23He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because the Lord will make a short work in all the world.
24Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, Be not afraid, my people who dwell in Sion, of the Assyrians, because he shall smite thee with a rod: for I am bringing a stroke upon thee, that thou mayest see the way of Egypt.
25For yet a little while, and the indignation shall cease: but my wrath shall be against their council.
26And God will stir up enemies against them, according to the stroke of Madiam in the place of affliction: and his wrath shall be by the way of the sea, even to the way that leads to Egypt.
