Zechariah 10
1Ask ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain; 1 So the Lord shall make bright clouds, 1 And give them showers of rain, 1 To every one grass in the field. 1
2For the idols have spoken vanity, 1 And the diviners have seen a lie, 1 And have told false dreams; 1 They comfort in vain: 1 Therefore they went their way as a flock, 1 They were troubled, because there was no shepherd. 1
3Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, 1 And I punished the goats: 1 For the Lord of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, 1 And hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle. 1
4Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, 1 Out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together. 1
5And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies 1 In the mire of the streets in the battle: 1 And they shall fight, because the Lord is with them, 1 And the riders on horses shall be confounded. 1
6And I will strengthen the house of Judah, 1 And I will save the house of Joseph, 1 And I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: 1 And they shall be as though I had not cast them off: 1 For I am the Lord their God, and will hear them. 1
7And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, 1 And their heart shall rejoice as through wine: 1 Yea, their children shall see it, and be glad; 1 Their heart shall rejoice in the Lord. 1
8I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: 1 And they shall increase as they have increased. 1
9And I will sow them among the people: 1 And they shall remember me in far countries; 1 And they shall live with their children, and turn again. 1
10I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, 1 And gather them out of Assyria; 1 And I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; 1 And place shall not be found for them. 1
11And he shall pass through the sea with affliction, 1 And shall smite the waves in the sea, 1 And all the deeps of the river shall dry up: 1 And the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, 1 And the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away. 1
12And I will strengthen them in the Lord; 1 And they shall walk up and down in his name, saith the Lord.
