Assyria » Prophecies concerning
Jehovah shall bring upon thee and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days which came not, from the day Ephraim turned away from Judah; the king of Assur. And it was in that day Jehovah shall hiss for the fly which is in the extremity of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of Assur. And they shall come and rest all of them in the valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and in all the thorn hedges, and in all pastures. read more.
In that day shall Jehovah shave with a hired razor by those beyond the river, by the king of Assur, the head and the hair of the feet: and it also shall scrape off the beard. And it was in, that day a man shall preserve alive a heifer of the herd, and two sheep. And it was from the abundance of making milk he shall eat curdled milk; for curdled milk and honey shall eat all they being left in the midst of the land. And it was in that day every place shall be where shall be there a thousand vines for a thousand of silver, for sharp points and thorns shall it be. With arrows and with bows shall he come there: for sharp points and thorns shall be all the land. And all the mountains which shall be dressed with the hoe, the fear of sharp points and thorns shall not come there: and it was for the sending forth of the ox and for the treading of sheep.

For before the boy shall know to call, My father and my mother, he shall lift up the strength of Damascus and the spoil of Shomeron before the king of Assur. And Jehovah will add yet to speak to me, saying, Because this people rejected the water of Shiloh, going softly and rejoicing in Rezin and the son of Remaliah; read more.
And for this, behold Jehovah bringing up upon them the water of the river, strong and many, the king of Assur and his glory: and he came up over all his channels and he went over all his banks. And he went in Judah; and he overflowed and passed through; he will reach even to the neck; and the expansion of his wings was the fulness of the land, God with us. Make friendship, ye peoples, and be broken in pieces; and give ear, every land from afar; be girded and be broken in pieces; be girded and be broken in pieces. Counsel ye, counsel, and it shall be dispersed; speak the word and it shall not stand: for God is with us.

Wo to Assur the rod of mine anger, and that rod in their hand, my wrath. Against a polluted nation will I send him, and upon a people of my outpouring will I command him to spoil a spoil and to plunder a plunder, and to set them a treading down as the clay of the streets. And he will not thus purpose, and his heart will not reckon thus; for in his heart to destroy and to cut off nations not few. read more.
For he will say, Are not my chiefs united together kings? Is not as Carchemish, Calno? if not as Arpad, Hamath? if not as Damascus, Shomeron? As my hand found for the kingdoms of nothing, and their carved images from Jerusalem and from Shomeron; Is it not according to what I did to Shomeron and to her nothings, thus will I do to Jerusalem and to her images? And it was when the Lord will complete all his work upon mount Zion and upon Jerusalem, I will review upon the fruit of the great heart of the king of Assur and upon the glory of his eyes lifted up. For he said, By strength of my hand I did, and by my wisdom, for I was discreet: and I will remove the bounds of the people, and their things prepared I plundered, and I will bring down as a strong one the inhabitants. And my hand will find as a nest for the strength of the peoples: and as he gathering eggs left, I gathered all the land; and there was not moving the wing, and opening wide the mouth, and peeping. Shall the axe vaunt itself against him hewing with it? shall the saw magnify itself against him moving it up and down? as the rod moving up and down with those lifting it up; as the lifting up of the rod not wood. For this shall Jehovah, the Lord of armies send among his fatnesses leanness; and under his glory he shall burn a burning as the burning of fire. And the light of Israel was for a fire, and his Holy for a flame: and he burnt and consumed his thorns, and his sharp points in one day: And the glory of his forest and his Carmel, from the soul and even to the flesh, he shall finish, and it was as he fainting pined away. And the remainder of the wood of his forest shall be of number, and a boy shall write them. And it was in that day the remainder of Israel shall no more add, and the escaping of the house of Jacob, to lean upon him smiting them; and were leaning upon Jehovah the holy of Israel in truth. The remainder shall turn back the remainder of Jacob to the mighty God. For if my people Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, the remnant shall turn back among them: a consumption decided overflowing justice. For the Lord Jehovah of armies made a completion, and decided it in the midst of all the land. For this, thus said the Lord Jehovah of armies, Thou my people dwelling in Zion shalt not fear from Assur: with the rod he shall strike thee and he will lift up his rod upon thee, in the way of Egypt. For yet a very little and wrath finished, and mine anger, in their destruction. And Jehovah of armies roused up for him a scourge according to the blow of Midian at the rock Oreb: and his rod upon the sea, and he lifted it up in the way of Egypt And it was in that day, his burden shall remove from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke was lightened from the face of the anointing. He came upon Aioth, he passed through into Migron; at Michmash he will deposit his vessels. They passed through the passage the hill a lodging to us; Ramesh trembled; the hill of Saul fled. Cry aloud with thy voice, thou daughter of Gallim: hearken to Irish, Anathoth answered. Madmenah moved; they dwelling in Gebim fled for safety. Yet the day to stand in Nob: his hand will shake the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. Behold the Lord Jehovah of armies dividing the bough with sudden violence: and the high of stature hewn down, and the lofty shall be humbled. And he cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall with a lofty one.
For he will say, Are not my chiefs united together kings? Is not as Carchemish, Calno? if not as Arpad, Hamath? if not as Damascus, Shomeron? As my hand found for the kingdoms of nothing, and their carved images from Jerusalem and from Shomeron; Is it not according to what I did to Shomeron and to her nothings, thus will I do to Jerusalem and to her images?

Jehovah of armies sware, saying, If not as I purposed thus it was, and as I counseled, this shall stand: To break Assur in my land, and upon my mountain I will tread him down: and his yoke was removed from off them, and his burden shall remove from off their shoulder. This the counsel being counseled upon all the land: and this the hand stretched out upon all the nations. read more.

In that day shall be a highway from Egypt to Assur, and Assur came into Egypt, and Egypt into Assur, and the Egyptians served with Assur. In that day Israel shall be the third to Egypt and to Assur, and a blessing in the midst of the land: Whom Jehovah of armies blest him, saying, Blessed my people of Egypt, and the work of my hand, Assur, and my inheritance Israel.
Behold, the name of Jehovah coming from far off, burning his wrath, and its lifting up heavy: his lips they were full of anger, and his tongue as consuming fire: And his spirit as the torrent overflowing, shall divide even to the neck, to shake the nations in the sieve of ruin: and a curb upon the cheeks of the people, causing to err. The song shall be to you as by night, consecrating a festival and gladness of heart, as he going with a pipe to come into the mountain of Jehovah to the rock of Israel. read more.
And Jehovah caused the swelling of his voice to be heard, and he will cause the letting down of his arm to be seen in the anger of his wrath, and the flame of a consuming fire, violent rain and tempest, and the stone of hail, For from the voice of Jehovah shall Assur be broken down, he will smite with a rod. And it was every one passing by the rod of foundation which Jehovah shall cause to rest upon him, with drums and with harps: and in battles of moving to and fro shall he war with with it. For tophet was set in order from yesterday; also it was prepared; for the king, he made deep, he made broad, its pile fire and much wood; the breath of Jehovah as a torrent of pitch burned upon it

I dug and drank water; and I will dry up with the sole of my footstep all the rivers of Egypt, Didst thou not hear to remoteness I did it? from days of old and I formed it? now did I bring it and thou shalt be to lay waste fortified cities into straits.
