⁵ And this one will be peace.
As for the Assyrian,^[a] when he comes into our land
    and when he treads on our fortresses,
then we will raise up against him seven shepherds
    and eight leaders of men.
⁶ And they will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
    and the land of Nimrod at its entrances.
And he will rescue us from the Assyrian^[b]
    when he comes into our land,
    and when they tread upon our border.

⁷ And the remnant of Jacob will be
    in the midst of many nations,
like dew from Yahweh,
    like showers upon the grass
which does not wait for a man,
    nor delays for the children of humankind.
