Isaiah 10

הֲלֹא כְּכַרְכְּמִישׁ כַּלְנוֹ אִם-לֹא כְאַרְפַּד חֲמָת אִם-לֹא כְדַמֶּשֶׂק שֹׁמְרֽוֹן׃

עִבְרוּ כַֽלְנֵה וּרְאוּ וּלְכוּ מִשָּׁם חֲמַת רַבָּה וּרְדוּ גַת-פְּלִשְׁתּים הֲטוֹבִים מִן-הַמַּמְלָכוֹת הָאֵלֶּה אִם-רַב גְּבוּלָם מִגְּבֻלְכֶֽם׃

Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: be they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
