    (E)there is none like it;
it is a time of distress for Jacob;
    yet he shall be saved out of it.

“And it shall come to pass in that day, declares the Lord of hosts, that I will (F)break his (G)yoke from off your neck, and I will (H)burst your bonds, (I)and foreigners shall no more make a servant of him.[a]
