Isaiah 10:24-34
New American Standard Bible
24 Therefore this is what the Lord [a]God of armies says: “My people, you who dwell in (A)Zion, (B)do not fear the Assyrian [b]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 be ended and My anger will be directed toward their destruction.” 26 The Lord of armies will (F)wield a whip against him like the defeat 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 on that day, that [c]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 encampment for the night.”
(Q)Ramah is terrified, and (R)Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of (S)Gallim!
Pay attention, Laishah and [d]wretched (T)Anathoth!
31 Madmenah has fled.
The inhabitants of Gebim have sought refuge.
32 Yet today he will halt at (U)Nob;
He (V)shakes his fist at the mountain of the [e](W)daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold, the Lord, the [f]God of armies, will lop off the branches with terrifying power;
Those also who are (X)tall in stature will be cut down,
And those who are lofty will be brought low.
34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,
And (Y)Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

Isaiah 10:24-34
Lexham English Bible
24 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh of hosts:
“My people who live in Zion,
you must not be afraid of Assyria.
It beats you with the rod,
and it lifts up its staff against you as the Egyptians did.[a]
25 My indignation will come to an end in just a very little while,[b]
and my anger will be directed to their destruction.”
26 And Yahweh of hosts is going to swing a whip against him,
as when Midian was defeated at the rock of Oreb;
and his staff will be over the sea,
and he will lift him up as he did in Egypt.[c]
27 And this shall happen: on that day,
he will remove his burden from your shoulder
and his yoke from your neck,
and a yoke will be destroyed because of fat.[d]
28 He has come to Aiath,
he has passed through Migron;
at Micmash he deposited his baggage.
29 They crossed over the pass;
Geba is a place of overnight lodging for us.
Ramah trembles;
Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Daughter of Gallim, cry out with your voice;
Laishah, listen!
Anathoth is poor.[e]
31 Madmenah flees!
The inhabitants of Gebim bring themselves into safety!
32 This day[f] taking a stand[g] at Nob,
he will shake his fist at the mountain of the daughter[h] of Zion,
at the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Look! The Lord Yahweh of hosts is about to lop off the branches[i] with great power,
and the towering trees[j] will be felled,
and the tall trees[k] will be brought low.
34 And he will cut down the thickets of the forest with the axe,
and Lebanon will fall by the mighty one.

- Isaiah 10:24 Literally “in the way of Egypt”
- Isaiah 10:25 Literally “for still a little a trifle”
- Isaiah 10:26 Literally “in the way of Egypt”
- Isaiah 10:27 The meaning of this phrase is uncertain, leading to the conjecture that it belongs with the next verse and by a different word division could mean “he has gone up from Jeshimon”; alternatively, “fat” could be a metaphor for prosperity
- Isaiah 10:30 Or with different vocalization, “Answer her, Anathoth!” which fits the parallelism better
- Isaiah 10:32 Literally “Yet today”
- Isaiah 10:32 Literally “to stand”
