Isaiah 10:24-26

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁴ So this is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘My people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian army. They will hurt you, like someone who hits you with a heavy stick. They will be cruel to you like the people in Egypt were long ago. ²⁵ But soon I will be angry with you no longer. Instead, I will be angry with the Assyrians, and I will be ready to destroy them.’

²⁶ Yes, the Lord Almighty will punish the Assyrians, like someone who uses a whip to beat them. That is how he destroyed the Midianites at the Rock of Oreb.^[a] He will hold his stick over the sea. He will lift it up as he did in Egypt.
