Isaiah 10:3-6 in English

³ And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?

⁴ They shall only bow down under the prisoners, and shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

⁵ Ho Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, the staff in whose hand is mine indignation!

⁶ I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

³ And what will they do in the day of visitation? for affliction shall come to you from afar: and to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory,

⁴ that ye may not fall into captivity? For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is yet exalted.

⁵ Woe to the Assyrians; the rod of my wrath, and anger are in their hands.

³ When I punish you by sending people from distant lands to cause you to experience disasters, ◄to whom will you run to get help?/there will be no one who can help you.► RHQ Your valuable possessions will certainly not be safe RHQ anywhere.

⁴ You will be able only to stumble along as you are taken away with other prisoners, or else your corpses will lie on the ground with others who have been killed. But even after that happens, Yahweh will still be very angry with you. He will still be ready to strike you again with his fist.

⁵ Yahweh says, “Terrible things will happen to Assyria. It is true that their army is like a rod/club DOU with which I punish other nations because I am very angry with those nations DOU.

⁶ Sometimes I send the armies of Assyria to attack a godless nation, to fight against other people who have caused me to be angry. I send them to capture people and to seize and take away their possessions, and to trample them like SIM people walk on mud in the streets.

³ And what will they do in the day of visitation? for affliction shall come to you from afar: and to whom will you° flee for help? and where will you° leave your glory,
