Isaiah 10:24-34
Legacy Standard Bible
24 Therefore thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts, “O My people who inhabit (A)Zion, (B)do not fear the Assyrian [a]who (C)strikes you with the rod and lifts up his staff against you, the way Egypt did. 25 For in a very (D)little while (E)My indignation against you will end and My anger will be directed to their destruction.” 26 And Yahweh of hosts will (F)waken a scourge against him like the slaughter of (G)Midian at the rock of Oreb; and His (H)staff will be over the sea and He will lift it up (I)the way He did in Egypt. 27 So it will be in that day, that [b]his (J)burden will be removed from your shoulders and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be broken because (K)of fatness.
28 He has come against Aiath,
He has passed through (L)Migron;
At (M)Michmash he deposited his (N)baggage.
29 They have gone through (O)the pass, saying,
“(P)Geba will be our lodging place.”
(Q)Ramah trembles, and (R)Gibeah of Saul has fled away.
30 Cry aloud with your voice, O daughter of (S)Gallim!
Pay attention, Laishah and [c]afflicted (T)Anathoth!
31 Madmenah has fled.
The inhabitants of Gebim have sought refuge.
32 Yet today he will stand at (U)Nob;
He (V)shakes his fist at the mountain of the [d](W)daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold, the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, will lop off the boughs with a terrible crash;
Those also who are (X)high in stature will be cut in pieces
And those who are lofty will be made low.
34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,
And (Y)Lebanon will fall [e]by the Mighty One.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
24 Therefore, the Lord God of Hosts says this: “My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria, though he strikes you with a rod and raises his staff over you as the Egyptians did. 25 In just a little while My wrath will be spent and My anger will turn to their destruction.” 26 And the Lord of Hosts will brandish a whip against him as He did when He struck Midian at the rock of Oreb;(A) and He will raise His staff over the sea as He did in Egypt.
God Will Judge Assyria
27 On that day
his burden will fall from your shoulders,
and his yoke from your neck.
The yoke will be broken because of fatness.[a]
28 Assyria has come to Aiath
and has gone through Migron,
storing his equipment at Michmash.
29 They crossed over at the ford, saying,
“We will spend the night at Geba.”
The people of Ramah are trembling;
those at Gibeah of Saul have fled.
30 Cry aloud, daughter of Gallim!
Listen, Laishah!
Anathoth is miserable.
31 Madmenah has fled.
The inhabitants of Gebim have sought refuge.
32 Today he will stand at Nob,
shaking his fist at the mountain of Daughter Zion,
the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Look, the Lord God of Hosts
will chop off the branches with terrifying power,
and the tall trees will be cut down,
the high trees felled.
34 He is clearing the thickets of the forest with an ax,
and Lebanon with its majesty will fall.
