Promise of Judah’s Deliverance

12 This is what the Lord says:

Though they are strong[a] and numerous,
they will still be mowed down,
and he[b] will pass away.
Though I have punished you,[c](A)
I will punish you no longer.(B)
13 For I will now break off his yoke from you
and tear off your shackles.

The Assyrian King’s Demise

14 The Lord has issued an order concerning you:

There will be no offspring
to carry on your name.[d](C)
I will eliminate the carved idol and cast image
from the house of your gods;(D)
I will prepare your grave,
for you are contemptible.
