21 The remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob,
To the ^aMighty God. ‡

22 ^aFor though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea,
^bA remnant of them will return;
The destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness. ‡

24 Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: “O My people, who dwell in Zion, ^ado not be afraid of the Assyrian. He shall strike you with a rod and lift up his staff against you, in the manner of ^bEgypt.  ‡

25 For yet a very little while ^aand the indignation will cease, as will My anger in their destruction.”  ‡
