Isaiah 10:24-34
New Century Version
24 This is what the Lord God All-Powerful says:
“My people living in Jerusalem,
don’t be afraid of the Assyrians,
who beat you with a rod
and raise a stick against you, as Egypt did.
25 After a short time my anger against you will stop,
and then I will turn my anger to destroying them.”
26 Then the Lord All-Powerful will beat the Assyrians with a whip
as he defeated Midian at the rock of Oreb.
He will raise his stick over the waters
as he did in Egypt.
27 Then the troubles that Assyria puts on you
will be removed,
and the load they make you carry
will be taken away.
Assyria Invades Israel
28 The army of Assyria will enter near Aiath.
Its soldiers will walk through Migron.
They will store their food in Micmash.
29 The army will go over the pass.
The soldiers will sleep at Geba.
The people of Ramah will be afraid,
and the people at Gibeah of Saul will run away.
30 Cry out, Bath Gallim!
Laishah, listen!
Poor Anathoth!
31 The people of Madmenah are running away;
the people of Gebim are hiding.
32 This day the army will stop at Nob.
They will shake their fist at Mount Zion,
at the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Watch! The Lord God All-Powerful
with his great power will chop them down like a great tree.
Those who are great will be cut down;
those who are important will fall to the ground.
34 He will cut them down
as a forest is cut down with an ax.
And the great trees of Lebanon
will fall by the power of the Mighty One.
