4. For thus saith Jehovah unto me, As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, if a multitude of shepherds be called forth against him, will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so will Jehovah of hosts come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon the hill thereof.
5. As birds hovering, so will Jehovah of hosts protect Jerusalem; he will protect and deliver it, he will pass over and preserve it.
6. Turn ye unto him from whom ye have deeply revolted, O children of Israel.
7. For in that day they shall cast away every man his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.
