Fitted the bow with Ephraim,
And raised up your sons, O Zion,
Against your sons, O Greece,
And made you like the sword of a mighty man.”
And aHis arrow will go forth like lightning.
The Lord God will blow the trumpet,
And go bwith whirlwinds from the south.
They shall devour and subdue with slingstones.
They shall drink and roar as if with wine;
They shall be filled with blood like1 basins,
Like the corners of the altar.
As the flock of His people.
For bthey shall be like the jewels of a crown,
cLifted like a banner over His land—
And how great its bbeauty!
cGrain shall make the young men thrive,
And new wine the young women.

Zechariah 9:15
Devour - Destroy their enemies. With sling - stones - As David did Goliath. Shall drink - In their festivals, when they offer sacrifices of thanksgiving for their victories. Make a noise - Shout with shouts of triumph, as men do whose hearts are glad with success, and cheared with wine. Shall fill - With the blood of the sacrifices they offer.
