Isaiah 41:2
Douay-Rheims
Who hath raised up the just one from the east, hath called him to follow him? he shall give the nations in his sight, and he shall rule over kings: he shall give them as the dust to his sword, as stubble driven by the wind, to his bow.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
Dust and stubble are not objects of the sword or bow, but express utter impotency.
