Isaiah 30:31-33

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³¹ At the voice of the Lord the Assyrians will be stricken with dismay and terror, when He smites them with His rod.

³² And every passing stroke of the staff of punishment and doom which the Lord lays upon them shall be to the sound of [Israel’s] timbrels and lyres, when in battle He attacks [Assyria] with swinging and menacing arms.

³³ For Topheth [a place of burning and abomination] has already been laid out and long ago prepared; yes, for the [Assyrian] king and [the god] Molech it has been made ready, its pyre made deep and large, with fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, kindles it.^(A)
