Isaiah 10:15-16
New King James Version
Isaiah 10:15-16
New King James Version
15 Shall (A)the ax boast itself against him who chops with it?
Or shall the saw exalt itself against him who saws with it?
As if a rod could wield itself against those who lift it up,
Or as if a staff could lift up, as if it were not wood!
16 Therefore the Lord, the [a]Lord of hosts,
Will send leanness among his fat ones;
And under his glory
He will kindle a burning
Like the burning of a fire.

Isaiah 10:15-16
New International Version
15 Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
or the saw boast against the one who uses it?(A)
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
or a club(B) brandish the one who is not wood!
16 Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
will send a wasting disease(C) upon his sturdy warriors;(D)
under his pomp(E) a fire(F) will be kindled
like a blazing flame.
