Isaiah 10:29

GebaGibeahRamah

27 On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders, and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because your neck will be too large.

28 Assyria has entered Aiath and passed through Migron, storing their supplies at Michmash.

They have crossed at the ford: “We will spend the night at Geba.” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul flees.

30 Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim! Listen, O Laishah! O wretched Anathoth!

31 Madmenah flees; the people of Gebim take refuge.
