updv - Zechariah:10-11

updv@Zechariah:10:1 @ Ask(note:){+}(:note) of Yahweh rain in the time of the latter rain, [even of] Yahweh who makes lightnings; and he will give them showers of rain, to everyone grass in the field.

updv@Zechariah:10:2 @ For the talismans have spoken vanity, and the fortune-tellers 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.

updv@Zechariah:10:3 @ My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for Yahweh of hosts has visited his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them as his goodly horse in the battle.

updv@Zechariah:10:4 @ From him will come forth the cornerstone, from him the nail, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler together.

updv@Zechariah:10:5 @ And they will be as mighty men, treading down [their enemies] in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they will fight, because Yahweh is with them; and the riders on horses will be confounded.

updv@Zechariah:10:6 @ And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back; for I have mercy on them; and they will be as though I had not cast them off: for I am Yahweh their God, and I will hear them.

updv@Zechariah:10:7 @ And [they of] Ephraim will be like a mighty man, and their heart will rejoice as through wine; yes, their sons will see it, and rejoice; their heart will be glad in Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:10:8 @ I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them; and they will increase as they have increased.

updv@Zechariah:10:9 @ And I will sow them among the peoples; and they will remember me in far countries; and they will raise their sons, and will return.

updv@Zechariah:10:10 @ 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] will not be found for them.

updv@Zechariah:10:11 @ And he will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up; and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.

updv@Zechariah:10:12 @ And I will strengthen them in Yahweh; and they will walk up and down in his name, says Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:1 @ Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.

updv@Zechariah:11:2 @ Wail, O fir-tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the goodly ones are destroyed: wail, O you(note:){+}(:note) oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.

updv@Zechariah:11:3 @ A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! For their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions! For the pride of the Jordan is laid waste.

updv@Zechariah:11:4 @ Thus Yahweh my God said: Shepherd the flock of slaughter;

updv@Zechariah:11:5 @ whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty; and those who sell them say, Blessed be Yahweh, for I am rich; and their own shepherds don't pity them.

updv@Zechariah:11:6 @ For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, says Yahweh; but, look, I will deliver man, every man into his fellow man's hand, and into the hand of his king; and they will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.

updv@Zechariah:11:7 @ So I shepherded the flock of slaughter, and the sheep-dealers. And I took to me two poles; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I shepherded the flock.

updv@Zechariah:11:8 @ And I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.

updv@Zechariah:11:9 @ Then I said, I will not shepherd you(note:){+}(:note): that which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those that are left eat every one the flesh of another.

updv@Zechariah:11:10 @ And I took my staff Beauty, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.

updv@Zechariah:11:11 @ And it was broken in that day; and the sheep-dealers that gave heed to me knew that it was the word of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:12 @ And I said to them, If you(note:){+}(:note) think good, give me my wages; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my wages thirty [pieces] of silver.

updv@Zechariah:11:13 @ And Yahweh said to me, Cast it to the potter, the goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty [pieces] of silver, and cast them to the potter, in the house of Yahweh.

updv@Zechariah:11:14 @ Then I cut apart my other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

updv@Zechariah:11:15 @ And Yahweh said to me, Take to yourself yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

updv@Zechariah:11:16 @ For, look, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those that are cut off, neither will seek that which remains behind, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat [sheep], and will tear their hoofs in pieces.

updv@Zechariah:11:17 @ Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaves the flock! The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye: his arm will be clean dried up, and his right eye will be completely darkened.

updv@Zechariah:12:1 @ The burden of the word of Yahweh concerning Israel. [Thus] says Yahweh, who stretches forth the heavens, and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man inside him:
