17I, Yahweh, who am like MET a light for the people of Israel, will be the fire; I, the Holy One, will be like a flame. The soldiers of Assyria are like MET thorns and briers, and I will burn them up in one night.
18There are glorious forests and fertile farmlands in Assyria, but I will completely destroy them; they will be like SIM a very sick person who shrivels up and then dies.
19There will be very few trees left in those forests; even a child will be able to count them.”
20In the future there will be only a few people left in Israel; not many descendants of Jacob will still be alive. But they will no longer rely on the king of Assyria, the king of the nation that tried to destroy them. Instead, they will faithfully/sincerely trust in Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel.
