Zechariah 10The LORD is described as a rescuing shepherd, who takes his exiled sheep from Assyria and Egypt and brings them through the raging seas in a second exodus back to the land. Once they return, the sheep are transformed into war horses, and the new shepherds lead them to triumph in battle. Unlike the present shepherds, who are leading them to idolatry, these new shepherds will reject the household gods, who utter nonsense, and rid the land of diviners who had given empty consolation through lies and false dreams.
Oh LORD, lead us out, lead us back, lead us with your truth.
