6. People of Israel, return to the one whom you have deeply betrayed!
7. On that day, you will each reject the idols of silver and the idols of gold, which you have sinfully made for yourselves.
8. Assyria will fall, but not by a human sword—a sword not made by humans will devour them.They will flee before the sword;their young men will become forced laborers.
9. In horror they will flee from their stronghold;their officers will be terrified at the signal,says the Lord, whose fire is in Zionand whose oven is in Jerusalem.
