Isaiah 10:24-34
New International Version
24 Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says:
“My people who live in Zion,(A)
do not be afraid(B) of the Assyrians,
who beat(C) you with a rod(D)
and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did.
25 Very soon(E) my anger against you will end
and my wrath(F) will be directed to their destruction.(G)”
26 The Lord Almighty will lash(H) them with a whip,
as when he struck down Midian(I) at the rock of Oreb;
and he will raise his staff(J) over the waters,(K)
as he did in Egypt.
27 In that day(L) their burden(M) will be lifted from your shoulders,
their yoke(N) from your neck;(O)
the yoke(P) will be broken
because you have grown so fat.[a]
28 They enter Aiath;
they pass through Migron;(Q)
they store supplies(R) at Mikmash.(S)
29 They go over the pass, and say,
“We will camp overnight at Geba.(T)”
Ramah(U) trembles;
Gibeah(V) of Saul flees.(W)
30 Cry out, Daughter Gallim!(X)
Listen, Laishah!
Poor Anathoth!(Y)
31 Madmenah is in flight;
the people of Gebim take cover.
32 This day they will halt at Nob;(Z)
they will shake their fist(AA)
at the mount of Daughter Zion,(AB)
at the hill of Jerusalem.

Common English Bible
24 Therefore, the Lord God of heavenly forces says: My people who live in Zion, don’t fear Assyria, which strikes you with the rod and raises its staff against you as Egypt did. 25 In a very short time my fury will end, and my anger at the world will be finished.[a]
26 Therefore, the Lord of heavenly forces will crack a whip against Assyria,
as when he struck Midian at the rock of Oreb.
He will raise a rod over the sea,
as he did in Egypt.
27 On that day, God will remove the burden from your shoulder
and destroy the yoke on your neck.[b]
The exalted laid low
He has gone up from Samaria,
28 come against Aiath,
passed to Migron.
At Michmash he stored his equipment.
29 They crossed at the pass: “We’ll camp at Geba!”
Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Cry aloud, Daughter Gallim!
Listen, Laishah! Answer her, Anathoth!
31 Madmenah has flown.
Gebim’s inhabitants sought refuge.
32 This very day he will stand at Nob
and shake his fist[c] at Daughter Zion’s mountain,
the hill of Jerusalem!
33 Look! The Lord God of heavenly forces
is chopping off the branches with terrible power.
The loftiest ones are about to be cut down
and the exalted laid low.
34 He will strike down the forest thickets with an ax,
and mighty Lebanon will fall.

King James Version
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.
26 And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
28 He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages:
29 They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled.
30 Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth.
31 Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.
32 As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled.
34 And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.
