⁷ Now therefore, behold, the Lord brings up over them
The waters of ^[a]the River, strong and mighty—
The king of Assyria and all his glory;
He will ^[b]go up over all his channels
And go over all his banks.

²³ They will lay hold on bow and spear;
They are cruel and have no mercy;
Their voice ^(A)roars like the sea;
And they ride on horses,
As men of war set in array against you, O daughter of Zion.”
