1 A nd it came to pass in the daysH3117 of AhazH271 the sonH1121 of Jotham,H3147 the sonH1121 of Uzziah,H5818 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 that RezinH7526 the kingH4428 of Syria,H758 and PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of Remaliah,H7425 kingH4428 of Israel,H3478 went upH5927 to JerusalemH3389 to warH4421 against it, but couldH3201 not prevailH3898 against it.
2 And it was toldH5046 the houseH1004 of David,H1732 saying,H559 SyriaH758 is confederateH5117 with Ephraim.H669 And his heartH3824 trembled,H5128 and the heartH3824 of his people,H5971 as the treesH6086 of the forestH3293 trembleH5128 withH6440 the wind.H7307
3 Then saidH559 JehovahH3068 unto Isaiah,H3470 Go forthH3318 now to meetH7125 Ahaz,H271 thou, and Shear-jashubH7610 thy son,H1121 at the endH7097 of the conduitH8585 of the upperH5945 pool,H1295 in the highwayH4546 of the fuller'sH3526 field;H7704
4 and sayH559 unto him, Take heed,H8104 and be quiet;H8252 fearH3372 not, neither let thy heart be faint,H7401 because of these twoH8147 tailsH2180 of smokingH6226 firebrands,H181 for the fierceH2750 angerH639 of RezinH7526 and Syria,H758 and of the sonH1121 of Remaliah.H7425
5 Because Syria,H758 Ephraim,H669 and the sonH1121 of Remaliah,H7425 have purposedH3289 evilH7451 against thee, saying,H559
6 Let us go upH5927 against Judah,H3063 and vexH6973 it, and let us make a breachH1234 therein for us, and setH4427 up a kingH4428 in the midstH8432 of it, even the sonH1121 of Tabeel;H2870
7 thusH3541 saithH559 the LordH136 Jehovah,H3069 It shall not stand,H6965 neither shall it come to pass.
8 For the headH7218 of SyriaH758 is Damascus,H1834 and the headH7218 of DamascusH1834 is Rezin;H7526 and within threescoreH8346 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 shall EphraimH669 be brokenH2865 in pieces, so that it shall not be a people:H5971
9 and the headH7218 of EphraimH669 is Samaria,H8111 and the headH7218 of SamariaH8111 is Remaliah'sH7425 son.H1121 If ye will not believe,H539 surely ye shall not be established.H539
10 And JehovahH3068 spakeH1696 againH3254 unto Ahaz,H271 saying,H559
11 AskH7592 thee a signH226 of JehovahH3068 thy God;H430 askH7592 it either in the depth,H6009 or in the heightH1361 above.H4605
12 But AhazH271 said,H559 I will not ask,H7592 neither will I temptH5254 Jehovah.H3068
13 And he said,H559 HearH8085 ye now, O houseH1004 of David:H1732 Is it a small thingH4592 for you to wearyH3811 men,H582 that ye will wearyH3811 my GodH430 also?
14 Therefore the LordH136 himself will giveH5414 you a sign:H226 behold, a virginH5959 shall conceive,H2030 and bearH3205 a son,H1121 and shall callH7121 his nameH8034 Immanuel.H6005
15 ButterH2529 and honeyH1706 shall he eat,H398 when he knowethH3045 to refuseH3988 the evil,H7451 and chooseH977 the good.H2896
16 For before the childH5288 shall knowH3045 to refuseH3988 the evil,H7451 and chooseH977 the good,H2896 the landH127 whose twoH8147 kingsH4428 thou abhorrestH6973 shall beH6440 forsaken.H5800
17 JehovahH3068 will bringH935 upon thee, and upon thy people,H5971 and upon thy father'sH1 house,H1004 daysH3117 that have not come,H935 from the dayH3117 that EphraimH669 departedH5493 from [Judah—]H3063 [even] the kingH4428 of Assyria.H804
18 And it shall come to pass in that day,H3117 that JehovahH3068 will hissH8319 for the flyH2070 that is in the uttermost partH7097 of the riversH2975 of Egypt,H4714 and for the beeH1682 that is in the landH776 of Assyria.H804
19 And they shall come,H935 and shall restH5117 all of them in the desolateH1327 valleys,H5158 and in the cleftsH5357 of the rocks,H5553 and upon all thorn-hedges,H5285 and upon all pastures.H5097
20 In that dayH3117 will the LordH136 shaveH1548 with a razorH8593 that is hiredH7917 in the parts beyondH5676 the River,H5104 [even] with the kingH4428 of Assyria,H804 the headH7218 and the hairH8181 of the feet;H7272 and it shall also consumeH5595 the beard.H2206
21 And it shall come to pass in that day,H3117 that a manH376 shall keep aliveH2421 a youngH1241 cow,H5697 and twoH8147 sheep;H6629
22 and it shall come to pass, that because of the abundanceH7230 of milkH2461 which they shall giveH6213 he shall eatH398 butter:H2529 for butterH2529 and honeyH1706 shall every one eatH398 that is leftH3498 inH7130 the midst of the land.H776
23 And it shall come to pass in that day,H3117 that every place,H4725 where there were a thousandH505 vinesH1612 at a thousandH505 silverlings,H3701 shall be for briersH8068 and thorns.H7898
24 With arrowsH2671 and with bowH7198 shall one comeH935 thither, because all the landH776 shall be briersH8068 and thorns.H7898
25 And all the hillsH2022 that were diggedH5737 with the mattock,H4576 thou shalt not come thitherH935 for fearH3374 of briersH8068 and thorns;H7898 but it shall be for the sending forthH4916 of oxen,H7794 and for the treadingH4823 of sheep.H7716
