20 It will be on that day that what is left of Israel, and those of Jacob who were<br />
saved, will no longer continue to trust in those who harmed them. Instead, they will<br />
place their trust on God, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. 21 What is left of Jacob will be<br />
upon the God who is strong. 22 If the people of Israel are like the sand of the sea, the<br />
remnant of them will be saved, for he will finish the word and make it brief in<br />
righteousness. 23 For God will create a brief word in the entire inhabited world.<br />
24 Because of this, thus says the Lord of sabaóth: "Do not be afraid, O my people<br />
who are inhabitants in Zion, of the Assyrians, that he will attack you with a rod. For I<br />
am bringing a plague upon you in order to see the way of Egypt. 25 For in just a little<br />
while, the wrath will cease; my anger will be against their council." 26 God will wake up<br />
against them according to the plague of Midian, in the place of oppression. His anger<br />
will be on the way to the sea, as far as the way to Egypt. 27 It will be on that day that<br />
the fear of him will be removed from you, and his yoke from your shoulder; the yoke<br />
will be eliminated from your shoulders.<br />
28 For he will arrive at the city of Ai, will pass on to Migron, A and will place his<br />
equipment in Michmash. 29 He will pass through the valley and arrive at Ai; fear will<br />
seize Ramah, the city of Saul. 30 The daughter of Gallim will flee. Laishah will listen; she<br />
will listen in Anathoth. 31 Madmenah was astonished, as well as those who inhabit<br />
Gebim. 32 Encourage them to remain in the way today. With your hand, encourage the<br />
mountain, the daughter of Zion, and the hills which are in Jerusalem.<br />
33 For behold, the Master, the Lord of sabaóth, will disturb the glorious ones with<br />
strength. Those who are exalted with pride will be crushed, and the exalted will be<br />
humiliated. 34 The exalted will fall by the sword, and Lebanon will fall with the exalted.<br />
Isaiah 11<br />
1 A rod will come out of the root of Jesse, and a bloom will spring up from the root.<br />
2 The spirit of God will rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of<br />
counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and godliness; 3 the spirit of the fear of<br />
God will fill him. He will not judge on the basis of opinion or reprove on the basis of<br />
hearsay, 4 but he will judge the case of a humble man and will reprove the humble of<br />
the earth. He will attack the earth with the word of his mouth and slay the godless man<br />
with breath through his lips. 5 He will gird his waist with righteousness and cover his<br />
sides with truth.<br />
