1 Now it came about in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Aram and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to wage war against it, but could notaconquer it. 2 When it was reported to the house of David, saying, “The Arameansbhave camped in Ephraim,” his heart and the hearts of his people shook as the trees of the forest shakecwith the wind. | |
3 Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz, you and your sondShear-jashub, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway to theefuller’s field, 4 and say to him, ‘Take care and be calm, have no fear and do not be fainthearted because of these two stubs of smoldering firebrands, on account of the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram and the son of Remaliah. 5 Because Aram, with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has planned evil against you, saying, 6 “Let us go up against Judah andfterrorize it, and make for ourselves a breach ingits walls and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it,” 7 thus says the LordhGOD: “It shall not stand nor shall it come to pass. 8 For the head of Aram is Damascus and the head of Damascus is Rezin (now within another 65 years Ephraim will be shattered, so that it is no longer a people), 9 and the head of Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you will not believe, you surely shall notilast.”’” | |
10 Then the LORD spoke again to Ahaz, saying, 11 “Ask a sign for yourself from the LORD your God;jmake it deep as Sheol or high askheaven.” 12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask, nor will I test the LORD!” 13 Then he said, “Listen now, O house of David! Is it too slight a thing for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God as well? 14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, alvirgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His namemImmanuel. 15 He will eat curds and honeynat the time He knows enough to refuse evil and choose good. 16 For before the boy will know enough to refuse evil and choose good, the land whose two kings you dread will be forsaken. | |
