⁶ “‘I will grant peace in the land,^(G) and you will lie down^(H) and no one will make you afraid.^(I) I will remove wild beasts^(J) from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. ⁷ You will pursue your enemies,^(K) and they will fall by the sword before you. ⁸ Five^(L) of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.^(M)
