Isaiah17:12

12 Wo to the multitude of many people , which make a noise like the noise of the seas ; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters.

This is a new Prophecy, added for the present support and comfort of God's People.

Combined together against Iudah. It matters not whether you understand this of the Syrians and Israelites who were united against Iudah, or of the Assyrians, whose Army consisted of vast numbers, and of men of several Nations. The following Words agree to either of them.

Which invade my Land and P[illegible: 1+ letters]ple with great force and fary, as the Sea doth, either in its [illegible: 1+ letters]n Channel, or when it enters into the Land by a Breach.

Marginal references: Or, many, or, noise.; Or, many.
