Isaiah 31:8

8 And Assur will fall by a sword not of man, and a sword not of man will devour him. And he will not flee from the face of the sword, and his young men will be subject to a penalty. ^{▼▼31:8The phrase ‘vectigales erunt’ usually refers to persons who are subject to the payment of a tribute, after they have been conquered. In this context, it refers to some penalty after having been defeated, perhaps not a monetary one.(Conte)}
