NIVNew International Version (2011)

‘Are not my commanders all kings?’ he says.

‘Has not Kalno fared like Carchemish?

Is not Hamath like Arpad,

and Samaria like Damascus?

As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols,

kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—

shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images

as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?’ ”

When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

For he says,

“Aren’t all my commanders kings?

Isn’t Calno like Carchemish?

Isn’t Hamath like Arpad?

Isn’t Samaria like Damascus?

As my hand seized the kingdoms of worthless images,

kingdoms whose idols exceeded those of Jerusalem and Samaria,

and as I did to Samaria and its worthless images

will I not also do to Jerusalem and its idols?”

But when the Lord finishes all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for his arrogant acts and the proud look in his eyes.”

NLTNew Living Translation

He will say,

‘Each of my princes will soon be a king.

We destroyed Calno just as we did Carchemish.

Hamath fell before us as Arpad did.

And we destroyed Samaria just as we did Damascus.

Yes, we have finished off many a kingdom

whose gods were greater than those in Jerusalem and Samaria.

So we will defeat Jerusalem and her gods,

just as we destroyed Samaria with hers.’ ”

After the Lord has used the king of Assyria to accomplish his purposes on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, he will turn against the king of Assyria and punish him—for he is proud and arrogant.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

For he says, “Are not my commanders altogether kings?

Is not Calno like Carchemish?

Is not Hamath like Arpad?

Is not Samaria like Damascus?

As my hand has reached to the kingdoms of the idols

—and their images were greater than those of Jerusalem and Samaria—

shall I not do to Jerusalem and its idols

what I have done to Samaria and her idols?”

And this shall happen: when the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, “I will punish the arrogance of the king of Assyria and his haughtiness.”

KJV 1900King James Version

For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings?

Is not Calno as Carchemish?

Is not Hamath as Arpad?

Is not Samaria as Damascus?

As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols,

And whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;

Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols,

So do to Jerusalem and her idols?

Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work

Upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem,

I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria,

And the glory of his high looks.
