I will end their eating meat with its blood still in it,
snatching the disgusting things from between their teeth.”

But the surviving remnant will belong to our God;

yes, on a lowly donkey’s colt.

    to guard it against marauding forces.(D)
Never again will an oppressor overrun my people,
    for now I am keeping watch.(E)
