²⁵ I will crush the Assyrian^(A) in my land;
    on my mountains I will trample him down.
His yoke^(B) will be taken from my people,
    and his burden removed from their shoulders.^(C)”

²⁶ This is the plan^(D) determined for the whole world;
    this is the hand^(E) stretched out over all nations.
²⁷ For the Lord Almighty has purposed,^(F) and who can thwart him?
    His hand^(G) is stretched out, and who can turn it back?^(H)
