10 So the Lord raises up their foes against themand stirs up their enemies to action—
11 Aram from the east and the Philistines from the west—they devour Israel with open mouth.For all this, his wrath is not turned back,and his hand is still outstretched!
12 The people do not turn back to the one who struck them,nor do they seek the Lord of hosts.
13 So the Lord cuts off from Israel head and tail,palm branch and reed in one day.
14 (The elder and the noble are the head,the prophet who teaches falsehood is the tail.)
15 Those who lead this people lead them astray,and those who are led are swallowed up.
16 That is why the Lord does not spare their young men,and their orphans and widows he does not pity;For they are totally impious and wicked,and every mouth speaks folly.For all this, his wrath is not turned back,his hand is still outstretched!
