13. I will bend Judah as I bend my bowand fill it with Ephraim.I will rouse your sons, Zion,against your sons, Greece,and make you like a warrior’s sword.
14. Then the Lord will appear over them;his arrow will flash like lightning.The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet;he will march in the storms of the south,
15. and the Lord Almighty will shield them.They will destroyand overcome with slingstones.They will drink and roar as with wine;they will be full like a bowlused for sprinkling the corners of the altar.
16. The Lord their God will save his people on that dayas a shepherd saves his flock.They will sparkle in his landlike jewels in a crown.
17. How attractive and beautiful they will be!Grain will make the young men thrive,and new wine the young women.
