[Bibliadatum entry report]

Entry: The word to the Assyrian, the rod of my anger (event-isa-10-woe-to-the-assyrian-the-rod)
Address: https://bibliadatum.org/en/wiki/event/isa-10-woe-to-the-assyrian-the-rod
Current wording: Isaiah 10:5–19: the text says, “Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation! I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me I will give him a command to take the plunder and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. However, he doesn’t mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations. For he says, ‘Aren’t all of my princes kings? Isn’t Calno like Carchemish? Isn’t Hamath like Arpad? Isn’t Samaria like Damascus?’ As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria, shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols? Therefore it will happen that when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his arrogant looks. For he has said, ‘By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers. My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped.’ Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood. Therefore the Lord, GOD of Armies, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire. The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day. He will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints. The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.” These fifteen verses carry no formula naming who speaks. WEB closes at the end of 10:9 the words it opens at 10:8 (“For he says”) and sets 10:10–11 inside no marks of their own; the Korean Revised Version closes the words it opens at 10:8 (이르기를) with 하도다 at the end of 10:11. At 10:12 the Korean Revised Version has the Lord speak in the first person (주 내가 나의 일을 시온산과 예루살렘에 다 행한 후에), where WEB reads “when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem”; and at 10:18 it reads 병인이 점점 쇠약하여 감 같을 것이라, as a sick man wastes away, where WEB reads “It will be as when a standard bearer faints”.
