31Doom to those who go off to Egypt thinking that horses can help them, Impressed by military mathematics, awed by sheer numbers of chariots and riders— And to The Holy of Israel, not even a glance, not so much as a prayer to GOD.H1945H3381H4714H5833H8172H5483H982H7393H7227H6571H3966H6105H8159H6918H3478H1875H30682Still, he must be reckoned with, a most wise God who knows what he's doing. He can call down catastrophe. He's a God who does what he says. He intervenes in the work of those who do wrong, stands up against interfering evildoers.H2450H935H7451H5493H1697H6965H1004H7489H5833H6466H2053Egyptians are mortal, not God, and their horses are flesh, not Spirit. When GOD gives the signal, helpers and helped alike will fall in a heap and share the same dirt grave.H4714H120H410H5483H1320H7307H3068H5186H3027H5826H3782H5826H5307H3615H31624This is what GOD told me: "Like a lion, king of the beasts, that gnaws and chews and worries its prey, Not fazed in the least by a bunch of shepherds who arrive to chase it off, So GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies comes down to fight on Mount Zion, to make war from its heights.H3068H559H738H3715H1897H2964H4393H7462H7121H2865H6963H6031H1995H3068H6635H3381H6633H2022H6726H13895And like a huge eagle hovering in the sky, GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies protects Jerusalem. I'll protect and rescue it. Yes, I'll hover and deliver."H6833H5774H3068H6635H1598H3389H1598H5337H6452H44226Repent, return, dear Israel, to the One you so cruelly abandoned.H7725H1121H3478H6009H56277On the day you return, you'll throw away—every last one of you—the no-gods your sinful hands made from metal and wood.H3117H376H3988H457H3701H457H2091H3027H6213H23998"Assyrians will fall dead, killed by a sword-thrust but not by a soldier, laid low by a sword not swung by a mortal. Assyrians will run from that sword, run for their lives, and their prize young men made slaves.H804H5307H2719H376H2719H120H398H5127H6440H2719H970H45229Terrorized, that rock-solid people will fall to pieces, their leaders scatter hysterically." GOD's Decree on Assyria. His fire blazes in Zion, his furnace burns hot in Jerusalem.H5674H5553H4032H8269H2865H5251H5002H3068H217H6726H8574H3389
