26 The Lord who rules over all will beat them with a whip. He will strike them down as he struck Midian down at the rock of Oreb. And he will reach his wooden staff out over the waters. That's what he did in Egypt.
27 People of Zion, in days to come he will lift the heavy load of the Assyrians from your shoulders. He will remove their yokes from your necks. They will be broken because you have become so strong.
28 The Assyrian army has entered the town of Aiath. They have passed through Migron. They have stored up supplies at Micmash.
29 They have marched through the pass there. They said, "Let's camp for the night at Geba." The people of Ramah tremble with fear. Those who live in Gibeah of Saul run away.
30 Town of Gallim, cry out! Laishah, listen! Poor Anathoth!
31 The people of Madmenah are running away. Those who live in Gebim are hiding.
32 Today the Assyrians have stopped at Nob. They are shaking their fists at Mount Zion in the city of Jerusalem.
