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

²⁷ In that day^(A) their burden^(B) will be lifted from your shoulders,
    their yoke^(C) from your neck;^(D)
the yoke^(E) will be broken
    because you have grown so fat.^[a]

How the oppressor^(C) has come to an end!
    How his fury^[a] has ended!
