28. “But I know your dwelling place,Your going out and your coming in,And your rage against Me.
29. Because your rage against Me and your tumultHave come up to My ears,Therefore I will put My hook in your noseAnd My bridle in your lips,And I will turn you backBy the way which you came.” ’
30. “This shall be a sign to you:You shall eat this year such as grows of itself,And the second year what springs from the same;Also in the third year sow and reap,Plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them.
31. And the remnant who have escaped of the house of JudahShall again take root downward,And bear fruit upward.
32. For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant,And those who escape from Mount Zion.The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
33. “Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the king of Assyria:‘He shall not come into this city,Nor shoot an arrow there,Nor come before it with shield,Nor build a siege mound against it.
34. By the way that he came,By the same shall he return;And he shall not come into this city,’Says the Lord.
35. ‘For I will defend this city, to save itFor My own sake and for My servant David’s sake.’ ”
