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. 16 On 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. 17 How lovely they will be, and how beautiful!
