26 Then the Lord of Armies will raise his whip against them.
As he struck down Midian at the Rock of Oreb
and raised his staff over the water,
so he will lift it as he did in Egypt.
27 At that time their burden will be removed from your shoulders.
Their yoke [a] will be removed from your neck.
The yoke will be torn away because you have grown fat.

28 They come to Aiath.
They pass through Migron.
They store their equipment at Michmash.
