5 Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger, and the staff that is in their hand is My rage. 6 I will send him against a godless nation and I will order him against the people of My wrath, to plunder the plunder and to prey on the prey, and to set them for trampling like the clay of the streets. 7 And he does not consider it so, and his heart does not reckon it so, for to destroy is in his heart, and to cut off nations—not a few. 8 For he says: “Are not my princes all kings? 9 Or is not Calno like Carchemish? Or is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus? 10 As my hand has reached to the kingdoms of the idols and their graven images above those of Jerusalem and Samaria— 11 is it not that as I have done to Samaria and her idols, thus I will do to Jerusalem and her idols?’” 12 And it will come to pass, when YHWH has cut off all his work against Mount Zion and against Jerusalem: “I will reckon with the fruit of the magnitude of the heart of the king of Assyria and with the splendor of the loftiness of his eyes.
