Isaiah 10:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 What will you do on the day of punishment
when disaster befalls you from afar?
To whom will you flee for help,
and where will you leave your riches,
4 so that you can avoid cowering among the captives
or falling among the slain?
Yet after all this, his wrath has not abated;
his hand is still outstretched.
The Lord Punishes the King of Assyria
5 [a]Woe to Assyria, the rod of my anger;
the club in their hands is my fury.
