Zechariah 9:11-17 - The Restoration Of God's People
11 As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant I have sent forth your prisoners out of the pit in which is no water. 12 Turn you to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will restore double unto you; 13 When I have bent Judah as my bow, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece, and made you like 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. 15 The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and roar as with wine; and they shall be filled with blood like bowls, and like the corners of the altar. 16 And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the jewels of a crown, lifted up as a banner over his land. 17 For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! grain shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maidens.
