The Restoration for Judah and Israel

10 Ask rain (A)from the Lord
    in the season of (B)the spring rain,
from the Lord (C)who makes the storm clouds,
    and (D)he will give them showers of rain,
    to everyone the vegetation in the field.
For (E)the household gods (F)utter nonsense,
    and the diviners see lies;
(G)they tell false dreams
    and give empty consolation.
Therefore (H)the people wander like sheep;
    they are afflicted for lack of a shepherd.

(I)“My anger is hot against the shepherds,
    and (J)I will punish the leaders;[a]
for (K)the Lord of hosts cares for his flock, the house of Judah,
    and will make them like his majestic steed in battle.
