Zechariah 9:11-17

English Standard Version

¹¹As for you also, because of ^(A)the blood of my covenant with you,
    ^(B)I will set your prisoners free from ^(C)the waterless pit.
¹²Return to your stronghold, O ^(D)prisoners of hope;
    today I declare that ^(E)I will restore to you double.
¹³For ^(F)I have bent Judah as my bow;
    I have made Ephraim its arrow.
I will stir up your sons, O Zion,
    against your sons, ^(G)O Greece,
    and wield you like a warrior's sword.

The Lord Will Save His People

¹⁴Then the Lord will appear over them,
    and ^(H)his arrow will go forth like lightning;
^(I)the Lord God will sound the trumpet
    and will march forth in ^(J)the whirlwinds ^(K)of the south.
¹⁵The Lord of hosts ^(L)will protect them,
    and ^(M)they shall devour, ^(N)and tread down the sling stones,
and ^(O)they shall drink and roar as if drunk with wine,
    and be full like a bowl,
    drenched ^(P)like the corners of the altar.

¹⁶On that day the Lord their God will save them,
    as ^(Q)the flock of his people;
for ^(R)like the jewels of a crown
    they shall shine on his land.
¹⁷^(S)For how great is his goodness, and how great his beauty!
    ^(T)Grain shall make the young men flourish,
    and new wine the young women.
