11 From you has gone out
One who (A)plotted evil against the Lord,
A [a](B)wicked counselor.

12 This is what the Lord says:

“Though they are at full strength and so they are many,
So also they will be (C)cut off and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you (D)no longer.
13 So now, I will (E)break his yoke from upon you,
And I will tear your shackles to pieces.”

    and tear your shackles away.”(D)
