29 Because you rage against me and because your pride has reached my ears,I will put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth.I will make you go back the same way you came.
30 Now this will be the sign for you, Hezekiah: This year you will eat what grows by itself. Next year you will eat what grows from that. But in the third year, plant seed and harvest it; plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
31 The survivors of Judah’s family who have escaped will put down roots and bear fruit above.
32 Those who remain will go out from Jerusalem, and those who survive will go out from Mount Zion. The zeal of the Lord of heavenly forces will do this.
33 Therefore, the Lord says this about Assyria’s king: He won’t enter this city. He won’t shoot a single arrow here. He won’t come near the city with a shield. He won’t build a ramp to besiege it.
34 He’ll go back by the same way he came. He won’t enter this city, declares the Lord.
35 I will defend this city and save it for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.
