Zechariah 9:14-17
New American Standard Bible
14 Then the Lord will appear (A)over them,
And His (B)arrow will go forth like lightning;
And the Lord [a]God will blow the (C)trumpet,
And march in the (D)storm winds of the south.
15 (E)The Lord of armies will protect them.
And they will (F)devour and trample on the (G)slingstones;
And they will drink and be (H)boisterous as with wine;
And they will be filled like a sacrificial basin,
Drenched like the (I)corners of the altar.
16 And the Lord their God will (J)save them on that day
As the flock of His people;
For they are like the precious stones of a (K)crown,
Sparkling on His land.
17 For how great will [b]their (L)loveliness and (M)beauty be!
Grain will make the young men flourish, and new wine, the virgins.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
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)
16 On that day the Lord their God will save them,
for they are the flock of his people,
for like the jewels of a crown
they shall shine on his land.(C)
17 For what goodness and beauty are his!
Grain shall make the young men flourish,
and new wine the young women.(D)
