Judgment on Israel’s Enemies

When the Assyrian comes into our land,
And when he treads in our palaces,
Then we will raise against him
Seven shepherds and eight princely men.
⁶They shall ^[a]waste with the sword the land of Assyria,
And the land of ^(B)Nimrod at its entrances;
Thus He shall ^(C)deliver us from the Assyrian,
When he comes into our land
And when he treads within our borders.

Shall be in the midst of many peoples,
^(E)Like dew from the Lord,
Like showers on the grass,
That ^[b]tarry for no man
Nor ^[c]wait for the sons of men.
⁸And the remnant of Jacob
Shall be among the Gentiles,
In the midst of many peoples,
Like a ^(F)lion among the beasts of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Who, if he passes through,
Both treads down and tears in pieces,
And none can deliver.
