Zechariah 10:2

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

For idols speak deceit and diviners see illusions; they tell false dreams and offer empty comfort. Therefore the people wander like sheep, oppressed for lack of a shepherd.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
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.

Strong's King James
For the household 'gods' speak nonsense, The diviners see a lie, They tell dreams of delusion, Their comfort in vapour, Therefore they journey like sheep, They are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

The F.O.G Paraphrase
Because the teraphim did speak iniquity, And the diviners have seen a falsehood, And dreams of the vanity they speak, With vanity they give comfort, Therefore they have journeyed as a flock, They are afflicted, for there is no shepherd.
