Isaiah 10:21-30

²¹Those Israelis will return to their mighty God.

²²Now, the people of Israel are as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore, but only a few of them will return from the countries to which they were exiled. Yahweh has decided to destroy most of the Israelis and that is what he must do because he is completely just/righteous.

²³Yes, the Commander of the armies of angels has already decided to destroy the entire land of Israel.

²⁴This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “My people in Jerusalem, do not be afraid of the army of Assyria when they beat you with rods and clubs, like the men of Egypt did to your ancestors long ago.

²⁵Soon I will no longer be angry with you, and then I will be angry with the people of Assyria and destroy them!”

²⁶The Commander of the armies of angels will whip them. He will do to them like he did when he helped Gideon and his 300 soldiers to defeat the army of the Midian people-group, and like he did when he showed his mighty power MTY by causing the army of Egypt to drown in the Red Sea.

²⁷Some day, Yahweh will cause the army of Assyria to stop oppressing you, his people; he will end your suffering and your being slaves of the people of Assyria MET; he will take away the load that you people of Judah have been carrying, and cause things to go well for you.

²⁸The army of Assyria will enter northern Judah near Aiath town, they will go through Migron town and store their supplies at Micmash town north of Jerusalem.

²⁹They will cross through a mountain pass and set up their tents at Geba town. People in Ramah town will tremble because of being afraid. The people of Gibeah town, where King Saul was born, will all run away.

³⁰You people of Gallim town will cry out for help. You will shout to the people of Laish city near Jerusalem to warn them! The people of Anathoth town will suffer a lot.
