(A)“As I have planned,
so shall it be,
and as I have purposed,
so shall it stand,
25 that (B)I will break the Assyrian in my land,
and on my mountains trample him underfoot;
and (C)his yoke shall depart from them,
and (D)his burden from their shoulder.”
26 This is the purpose that is purposed
concerning the whole earth,
and this is (E)the hand that is stretched out
over all the nations.
27 (F)For the Lord of hosts has purposed,
and who will annul it?
(G)His hand is stretched out,
and who will turn it back?
