Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.

Verse 28 is found in chapter 19 of 2 Kings. Isaiah conveys the Lord’s response to the Assyrian threat. The message mocks Sennacherib’s arrogance and states that his advance has occurred within limits established by God. The imperial power believes its conquests depend exclusively on its own strength, but the prophet declares that the Lord knows and governs its course. It is promised that Assyria will not enter Jerusalem or shoot an arrow there. The deliverance is presented as a sign that God’s sovereignty extends even over the empire that appeared invincible.

Weil du denn wider mich tobst und dein Übermut vor meine Ohren heraufgekommen ist, so will ich dir einen Ring an deine Nase legen und ein Gebiß in dein Maul und will dich den Weg wieder zurückführen, da du her gekommen bist.
Por cuanto te has airado contra mí, y tu estruendo ha subido a mis oídos, yo por tanto pondré mi anzuelo en tus narices, y mi bocado en tus labios, y te haré volver por el camino por donde viniste.
Porque te has enfurecido contra mí y tu arrogancia ha llegado a mis oídos, pondré mi gancho en tu nariz y mi freno en tus labios, y te haré volver por el camino por donde viniste.
Parce que tu es furieux contre moi, Et que ton arrogance est montée à mes oreilles, Je mettrai ma boucle à tes narines et mon mors entre tes lèvres, Et je te ferai retourner par le chemin par lequel tu es venu.
Perciocchè tu sei infuriato contro a me, e il tuo strepito è salito a miei orecchi; perciò io ti metterò il mio raffio nelle nari, e il mio freno nelle mascelle, e ti farò ritornare indietro per la via stessa per la quale sei venuto.
Por causa do teu furor contra mim, e porque a tua revolta subiu aos meus ouvidos, portanto porei o meu anzol no teu nariz e o meu freio nos teus lábios, e te farei voltar pelo caminho por onde vieste.
因你向我發烈怒, 你的狂傲上達我耳中, 我要用鉤子鉤住你的鼻子, 將嚼環放在你口裏, 使你從原路轉回去。』
