Isaiah 9:8-12
Judgment against Israel’s Pride
8 The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
8:
9 And all the people shall know, [even] Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
9:
10 The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change [them into] cedars.
10:
11 Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together;
11:
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.
12:
