Isaiah 10:6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 I send it against a (A)godless nation
And commission it against the (B)people of My fury
To capture spoils and (C)to seize plunder,
And to [a]trample them down like (D)mud in the streets.
7 Yet it (E)does not so intend,
Nor does [b]it plan so in its heart,
But rather it is [c]its purpose to destroy
And to eliminate [d]many nations.
8 For it says, “Are not my officers [e]all kings?

Isaiah 10:6-8
King James Version
6 I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
7 Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few.
8 For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings?
