God Will Also Punish Assyria

²⁴ The Lord All-Powerful made this promise: “This will happen exactly as I meant for it to happen. It will happen just the way I planned. ²⁵ I will destroy the king of Assyria in my country. I will walk on him on my mountains. He forced my people to be his slaves; he put a yoke on their necks. But that pole will be taken off Judah’s neck, and that burden will be removed. ²⁶ This is what I plan to do for this land. I will use my power to punish all those nations.”
