15 And the Eternal will make it easy,
    so easy for God’s people to return from Egypt and Assyria.
He will create a swath of dry land through the gulf of Egypt’s sea;
    with a wave of His hand, He will blow a scorching wind
Over the Euphrates—breaking it up into seven streams—

16 He will build a highway for the remnant of His people as they leave Assyria behind,
    just as He did for the Israelites when they left the land of Egypt.[a]
