Isaiah 30:32-33
New Catholic Bible
32 Every stroke that the Lord inflicts upon Assyria
with his punishing rod
will be accompanied by the sound
of timbrels and lyres
as he engages in battle
with his uplifted hand.
33 The pyre has been ready for a long time,
prepared for the king.
His pyre is deep and broad,
with fire and wood in abundance.
And the breath of the Lord, like a steam of sulfur,
will set it ablaze.[a]
