ylt @Isaiah:10:5 @Wo [to ] Asshur , a rod of Mine anger , And a staff in their hand [is ] Mine indignation . ylt @Isaiah:10:6 @Against a profane nation I send him , And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him , To spoil spoil , and to seize prey , And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places . ylt @Isaiah:10:7 @And he -- he thinketh not so , And his heart reckoneth not so , For -- to destroy [is ] in his heart , And to cut off nations not a few . ylt @Isaiah:10:8 @For he saith , 'Are not my princes altogether kings ? ylt @Isaiah:10:9 @Is not Calno as Carchemish ? Is not Hamath as Arpad ? Is not Samaria as Damascus ? ylt @Isaiah:10:10 @As my hand hath got to the kingdoms of a worthless thing , and their graven images , [Greater ] than Jerusalem and than Samaria , ylt @Isaiah:10:11 @Do I not -- as I have done to Samaria , And to her worthless things , So do to Jerusalem and to her grievous things ? ylt @Isaiah:10:12 @And it hath come to pass , When the Lord doth fulfil all His work In mount Zion and in Jerusalem , I see concerning the fruit of the greatness Of the heart of the king of Asshur . And concerning the glory of the height of his eyes . ylt @Isaiah:10:13 @For he hath said , 'By the power of my hand I have wrought , And by my wisdom , for I have been intelligent , And I remove borders of the peoples , And their chief ones I have spoiled , And I put down as a mighty one the inhabitants , ylt @Isaiah:10:14 @And my hand as to a nest Getteth to the wealth of the peoples , And as a gathering of forsaken eggs All the earth I -- I have gathered , And there hath not been one moving wing , Or opening mouth , or whispering .' ylt @Isaiah:10:15 @-- Doth the axe glorify itself Against him who is hewing with it ? Doth the saw magnify itself Against him who is shaking it ? As a rod waving those lifting it up ! As a staff lifting up that which is not wood ! ylt @Isaiah:10:16 @Therefore doth the Lord , the Lord of Hosts , Send among his fat ones leanness , And under his honour He kindleth a burning As the burning of a fire .
