Isaiah 10:14-16

New International Version

¹⁴ As one reaches into a nest,^(A)
    so my hand reached for the wealth^(B) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
    so I gathered all the countries;^(C)
not one flapped a wing,
    or opened its mouth to chirp.^(D)’”

¹⁵ Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
    or the saw boast against the one who uses it?^(E)
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
    or a club^(F) brandish the one who is not wood!
¹⁶ Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
    will send a wasting disease^(G) upon his sturdy warriors;^(H)
under his pomp^(I) a fire^(J) will be kindled
    like a blazing flame.
