24 Can the prey be taken from the mighty,
    or the captives of a tyrant[a] be rescued?
25 But thus says the Lord:
Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken,
    and the prey of the tyrant be rescued;
for I will contend with those who contend with you,
    and I will save your children.
26 I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh,
    and they shall be drunk with their own blood as with wine.
Then all flesh shall know
    that I am the Lord your Saviour,
    and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
