4 For thus spake Jehovah to me, As the lion shall growl, and the young lion over his prey, when a fulness of shepherds shall be called against him, from their voice shall he not be terrified, and shall not he be humbled from their noise: thus shalt Jehovah of armies come down to war from mount Zion and for its hill. 5 Its birds flying, so will Jehovah of armies cover over Jerusalem, covering and he delivered; and passing over he saved. 6 Turn ye back to him against whom the sons of Israel made a deep turning away. 7 For in that day they shall reject a man the vanities of his silver, and the vanities of his gold which your hands made for you to sin. 8 And Assur fell by the sword, not of a man, and the sword not of a man, shall consume him, and he fled for himself from the face of the sword, and his young men shall be for tribute. 9 And his rock shall pass through from fear, and his chiefs were terrified from the signal, says Jehovah whose light to him in Zion, and furnace to him in Jerusalem.
