Isaiah 9:10-12

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁰ “The bricks have fallen,
    but we will build with dressed stones;
the sycamores have been cut down,
    but we will put cedars in their place.”
¹¹ So the Lord raised adversaries^[a] against them
    and stirred up their enemies,^(A)
12 the Arameans on the east and the Philistines on the west,
    and they devoured Israel with open mouth.
For all this his anger has not turned away;
    his hand is stretched out still.^(B)
