The verse 25 is found in chapter 19 of Isaiah. The second part of the oracle radically transforms Egypt’s situation. Fear leads to the recognition of Yahweh, altars are erected, and a relationship of blessing is described among Egypt, Assyria, and Israel. The inclusion of former rivals within divine blessing anticipates a universal vision of salvation.
