Woe to Assyria, the rod of my anger— the staff in their hands is my wrath.

Fire has gone out from its main branch and has devoured its fruit, so that it no longer has a strong branch, a scepter for ruling. This is a lament and should be used as a lament.”

It is sharpened for slaughter, polished to flash like lightning! Should we rejoice? The scepter of my son, the sword despises every tree.

The proud speech of a fool brings a rod of discipline, but the lips of the wise protect them.

Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, and to the fading flower of its beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley. Woe to those overcome with wine.

Surely it will be a trial! And what if the sword despises even the scepter? The scepter will not continue.” This is the declaration of the Lord GOD.

But he gives greater grace. Therefore he says: God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt, and glorify the King of the heavens, because all his works are true and his ways are just. He is able to humble those who walk in pride.

An end has come; the end has come! It has awakened against you. Look, it is coming!

Pride comes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.
