14 The Lord will appear over them,and his arrow will go out like lightning.The Almighty Lord will blow the ram’s hornand will march in the storms from the south.
15 The Lord of Armies will defend them.They will destroy and trample the stones used in slings.They will drink and shout as if they were drunk.They will be filled like a sacrificial bowl⌊used for sprinkling⌋ the corners of the altar.
16 On that day the Lord their God will rescue themas the flock of his people.They will certainly sparkle in his land like jewels in a crown.
17 They will be beautiful and lovely.Young men will prosper on grain,and young women will prosper on new wine.
