Zechariah 9:13-16

13For I will 1bend Judah 2as My bow, I will fill the bow with Ephraim. And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O 3Greece; And I will make you like a 4warrior’s sword.14Then the Lord will appear 5over them, And His 6arrow will go forth like lightning; And the Lord 7God will blow the 8trumpet, And will march in the 9storm winds of the south.15 10The Lord of hosts will defend them. And they will 11devour and trample on the 12sling stones; And they will drink and be 13boisterous as with wine; And they will be filled like a sacrificial basin, Drenched like the 14corners of the altar.16And the Lord their God will 15save them in that day As the flock of His people; For they are as the stones of a 16crown, 17Sparkling in His land.
