So the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the power of King Sennacherib of Assyria and from the power of all others. He gave them rest[fn] on every side.

who will survive from Assyria,
as there was for Israel
when they came up from the land of Egypt.
I will break Assyria in my land;
I will tread him down on my mountain.

and his burden will be removed from their shoulders.

a people who no longer exist.

a great ram’s horn will be blown,
and those lost in the land of Assyria will come,
as well as those dispersed in the land of Egypt;
and they will worship the LORD
at Jerusalem on the holy mountain.
Then Assyria will fall,
but not by human sword;
a sword will devour him,
but not one made by man.
He will flee from the sword;
his young men will be put to forced labor.
