Isaiah 10:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 Therefore shall the Lord God of hosts send among his fat men leanness, and under his glory he shall kindle a burning, like the burning of fire.
17 And the light of Israel shall be as a [a]fire, and the Holy one thereof as a flame, and it shall burn, and devour [b]his thorns and his briers in one day:
18 And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful fields both soul [c]and flesh: and he shall be as the [d]fainting of a standard bearer.
