GOD’S WORD Translation
11 I will set your captives free from the waterless pit
because of the blood that sealed my promise [a] to you.
12 Return to your fortress, you captives who have hope.
Today I tell you that I will return to you double ⌞blessings⌟.
13 I will bend Judah as my bow
and draw my bow with Ephraim ⌞as its arrow⌟.

and I will use you like a warrior’s sword.
