Then the (A)remnant of Jacob
Will be among many peoples
Like (B)dew from Yahweh,
Like (C)showers on vegetation
Which do not hope for man
Or wait for the sons of men.
Then the remnant of Jacob
Will be among the nations,
Among many peoples
(D)Like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Which, if it passes through,
(E)Tramples down and (F)tears,
And there is (G)none to deliver.
Your hand will be (H)raised up against your adversaries,
And all your enemies will be cut off.

13 For I will (A)bend Judah [a]as My bow;
I will fill the bow with Ephraim.
And I will rouse up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O [b](B)Greece;
And I will make you like a (C)mighty man’s sword.
14 Then Yahweh will appear (D)over them,
And His (E)arrow will go forth like lightning;
And Lord Yahweh will blow the (F)trumpet
And will go in the (G)storm winds of the south.
15 (H)Yahweh of hosts will defend them.
And they will (I)consume and trample on the (J)stones of a sling;
And they will drink and (K)roar as with wine;
And they will be filled like a sacrificial bowl,
Drenched like the (L)corners of the altar.
16 And Yahweh their God will (M)save them in that day
As the flock of His people;
For they are as the stones of a (N)crown,
[c]Sparkling in His land.

“My (A)anger burns against the shepherds,
And I will visit punishment upon the [a]male goats;
For Yahweh of hosts has (B)visited His flock, the house of Judah,
And will make them like His splendid horse in battle.
From [b]them will come the (C)cornerstone,
From [c]them the tent peg,
From [d]them the bow of [e](D)battle,
From [f]them every good [g]taskmaster, all of them together.
And they will be as mighty men,
(E)Treading down the enemy in the mire of the streets in battle;
And they will battle, for Yahweh will be with them;
And the (F)riders on horses will be put to shame.
I will (G)make the house of Judah mighty,
And I will (H)save the house of Joseph,
And I will [h](I)cause them to return,
Because I have had (J)compassion on them;
And they will be as though I had (K)not rejected them,
For I am Yahweh their God, and I will (L)answer them.
