quia visitavit Dominus exercituum gregem suum, domum Juda, et posuit eos quasi equum gloriæ suæ in bello.	3 My anger has been roused by the shepherds, and I shal vent it on the he-goats. When YahwehSabaoth comes to visit his flock, the House of Judah, he wil make it his royal war-horse.
4 Ex ipso angulus, ex ipso paxillus, ex ipso arcus prælii, ex ipso egredietur omnis exactor simul.	4 From it wil emerge Cornerstone and Tent-peg, from it, Bow-ready-for-Battle, from it, every type ofleader. Together
5 Et erunt quasi fortes conculcantes lutum viarum in prælio, et bellabunt, quia Dominus cum eis : et confundentur ascensores equorum.	5 they wil be like warriors trampling the dirt of the streets in battle; when they fight, because Yahweh iswith them, they wil put mounted men to rout.
6 Et confortabo domum Juda, et domum Joseph salvabo : et convertam eos, quia miserebor eorum : et erunt sicut fuerunt quando non projeceram eos : ego enim Dominus Deus eorum, et exaudiam eos.	6 Then I shal make the House of Judah mighty and the House of Joseph victorious. I shal restore them,because I have taken pity on them, and they wil be as though I had never cast them off, for I am Yahweh theirGod and shal answer their prayer.
7 Et erunt quasi fortes Ephraim, et lætabitur cor eorum quasi a vino : et filii eorum videbunt, et lætabuntur, et exsultabit cor eorum in Domino.	7 Ephraim will be like a warrior. Their hearts will be cheered as though by wine. Their children wil seethis and rejoice, their hearts wil exult in Yahweh.
8 Sibilabo eis, et congregabo illos, quia redemi eos : et multiplicabo eos sicut ante fuerant multiplicati.	8 I shall whistle to them and gather them in, for I have redeemed them; they will be as numerous as theyused to be.
9 Et seminabo eos in populis, et de longe recordabuntur mei : et vivent cum filiis suis, et revertentur.	9 I shall scatter them among the peoples but in distant countries they will remember me, they wil instructtheir children and then return.
10 Et reducam eos de terra Ægypti, et de Assyriis congregabo eos, et ad terram Galaad et Libani adducam eos, et non invenietur eis locus :	10 I shal bring them home from Egypt and gather them back from Assyria; I shal lead them into Gileadand the Lebanon, and even that wil not be large enough for them.
11 et transibit in maris freto, et percutiet in mari fluctus, et confundentur omnia profunda fluminis : et humiliabitur superbia Assur, et sceptrum Ægypti recedet.	11 They wil cross the sea of Egypt (and the waves of the sea wil be struck); al the depths of the Riverwil be dried up. The arrogance of Assyria wil be cast down and the sceptre of Egypt taken away.
12 Confortabo eos in Domino, et in nomine ejus ambulabunt, dicit Dominus.	12 I shal make them mighty in Yahweh, and they wil march in my name -- Yahweh declares.
