Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds,
and I punished the goats:
for the Lord of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah,
and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.
Out of him came forth the corner,
out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow,
out of him every oppressor together.
And they shall be as mighty men,
which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle:
and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them,
and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

“My anger burns against the shepherds,
    and I will punish the leaders;(A)
for the Lord Almighty will care
    for his flock, the people of Judah,
    and make them like a proud horse in battle.(B)
From Judah will come the cornerstone,(C)
    from him the tent peg,(D)
from him the battle bow,(E)
    from him every ruler.
Together they[a] will be like warriors in battle
    trampling their enemy into the mud of the streets.(F)
They will fight because the Lord is with them,
    and they will put the enemy horsemen to shame.(G)
