For Israel has behaved extremely stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer. Then how will Yahweh feed them like a lamb in a meadow.
The Revised Standard Version makes the last clause of this verse interrogative, with the meaning implied that the "large place" is desirable, having the sense, "Can the Lord now feed them in a large place, since they have rebelled?"  Of course the negative is implied anyway; and, for this reason, it is better to accept the ASV, as in the text we are using.
