11As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I have set free thy prisoners from the pit wherein is no water.
12Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope: even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
13For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man.
14And Jehovah shall be seen over them; and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord Jehovah will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
15Jehovah of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
16And Jehovah their God will save them in that day as the flock of his people; for [they shall be as] the stones of a crown, lifted on high over his land.
17For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! grain shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the virgins.
