English Standard Version
But he does not so intend, and his heart does not so think; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few;New International Version
But this is not what he intends, this is not what he has in mind; his purpose is to destroy, to put an end to many nations.Catholic Public Domain Version
But he will not consider it to be so, and his heart will not suppose it to be this way. Instead, his heart will be set to crush and to exterminate more than a few nations
