Isaiah 31:8-9

Expanded Bible

⁸ “Assyria will ·be defeated [fall] by a sword, but not ·the sword of a person [of man];
    Assyria will be ·destroyed [devoured], but not by a person’s sword.
Assyria will run away from the ·sword of God [^Lsword],
    but its young men will be caught and made slaves.
⁹ ·They will panic, and [From terror] their ·protection [or strong ones; rock] will be destroyed.
    Their ·commanders [officers; princes] will be terrified when they see ·God’s battle flag [^Lthe standard/flag],”
says the Lord,
    whose fire is in ·Jerusalem [^LZion; 1:27]
and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
