The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it be: and as I have purposed, 25So shall it fall out: That I will destroy the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: and his yoke shall be taken away from them, and his burden shall be taken off their shoulder. 26This is the counsel, that I have purposed upon all the earth, and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all nations. 27For the Lord of hosts hath decreed, and who can disannul it? and his hand is stretched out: and who shall turn it away?
