13 I will use Judah like a soldier's bow
    and Israel like the arrows.
I will use the men of Zion like a sword,
    to fight the men of Greece.”

14 The Lord will appear above his people;
    he will shoot his arrows like lightning.
The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet;
    he will march in the storms from the south.
15 The Lord Almighty will protect his people,
    and they will destroy their enemies.
They will shout in battle like drunk men
    and will shed the blood of their enemies;
    it will flow like the blood of a sacrifice
    poured on the altar from a bowl.[a]
