6They will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
         The land of Nimrod at its entrances;
         And He will deliver us from the Assyrian
         When he attacks our land
         And when he tramples our territory.

7Then the remnant of Jacob
         Will be among many peoples
         Like dew from the LORD,
         Like showers on vegetation
         Which do not wait for man
         Or delay for the sons of men.

8The remnant of Jacob
         Will be among the nations,
         Among many peoples
         Like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
         Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
         Which, if he passes through,
         Tramples down and tears,
         And there is none to rescue.

9Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries,
         And all your enemies will be cut off.

10“It will be in that day,” declares the LORD,
         “That I will cut off your horses from among you
         And destroy your chariots.

11“I will also cut off the cities of your land
         And tear down all your fortifications.

12“I will cut off sorceries from your hand,
         And you will have fortune-tellers no more.

13“I will cut off your carved images
         And your sacred pillars from among you,
         So that you will no longer bow down
         To the work of your hands.

14“I will root out your Asherim from among you
         And destroy your cities.

15“And I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath
         On the nations which have not obeyed.”
