¹ 当春雨的时候，你们要向发闪电的耶和华求雨。他必为众人降下甘霖，使田园生长菜蔬。

² 因为，家神所言的是虚空；卜士所见的是虚假；做梦者所说的是假梦。他们白白地安慰人，所以众人如羊流离，因无牧人就受苦。

³ 我的怒气向牧人发作；我必惩罚公山羊；因我─万军之耶和华眷顾自己的羊群，就是犹大家，必使他们如骏马在阵上。

⁴ 房角石、钉子、争战的弓，和一切掌权的都从他而出。

⁵ 他们必如勇士在阵上将仇敌践踏在街上的泥土中。他们必争战，因为耶和华与他们同在；骑马的也必羞愧。

⁶ 我要坚固犹大家，拯救约瑟家，要领他们归回。我要怜恤他们；他们必像未曾弃绝的一样，都因我是耶和华─他们的神，我必应允他们的祷告。

⁷ 以法莲人必如勇士；他们心中畅快如同喝酒；他们的儿女必看见而快活；他们的心必因耶和华喜乐。

⁸ 我要发嘶声，聚集他们，因我已经救赎他们。他们的人数必加增，如从前加增一样。

⁹ 我虽然（或译：必）播散他们在列国中，他们必在远方记念我。他们与儿女都必存活，且得归回。

¹⁰ 我必再领他们出埃及地，招聚他们出亚述，领他们到基列和利巴嫩；这地尚且不够他们居住。

¹¹ 耶和华必经过苦海，击打海浪，使尼罗河的深处都枯乾。亚述的骄傲必致卑微；埃及的权柄必然灭没。

¹² 我必使他们倚靠我，得以坚固；一举一动必奉我的名。这是耶和华说的。

¹¹ I will establish my covenant with you: all flesh will not be cut off any more by the waters of the flood, neither will there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth."

¹² God said, "This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:

¹³ I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be for a sign of a covenant between me and the earth.

¹⁴ It will happen, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,

¹⁵ and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

¹⁶ The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."

¹⁷ God said to Noah, "This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth."
