Isaiah 10:20-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Repentant Remnant of Israel
20 On that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer lean on the one who struck them but will lean on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.(A) 21 A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.(B) 22 For though your people, O Israel, were like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. Destruction is decreed, an overwhelming verdict.(C) 23 For the Lord God of hosts will make a full end, as decreed, in all the earth.[a](D)
24 Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: “O my people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrians when they beat you with a rod and lift up their staff against you as the Egyptians did. 25 For in a very little while my indignation will come to an end, and my anger will be directed to their destruction.”(E) 26 The Lord of hosts will wield a whip against them, as when he struck Midian at the rock of Oreb; his staff will be over the sea, and he will lift it as he did in Egypt.(F) 27 On that day his burden will be removed from your shoulder, and his yoke will be destroyed from your neck.

New International Version
The Remnant of Israel
20 In that day(A) the remnant of Israel,
the survivors(B) of Jacob,
will no longer rely(C) on him
who struck them down(D)
but will truly rely(E) on the Lord,
the Holy One of Israel.(F)
21 A remnant(G) will return,[a](H) a remnant of Jacob
will return to the Mighty God.(I)
22 Though your people be like the sand(J) by the sea, Israel,
only a remnant will return.(K)
Destruction has been decreed,(L)
overwhelming and righteous.
23 The Lord, the Lord Almighty, will carry out
the destruction decreed(M) upon the whole land.(N)
24 Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says:
“My people who live in Zion,(O)
do not be afraid(P) of the Assyrians,
who beat(Q) you with a rod(R)
and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did.
25 Very soon(S) my anger against you will end
and my wrath(T) will be directed to their destruction.(U)”
26 The Lord Almighty will lash(V) them with a whip,
as when he struck down Midian(W) at the rock of Oreb;
and he will raise his staff(X) over the waters,(Y)
as he did in Egypt.
27 In that day(Z) their burden(AA) will be lifted from your shoulders,
their yoke(AB) from your neck;(AC)
the yoke(AD) will be broken
because you have grown so fat.[b]
