Isaiah 10:24-34 ▼

24 Therefore thus says the Lord YHWH of Hosts: “You should not fear, O My people, dwelling in Zion, the Assyrian! With a rod he will strike you, and his staff he will lift up against you in the way of Egypt.

25 For in just a very little while, My rage will come to an end, and My anger will be upon their destruction.”

26 And YHWH of Hosts will stir up against him a whip, like the striking of Midian at the rock of Oreb; and as His rod was over the sea, so will He lift it up in the manner of Egypt.

27 And in that day and it will come to pass that his burden will turned aside from your shoulder and his yoke from your neck and the yoke will be destroyed from the face of fatness,

28 he has come to Ayyah, he has passed over Migron; at Michmash he attends to his vessels.

29 They have passed over at the ford; Geba was a lodging-place for them. Ramah has trembled, Gibeah of Saul has fled.

30 Cry aloud with your voice, O daughter of Gallim! Pay attention, O Laish, O poor Anathoth!

31 Madmenah has fled, those dwelling in Gebim have taken refuge.

32 Yet today he will remain at Nob; he will wave his fist at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

33 Behold, the Lord YHWH of Hosts will lop off the bough with a crash; and those being high of stature will be cut down, and the high ones will be brought low.

34 And He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall before the Mighty One.
