Zechariah 10:1–2

THE LORD RESTORES HIS PEOPLE

10 Ask the Lord for rain

in the season of spring rain.

The Lord makes the rain clouds,

and he will give them showers of rain

and crops in the field for everyone.u

2 For the idols speak falsehood,

and the divinersv see illusions;

they relate empty dreams

and offer empty comfort.

Therefore the people wander like sheep;

they suffer affliction because there is no shepherd.
