Isaiah 10:12-14
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
12 And it shall come to pass, that when the Lord shall have performed all his works in mount Sion, and in Jerusalem, I will visit the fruit of the proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of the haughtiness of his eyes.
13 For he hath said: By the strength of my own hand I have done it, and by my own wisdom I have understood: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have taken the spoils of the princes, and as a mighty man hath pulled down them that sat on high.
14 And my hand hath found the strength of the people as a nest; and as eggs are gathered, that are left, so have I gathered all the earth: and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or made the least noise.

Isaiah 10:12-14
New International Version
12 When the Lord has finished all his work(A) against Mount Zion(B) and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria(C) for the willful pride(D) of his heart and the haughty look(E) in his eyes. 13 For he says:
“‘By the strength of my hand(F) I have done this,(G)
and by my wisdom, because I have understanding.
I removed the boundaries of nations,
I plundered their treasures;(H)
like a mighty one I subdued[a] their kings.(I)
14 As one reaches into a nest,(J)
so my hand reached for the wealth(K) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
so I gathered all the countries;(L)
not one flapped a wing,
or opened its mouth to chirp.(M)’”
