10


Ask rainbJer. 14:22 from the Lord
in the season ofcSee Deut. 11:14 the spring rain,
from the LorddPs. 135:7 who makes the storm clouds,
andeEzek. 34:26 he will give them showers of rain,
to everyone the vegetation in the field.

ForfSee Gen. 31:19 the household godsgHab. 2:18 utter nonsense,
and the diviners see lies;
hJer. 23:25 they tell false dreams
and give empty consolation.
ThereforeiEzek. 34:5, 6 the people wander like sheep;
they are afflicted for lack of a shepherd.

j[Ezek. 34:10] “My anger is hot against the shepherds,
andk[Ezek. 34:17] I will punish the leaders;
forlZeph. 2:7 the Lord of hosts cares for his flock, the house of Judah,
and will make them like his majestic steed in battle.

From him shall comem[Ps. 118:22] the cornerstone,
from himnIsa. 22:23 the tent peg,
from him the battle bow,
from him every ruler—o[ch. 9:8] all of them together.

They shall be like mighty men in battle,
p[ch. 9:15] trampling the foe in the mud of the streets;
they shall fight because the Lord is with them,
and they shall put to shameq[Ps. 20:7] the riders on horses.

r[ver. 12] I will strengthen the house of Judah,
andsch. 8:7, 13 I will save the house of Joseph.
t[Jer. 3:18] I will bring them backuIsa. 14:1 because I have compassion on them,
and they shall be as though I had not rejected them,
forvch. 13:9 I am the Lord their God and I will answer them.

Then Ephraim shall become like a mighty warrior,
andwch. 9:15 their hearts shall be glad as with wine.
Their children shall see it and be glad;
their hearts shall rejoice in the Lord.

xIsa. 5:26 I will whistle for them andyJer. 31:10, 11; See Hos. 1:11 gather them in,
for I have redeemed them,
andzEzek. 36:10, 11, 37 they shall be as many as they were before.

a[Hos. 2:23] Though I scattered them among the nations,
yet in far countriesbEzek. 6:9; See Deut. 30:1-3 they shall remember me,
and with their children they shall live and return.

10 cIsa. 11:11; 27:13; Hos. 11:11 I will bring them home from the land of Egypt,
and gather them from Assyria,
andd[Mic. 7:14] I will bring them to the land of Gilead and to Lebanon,
eIsa. 49:20 till there is no room for them.

11 fIsa. 11:15 He shall pass through the sea of troubles
and strike down the waves of the sea,
g[Amos 8:8] and all the depths of the Nile shall be dried up.
The pride of Assyria shall be laid low,
andhEzek. 30:13 the scepter of Egypt shall depart.

12 i[ver. 6] I will make them strong in the Lord,
andjMic. 4:5 they shall walk in his name, ”

declares the Lord.
