Isaiah · Chapter 10
Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness
which they have prescribed;
To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and
that
they may rob the fatherless!
And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation
which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?
Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand
is stretched out still.
O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation.
I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but
it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few.
For he saith,
Are not my princes altogether kings?
Is not Calno as Carchemish?
is not Hamath as Arpad?
is not Samaria as Damascus?
As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them of Yerushalayim and of Samaria;
Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Yerushalayim and her idols?
Wherefore it shall come to pass,
that when the master hath performed his whole work upon mount Tsiyon and on Yerushalayim, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.
For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done
it,
and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant
man:
And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs
that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped.
Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith?
or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake
itself against them that lift it up,
or as if the staff should lift up
itself, as if it were
no wood.
Therefore shall the master, the master of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire.
And the light of Yisra'el shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day;
And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both nephesh and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.
And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that the remnant of Yisra'el, and such as are escaped of the house of Ya'aqov, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), the Holy One of Yisra'el, in truth.
The remnant shall return,
even the remnant of Ya'aqov, unto the mighty Elohim.
For though thy people Yisra'el be as the sand of the sea,
yet
a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness.
For the master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land.
Therefore thus saith the master 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Tsiyon, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Mitsrayim.
For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and
as his rod
was
upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Mitsrayim.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages:
They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Sha'ul is fled.
Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth.
Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.
As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand
against the mount of the daughter of Tsiyon, the hill of Yerushalayim.
Behold, the master, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature
shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled.
And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.

Yesha'yahu11
Isaiah · Chapter 11
And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
And the spirit of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH);
And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice’ den.
They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), as the waters cover the sea.
And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that the master shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Mitsrayim, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Yisra'el, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make
men go over dryshod.
And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Yisra'el in the day that he came up out of the land of Mitsrayim.

Yesha'yahu12
Isaiah · Chapter 12
And in that day thou shalt say, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me.
Behold, Elohim
is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) JEHOVAH
is my strength and
my song; he also is become my salvation.
Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.
And in that day shall ye say, Praise 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.
Sing unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); for he hath done excellent things: this
is
known in all the earth.
Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Tsiyon: for great
is the Holy One of Yisra'el in the midst of thee.
