Then the remnant of Jacob^(A)
will be among many peoples
like dew from the Lord,^(B)
like showers on the grass,^(C)

or linger for mankind.

Then the remnant of Jacob
will be among the nations, among many peoples,
like a lion among animals of the forest,^(D)

which tramples^(E) and tears^(F) as it passes through,
and there is no one to rescue them.^(G)
