28 In the year king Achaz died was this prophecy given.
29 Rejoice not, thou entire Palestine, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken; for out of the serpent’s root shall come forth an adder, and its fruit shall be a flying dragon.
30 And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall rest in safety: and I will kill with famine thy root, and men shall slay thy remnant.
31 Wail, O gate; cry out, O city; thou art dissolved, O thou entire Palestine; for from the north a smoke is coming, and there is no one solitary among those that are bidden to come.
32 And what will each one of the messengers of the nation answer? That the Lord hath founded Zion; and that therein shall find protection the poor of his people.
