Isaías 10:33

33 ¡Pero miren! El Señor, el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales,
con gran fuerza cortará al poderoso árbol de Asiria.
Echará abajo a los soberbios;
ese árbol altanero será talado.

Isaías 10:33 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 10:33

Behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall lop the bough
with terror
Cut off the king of Assyria and his army, in a most terrible manner; "the glory" of it, as in ( Isaiah 10:18 ) the word signifies that which is the ornament, the beauty and glory, of the tree. The Septuagint render it, "the glorious ones"; and the Arabic version, "the nobles", the generals, and principal officers of the army; the Targum is,

``behold, the Lord of the world, the Lord of hosts, shall cast forth the slain in his camp, as grapes that are trod in a winepress.''

And the high ones of stature [shall] be hewn down;
the princes of Assyria, so boasted of as kings, ( Isaiah 10:8 ) comparable to tall trees, to oaks and cedars:

and the haughty shall be humbled;
who, like their monarch, boasted of their wisdom and strength, ( Isaiah 10:12-14 ) but now both he and they will be brought very low.

Isaías 10:33 In-Context

31 Allá va la gente de Madmena, todos huyen;
los ciudadanos de Gebim tratan de esconderse.

32 El enemigo se detiene en Nob por el resto del día;
amenaza con el puño al hermoso monte de Sión, el monte de Jerusalén.

33 ¡Pero miren! El Señor, el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales,
con gran fuerza cortará al poderoso árbol de Asiria.
Echará abajo a los soberbios;
ese árbol altanero será talado.

34 Cortará con un hacha los árboles de los bosques;
el Líbano caerá ante el Poderoso.
