Isaiah 31:8
Compare all
6 Return to Him against whom the children of Israel have adeeply revolted.  
7 For in that day every man shall athrow away his idols of silver and his idols of gold—bsin, which your own hands have made for yourselves. 
8 “Then Assyria shall afall by a sword not of man,
And a sword not of mankind shall bdevour him.
But he shall flee from the sword,
And his young men shall become forced labor. 
9 aHe shall cross over to his stronghold for fear,
And his princes shall be afraid of the banner,”
Says the Lord,
Whose fire is in Zion
And whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

Isaiah 31:8

Then shall the Assyrian fall, etc. - Because he was to be discomfited by the angel of the Lord, destroying in his camp, in one night, upwards of one hundred and eighty thousand men; and Sennacherib himself fell by the hands of the princes, his own sons. Not mighty men, for they were not soldiers; not mean men, for they were princes.
