And the (A)Assyrian will fall by a sword not wielded by a man,
And a (B)sword not of man will devour him.
So he will [a](C)not escape the sword,
And his young men will become (D)forced laborers.
“His (E)rock will pass away because of panic,
And his officers will be terrified by the (F)flag,”
Declares the Lord, whose (G)fire is in Zion and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

  1. Isaiah 31:8 Lit flee

“Then Assyria will fall by a sword
    that is not from human beings only[a]
        a sword not wielded by mortal beings will devour them.
They will flee from the sword,
    and their young men will be put to forced labor.
Their stronghold will vanish by reason of terror,
    and their commanders will be filled with alarm
        because of the battle standard,”

declares the Lord, whose fire is in Zion
    and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
