13And now, I will break his yoke from upon you;

I will snap your bonds.”

and tear off your shackles.

Now I will break the yoke of bondage from your neck

and tear off the chains of Assyrian oppression.”

Though they be quiet, and likewise many,

Yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through.

And will burst thy bonds in sunder.
