Promise of Judah’s Deliverance
12 This is what the Lord says:
Though they are strong[a] and numerous,

and he[b] will pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,[c](A)
I will afflict you no longer.(B)

and tear off your shackles.

Reassurance for God’s people
12 The Lord proclaims:
Though once they were a healthy and numerous force,
they have been cut off and have disappeared.
I have afflicted you;
I won’t afflict you further, Zion.[a]
13 Now I will break off his yoke from you
and tear off your chains.
