17 But the Lord will make more trouble for your people and your kingdom than any of you have known since Israel broke away from Judah. He will even bring the king of Assyria to attack you.
18 When that time comes, the Lord will whistle, and armies will come from Egypt like flies and from Assyria like bees.
19 They will settle everywhere—in the deep valleys and between the rocks, on every thornbush and all over the pastureland.
20 The Lord will pay the king of Assyria to bring a razor from across the Euphrates River and shave your head and every hair on your body, including your beard.
21 Anyone who is able to save only one young cow and two sheep,
22 will have enough milk to make yogurt. In fact, everyone left in the land will eat yogurt and honey.
23 Vineyards that had 1,000 vines and were worth 1,000 pieces of silver will turn into thorn patches.
