Psalm 33:16
New International Version
16 No king is saved by the size of his army;(A)
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
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.
