For the idols
have spoken
vanity,
and the diviners
have seen
a lie,
and have told
false
dreams;
they comfort
in vain:
therefore they went
their way as a flock,
they were troubled,
because there was no shepherd.

Mine anger
was kindled
against the shepherds,
and I punished
the goats:
for the LORD
of hosts
hath visited
his flock
the house
of Judah,
and hath made
them as his goodly
horse
in the battle.

Out of him came forth
the corner,
out of him the nail,
out of him the battle
bow,
out of him every oppressor
together.
And they shall be as mighty
men, which tread down
their enemies in the mire
of the streets
in the battle:
and they shall fight,
because the LORD
is with them, and the riders
on horses
shall be confounded.

And I will strengthen
the house
of Judah,
and I will save
the house
of Joseph,
and I will bring them again to place
them; for I have mercy
upon them: and they shall be as though
I had not cast them off:
for I am the LORD
their God,
and will hear
them.

And they of Ephraim
shall be like a mighty

shall rejoice
as through wine:
yea, their children

their heart
shall rejoice

I will hiss
for them, and gather
them; for I have redeemed
them: and they shall increase
as they have increased.
And I will sow
them among the people:
and they shall remember
me in far countries;
and they shall live
with their children,
and turn again.
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 shall not be found
for them.

And he shall pass through
the sea
with affliction,
and shall smite
the waves
in the sea,
and all the deeps
of the river
shall dry up:
and the pride
of Assyria
shall be brought down,
and the sceptre
of Egypt
shall depart away.
