17 And the Light of Israel shall become a fire and His Holy One a flame, and it will [a]burn and devour [the Assyrian’s] thorns and briers in one day.(A)

19 And the remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child may make a list of them.

Footnotes

  1. Isaiah 10:17 During a single night this prophecy was fulfilled, when “the Angel of the Lord went forth and slew 185,000 in the camp of the Assyrians; and when the living arose early in the morning, behold, all these were dead bodies” (II Kings 19:35)—just when their victory over God’s people had seemed certain.
