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. 13 For he says: ‘By the strength of my hand I have done this, and by my wisdom, for I am clever.

Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth. No wing fluttered, no beak opened or chirped.’”
