23. And have made it for a possession of a bittern, And ponds of waters, And daubed it with the mire of destruction, The affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts!
24. Sworn hath Jehovah of Hosts, saying, `As I thought--so hath it not been? And as I counselled--it standeth;
25. To break Asshur in My land, And on My mountains I tread him down, And turned from off them hath his yoke, Yea, his burden from off their shoulder turneth aside.
26. This [is] the counsel that is counselled for all the earth, And this [is] the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
27. For Jehovah of Hosts hath purposed, And who doth make void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who doth turn it back?'
