ગુજરાતીઝખાર્યા ૯:૧૩
કેમ કે મેં મારા માટે યહૂદાને ધનુષ્ય ઠરાવ્યું છે અને એફ્રાઇમ મારો બાણ થશે. હે સિયોન, હું તારા દીકરાઓને ગ્રીસના દીકરાઓ સામે લડવા જાગૃત કરીશ, હું તને યોદ્ધાની તલવારરૂપ કરીશ!
हिन्दीजकर्याह ९:१३
क्योंकि मैंने धनुष के समान यहूदा को चढ़ाकर उस पर तीर के समान एप्रैम को लगाया है। मैं सिय्योन के निवासियों को यूनान के निवासियों के विरुद्ध उभारूँगा, और उन्हें वीर की तलवार सा कर दूँगा।

In context

11As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.

12Turn to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope! Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.

13For indeed I bend Judah as a bow for me. I have loaded the bow with Ephraim. I will stir up your sons, Zion, against your sons, Greece, and will make you like the sword of a mighty man.

14The LORD will be seen over them. His arrow will flash like lightning. The Lord GOD will blow the trumpet, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.

15The LORD of Armies will defend them. They will destroy and overcome with sling stones. They will drink, and roar as through wine. They will be filled like bowls, like the corners of the altar.
