Use your power to rescue us!
    Answer our prayers!
Then the people that you love will be safe.
God has spoken from his holy place![a]
He has promised:
‘I will show my power!
    I will make Shechem into separate pieces.
    I will measure Succoth Valley.
Gilead belongs to me,
    and so does Manasseh.
Ephraim is like my helmet for war.
Judah has the authority of my royal sceptre.[b]

  2. 60:7 The first six places were all parts of Israel. They all belong to God. He will decide what to do with them. They will have important jobs, like Ephraim as a soldier and Judah as a judge.
