Isaiah 31:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 On that day each one of you shall reject his idols of silver and gold, which your hands have made.(A)
8 Assyria shall fall by a sword, not wielded by human being,
no mortal sword shall devour him;
He shall flee before the sword,
and his young men shall be impressed as laborers.(B)
9 He shall rush past his crag[a] in panic,
and his princes desert the standard in terror,
Says the Lord who has a fire in Zion
and a furnace in Jerusalem.(C)
