[a]The one who will scatter you is coming to attack you.
    Guard your fortress!
        Keep a lookout on the road!
            Prepare for battle!
                Be very courageous!

Yahweh will restore Jacob’s glory like Israel’s glory,
    although enemies have looted it
        and have destroyed its vines.

The shields of his warriors are painted red.
    His soldiers have red uniforms.
    The metal on his chariots flashes fiery red,
    so do the spears when they are waved
        on the day he prepares for battle.
