Isaiah 7:20

Assyria, The Lord's Instrument

¹⁹ And they have come, and rested all of them in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things. ²⁰ In that day doth the Lord shave, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Yea, also the beard it consumeth. ²¹ And it hath come to pass, in that day, A man keepeth alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,
