11 From you[a] goes out
        one who plots evil against the Lord
            a worthless counselor!

Reassurance for God’s people

12 The Lord proclaims:
Though once they were a healthy and numerous force,

        I won’t afflict you further, Zion.[b]
13 Now I will break off his yoke from you
        and tear off your chains.
