Isaiah 10:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷But this is not what he intends,
and this is not what he thinks in his mind;
but it is in his mind to destroy,
and to cut down^[a] many nations.

⁸“Because this is what he is saying:
    ‘My commanders are all kings, are they not?
⁹Isn’t Calno like Carchemish?
    Isn’t Hamath like Arpad?
        Isn’t Samaria like Damascus?
