Isaiah10:7

7 Howbeit, he meaneth not so , neither doth his heart think so, but it is in his heart to destroy, and cut off nations not a few .

He doth not at all design the Execution of my Will, and the Glory of my Justice, in punishing mine Enemies; but onely to enlarge his own Empire, and satisfie his own Lusts. Which is seasonably added, to justifie God in his Judgments threatned to the Assyrian, notwithstanding this Service.

To sacrifice multitudes of People to his own Ambition and Covetousness; which is abominable Impiety.

Marginal references: Mic. 4. 12.; Heb. will not mean so, nor will his heart think so.
