The LORD sent an angel, who cut off all the mighty men of valor, and the leaders and captains, in the camp of the king of Ashur. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. When he was come into the house of his god, those who came forth from his own bowels killed him there with the sword.
Therefore it will happen that, when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Tziyon and on Yerushalayim, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Ashur, and the insolence of his haughty looks.
Woe to you who destroy, but you weren't destroyed; and who betray, but nobody betrayed you! When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed; and when you have made an end of betrayal, you will be betrayed.
You shall fall on the mountains of Yisra'el, you, and all your hordes, and the peoples who are with you: I will give you to the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the animals of the field to be devoured.
He will be our shalom when Ashur invades our land, and when he marches through our fortresses, then we will raise against him seven shepherds, and eight leaders of men.
They will rule the land of Ashur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in its gates. He will deliver us from the Ashur, when he invades our land, and when he marches within our border.
He will pass through the sea of affliction, and will strike the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile 1 will dry up; and the pride of Ashur will be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt will depart.
