Thematic Bible: An instrument of God's vengeance
Thematic Bible
Assyria » As a power, was » An instrument of God's vengeance
Woe to Asshur, a rod of Mine anger, And a staff in their hand is Mine indignation. Against a profane nation I send him, And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him, To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah doth hiss for a fly that is in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that is in the land of Asshur.
