Isaiah

Isaiah 10:16–19

¹⁶Therefore the Lord GOD of Hosts will send a wasting disease

among Assyria’s stout warriors,

and under his pomp will be kindled

a fire like a burning flame.

¹⁷And the Light of Israel will become a fire,

and its Holy One a flame.

In a single day it will burn and devour

Assyria’s thorns and thistles.

¹⁸The splendor of its forests and orchards,

both soul and body,

it will completely destroy,

as a sickness consumes a man.

¹⁹The remaining trees of its forests will be so few

that a child could count them.
