Then the (A)remnant of Jacob
Will be among many peoples
Like (B)dew from the Lord,
Like (C)showers on vegetation
That do not wait for man,
Or delay for [a]mankind.
The remnant of Jacob
Will be among the nations,
Among many peoples
(D)Like a lion among the animals of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Which, if he passes through,
(E)Tramples and (F)tears,
And there is (G)no one who can rescue.

    and no one can rescue.(F)
