Psalm 33:16

16 (A)The king is not saved by a mighty army;
A warrior is not rescued by great strength.

no warrior escapes by his great strength.

Isaiah 10:13-16
New American Standard Bible
13 For (A)he has said,
“By the power of my hand and by my wisdom I did this,
Because I have understanding;
And I (B)removed the boundaries of the peoples
And plundered their treasures,
And like a powerful man I brought down [a]their inhabitants,
14 And my hand reached to the riches of the peoples like a (C)nest,
And as one gathers abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth;
And there was not one that flapped its wing, opened its beak, or chirped.”
15 Is the (D)axe to (E)boast itself over the one who chops with it?
Is the saw to exalt itself over the one who wields it?
That would be like (F)a [b]club wielding those who lift it,
Or like (G)a rod lifting the one who is not wood.
16 Therefore the Lord, the [c]God of armies, will send a (H)wasting disease among his (I)stout warriors;
And under his (J)glory a fire will be kindled like a burning flame.

New International Version
Isaiah 10:13-16
New International Version
13 For he says:
“‘By the strength of my hand(A) I have done this,(B)
and by my wisdom, because I have understanding.
I removed the boundaries of nations,
I plundered their treasures;(C)
like a mighty one I subdued[a] their kings.(D)
14 As one reaches into a nest,(E)
so my hand reached for the wealth(F) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
so I gathered all the countries;(G)
not one flapped a wing,
or opened its mouth to chirp.(H)’”
15 Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
or the saw boast against the one who uses it?(I)
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
or a club(J) brandish the one who is not wood!
16 Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
will send a wasting disease(K) upon his sturdy warriors;(L)
under his pomp(M) a fire(N) will be kindled
like a blazing flame.
