⁷ therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
    the mighty floodwaters^(A) of the Euphrates—
    the king of Assyria^(B) with all his pomp.^(C)
It will overflow all its channels,
    run over all its banks^(D)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,^(E)
    passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings^(F) will cover the breadth of your land,
    Immanuel^[a]!”^(G)

⁹ Raise the war cry,^[b](H) you nations, and be shattered!^(I)
    Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare^(J) for battle, and be shattered!
    Prepare for battle, and be shattered!
¹⁰ Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted;^(K)
    propose your plan, but it will not stand,^(L)
    for God is with us.^[c](M)
