Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

21 The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, unto the Mighty God.

22 For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant (only) of it shall return; destruction is decided, overflowing in righteousness.

23 For a destruction and a decision shall the Lord GOD of Hosts make, in the midst of all the earth.

24 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Hosts, Be not afraid, my people that dwellest in Zion, of Asshur; though he smite thee with a rod, and lift up his staff against thee, in the way of Egypt.

25 For yet a very little while, and indignation shall be at an end, and mine anger shall be to their destruction.

26 And the LORD of Hosts shall stir up a scourge against him like the smiting of Midian at the rock Oreb ; and his rod is upon the sea, and he lifteth it up, in the way of Egypt.
