6 I will grant peace in the land so that[a] you will lie down to sleep without anyone terrifying you.[b] I will remove harmful animals[c] from the land, and no sword of war[d] will pass through your land. 7 You will pursue your enemies and they will fall before you by the sword.[e] 8 Five of you will pursue a hundred, and a hundred of you will pursue ten thousand, and your enemies will fall before you by the sword.
