Isaiah 10:6-12

6I send him against a godless nation, I dispatch him against a people who anger me, to seize loot and snatch plunder, and to trample them down like mud in the streets. 7But this is not what he intends, this is not what he has in mind; his purpose is to destroy, to put an end to many nations. 8‘Are not my commanders all kings?’ he says. 9‘Has not Kalno fared like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad, and Samaria like Damascus? 10As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols, kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria— 11shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?’ ” 12When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes.
