17 but God will bring upon thee and upon thy people and upon the house of thy father days which have not yet come. From the day he hath taken Ephraim from Juda [he will bring] the king of the Assyrians.
18 It shall come to pass that at that time the Lord will utter a call to the flies; to that part of them which rule over the river of Egypt; and to the bee which is in the country of the Assyrians;
19 and they shall all come into the vallies of this country; and into the holes of the rocks; and into the caves and into every cleft.
20 On that day the Lord will shave with that razor; with that which was hired on the bank of the river; with that of the king of the Assyrians, the head and the hair of the feet: and take off the beard.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man will keep a young cow and two sheep;
22 and by reason of the abundance he will drink milk; butter and honey will be eaten by every one left in the land.
23 And it shall come to pass in that day every where, though there may be a thousand vineyards, each valued at a thousand shekels income: they shall be for briars and thorns.
24 With bows and arrows men will resort thither. Because the whole country shall be a waste of briars and thorns,
25 therefore every mountain which hath been ploughed will be ploughed, wherever terror could not come; for by reason of the country's being a waste of briars and thorns, it shall be a pasture for sheep and a range for the ox.
