10:1 Woe
to
those
who
decree
iniquitous
decrees,
and
the
writers
who
keep
writing
oppression,
10:2 to
turn
aside
the
needy
from
justice
and
to
rob
the
poor
of
my
people
of
their
right,
that
widows
may
be
their
spoil,
and
that
they
may
make
the
fatherless
their
prey!
10:3 What
will
you
do
on
the
day
of
punishment,
in
the
ruin
that
will
come
from
afar
To
whom
will
you
flee
for
help,
and
where
will
you
leave
your
wealth
10:4 Nothing
remains
but
to
crouch
among
the
prisoners
or
fall
among
the
slain.
For
all
this
his
anger
has
not
turned
away,
and
his
hand
is
stretched
out
still.
10:5 Ah,
Assyria,
the
rod
of
my
anger;
the
staff
in
their
hands
is
my
fury!
10:6 Against
a
godless
nation
I
send
him,
and
against
the
people
of
my
wrath
I
command
him,
to
take
spoil
and
seize
plunder,
and
to
tread
them
down
like
the
mire
of
the
streets.
10:7 But
he
does
not
so
intend,
and
his
heart
does
not
so
think;
but
it
is
in
his
heart
to
destroy,
and
to
cut
off
nations
not
a
few;
10:8 for
he
says:
"Are
not
my
commanders
all
kings
10:9 Is
not
Calno
like
Carchemish
Is
not
Hamath
like
Arpad
Is
not
Samaria
like
Damascus
10:10 As
my
hand
has
reached
to
the
kingdoms
of
the
idols,
whose
carved
images
were
greater
than
those
of
Jerusalem
and
Samaria,
10:11 shall
I
not
do
to
Jerusalem
and
her
idols
as
I
have
done
to
Samaria
and
her
images"
10:12 When
the
Lord
has
finished
all
his
work
on
Mount
Zion
and
on
Jerusalem,
he
will
punish
the
speech
of
the
arrogant
heart
of
the
king
of
Assyria
and
the
boastful
look
in
his
eyes.
10:13 For
he
says:
"By
the
strength
of
my
hand
I
have
done
it,
and
by
my
wisdom,
for
I
have
understanding;
I
remove
the
boundaries
of
peoples,
and
plunder
their
treasures;
like
a
bull
I
bring
down
those
who
sit
on
thrones.
10:14 My
hand
has
found
like
a
nest
the
wealth
of
the
peoples;
and
as
one
gathers
eggs
that
have
been
forsaken,
so
I
have
gathered
all
the
earth;
and
there
was
none
that
moved
a
wing
or
opened
the
mouth
or
chirped."
10:15 Shall
the
axe
boast
over
him
who
hews
with
it,
or
the
saw
magnify
itself
against
him
who
wields
it
As
if
a
rod
should
wield
him
who
lifts
it,
or
as
if
a
staff
should
lift
him
who
is
not
wood!
10:16 Therefore
the
Lord
GOD
of
hosts
will
send
wasting
sickness
among
his
stout
warriors,
and
under
his
glory
a
burning
will
be
kindled,
like
the
burning
of
fire.
10:17 The
light
of
Israel
will
become
a
fire,
and
his
Holy
One
a
flame,
and
it
will
burn
and
devour
his
thorns
and
briers
in
one
day.
10:18 The
glory
of
his
forest
and
of
his
fruitful
land
the
LORD
will
destroy,
both
soul
and
body,
and
it
will
be
as
when
a
sick
man
wastes
away.
10:19 The
remnant
of
the
trees
of
his
forest
will
be
so
few
that
a
child
can
write
them
down.
10:20 In
that
day
the
remnant
of
Israel
and
the
survivors
of
the
house
of
Jacob
will
no
more
lean
on
him
who
struck
them,
but
will
lean
on
the
LORD,
the
Holy
One
of
Israel,
in
truth.
10:21 A
remnant
will
return,
the
remnant
of
Jacob,
to
the
mighty
God.
10:22 For
though
your
people
Israel
be
as
the
sand
of
the
sea,
only
a
remnant
of
them
will
return.
Destruction
is
decreed,
overflowing
with
righteousness.
10:23 For
the
Lord
GOD
of
hosts
will
make
a
full
end,
as
decreed,
in
the
midst
of
all
the
earth.
10:24 Therefore
thus
says
the
Lord
GOD
of
hosts:
"O
my
people,
who
dwell
in
Zion,
be
not
afraid
of
the
Assyrians
when
they
strike
with
the
rod
and
lift
up
their
staff
against
you
as
the
Egyptians
did.
10:25 For
in
a
very
little
while
my
fury
will
come
to
an
end,
and
my
anger
will
be
directed
to
their
destruction.
10:26 And
the
LORD
of
hosts
will
wield
against
them
a
whip,
as
when
he
struck
Midian
at
the
rock
of
Oreb.
And
his
staff
will
be
over
the
sea,
and
he
will
lift
it
as
he
did
in
Egypt.
10:27 And
in
that
day
his
burden
will
depart
from
your
shoulder,
and
his
yoke
from
your
neck;
and
the
yoke
will
be
broken
because
of
the
fat."
10:28 He
has
come
to
Aiath;
he
has
passed
through
Migron;
at
Michmash
he
stores
his
baggage;
10:29 they
have
crossed
over
the
pass;
at
Geba
they
lodge
for
the
night;
Ramah
trembles;
Gibeah
of
Saul
has
fled.
10:30 Cry
aloud,
O
daughter
of
Gallim!
Give
attention,
O
Laishah!
O
poor
Anathoth!
10:31 Madmenah
is
in
flight;
the
inhabitants
of
Gebim
flee
for
safety.
10:32 This
very
day
he
will
halt
at
Nob;
he
will
shake
his
fist
at
the
mount
of
the
daughter
of
Zion,
the
hill
of
Jerusalem.
10:33 Behold,
the
Lord
GOD
of
hosts
will
lop
the
boughs
with
terrifying
power;
the
great
in
height
will
be
hewn
down,
and
the
lofty
will
be
brought
low.
10:34 He
will
cut
down
the
thickets
of
the
forest
with
an
axe,
and
Lebanon
will
fall
by
the
Majestic
One.
