Isaiah 10:24 - 10:34

« Isaiah 9 | Isaiah 10 | Isaiah 11 »

24 Therefore thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts, “O My people who inhabit Zion, do not fear the Assyrian who strikes you with the rod and lifts up his staff against you, the way Egypt did. 25 For in a very little while My indignation against you will end and My anger will be directed to their destruction.” 26 And Yahweh of hosts will waken a scourge against him like the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; and His staff will be over the sea and He will lift it up the way He did in Egypt. 27 So it will be in that day, that his burden will be removed from your shoulders and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be broken because of fatness. 28

He has come against Aiath,

He has passed through Migron;

At Michmash he deposited his baggage.

They have gone through the pass, saying,

“Geba will be our lodging place.”

Ramah trembles, and Gibeah of Saul has fled away.

Cry aloud with your voice, O daughter of Gallim!

Pay attention, Laishah and afflicted Anathoth!

Madmenah has fled.

The inhabitants of Gebim have sought refuge.

Yet today he will stand at Nob;

He shakes his fist at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

Behold, the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, will lop off the boughs with a terrible crash;

Those also who are high in stature will be cut in pieces

And those who are lofty will be made low.

He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,

And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
