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.
31The people of Madmenah town north of Jerusalem will all be running away, and the people of Gebim town close to Jerusalem will be trying to hide.
32The soldiers of Assyria will stop at Nob city outside Jerusalem. They will shake their fists as they threaten the people on Zion Hill in Jerusalem.
33But listen to this! The Commander of the armies of angels with his great power will destroy MET the mighty army of Assyria. It is as though they are a huge tree MET that he will cut down.
34He will destroy the soldiers of Assyria like men use big axes to cut down the tall trees in the forests of Lebanon.
