For the teraphim° have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie; and they have told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they go their way like sheep. They are oppressed, because there is no shepherd.

Zechariah 10:2 Teraphim were household idols that may have been associated with inheritance rights to the household property.

For the idols^§ H8655 have spoken H1696 (PielPerf) vanity, H205 and the diviners H7080 (QalActPtc) have seen H2372 (QalPerf) a lie, H8267 and have told H1696 (PielImpf) false H7723 dreams; H2472 they comfort H5162 (PielImpf) in vain: H1892 therefore they went H5265 (QalPerf) their way as a flock, H6629 they were troubled,^§ H6031 (QalImpf) because there was no shepherd. H7462 (QalActPtc)

Zechariah 10:2b Or, answered that etc.

διοτι οι αποφθεγγομενοι ελαλησαν κοπους και οι μαντεις ορασεις ψευδεις και τα ενυπνια ψευδη ελαλουν ματαια παρεκαλουν δια τουτο εξηρθησαν ως προβατα και εκακωθησαν διοτι ουκ ην ιασις

It will happen that when anyone still prophesies, then his father and his mother who bore him will tell him, ‘You must die, because you speak lies in Yahweh’s name;’ and his father and his mother who bore him will stab him when he prophesies.

And it shall come to pass, that when any H376 shall yet prophesy, H5012 (NiphImpf) then his father H1 and his mother H517 that begat H3205 (QalActPtc) him shall say H559 (QalPerf) unto him, Thou shalt not live; H2421 (QalImpf) for thou speakest H1696 (PielPerf) lies H8267 in the name H8034 of the Lord: H3068 and his father H1 and his mother H517 that begat H3205 (QalActPtc) him shall thrust H1856 (QalPerf) him through when he prophesieth. H5012 (NiphInf)

και εσται εαν προφητευση ανθρωπος ετι και ερει προς αυτον ο πατηρ αυτου και η μητηρ αυτου οι γεννησαντες αυτον ου ζηση οτι ψευδη ελαλησας επ ονοματι κυριου και συμποδιουσιν αυτον ο πατηρ αυτου και η μητηρ αυτου οι γεννησαντες αυτον εν τω προφητευειν αυτον

“Your words have been harsh against me,” says Yahweh. “Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against you?’

Your words H1697 have been stout H2388 (QalPerf) against me, saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord. H3068 Yet ye say, H559 (QalPerf) What have we spoken H1696 (NiphPerf) so much against thee?

εβαρυνατε επ εμε τους λογους υμων λεγει κυριος και ειπατε εν τινι κατελαλησαμεν κατα σου

Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened and heard, and a book of memory was written before him for those who feared Yahweh and who honored his name.

Then they that feared H3373 the Lord H3068 spake often H1696 (NiphPerf) one H376 to another: H7453 and the Lord H3068 hearkened, H7181 (HiphImpf) and heard H8085 (QalImpf) it, and a book H5612 of remembrance H2146 was written H3789 (NiphImpf) before H6440 him for them that feared H3373 the Lord, H3068 and that thought H2803 (QalActPtc) upon his name. H8034

ταυτα κατελαλησαν οι φοβουμενοι τον κυριον εκαστος προς τον πλησιον αυτου και προσεσχεν κυριος και εισηκουσεν και εγραψεν βιβλιον μνημοσυνου ενωπιον αυτου τοις φοβουμενοις τον κυριον και ευλαβουμενοις το ονομα αυτου
