20 And it shall come to pass in that day that those who shall be left of Israel and those who shall be left of the house of Jacob shall no more again stay upon him that smote them, but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. 21 The remnant shall become converted, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. 22 For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet the remnant of them shall become converted; when the consumption comes to an end, righteousness shall overflow. 23 For the Lord GOD of the hosts shall make a consumption and an end in the midst of all the land.
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of the hosts, O my people, dweller of Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian; he shall smite thee with a rod and shall lift up his stick against thee by the way of Egypt; 25 yet from now until a very little while the indignation and my anger shall cease, to make an end of them. 26 And the LORD of the hosts shall raise up a scourge against him as the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb and shall raise up his rod upon the sea, by the way of Egypt. 27 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 consumed in the presence of the anointing.
28 He is come to Aiath; he is passed unto Migron; in Michmash he shall number his army: 29 They are gone over the fords; they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled. 30 Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim; Laish cause poor Anathoth to hear thee. 31 Madmenah is in upheaval; the inhabitants of Gebim shall gather themselves together. 32 Even yet shall come a day when he shall rest at Nob; he shall raise his hand unto the mountain of the daughter of Zion unto the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Behold, the Lord, the LORD of the hosts, shall lop the bough with force, and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled. 34 And he shall cut down the thickness of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by force.
