Isaiah 10:13-16

13For he hath saidH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have done it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I have understandingH995: and I have removedH5493 the bounds of the peoplesH5971, and have robbed their treasures, and like a valiant man I have broughtH3381 downH3381 them that sitH3427 on thrones: 14and my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the riches of the peoplesH5971; and as one gathereth eggsH1000 that are forsaken, have I gatheredH622 all the earthH776: and there wasH1961 none that moved the wingH3671, or that openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or chirped.

15Shall the axeH1631 boast itself against him that heweth therewith? shall the saw magnifyH1431 itself against him that wieldeth it? as if a rodH7626 should wieldH5130 them that liftH7311 it up, or as if a staffH4294 should liftH7311 up him that is not woodH6086. 16ThereforeH3651 will the Lord, Jehovah of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat ones leanness; and under his gloryH3519 there shall be kindled a burningH3344 like the burningH3344 of fireH784.
