Chapter 33

Overthrow of Assyria

Woe to you, O destroyer,
    who yourself have not been destroyed!
Woe to you, O traitor,
    who yourself have not been betrayed!
When you have finished destroying,
    you yourself will be destroyed;
when you have ceased betraying,
    you yourself will be betrayed.
Lord, be merciful to us,
    for we have placed our hope in you.
Be our strength every morning,
    our salvation in times of trouble.
At the sound of tumult, peoples flee;
    nations scatter when they behold your majesty.
