23:010:004 Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they
           shall fall under the slain.  For all this his anger is not
           turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

23:010:005 O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand
           is mine indignation.

23:010:006 I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against
           the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the
           spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the
           mire of the streets.

23:010:007 Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so;
           but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a
           few.

23:010:008 For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings?

23:010:009 Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not
           Samaria as Damascus?

23:010:010 As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose
           graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;

23:010:011 Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do
           to Jerusalem and her idols?

23:010:012 Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath
           performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I
           will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of
           Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.

23:010:013 For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and
           by my wisdom; for I am prudent:  and I have removed the bounds
           of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put
           down the inhabitants like a valiant man: 

23:010:014 And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people:  and
           as one gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the
           earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the
           mouth, or peeped.

23:010:015 Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith?
           or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it?
           as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it
           up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no
           wood.

23:010:016 Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his
           fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a
           burning like the burning of a fire.

23:010:017 And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One
           for a flame:  and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his
           briers in one day;

23:010:018 And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful
           field, both soul and body:  and they shall be as when a
           standard-bearer fainteth.
