11 As for you also, because of the (A)blood of your covenant,
I have set your (B)prisoners free from the [a]waterless pit.
12 Return to the [b](C)stronghold, O prisoners [c]who have the (D)hope;
This very day I am declaring that I will return (E)double to you.
13 For I will (F)bend Judah [d]as My bow;
I will fill the bow with Ephraim.
And I will rouse up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O [e](G)Greece;
And I will make you like a (H)mighty man’s sword.
