Isaiah 10:14-16
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
14 My hand has found like a nest
the wealth of the peoples;
and as men gather eggs that have been forsaken
so I have gathered all the earth;
and there was none that moved a wing,
or opened the mouth, or chirped.”
15 Shall the axe vaunt itself over him who hews with it,
or the saw magnify itself against him who wields it?
As if a rod should wield him who lifts it,
or as if a staff should lift him who is not wood!
16 Therefore the Lord, the Lord of hosts,
will send wasting sickness among his stout warriors,
and under his glory a burning will be kindled,
like the burning of fire.
Isaiah 10:14-16
New International Version
14 As one reaches into a nest,(A)
so my hand reached for the wealth(B) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
so I gathered all the countries;(C)
not one flapped a wing,
or opened its mouth to chirp.(D)’”
15 Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
or the saw boast against the one who uses it?(E)
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
or a club(F) brandish the one who is not wood!
16 Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
will send a wasting disease(G) upon his sturdy warriors;(H)
under his pomp(I) a fire(J) will be kindled
like a blazing flame.
