4 Like a shepherd
taking care of his sheep,
this ruler will lead
and care for his people
by the power and glorious name
of the Lord his God.
His people will live securely,
and the whole earth will know

Let Assyria attack our country
and our palaces.
We will counterattack,
led by a number of rulers
