Isaiah 10:13-15
English Standard Version
13 (A)For he says:
“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
and by my wisdom, for I have understanding;
I remove the boundaries of peoples,
and plunder their treasures;
like a bull I bring down those who sit on thrones.
14 My hand has found like a nest
the wealth of the peoples;
and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken,
so I have gathered all the earth;
and there was none that moved a wing
or opened the mouth or chirped.”
15 Shall (B)the axe boast over him who hews with it,
or the saw magnify itself against him who wields it?
As if a rod should wield him who lifts it,
or as if a staff should lift him who is not wood!
Isaiah 10:6

6 Against a (A)godless nation I send him,
and against the people of my wrath I command him,
to take (B)spoil and seize plunder,
and to (C)tread them down like the mire of the streets.
Isaiah 9:3
English Standard Version
3 (A)You have multiplied the nation;
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you
as with (B)joy at the harvest,
as they (C)are glad (D)when they divide the spoil.
