Isaiah 10:7                                    510                                     Isaiah 11:7

            them vnder feete like the mire in the streete. saith ye Lord God of hostes, O my people, that
            7 But he thinketh not so, neither doeth his heart  dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of Asshur: he shall
            esteeme it so: but he imagineth to destroy and   smite thee with a rod, and shall lift vp his staffe
            to cut off not a fewe nations.  8  For he sayeth,  against thee after the maner of Egypt:  25 But yet a
            Are not my princes altogether Kings?    9  Is not  very litle time, and the wrath shall be consumed,
            Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad?   and mine anger in their destruction.   26  And ye
            Is not Samaria as Damascus?     10  Like as mine  Lord of hostes shall raise vp a scourge for him,
            hand hath founde the kingdomes of the idoles,    according to the plague of Midian in the rocke
            seeing their idoles were aboue Ierusalem, and    Oreb: and as his staffe was vpon the Sea, so he
            aboue Samaria:   11  Shall not I, as I haue done  will lift it vp after the maner of Egypt.  27 And at
            to Samaria, and to the idoles thereof, so doe to
            Ierusalem and to the idoles thereof?  12 But when  that day shall his burden be taken away from off
            the Lord hath accomplished all his worke vpon    thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy necke:
            mount Zion and Ierusalem, I will visite the fruite  and the yoke shalbe destroied because of the
            of the proude heart of the King of Asshur, and his anoynting.  28  He is come to Aiath: he is passed
            glorious and proud lookes,  13 Because he said, By into Migron: at Michmash shall he lay vp his
            ye power of mine owne hand haue I done it, and armour.      29  They haue gone ouer the foorde:
            by my wisdome, because I am wise: therefore I they lodged in the lodging at Geba: Ramah is

            downe the inhabitants like a valiant man.  14  And poore Anathoth.  31  Madmenah is remoued: the
            mine hand hath found as a nest the riches of the inhabitants of Gebim haue gathered themselues
            people, and as one gathereth egges that are left,  together.  32  Yet there is a time that he will stay
            so haue I gathered all the earth: and there was  at Nob: he shall lift vp his hand towarde the
            none to mooue the wing or to open the mouth, or  mount of the daughter Zion, the hill of Ierusalem.
            to whisper.  15 Shall the axe boast it selfe against  33 Beholde, the Lord God of hostes shall cut off the
            him that heweth therewith? or shall the sawe bough with feare, and they of high stature shalbe
            exalt it selfe against him that moueth it? as if  cut off, and the hie shalbe humbled.  34  And he
            the rod shoulde lift vp it selfe against him that shall cut away the thicke places of the forest with
            taketh it vp, or the staffe should exalt it selfe, as yron, and Lebanon shall haue a mightie fall.
            it were no wood.  16 Therefore shall the Lord God
            of hostes send amog his fat men, leannes, and                           11
            vnder his glorie he shall kindle a burning, like the  1

            burning of fire.  17  And the light of Israel shalbe  stocke of Ishai, and a grasse shall growe out of
            as a fire, and the Holy one thereof as a flame,  his rootes.  2  And the Spirite of the Lord shall
            and it shall burne, and deuoure his thornes and  rest vpon him: the Spirite of wisedome and vn-
            his briers in one day:  18  And shall consume the  derstanding, the Spirite of counsell and strength,
            glory of his forest, and of his fruitfull fieldes both
            soule and flesh: and he shalbe as ye fainting of  the Spirite of knowledge, and of the feare of the
                                                                   3

            of his forest shalbe fewe, that a childe may tell  of the Lord: for he shall not iudge after the sight
            them.  20  And at that day shall the remnant of  of his eies, neither reproue by ye hearing of his
            Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of  eares.  4  But with righteousnesse shall he iudge
            Iaakob, stay no more vpon him that smote them,   the poore, and with equitie shall he reprooue
            but shall stay vpon ye Lord, ye Holy one of Israel  for the meeke of the earth: and he shall smite
            in trueth.  21 The remnant shall returne, euen the  the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with
                                                             the breath of his lippes shall he slay the wicked.

            though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of   faithfulnesse the girdle of his reines. The wolfe
