Zechariah 10:9-11
Contemporary English Version
Zechariah 10:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 (A) Although I scattered my people
in distant countries,
they won't forget me.
Once their children are raised,[a]
they will return—
10 I will bring them home
from Egypt and Assyria,
then let them settle
as far as Gilead and Lebanon,
until the land overflows
with them.
11 My people will go through
an ocean of troubles,
but I will overcome the waves
and dry up the deepest part
of the Nile.
Assyria's great pride
will be put down,
and the power of Egypt
will disappear.

yet in distant lands they will remember me.(A)

and gather them from Assyria.(B)
I will bring them to Gilead(C) and Lebanon,

the surging sea will be subdued
and all the depths of the Nile will dry up.(E)
