And they shall fall1 among the slain.”
bFor all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.
Arrogant Assyria Also Judged
And against the people of My wrath
I will bgive him charge,
To seize the spoil, to take the prey,
And to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
Nor does his heart think so;
But it is in his heart to destroy,
And cut off not a few nations.
Whose carved images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
Shall I not do also to Jerusalem and her idols?’ ”
“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
And by my wisdom, for I am prudent;
Also I have removed the boundaries of the people,
And have robbed their treasuries;
So I have put down the inhabitants like a1 valiant man.
And as one gathers eggs that are left,
I have gathered all the earth;
And there was no one who moved his wing,
Nor opened his mouth with even a peep.”
| << Isaiah 10:5 | Isaiah 10:7 >> |
