10. I, the Lord, will take awaywar chariots and horsesfrom Israel and Jerusalem.Bows that were made for battlewill be broken.I will bring peace to nations,and your king will rulefrom sea to sea.His kingdom will reachfrom the River Euphratesacross the earth.
11. When I made a sacred agreementwith you, my people,we sealed it with blood.Now some of you are captivesin waterless pits,but I will come to your rescue
