9All the people will know it —
Ephraim and the dwellers of Samaria.
With pride and arrogance of heart
they will say:
10“The bricks have fallen,
but we will rebuild with finished stone;
the sycamores have been felled,
but we will replace them with cedars.”
11The LORD has raised up the foes of Rezin against him
and joined his enemies together.
12Aram from the east and Philistia from the west
have devoured Israel with open mouths.
Despite all this, His anger is not turned away;
His hand is still upraised.
— Isaiah 9:9-12
