Isaiah 31:4-9
4For thus hath the LORDH3068 spokenH559 to me, As the lionH738 and the young lionH3715 roaringH1897 on his preyH2964, when a multitudeH4393 of shepherdsH7462 is called forthH7121 against him, he will not be afraidH2865 of their voiceH6963, nor abaseH6031 himself for the noiseH1995 of them: so shall the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 come downH3381 to fightH6633 for mountH2022 ZionH6726, and for its hillH1389.1 5As birdsH6833 flyingH5774, so will the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 defendH1598 JerusalemH3389; defendingH1598 also he will deliverH5337 it; and passing overH6452 he will preserveH4422 it.
6TurnH7725 ye to him from whom the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 have deeplyH6009 revoltedH5627. 7For in that dayH3117 every manH376 shall cast awayH3988 his idolsH457 of silverH3701, and his idolsH457 of goldH2091, which your own handsH3027 have madeH6213 to you for a sinH2399.2 8Then shall the AssyrianH804 fallH5307 with the swordH2719, not of a mighty manH376; and the swordH2719, not of a mean manH120, shall devourH398 him: but he shall fleeH5127 fromH6440 the swordH2719, and his young menH970 shall become forced labourersH4522.34 9And he shall pass overH5674 to his strong holdH5553 for fearH4032, and his princesH8269 shall be afraidH2865 of the ensignH5251, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, whose fireH217 is in ZionH6726, and his furnaceH8574 in JerusalemH3389.56
