9 And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in pride and arrogance of heart,
10 The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones; the wild fig trees are cut down, but we will put cedars in their place.
11 Therefore the Lord shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him and join his enemies together,
12 the Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
13 But the people did not turn unto him that smote them, neither did they seek the Lord of the hosts.
14 Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
15 The ancient and venerable to look upon is the head; the prophet that teaches lies, he is the tail.
