And it came to pass in the days
of Ahaz
the son
of Jotham,
the son
of Uzziah,
king
of Judah,
that Rezin
the king
of Syria,
and Pekah
the son
of Remaliah,
king
of Israel,
went up
toward Jerusalem
to war
against it, but could
not prevail
against it.

And it was told
the house
of David,
saying,
Syria
is confederate
with Ephraim.
And his heart
was moved,
and the heart
of his people,
as the trees
of the wood
are moved
with
the wind.

Then said
the LORD
unto Isaiah,
Go forth
now to meet
Ahaz,
thou, and Shearjashub
thy son,
at the end
of the conduit
of the upper
pool
in the highway
of the fuller's
field;

And say
unto him, Take heed,
and be quiet;
fear
not, neither be fainthearted
for the two
tails
of these smoking
firebrands,
for the fierce
anger
of Rezin
with Syria,
and of the son
of Remaliah.

Because Syria,
Ephraim,
and the son
of Remaliah,
have taken evil
counsel
against thee, saying,
Let us go up
against Judah,
and vex
it, and let us make a breach
therein for us, and set
a king
in the midst
of it, even the son
of Tabeal:
Thus
saith
the Lord
GOD,
It shall not stand,
neither shall it come to pass.
For the head
of Syria
is Damascus,
and the head
of Damascus
is Rezin;
and within threescore
and five
years
shall Ephraim
be broken,
that it be not a people.
And the head
of Ephraim
is Samaria,
and the head
of Samaria
is Remaliah's
son.
If ye will not believe,
surely ye shall not be established.
Moreover the LORD
spake
again
unto Ahaz,
saying,
Ask
thee a sign
of the LORD
thy God;
ask
it either in the depth,
or in the height
above.
But Ahaz
said,
I will not ask,
neither will I tempt
the LORD.
And he said,
Hear
ye now, O house
of David;
Is it a small thing
for you to weary
men,
but will ye weary
my God
also?
Therefore the Lord
himself shall give
you a sign;
Behold, a virgin
shall conceive,
and bear
a son,
and shall call
his name
Immanuel.
Butter
and honey
shall he eat,
that he may know
to refuse
the evil,
and choose
the good.
For before the child
shall know
to refuse
the evil,
and choose
the good,
the land
that thou abhorrest
shall be
forsaken
of both
her kings.
The LORD
shall bring
upon thee, and upon thy people,
and upon thy father's
house,
days
that have not come,
from the day
that Ephraim
departed
from Judah;
even the king
of Assyria.

And it shall come to pass in that day,
that the LORD
shall hiss
for the fly
that is in the uttermost part
of the rivers
of Egypt,
and for the bee
that is in the land
of Assyria.

In the same day
shall the Lord

by the king

and the hair
of the feet:
and it shall also consume

And it shall come to pass in that day,
that a man
shall nourish
a young
cow,

And it shall come to pass, for the abundance
of milk
that they shall give
he shall eat
butter:
for butter
and honey
shall every one eat
that is left
in
the land.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
that every place
shall be, where there were a thousand
vines
at a thousand
silverlings,
it shall even be for briers
and thorns.
With arrows
and with bows
shall men come
thither; because all the land
shall become briers
and thorns.
And on all hills
that shall be digged
with the mattock,
there shall not come thither
the fear
of briers
and thorns:
but it shall be for the sending forth
of oxen,
and for the treading
of lesser cattle.
