Daniel 5:23
New Living Translation
23 For you have proudly defied the Lord of heaven and have had these cups from his Temple brought before you. You and your nobles and your wives and concubines have been drinking wine from them while praising gods of silver, gold, bronze, iron, wood, and stone—gods that neither see nor hear nor know anything at all. But you have not honored the God who gives you the breath of life and controls your destiny!

Isaiah 10:6-7
New Living Translation
6 I am sending Assyria against a godless nation,
against a people with whom I am angry.
Assyria will plunder them,
trampling them like dirt beneath its feet.
7 But the king of Assyria will not understand that he is my tool;
his mind does not work that way.
His plan is simply to destroy,
to cut down nation after nation.
Isaiah 10:6-7
New International Version
6 I send him against a godless(A) nation,
I dispatch(B) him against a people who anger me,(C)
to seize loot and snatch plunder,(D)
and to trample(E) them down like mud in the streets.
7 But this is not what he intends,(F)
this is not what he has in mind;
his purpose is to destroy,
to put an end to many nations.
