14 Then Yahweh will appear (A)over them,
And His (B)arrow will go forth like lightning;
And Lord Yahweh will blow the (C)trumpet
And will go in the (D)storm winds of the south.
15 (E)Yahweh of hosts will defend them.
And they will (F)consume and trample on the (G)stones of a sling;
And they will drink and (H)roar as with wine;
And they will be filled like a sacrificial bowl,
Drenched like the (I)corners of the altar.
16 And Yahweh their God will (J)save them in that day
As the flock of His people;
For they are as the stones of a (K)crown,
[a]Sparkling in His land.
17 For what (L)goodness and (M)what beauty will be [b]theirs!
Grain will make the choice men flourish, and new wine the virgins.

14 Then the Lord will appear over them,
    and his arrow go forth like lightning;
the Lord God will sound the trumpet
    and march forth in the whirlwinds of the south.(A)
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them,
    and they shall consume and conquer the slingers;[a]
they shall drink their blood[b] like wine
    and be full like a bowl,
    drenched like the corners of the altar.(B)

    they shall shine on his land.(C)
