Zechariah 9:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them;
they will devour and conquer with sling stones,
they will drink and become heated as with wine;
they will be full like bowls—like the corners of the altar.(A)
16 And the Lord their God will save them:
the people, like a flock on that day;(B)
For like gemstones of a crown[a]
they will shine on the land.
17 Then how good and how lovely!
Grain will make the young men flourish,
and new wine the young women.(C)
