Isaiah 10:5

Judgment On Assyria's Arrogance

⁴ There will be nothing to do
except crouch among the prisoners
or fall among the slain.
In all this, His anger is not removed,
and His hand is still raised to strike. ⁵ Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger—
the staff in their hands is My wrath.
⁶ I will send him against a godless nation;
I will command him to go
against a people destined for My rage,
to take spoils, to plunder,
and to trample them down like clay in the streets.
