⁷And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples as dew from Jehovah, as showers upon the grass, that tarry not for man, nor wait for the sons of men. ⁸And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep; who, if he go through, treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver. ⁹Let thy hand be lifted up above thine adversaries, and let all thine enemies be cut off.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

Then the remnant of Jacob shall be

in the midst of many peoples

like dew from the Lord,

like showers on the grass,

which delay not for a man

nor wait for the children of man.

And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations,

in the midst of many peoples,

like a lion among the beasts of the forest,

like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,

which, when it goes through, treads down

and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver.

Your hand shall be lifted up over your adversaries,

and all your enemies shall be cut off.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The remnant of Jacob will be

in the midst of many peoples

like dew from the Lord,

like showers on the grass,

which do not wait for anyone

or depend on man.

The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,

in the midst of many peoples,

like a lion among the beasts of the forest,

like a young lion among flocks of sheep,

which mauls and mangles as it goes,

and no one can rescue.

Your hand will be lifted up in triumph over your enemies,

and all your foes will be destroyed.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Then the remnant of Jacob

will be among many peoples

like dew from the Lord,

like showers on the grass,

which do not wait for anyone

or linger for mankind.

Then the remnant of Jacob

will be among the nations, among many peoples,

like a lion among animals of the forest,

like a young lion among flocks of sheep,

which tramples and tears as it passes through,

and there is no one to rescue them.

Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries,

and all your enemies will be destroyed.

NLTNew Living Translation

Then the remnant left in Israel

will take their place among the nations.

They will be like dew sent by the Lord

or like rain falling on the grass,

which no one can hold back

and no one can restrain.

The remnant left in Israel

will take their place among the nations.

They will be like a lion among the animals of the forest,

like a strong young lion among flocks of sheep and goats,

pouncing and tearing as they go

with no rescuer in sight.

The people of Israel will stand up to their foes,

and all their enemies will be wiped out.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

in the midst of many nations,

like dew from Yahweh,

like showers upon the grass

which does not wait for a man,

nor delays for the children of humankind.

And the remnant of Jacob will be among the nations,

in the midst of many peoples,

like a lion among the wild animals of the forest,

like a young lion among the herds of sheep

which, when it passes through and treads down

and tears in pieces, there is none who can deliver.

Your hand will be lifted high over your enemies,

and all your foes will be cut off.

KJV 1900King James Version

And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people

As a dew from the Lord,

As the showers upon the grass,

That tarrieth not for man,

Nor waiteth for the sons of men.

And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people

As a lion among the beasts of the forest,

As a young lion among the flocks of sheep:

Who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces,

And none can deliver.

Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries,

And all thine enemies shall be cut off.
