Isaiah 9:8

8 The Lord has sent a word against Jacob, and it will light upon Israel;

Isaiah 9:8 In-Context

6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government will be upon his shoulder, and his name will be called "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
7 Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David, and over his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and for evermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
8 The Lord has sent a word against Jacob, and it will light upon Israel;
9 and all the people will know, E'phraim and the inhabitants of Sama'ria, who say in pride and in arrogance of heart:
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."
