Isaiah 14:24-32

24The LORD of Hosts has sworn:

“Surely, as I have planned, so will it be;as I have purposed, so will it stand.25I will break Assyria in My land;I will trample him on My mountain.His yoke will be taken off My people,and his burden removed from their shoulders.”

26This is the plan devised for the whole earth,and this is the hand stretched out over all the nations.27The LORD of Hosts has purposed,and who can thwart Him?His hand is outstretched,so who can turn it back?

28In the year that King Ahaz died, this burden was received:

29Do not rejoice, all you Philistines,that the rod that struck you is broken.For a viper will spring from the root of the snake,and a flying serpent from its egg.30Then the firstborn of the poor will find pasture,and the needy will lie down in safety,but I will kill your root by famine,and your remnant will be slain.

31Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city!Melt away, all you Philistines!For a cloud of smoke comes from the north,and there are no stragglers in its ranks.32What answer will be givento the envoys of that nation?“The LORD has founded Zion,where His afflicted people will find refuge.”
