Isaiah 10:25–34

²⁵For in just a little while

My fury against you will subside,

and My anger will turn to their destruction.”

²⁶And the LORD of Hosts will brandish a whip against them,

as when He struck Midian at the rock of Oreb.

He will raise His staff over the sea,

as He did in Egypt.

²⁷On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders,

and the yoke from your neck.

The yoke will be broken

because your neck will be too large.^d

²⁸Assyria has entered Aiath

and passed through Migron,

storing their supplies at Michmash.

²⁹They have crossed at the ford:

“We will spend the night at Geba.”

Ramah trembles;

Gibeah of Saul flees.

³⁰Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim!

Listen, O Laishah!

O wretched Anathoth!

³¹Madmenah flees;

the people of Gebim take refuge.

³²Yet today they will halt at Nob,

shaking a fist at the mount of Daughter Zion,

at the hill of Jerusalem.

³³Behold, the Lord GOD of Hosts

will lop off the branches with terrifying power.

The tall trees will be cut down,

the lofty ones will be felled.

³⁴He will clear the forest thickets with an axe,

and Lebanon will fall before the Mighty One.
