Dual Panel1And it came to pass in the days <03117> of Ahaz <0271> the son <01121> of Jotham <03147>_, the son <01121> of Uzziah <05818>_, king <04428> of Judah <03063>_, [that] Rezin <07526> the king <04428> of Syria <0758>_, and Pekah <06492> the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>_, king <04428> of Israel <03478>_, went up <05927> (8804) toward Jerusalem <03389> to war <04421> against it, but could <03201> (8804) not prevail <03898> (8736) against it.
2And it was told <05046> (8714) the house <01004> of David <01732>_, saying <0559> (8800)_, Syria <0758> is confederate <05117> (8804) with Ephraim <0669>_. And his heart <03824> was moved <05128> (8799)_, and the heart <03824> of his people <05971>_, as the trees <06086> of the wood <03293> are moved <05128> (8800) with <06440> the wind <07307>_. {is confederate...: Heb. resteth on}
3Then said <0559> (8799) the LORD <03068> unto Isaiah <03470>_, Go forth <03318> (8798) now to meet <07125> (8800) Ahaz <0271>_, thou, and Shearjashub <07610> thy son <01121>_, at the end <07097> of the conduit <08585> of the upper <05945> pool <01295> in the highway <04546> of the fuller's <03526> (8801) field <07704>_; {Shearjashub: that is, The remnant shall return} {highway: or, causeway}
4And say <0559> (8804) unto him, Take heed <08104> (8734)_, and be quiet <08252> (8685)_; fear <03372> (8799) not, neither be fainthearted <07401> (8735) <03824> for the two <08147> tails <02180> of these smoking <06226> firebrands <0181>_, for the fierce <02750> anger <0639> of Rezin <07526> with Syria <0758>_, and of the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>_. {neither...: Heb. let not thy heart be tender}
5Because Syria <0758>_, Ephraim <0669>_, and the son <01121> of Remaliah <07425>_, have taken evil <07451> counsel <03289> (8804) against thee, saying <0559> (8800)_,
6Let us go up <05927> (8799) against Judah <03063>_, and vex <06973> (8686) it, and let us make a breach <01234> (8686) therein for us, and set <04427> (8686) a king <04428> in the midst <08432> of it, [even] the son <01121> of Tabeal <02870>_: {vex: or, waken}
7Thus <03541> saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>_, It shall not stand <06965> (8799)_, neither shall it come to pass.
8For the head <07218> of Syria <0758> [is] Damascus <01834>_, and the head <07218> of Damascus <01834> [is] Rezin <07526>_; and within threescore <08346> and five <02568> years <08141> shall Ephraim <0669> be broken <02865> (8735)_, that it be not a people <05971>_. {that...: Heb. from a people}
9And the head <07218> of Ephraim <0669> [is] Samaria <08111>_, and the head <07218> of Samaria <08111> [is] Remaliah's <07425> son <01121>_. If ye will not believe <0539> (8686)_, surely ye shall not be established <0539> (8735)_. {If...: or, Do ye not believe? it is because ye are not stable}
10Moreover the LORD <03068> spake <01696> (8763) again <03254> (8686) unto Ahaz <0271>_, saying <0559> (8800)_, {Moreover...: Heb. And the LORD added to speak}
11Ask <07592> (8798) thee a sign <0226> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>_; ask <07592> (8800) it either in the depth <06009> (8685)_, or in the height <01361> (8687) above <04605>_. {ask it...: or, make thy petition deep}
12But Ahaz <0271> said <0559> (8799)_, I will not ask <07592> (8799)_, neither will I tempt <05254> (8762) <0853> the LORD <03068>_.
13And he said <0559> (8799)_, Hear <08085> (8798) ye now, O house <01004> of David <01732>_; [Is it] a small thing <04592> for you to weary <03811> (8687) men <0582>_, but will ye weary <03811> (8686) my God <0430> also?
14Therefore the Lord <0136> himself shall give <05414> (8799) you a sign <0226>_; Behold, a virgin <05959> shall conceive <02030>_, and bear <03205> (8802) a son <01121>_, and shall call <07121> (8804) his name <08034> Immanuel <0410> <06005>_. {shall call: or, thou, O virgin, shalt call}
15Butter <02529> and honey <01706> shall he eat <0398> (8799)_, that he may know <03045> (8800) to refuse <03988> (8800) the evil <07451>_, and choose <0977> (8800) the good <02896>_.
16For before the child <05288> shall know <03045> (8799) to refuse <03988> (8800) the evil <07451>_, and choose <0977> (8800) the good <02896>_, the land <0127> that thou abhorrest <06973> (8801) shall be <06440> forsaken <05800> (8735) of both <08147> her kings <04428>_.
17The LORD <03068> shall bring <0935> (8686) upon thee, and upon thy people <05971>_, and upon thy father's <01> house <01004>_, days <03117> that have not come <0935> (8804)_, from the day <03117> that Ephraim <0669> departed <05493> (8800) from Judah <03063>_; [even] the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>_.
18And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>_, [that] the LORD <03068> shall hiss <08319> (8799) for the fly <02070> that [is] in the uttermost part <07097> of the rivers <02975> of Egypt <04714>_, and for the bee <01682> that [is] in the land <0776> of Assyria <0804>_.
19And they shall come <0935> (8804)_, and shall rest <05117> (8804) all of them in the desolate <01327> valleys <05158>_, and in the holes <05357> of the rocks <05553>_, and upon all thorns <05285>_, and upon all bushes <05097>_. {bushes: or, commendable trees}
20In the same day <03117> shall the Lord <0136> shave <01548> (8762) with a razor <08593> that is hired <07917>_, [namely], by them beyond <05676> the river <05104>_, by the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>_, the head <07218>_, and the hair <08181> of the feet <07272>_: and it shall also consume <05595> (8799) the beard <02206>_.
21And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>_, [that] a man <0376> shall nourish <02421> (8762) a young <01241> cow <05697>_, and two <08147> sheep <06629>_;
22And it shall come to pass, for the abundance <07230> of milk <02461> [that] they shall give <06213> (8800) he shall eat <0398> (8799) butter <02529>_: for butter <02529> and honey <01706> shall every one eat <0398> (8799) that is left <03498> (8737) in <07130> the land <0776>_. {the land: Heb. the midst of the land}
23And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>_, [that] every place <04725> shall be, where there were a thousand <0505> vines <01612> at a thousand <0505> silverlings <03701>_, it shall [even] be for briers <08068> and thorns <07898>_.
24With arrows <02671> and with bows <07198> shall [men] come <0935> (8799) thither; because all the land <0776> shall become briers <08068> and thorns <07898>_.
25And [on] all hills <02022> that shall be digged <05737> (8735) with the mattock <04576>_, there shall not come thither <0935> (8799) the fear <03374> of briers <08068> and thorns <07898>_: but it shall be for the sending forth <04916> of oxen <07794>_, and for the treading <04823> of lesser cattle <07716>_.
