* I will stretch.
   This metaphor is taken from the custom of using a line in
   measuring land, and in dividing portions of it among several
   persons.  Samaria was taken, pillaged, and ruined, and its
   inhabitants carried into captivity:  Jerusalem shall have the
   same measure.

  17:6  Isa 10:22  28:17  34:11  La 2:8  Eze 23:31-34  Am 7:7,8 
  Zec 1:16 
 * the plummet.
  10:11  1Ki 21:21-24 
 * I will wipe.
   I will empty Jerusalem of all its wealth and inhabitants, as
   truly as a dish turned up and wiped is emptied of its
   contents.

  1Ki 14:10  Isa 14:23  Jer 25:9  Eze 24:10,11  Re 18:21-23 
 * wiping it, and turning it upside down.  Heb. he wipeth and
   turneth it upon the face thereof.
