Isaiah 10:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ So the Lord God All-Powerful
    will send a terrible disease upon Assyria’s soldiers.
The strength of Assyria will be burned up
    like a fire burning until everything is gone.
¹⁷ God, the Light of Israel, will be like a fire;
    the Holy One will be like a flame.
He will be like a fire
    that suddenly burns the weeds and thorns.
¹⁸ The fire burns away the great trees and rich farmlands,
    destroying everything.
    It will be like a sick person who wastes away.
