The Lord Will Save His People

11 Jerusalem, we used blood to seal your agreement,
    so I am setting your people free from that empty hole in the ground.[a]
12 Prisoners, go home!
    Now you have something to hope for.
I am telling you now,
    I am coming back to you.
13 Judah, I will use you like a bow.
    Ephraim, I will use you like arrows.
Israel, I will use you like a sword
    to fight against the men of Greece.
