For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, [yet] a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness (10:22) For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land (10:23) Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. (10:24) com1 For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. (10:25) And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and [as] his rod [was] upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. (10:26) And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. (10:27) He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages: (10:28) They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled (10:29) Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth (10:30) Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee (10:31) As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand [against] the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem (10:32) Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature [shall be] hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled (10:33) And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one
(10:34)
