From that land he went to Ashshur and built Ninewĕh, and Reḥoḇoth Ir, and Kelaḥ,
And Sanḥĕriḇ sovereign of Ashshur broke camp and went away, and turned back, and remained in Ninewĕh.
“Woe to Ashshur, the rod of My displeasure and the staff in whose hand is My displeasure.
This is the message which came in the year that Sovereign Aḥaz died:
The message concerning Mo’aḇ. Because in the night Ar of Mo’aḇ was laid waste, was silenced! Because in the night Qir of Mo’aḇ was laid waste, was silenced!
The message concerning Mitsrayim. See, יהוה is riding on a swift cloud, and He shall come into Mitsrayim. And the idols of Mitsrayim shall tremble at His presence, and the heart of Mitsrayim melt in its midst.
The message concerning the Wilderness of the Sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweep on, so it comes from the wilderness, from an awesome land.
The message concerning the Valley of Vision. What troubles you now, that you have all gone up to the house-tops,
The message concerning Tsor. Howl, you ships of Tarshish! For it has been destroyed, without house, without harbour. From the land of Kittim it has been revealed to them.
“The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many lands and great reigns, of battle and of evil and of pestilence.
“Arise, go to Ninewĕh, the great city, and cry out against it, for their evils have come up before Me.”
And Ninewĕh of old was like a pool of water, now they flee away. “Stop! Stop!” they cry, but no one turns back.
And He shall stretch out His hand against the north, and destroy Ashshur, and make Ninewĕh a waste, as dry as a wilderness.
The message of the word of יהוה against the land of Ḥaḏraḵ, and Dammeseq its resting place – when the eye of man and all the tribes of Yisra’ĕl are on יהוה –
