24. Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of hosts: My people, who dwell in Zion, do not fear the Assyrian, though he strikes you with a rod, and raises his staff against you as did the Egyptians.
25. For just a brief moment more, and my wrath shall be over, and my anger shall be set for their destruction.
26. Then the Lord of hosts will raise against them a scourge such as struck Midian at the rock of Oreb; and he will raise his staff over the sea as he did in Egypt.
27. On that day,His burden shall be taken from your shoulder,and his yoke shattered from your neck.He has come up from Rimmon,
28. he has reached Aiath, passed through Migron,at Michmash he has stored his supplies.
29. He has crossed the ravine,at Geba he has camped for the night.Ramah trembles,Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30. Cry and shriek, Bath-Gallim!Hearken, Laishah! Answer her, Anathoth!
31. Madmenah is in flight,the inhabitants of Gebim seek refuge.
32. Even today he will halt at Nob,he will shake his fist at the mount of daughter Zion,the hill of Jerusalem!
