30 The survivors of the house of Judah who have escaped will take root below and bear fruit above.
31 Those who remain will go out from Jerusalem, and those who survive will go out from Mount Zion. The zeal of the LORD of heavenly forces will do this.
32 "Therefore, this is what the LORD says about Assyria's king: He won't enter this city. He won't shoot a single arrow there. He won't come near the city with a shield. He won't build a ramp to besiege it.
33 He will go back by the same way he came. He won't enter this city, declares the LORD.
