Passing over, He will preserve it.”

Assyria Destroyed
24 The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying,
“Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass,
And as I have purposed, so it shall (A)stand:
25 That I will break the (B)Assyrian in My land,
And on My mountains tread him underfoot.
Then (C)his yoke shall be removed from them,
And his burden removed from their shoulders.
26 This is the (D)purpose that is purposed against the whole earth,
And this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 For the Lord of hosts has (E)purposed,
And who will annul it?
His hand is stretched out,
And who will turn it back?”
Isaiah 10:25-34

27 It shall come to pass in that day
That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder,
And his yoke from your neck,
And the yoke will be destroyed because of (E)the anointing oil.
28 He has come to Aiath,
He has passed Migron;
At Michmash he has attended to his equipment.
29 They have gone [b]along (F)the ridge,
They have taken up lodging at Geba.
Ramah is afraid,
(G)Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 [c]Lift up your voice,
O daughter (H)of Gallim!
Cause it to be heard as far as (I)Laish—
[d]O poor Anathoth!
31 (J)Madmenah has fled,
The inhabitants of Gebim seek refuge.
32 As yet he will remain (K)at Nob that day;
He will (L)shake his fist at the mount of (M)the daughter of Zion,
The hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold, the Lord,
The Lord of hosts,
Will lop off the bough with terror;
(N)Those of high stature will be hewn down,
And the haughty will be humbled.

And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
