23I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the broom of destruction, says Yahweh of Hosts.
24Yahweh of Hosts has sworn, saying, Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder.
26This is the purpose that is purposed on the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out on all the nations.
27For Yahweh of Hosts has purposed, and who shall annul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
29Don`t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent`s root shall come forth an adder, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
