14:24 萬軍之耶和華起誓說：我怎樣思想，必照樣成就；我怎樣定意，必照樣成立，
14:25 就是在我地上打折亞述人，在我山上將他踐踏。他加的軛必離開以色列人；他加的重擔必離開他們的肩頭。
14:26 這是向全地所定的旨意；這是向萬國所伸出的手。
14:27 萬軍之耶和華既然定意，誰能廢棄呢？他的手已經伸出，誰能轉回呢？
14:28 亞哈斯王崩的那年，就有以下的默示：
14:29 非利士全地啊，不要因擊打你的杖折斷就喜樂。因為從蛇的根必生出毒蛇；牠所生的是火焰的飛龍。
14:30 貧寒人的長子必有所食；窮乏人必安然躺臥。我必以饑荒治死你的根；你所餘剩的人必被殺戮。
14:31 門哪，應當哀號！城啊，應當呼喊！非利士全地啊，你都消化了！因為有煙從北方出來，他行伍中並無亂隊的。
14:32 可怎樣回答外邦（或指非利士）的使者呢？必說：耶和華建立了錫安；他百姓中的困苦人必投奔在其中。
The Lord of hosts has sworn:
As I have designed,
so shall it be;
and as I have planned,
so shall it come to pass:
25
I will break the Assyrian in my land,
and on my mountains trample him under foot;
his yoke shall be removed from them,
and his burden from their shoulders.
26
This is the plan that is planned
concerning the whole earth;
and this is the hand that is stretched out
over all the nations.
27
For the Lord of hosts has planned,
and who will annul it?
His hand is stretched out,
and who will turn it back?
In the year that King Ahaz died this oracle came:
29
Do not rejoice, all you Philistines,
that the rod that struck you is broken,
for from the root of the snake will come forth an adder,
and its fruit will be a flying fiery serpent.
30
The firstborn of the poor will graze,
and the needy lie down in safety;
but I will make your root die of famine,
and your remnant I will kill.
31
Wail, O gate; cry, O city;
melt in fear, O Philistia, all of you!
For smoke comes out of the north,
and there is no straggler in its ranks.
32
What will one answer the messengers of the nation?
“The Lord has founded Zion,
and the needy among his people
will find refuge in her.”

先知以賽亞預言非利士人的下場，使人看見非利士人必定敗亡。因為，上帝要興起強大的軍事帝國，不管是亞述還是巴比倫，都是有強大的軍事力量，而且是使許多小國家滅亡。而上帝這樣做，要凸顯他特別愛以色列和猶大，讓他們有復興的機會。
我們既然知道上帝有這樣的特質，我們就要順應上帝的呼召，讓自己常常在上帝的憐憫當中，正如猶大書20-21節所說：「親愛的弟兄啊，你們卻要在至聖的真道上造就自己，在聖靈裡禱告，保守自己常在上帝的愛中，仰望我們主耶穌基督的憐憫，直到永生。」
因此，我們與上帝的關係是建立在上帝的保守，使自己得恩惠蒙憐恤，不是藉由我們服事努力賺來的，乃是要透過耶穌基督自己本身的拯救！
