My wrath is kindled against the shepherds, and I will visit upon the buck goats: for the Lord of hosts hath visited his flock, the house of Juda, and hath made them as the horse of his glory in the battle.

Out of him shall come forth the corner, out of him the pin, out of him the bow of battle, out of him every exacter together.

And they shall be as mighty men, treading under foot the mire of the ways in battle: and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them, and the riders of horses shall be confounded.

“My anger burns against the shepherds,
    and I will punish the leaders;(A)
for the Lord Almighty will care
    for his flock, the people of Judah,
    and make them like a proud horse in battle.(B)
From Judah will come the cornerstone,(C)
    from him the tent peg,(D)
from him the battle bow,(E)
    from him every ruler.
Together they[a] will be like warriors in battle
    trampling their enemy into the mud of the streets.(F)
They will fight because the Lord is with them,
    and they will put the enemy horsemen to shame.(G)
