Context of Isaiah 10:32
30Cry aloud, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! Anathoth is miserable. 31Madmenah has fled. The inhabitants of Gebim have sought refuge. Today the Assyrians will stand at Nob, shaking their fists at the mountain of Daughter Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. 33Look, the Lord God of Armies will chop off the branches with terrifying power, and the tall trees will be cut down, the high trees felled. 34He is clearing the thickets of the forest with an ax, and Lebanon with its majesty will fall.
