Isaiah 10:15-16

New International Version

¹⁵Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
    or the saw boast against the one who uses it?^(A)
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
    or a club^(B) brandish the one who is not wood!
¹⁶Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
    will send a wasting disease^(C) upon his sturdy warriors;^(D)
under his pomp^(E) a fire^(F) will be kindled
    like a blazing flame.
