¹¹Surely you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the countries, destroying them completely. And will you be delivered? ¹²Did the gods of the nations that were destroyed by my predecessors deliver^(A) them—the gods of Gozan,^(B) Harran,^(C) Rezeph and the people of Eden who were in Tel Assar? ¹³Where is the king of Hamath or the king of Arpad? Where are the kings of Lair, Sepharvaim, Hena and Ivvah?”^(D)

Isaiah 10:9-14

New International Version

⁹    ‘Has not Kalno^(A) fared like Carchemish?^(B)
Is not Hamath^(C) like Arpad,^(D)
    and Samaria^(E) like Damascus?^(F)
¹⁰As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols,^(G)
    kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—
¹¹shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images
    as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?^(H)’”

¹²When the Lord has finished all his work^(I) against Mount Zion^(J) and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria^(K) for the willful pride^(L) of his heart and the haughty look^(M) in his eyes. ¹³For he says:

“‘By the strength of my hand^(N) I have done this,^(O)
    and by my wisdom, because I have understanding.
I removed the boundaries of nations,
    I plundered their treasures;^(P)
    like a mighty one I subdued^[a] their kings.^(Q)
¹⁴As one reaches into a nest,^(R)
    so my hand reached for the wealth^(S) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
    so I gathered all the countries;^(T)
not one flapped a wing,
    or opened its mouth to chirp.^(U)’”
