Isaiah 10:6-9
The Voice
6 I am sending Assyria against a nation that refuses to act rightly,
delegating it to humble a people who have frustrated
and infuriated Me by their blithe dismissal.
Assyria will snatch their wealth, seize their treasures,
and trample over them like mud in the streets.
7 But they will get cocky. Assyria has its own intentions for destruction,
to move against other people and other places to cut them down.
8-9 The victories make them think they’re invincible:
The king of Assyria says:
“Aren’t all of my princes destined to be kings?
Calno fell just like Carchemish.
I took Hamath as easily as Arpad. Samaria, too, fell like Damascus.
Isaiah 10:6-8
New International Version
6 I send him against a godless(A) nation,
I dispatch(B) him against a people who anger me,(C)
to seize loot and snatch plunder,(D)
and to trample(E) them down like mud in the streets.
7 But this is not what he intends,(F)
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(G) all kings?’ he says.
