Yahweh’s Plan to Break Assyrian Rule
24 Yahweh of hosts has sworn saying, “Surely, (A)just as I have intended so it has happened, and just as I have counseled so it will stand, 25 to (B)break Assyria in My land, and I will trod him down on My mountains. Then his (C)yoke will be removed from them and his burden removed from their shoulder. 26 This is the (D)counsel that is counseled against the whole earth; and this is the (E)hand that is stretched out against all the nations. 27 For (F)Yahweh of hosts has counseled, and who can thwart it? And as for His stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?”

Zephaniah 2:13-15
Legacy Standard Bible
13 And He will (A)stretch out His hand against the north
And cause (B)Assyria to perish,
And He will make (C)Nineveh a desolation,
Parched like the wilderness.
14 Flocks will lie down in her midst,
All the beasts of the nation;
Both the [a](D)pelican and the hedgehog
Will lodge in [b]the tops of her pillars;
Their voice will sing in the window,
Ruin will be on the threshold;
For He has laid bare the cedar work.
15 This is the (E)exultant city
Which (F)inhabits securely,
Who says in her heart,
“(G)I am, and there is no one besides me.”
How she has become an object of (H)horror,
A resting place for beasts!
(I)Everyone who passes by her will hiss
And wave his hand in contempt.
