Isaiah 10:5-7

Complete Jewish Bible

⁵ “Oh Ashur, the rod expressing my anger!
The club in their hands is my fury!
⁶ I am sending him against a hypocritical nation,
ordering him to march against a people who enrage me,
to take the spoil and the plunder
and trample them down like mud in the street.
⁷ That is not what Ashur intends,
that is not what they think;
rather, they mean to destroy,
to cut down nation after nation.
