12. Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope! Today I declare that I will restore twice as much to you.
13. I will bend Judah as my bow and fill it with Ephraim. I will rouse your sons, O Zion against your sons, O Greece. I will wield you like a warrior’s sword.
14. Then Adonai will be seen over them as His arrow flashes like lightning. Adonai Elohim will blow the shofar and march in whirlwinds of the south.
15. Adonai-Tzva’ot will defend them. They will consume and conquer with sling stones. They will drink and roar as with wine and be filled like a bowl, like the corners of the altar.
16. Adonai their God will save them on that day as the flock of His people. They will be like gems of a crown sparkling over His land.
17. How good and beautiful it will be! Grain will make the young men thrive and new wine the virgin women.”
