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.
