Isaiah 31:7-9
The Voice
7 For in that day you’ll see the worthlessness of the idols you so wickedly made, and everyone will throw away their gods of silver and gold.
8 Eternal One: And then, the one you fear, Assyria, will fall and be defeated,
not by the sword of man but by the sword of God.
It will try to escape the edge of the blade,
but its young men will be captured and put to forced labor.
9 The very thing the Assyrians thought was permanent
will disappear into thin air, fleeing in fear;
And the discipline of their military will come to nothing.
They’ll panic and run.
This is what the Eternal, whose fire burns in Zion, whose furnace blazes in Jerusalem, has said.

Isaiah 31:7-9
New International Version
7 For in that day(A) every one of you will reject the idols of silver and gold(B) your sinful hands have made.(C)
8 “Assyria(D) will fall by no human sword;
a sword, not of mortals, will devour(E) them.
They will flee before the sword
and their young men will be put to forced labor.(F)
9 Their stronghold(G) will fall because of terror;
at the sight of the battle standard(H) their commanders will panic,(I)”
declares the Lord,
whose fire(J) is in Zion,
whose furnace(K) is in Jerusalem.
