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?”

An Oracle concerning Assyria

24 The Lord of hosts has sworn:
As I have designed,
    so shall it be,
and as I have planned,
    so shall it come to pass:(A)

his yoke shall be removed from them
    and his burden from their shoulders.(B)
26 This is the plan that is planned
    concerning the whole earth,
and this is the hand that is stretched out
    over all the nations.(C)

His hand is stretched out,
    and who will turn it back?(D)
