Isaiah 10:12-19

But when the Lord finishes all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I  will punish the king of Assyria for his arrogant acts and the proud look in his eyes.”  For he said: I have done this by my own strength and wisdom, for I am clever. I abolished the borders of nations and plundered their treasures;  like a mighty warrior, I subjugated the inhabitants.  , My hand has reached out, as if into a nest, to seize the wealth of the nations. Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered the whole earth. No wing fluttered; no beak opened or chirped. Does an ax exalt itself above the one who chops with it? Does a saw magnify itself above the one who saws with it? It would be like a rod waving the ones who lift   it! It would be like a staff lifting the one who isn’t wood! Therefore the Lord GOD of Armies will inflict an emaciating disease on the well-fed of Assyria, and he will kindle a burning fire under its glory. Israel’s Light will become a fire, and its Holy One, a flame.  In one day it will burn and consume Assyria’s thorns and thistles.  He will completely destroy the glory of its forests and orchards as a sickness consumes a person. The remaining trees of its forest will be so few in number that a child could count them.
