Zechariah 9:12-14
New Living Translation
12 Come back to the place of safety,
all you prisoners who still have hope!
I promise this very day
that I will repay two blessings for each of your troubles.
13 Judah is my bow,
and Israel is my arrow.
Jerusalem[a] is my sword,
and like a warrior, I will brandish it against the Greeks.[b]
14 The Lord will appear above his people;
his arrows will fly like lightning!
The Sovereign Lord will sound the ram’s horn
and attack like a whirlwind from the southern desert.

even now I announce that I will restore twice(B) as much to you.
13 I will bend Judah as I bend my bow(C)
and fill it with Ephraim.(D)
I will rouse your sons, Zion,
against your sons, Greece,(E)
and make you like a warrior’s sword.(F)
The Lord Will Appear

King James Version
12 Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;
13 When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
14 And the Lord shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord God shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
