God Will Punish Assyria
24 The Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] has ·made this promise [sworn this oath]:
“These things will happen exactly as I planned them;
they will happen exactly as I ·set them up [purposed them].
25 I will ·destroy [crush; break] ·the king of Assyria [L Assyria] in my ·country [land];
I will trample him on my mountains.
His yoke [C oppressive rule] will be taken off my people,
And his burden will be removed from their shoulders.
26 “This is what I plan to do for all the earth.
And this is the hand that I have ·raised [stretched out] over all nations.”
27 When the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] makes a plan,
·no one [L who…?] can stop it.
When the Lord ·raises his hand to punish people [L stretches out his hand],
·no one [L who…?] can stop it.

New American Standard Bible
Judgment on Assyria
24 The Lord of armies has sworn, saying, “Certainly, (A)just as I have intended, so it has happened, and just as I have planned, so it will stand, 25 to (B)break Assyria in My land, and I will trample him on My mountains. Then his (C)yoke will be removed from them, and his burden removed from their shoulders. 26 This is the (D)plan [a]devised against the entire earth; and this is the (E)hand that is stretched out against all the nations. 27 For (F)the Lord of armies has planned, and who can frustrate it? And as for His stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?”
