Zechariah 9:12-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope;
today I declare that I will restore to you double.(A)
13 For I have bent Judah as my bow;
I have made Ephraim its arrow.[a]
I will arouse your sons, O Zion,
against your sons, O Greece,
and wield you like a warrior’s sword.(B)
14 Then the Lord will appear over them,
and his arrow go forth like lightning;
the Lord God will sound the trumpet
and march forth in the whirlwinds of the south.(C)
