“My people who live in Zion,^(A)
    do not be afraid^(B) of the Assyrians,
who beat^(C) you with a rod^(D)
    and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did.
²⁵ Very soon^(E) my anger against you will end
    and my wrath^(F) will be directed to their destruction.^(G)”

²⁶ The Lord Almighty will lash^(H) them with a whip,
    as when he struck down Midian^(I) at the rock of Oreb;
and he will raise his staff^(J) over the waters,^(K)
    as he did in Egypt.
