7 His reign will be increased, and there will be no end to his peace. He will sit upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to confirm and strengthen it, in judgment and justice, from now even unto eternity. The zeal of the Lord of hosts shall accomplish this.
8 The Lord sent a word to Jacob, and it fell upon Israel.
9 And all the people of Ephraim will know it. And the inhabitants of Samaria will say it, in the arrogance and haughtiness of their heart:
10 "The bricks have fallen, but we will build with squared stones. They have cut down the sycamores, but we will replace them with cedars."
11 And the Lord will raise up the enemies of Rezin over him, and he will turn his adversaries into a tumult:
12 the Syrians from the east and the Philistines from the west. And they will devour Israel with their whole mouth. After all this, his fury was not turned away; instead, his hand was still extended.
13 And the people did not return to the One who struck them, and they did not seek the Lord of hosts.
