12 Thus says Yahweh,

“Though they are at full strength and likewise many,
Even so, they will be (A)cut off and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you (B)no longer.
13 So now, I will (C)break his yoke bar from upon you,
And I will break your bands apart.”

The Lord’s Rebuke to Assyria

12 This is what the Lord says:
“No matter how strong they are,[a]
    and no matter how numerous,
        they will surely be annihilated[b] and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,[c]
    I will do so no more.
13 Now I will break off Assyria’s[d] yoke from you,
    and tear apart your shackles.”
