12 Yahweh says: “Though they be in full strength, and likewise many, even so they will be cut down, and he shall pass away. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. 13 Now I will break his yoke from off you, and will burst your bonds 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.”
