Isaiah 10:13-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 For he says:
“By my own power I have done it,
and by my wisdom, for I am shrewd.
I have moved the boundaries of peoples,
their treasures I have pillaged,
and, like a mighty one, I have brought down the enthroned.
14 My hand has seized, like a nest,
the wealth of nations.
As one takes eggs left alone,
so I took in all the earth;
No one fluttered a wing,
or opened a mouth, or chirped!”
Habakkuk 2:12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 Ah! you who build a city by bloodshed,
and who establish a town with injustice!(A)
