17. The LORD will bring on you, on your people, and on your father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of ASSYRIA.

18. It will happen in that day that the LORD will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of ASSYRIA.

19. They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.

20. In that day the Lord will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of ASSYRIA, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.

21. It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep;

22. and it shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter: for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left within the land.

23. It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels, shall be for briers and thorns.

24. People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.

25. All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending out of oxen, and for the treading of sheep."

4. For before the child knows how to say, 'My father,' and, 'My mother,' the riches of Damascus and the plunder of Samaria will be carried away by the king of ASSYRIA."

5. The LORD spoke to me yet again, saying,

6. "Because this people have refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son;

7. now therefore, behold, the Lord brings upon them the mighty flood waters of the River: the king of ASSYRIA and all his glory. It will come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks.

8. It will sweep onward into Judah. It will overflow and pass through; it will reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of its wings will fill the width of your land, Immanuel.

9. Make an uproar, you peoples, and be broken in pieces! Listen, all you from far countries: dress for battle, and be shattered! Dress for battle, and be shattered!

10. Take counsel together, and it will be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it will not stand: for God is with us."

5. Alas ASSYRIAn, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation!

6. I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me will I give him a command to take the plunder and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

7. However he doesn't mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.

8. For he says, "Aren't all of my princes kings?

9. Isn't Calno like Carchemish? Isn't Hamath like Arpad? Isn't Samaria like Damascus?"

10. As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria;

11. shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?

12. Therefore it will happen that, when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of ASSYRIA, and the insolence of his haughty looks.

13. For he has said, "By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I have understanding: and I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.

14. My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped."

15. Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.

16. Therefore the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.

17. The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.

18. He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.

19. The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.

20. It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on The LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

21. A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.

22. For though your people, Israel, are like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.

23. For the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, will make a full end, and that determined, throughout all the earth.

24. Therefore the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, says "My people who dwell in Zion, don't be afraid of the ASSYRIAn, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.

25. For yet a very little while, and the indignation against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his destruction."

26. The LORD of Armies will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against Egypt.

27. It will happen in that day, that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing oil.

28. He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.

29. They have gone over the pass. They have taken up their lodging at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.

30. Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! You poor Anathoth!

31. Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.

32. This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

33. Behold, the Lord, the LORD of Hosts, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.

34. He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

24. The LORD of Armies has sworn, saying, "Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:

25. that I will break the ASSYRIAn in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.

26. This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.

27. For the LORD of Hosts has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?"

28. This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.

23. In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to ASSYRIA, and the ASSYRIAn shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into ASSYRIA; and the Egyptians will worship with the ASSYRIAns.

24. In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with ASSYRIA, a blessing within the earth;

25. because the LORD of Hosts has blessed them, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, ASSYRIA the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance."

1. In the year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of ASSYRIA sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it;

2. at that time the LORD spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, "Go, and loosen the sackcloth from off your waist, and take your shoes from off your feet." He did so, walking naked and barefoot.

3. The LORD said, "As my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder concerning Egypt and concerning Ethiopia,

4. so the king of ASSYRIA will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, and with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.

5. They will be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

6. The inhabitants of this coast land will say in that day, 'Behold, this is our expectation, where we fled for help to be delivered from the king of ASSYRIA. And we, how will we escape?'"
