Yahweh Will Deliver Judah and Destroy Nineveh

• 12 Yahweh says this:“Even though they are powerful and likewise many,
  • even so they will be cut off and pass away.
• Though I have afflicted you,[fn]
  • I will afflict you[fn] no longer.
  • 13 And now, I will break his yoke from upon you; I will snap your bonds.”
• 14 Yahweh has commanded concerning you:“Your name will no longer be sown.
  • I will cut off the idols and images[fn] from the temple[fn] of your gods;
    • I will send you to the grave[fn] because you are worthless.”
• [fn] Look! On the mountains!
  • The feet of the one who brings good tidings,
    • the one who proclaims peace!
• “Celebrate a festival, O Judah,
  • Fulfill your vows!
• For he will not invade you again;
  • the wicked one is cut off completely!”
