5:7 Those survivors from
in the midst of many nations.
They will be like the dew the Lord sends,
like the rain on the grass,

in the midst of many peoples.
They will be like a lion among the animals of the forest,
like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
which attacks when it passes through;
it rips its prey
