Isaiah 7:20

Assyria, The Lord's Instrument

¹⁹ And they shall all of them come and settle down - In the desolate torrent-valleys, And in the rents of the crags, - And on all the thorn-bushes, And on all the pastures, ²⁰ In that day, will My Lord shave, with hired razor, even with them of the lands over the River Euphrates, with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet, - yea, even the beard, will it sweep off. ²¹ And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall keep alive a young cow and two sheep.
