10 “These bricks have fallen,
    but we will build again with ·cut [hewn; dressed] stones.
These ·small trees [L fig trees; or sycamores] have been chopped down,
    but we will put great cedars there.”
11 But the Lord has brought the enemies of Rezin against them;
    he has ·stirred up [raised up; provoked] their enemies against them.
12 The Arameans [C Syrians] came from the east
    and the Philistines from the west,
and they ·ate up [devoured] Israel with ·their armies [or one bite; L the whole mouth].
But the Lord was still angry;
his hand was still ·raised to punish the people [L outstretched].
