15 I will never send anyone
    to attack your city,
and you will make prisoners
    of those who do attack.
16 Don't forget that I created
metalworkers who make weapons
    over burning coals.
I also created armies
    that can bring destruction.
17 Weapons made to attack you
    won't be successful;
words spoken against you
    won't hurt at all.

My servants, Jerusalem is yours!
I, the Lord, promise
    to bless you with victory.

15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
    whoever attacks you will surrender(A) to you.

16 “See, it is I who created the blacksmith(B)
    who fans the coals into flame
    and forges a weapon(C) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer(D) to wreak havoc;
17     no weapon forged against you will prevail,(E)
    and you will refute(F) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants(G) of the Lord,
    and this is their vindication(H) from me,”
declares the Lord.
