Isaiah 30:31-33
1599 Geneva Bible
31 For with the voice of the Lord shall Assyria be destroyed, which smote with the [a]rod.
32 And in every place that the staff shall pass, it shall [b]cleave fast, which the Lord shall lay upon him with [c]tabrets and beards and with battles, and lifting up of hands shall he fight [d]against it.
33 For [e]Tophet is prepared of old; it is even prepared for the [f]King; he hath made it [g]deep and large: the burning thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the Lord, like a river of brimstone, doth kindle it.
