Zechariah 9:13-15
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
13 For I have bent Judah as my bow;
I have made E′phraim its arrow.
I will brandish your sons, O Zion,
over your sons, O Greece,
and wield you like a warrior’s sword.
14 Then the Lord will appear over them,
and his arrow go forth like lightning;
the Lord God will sound the trumpet,
and march forth in the whirlwinds of the south.
15 The Lord of hosts will protect them,
and they shall devour and tread down the slingers;[a]
and they shall drink their blood[b] like wine,
and be full like a bowl,
drenched like the corners of the altar.
