64. God’s priests were killed by the sword,and his widows couldn’t even cry.
65. But then my Lord woke up—as if he’d been sleeping!Like a warrior shaking off wine,
66. God beat back his foes;he made them an everlasting disgrace.
67. God rejected the tent of Josephand didn’t choose the tribe of Ephraim.
68. Instead, he chose the tribe of Judah,the mountain of Zion, which he loves.
