The Future Role of the Remnant

Then the remnant of Jacob,
    surrounded by many peoples,
shall be like dew from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,
which do not depend upon people
    or wait for any mortal.
And among the nations the remnant of Jacob,
    surrounded by many peoples,
shall be like a lion among the animals of the forest,
    like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
which, when it goes through, treads down
    and tears in pieces, with no one to deliver.
Your hand shall be lifted up over your adversaries,
    and all your enemies shall be cut off.

The remnant(A) of Jacob will be
    in the midst of many peoples
like dew(B) from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,(C)
which do not wait for anyone
    or depend on man.
The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,
    in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,(D)
    like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
which mauls and mangles(E) as it goes,
    and no one can rescue.(F)
Your hand will be lifted up(G) in triumph over your enemies,
    and all your foes will be destroyed.
