Isaiah 10:8 in context

The verses around it, from Isaiah 10.

4 Nothing will remain but to crouch among the captives or fall among the slain. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.

5 Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger; the staff in their hands is My wrath.

6 I will send him against a godless nation; I will dispatch him against a people destined for My rage, to take spoils and seize plunder, and to trample them down like clay in the streets.

7 But this is not his intention; this is not his plan. For it is in his heart to destroy and cut off many nations.

8 “Are not all my commanders kings?” he says.

9 “Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?

10 As my hand seized the idolatrous kingdoms whose images surpassed those of Jerusalem and Samaria,

11 and as I have done to Samaria and its idols, will I not also do to Jerusalem and her idols?”

12 So when the Lord has completed all His work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, He will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the fruit of his arrogant heart and the proud look in his eyes.
