1 Ask the Lordfor rain in the spring of the year. It is the Lordwho sends rain clouds and showers, making the fields green for everyone. 2 Mt 9.36;Mk 6.34People consult idols and fortunetellers, but the answers they get are lies and nonsense. Some interpret dreams, but only mislead you; the comfort they give is useless. So the people wander about like lost sheep. They are in trouble because they have no leader.
3 The Lordsays, "I am angry with those foreigners who rule my people, and I am going to punish them. The people of Judahare mine, and I, the LordAlmighty, will take care of them. They will be my powerful war-horses. 4 From among them will come rulers, leaders, and commanders to govern my people.10.4: From among … people; or All oppressors—rulers, leaders, and commanders—will depart together from Judah.5 The people of Judah will be victorious like soldiers who trample their enemies in the mud of the streets. They will fight because the Lordis with them, and they will defeat even the enemy cavalry.
6 "I will make the people of Judahstrong;
I will rescue the people of Israel.
I will have compassion on them
and bring them all back home.
They will be as though I had never rejected them.
I am the Lordtheir God; I will answer their prayers.
7 The people of Israel will be strong like soldiers,
happy like those who have been drinking wine.
Their descendants will remember this victory
and be glad because of what the Lordhas done.
8 "I will call my people
and gather them together.
I will rescue them
and make them as numerous as they used to be.
9 Ba 2.20-32Though I have scattered them among the nations,
yet in far-off places they will remember me.
They and their children will survive
and return home together.
10 From Egyptand AssyriaI will bring them home
and settle them in their own country.
I will settle them in Gileadand Lebanonalso;
the whole land will be filled with people.
11 When they pass through their sea of trouble,
I, the Lord, will strike the waves,
and the depths of the Nilewill go dry.
Proud Assyriawill be humbled,
and mighty Egyptwill lose her power.
12 I will make my people strong;
they will worship and obey me."
The Lordhas spoken.
