    But you Zion, I will use your people like swords,
    with which I kill Greeks.’” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
  • Newari: “I myself will fight with the soldiers of the Greek,
    the people of Judah are my bow.
    The people of Ephraim are my arrow.
    And the people of Jerusalem are my sword
    to wave against my enemies.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
