This will be a terrible day!
    There will never be another time like this.
This is a time of great trouble for the people of Jacob.
    But they will be saved from it.”

The Lord of heaven’s armies says, “At that time
    I will break the yoke from their necks.
And I will break the ropes holding them.
    Foreign people will never again make my people slaves!
They will serve the Lord their God.
    And they will serve David their king.
    I will send that king to them.

How awful that day(A) will be!
    No other will be like it.
It will be a time of trouble(B) for Jacob,
    but he will be saved(C) out of it.

“‘In that day,’ declares the Lord Almighty,
    ‘I will break the yoke(D) off their necks
and will tear off their bonds;(E)
    no longer will foreigners enslave them.(F)
Instead, they will serve the Lord their God
    and David(G) their king,(H)
    whom I will raise up for them.

But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
