Isaiah 10:24–34
24 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh of hosts:
“My people who live in Zion,
you must not be afraid of Assyria.
It beats you with the rod,
and it lifts up its staff against you ⌊as the Egyptians did⌋.r
25 My indignation will come to an end ⌊in just a very little while⌋,s
and my anger will be directed to their destruction.”
26 And Yahweh of hosts is going to swing a whip against him,
as when Midian was defeated at the rock of Oreb;
and his staff will be over the sea,
and he will lift him up ⌊as he did in Egypt⌋.t
27 And this shall happen: on that day,
he will remove his burden from your shoulder
and his yoke from your neck,
⌊and a yoke will be destroyed because of fat⌋.u
he has passed through Migron;
at Micmash he deposited his baggage.
29 They crossed over the pass;
Geba is a place of overnight lodging for us.
Ramah trembles;
Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Daughter of Gallim, cry out with your voice;
Laishah, listen!
⌊Anathoth is poor⌋.v
The inhabitants of Gebim bring themselves into safety!
32 ⌊This day⌋w ⌊taking a stand⌋x at Nob,
he will shake his fist at the mountain of the daughtery of Zion,
at the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Look! The Lord Yahweh of hosts is about to lop off the branchesz with great power,
and ⌊the towering trees⌋a will be felled,
and the ⌊tall trees⌋b will be brought low.
34 And he will cut down the thickets of the forest with the axe,
and Lebanon will fall by the mighty one.
