Yahweh’s Anger with Israel’s Arrogance

The Lord sends a [a]message against Jacob,
And it falls on Israel.
And all the people know it,
That is, (A)Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria,
Saying in lofty pride and in (B)arrogance of heart:

But we will (C)rebuild with cut stones;
The sycamores have been cut in pieces,
But we will replace them with cedars.”
