Isaiah 10:5-19

5OH1945 AssyrianH804, the rodH7626 of mine angerH639, and the staffH4294 in their handH3027 is mine indignationH2195.12 6I will sendH7971 him against an hypocriticalH2611 nationH1471, and against the peopleH5971 of my wrathH5678 will I give him a chargeH6680, to takeH7997 the spoilH7998, and to takeH962 the preyH957, and to tread them downH4823H7760 like the mireH2563 of the streetsH2351.3 7Howbeit he meanethH1819 not so, neither doth his heartH3824 thinkH2803 so; but it is in his heartH3824 to destroyH8045 and cut offH3772 nationsH1471 not a fewH4592. 8For he saithH559, Are not my princesH8269 altogetherH3162 kingsH4428? 9Is not CalnoH3641 as CarchemishH3751? is not HamathH2574 as ArpadH774? is not SamariaH8111 as DamascusH1834? 10As my handH3027 hath foundH4672 the kingdomsH4467 of the idolsH457, and whose graven imagesH6456 did excel them of JerusalemH3389 and of SamariaH8111; 11Shall I not, as I have doneH6213 unto SamariaH8111 and her idolsH457, so doH6213 to JerusalemH3389 and her idolsH6091? 12Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the LordH136 hath performedH1214 his whole workH4639 upon mountH2022 ZionH6726 and on JerusalemH3389, I will punishH6485 the fruitH6529 of the stoutH1433 heartH3824 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and the gloryH8597 of his highH7312 looksH5869.45 13For he saithH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971, and have robbedH8154 their treasuresH6264H6259, and I have put downH3381 the inhabitantsH3427 like a valiantH3524H47 man:6 14And my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the richesH2428 of the peopleH5971: and as one gatherethH622 eggsH1000 that are leftH5800, have I gatheredH622 all the earthH776; and there was none that movedH5074 the wingH3671, or openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or peepedH6850. 15Shall the axeH1631 boastH6286 itself against him that hewethH2672 therewith? or shall the sawH4883 magnifyH1431 itself against him that shakethH5130 it? as if the rodH7626 should shakeH5130 itself against them that lift it upH7311, or as if the staffH4294 should lift upH7311 itself, as if it were no woodH6086.78 16Therefore shall the LordH113, the LordH3068H136 of ArmiesH6635, sendH7971 among his fat onesH4924 leannessH7332; and under his gloryH3519 he shall kindleH3344 a burningH3350 like the burning of a fireH784. 17And the lightH216 of IsraelH3478 shall be for a fireH784, and his Holy OneH6918 for a flameH3852: and it shall burnH1197 and devourH398 his thornsH7898 and his briersH8068 in oneH259 dayH3117; 18And shall consumeH3615 the gloryH3519 of his forestH3293, and of his fruitful fieldH3759, both soulH5315 and bodyH1320: and they shall be as when a standardbearerH5263 faintethH4549.9 19And the restH7605 of the treesH6086 of his forestH3293 shall be fewH4557, that a childH5288 may writeH3789 them.10
