Isaiah 9:11-14 Common English Bible (CEB)

11. So the Lord raised up their foes against them,and stirred up their enemies—

12. Aram from the east and the Philistines from the west—and they devoured Israel with an open mouth.Even then God’s anger didn’t turn away;God’s hand was still extended.

13. But the people didn’t turn to the one who struck them.They didn’t seek the Lord of heavenly forces.

14. So the Lord cut off head and tail,palm branch and reed from Israel in one day.
