4 Out of him shall come the corner, out of him the stake, out of him the battle bow, out of him also every oppressor.
5 And they shall be as mighty men, who tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle; and they shall fight because the Lord shall be with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.
6 For I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will keep the house of Joseph, and I will cause them to return; for I shall have compassion upon them, and they shall be as though I had not cast them off, for I am the Lord their God and will hear them.
7 And those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine, their sons shall also see it and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in the Lord.
8 I will hiss for them and gather them; for I have ransomed them; and they shall be multiplied as they were multiplied.
9 It was good that I planted them among the peoples; even in far countries there shall be mention made of me; and they shall live with their sons and turn again.
10 I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and place shall not be found for them.
