New International Version (NIV)

11Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“An enemy will overrun your land,

pull down your strongholds

and plunder your fortresses.”

11Therefore, this is what the Lord God says:

“An enemy, one surrounding the land,

Will take down your fortifications from you,

And your citadels will be looted.”

11Therefore, thus says the Lord God,

“An enemy, even one surrounding the land,

Will pull down your strength from you

And your citadels will be looted.”

11Therefore, thus says the Lord God,

“An adversary (Assyria), even one surrounding the land,

Shall pull down your strength from you

And your fortresses will be looted.”

11 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says:

“An enemy3:11 Or An adversary will surround the land;

he will pull down your strongholds

and plunder your citadels.”

11So the Lord and King says,

“Enemies will take over your land.

They will pull down your places of safety.

They will rob your forts.”
