Zechariah 9:14-17
Christian Standard Bible
14 Then the Lord will appear over them,
and his arrow will fly like lightning.
The Lord God will sound the ram’s horn
and advance with the southern storms.(A)
15 The Lord of Armies will defend them.
They will consume and conquer with slingstones;
they will drink and be rowdy as if with wine.(B)
They will be as full as the sprinkling basin,(C)
like those at the corners of the altar.(D)
16 The Lord their God will save them on that day
as the flock of his people;(E)
for they are like jewels in a crown,(F)
sparkling over his land.
17 How lovely and beautiful!
Grain will make the young men flourish,
and new wine, the young women.
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.
