Context of Isaiah 10:27

25For yet a very little while and the indignation will cease, as will My anger in their destruction.” 26And the Lord of hosts will stir up a scourge for him like the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; as His rod was on the sea, so will He lift it up in the manner of Egypt. It shall come to pass in that day That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder, And his yoke from your neck, And the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil. 28He has come to Aiath, He has passed Migron; At Michmash he has attended to his equipment. 29They have gone along the ridge, They have taken up lodging at Geba. Ramah is afraid, Gibeah of Saul has fled.
