Isaiah 10:7-9

New Century Version

⁷ But Assyria’s king doesn’t understand that I am using him;
    he doesn’t know he is a tool for me.
He only wants to destroy other people
    and to defeat many nations.
⁸ The king of Assyria says to himself,
    ‘All of my commanders are like kings.
⁹ The city Calno is like the city Carchemish.
    The city Hamath is like the city Arpad.
    The city Samaria is like the city Damascus.
