Isaiah 59:18-19
New King James Version
18 (A)According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.

The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in (C)like a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.

12 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Lord has [a]performed all His work (A)on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, that He will say, (B)“I will punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his haughty looks.”
13 (C)For he says:
“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
And by my wisdom, for I am prudent;
Also I have removed the boundaries of the people,
And have robbed their treasuries;
So I have put down the inhabitants like a [b]valiant man.
14 (D)My hand has found like a nest the riches of the people,
And as one gathers eggs that are left,
I have gathered all the earth;
And there was no one who moved his wing,
Nor opened his mouth with even a peep.”
15 Shall (E)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!
