Isaiah 9:9–10

and all the people will know,

Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria,

who say in pride and in arrogance of heart:

“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.”

All the people—

Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria—will know it.

They will say with pride and arrogance,

“The bricks have fallen,

but we will rebuild with cut stones;

the sycamores have been cut down,

but we will replace them with cedars.”

And the people of Israel and Samaria,

who spoke with such pride and arrogance,

will soon know it.

They said, “We will replace the broken bricks of our ruins with finished stone,

and replant the felled sycamore-fig trees with cedars.”

And all of the people knew it,

Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria

in pride and arrogance of heart, saying,

“The bricks have fallen, but we will build with dressed stone.

The sycamore-fig trees were felled, but we will replace them with cedars.”

And all the people shall know,

Even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria,

That say in the pride and stoutness of heart,

The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones:

The sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.
