Zechariah

Zechariah 9:15–16

¹⁵The LORD of Hosts will shield them.

They will destroy and conquer with slingstones;

they will drink and roar as with wine.

And they will be filled like sprinkling bowls,

drenched like the corners of the altar.

¹⁶On that day the LORD their God will save them

as the flock of His people;

for like jewels in a crown

they will sparkle over His land.
