And the (A)Assyrian will fall by a sword not wielded by a man,
And a (B)sword not of man will devour him.
So he will [a](C)not escape the sword,
And his young men will become (D)forced laborers.
“His (E)rock will pass away because of panic,
And his officers will be terrified by the (F)flag,”
Declares the Lord, whose (G)fire is in Zion and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

“Assyria(A) will fall by no human sword;
    a sword, not of mortals, will devour(B) them.
They will flee before the sword
    and their young men will be put to forced labor.(C)
Their stronghold(D) will fall because of terror;
    at the sight of the battle standard(E) their commanders will panic,(F)
declares the Lord,
    whose fire(G) is in Zion,
    whose furnace(H) is in Jerusalem.
