For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land.

The verse 23 is found in chapter 10 of Isaiah. Assyria is described as an instrument used by God to punish, yet its pride will also be judged. The Assyrian king attributes his conquests to his own strength and wisdom, ignoring that Yahweh used him as an instrument. The passage develops a fundamental paradox of divine sovereignty: God can employ an ungodly power without approving its arrogance.

Denn der Herr, HERR Zebaoth wird ein Verderben gehen lassen, wie beschlossen ist, im ganzen Lande.
Pues el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos hará consumación y fenecimiento en medio de la tierra.
Porque el Señor, Jehová de los ejércitos, ejecutará la destrucción decretada en medio de toda la tierra.
Et cette destruction qui a été résolue, Le Seigneur, l'Eternel des armées, l'accomplira dans tout le pays.
Perciocchè il Signore Iddio degli eserciti manda ad esecuzione una sentenza finale, ed una determinazione in mezzo di tutta la terra
Porque determinada já a destruição, o Senhor DEUS dos Exércitos a executará no meio de toda esta terra.
因為萬軍之主耶和華在全地必成就所定的滅絕之事。
