Israel’s Lord Appears

14 The Lord will appear over them—
    his arrow will shoot like lightning.
The Lord God will blow the trumpet,
    and go out with the southern windstorm.
15 The Lord of the Heavenly Armies will defend them;
    they will devour and conquer those who sling stones.
They will drink and be boisterous like those who are drunk.
    They will be filled to the brim with blood,[a]
        like the corners of the altar.
16 The Lord their God will save them at that time[b]
    as his very own flock of people,
because they are his crown jewels,
    exalted throughout his land.
