10. The bricks have fallen down, but we will rebuild with hewn stones: the sycamores are cut down, but we will replace them into cedars.
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 an open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
13. For the people turn not unto him that strikes them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
14. Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in one day.
15. The elder and honorable, he is the head; and the prophet that teaches lies, he is the tail.
16. For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led by them are destroyed.
