Isaiah 10:24-26

International Children’s Bible

“My people living in Jerusalem,
    don’t be afraid of the Assyrians.
They beat you with a rod.
    They raise a stick to hurt you, as Egypt did.
²⁵ But after a short time my anger will stop.
    Then I will turn my anger to destroying them.”

²⁶ Then the Lord of heaven’s armies will beat the Assyrians with a whip.
    He will defeat them as he defeated Midian at the rock of Oreb.
He will raise his stick over the waters
    as he did in Egypt.
