Isaiah 13:4
4 The sound aof a tumult is on the mountainsas of a great multitude!
The sound of an uproar of kingdoms,
of nations gathering together!
bThe Lord of hosts is mustering
a host for battle.

Cyrus, God’s Instrument
1 Thus says the Lord to chis anointed, to Cyrus,dwhose right hand I have grasped,
to subdue nations before him
and eto loose the belts of kings,
to open doors before him
that gates may not be closed:
2“I will go before you
and flevel the exalted places, ▼
▼Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scroll, Septuagint level the mountains
hI will break in pieces the doors of bronze
and cut through the bars of iron,
Micah 2:12-13
12I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob;iI will gather jthe remnant of Israel;
I will set them together
like sheep in a fold,
klike a flock in its pasture,
a noisy multitude of men.
13 lHe who opens the breach goes up before them;
they break through and pass the gate,
mgoing out by it.
Their king passes on before them,
nthe Lord at their head.
