7:1 And it came to pass in the days 3117 of Ahaz 271 the son 1121 of Jotham 3147, the son 1121 of Uzziah 5818, king 4428 of Judah 3063, [that] Rezin 7526 the king 4428 of Syria 758, and Pekah 6492 the son 1121 of Remaliah 7425, king 4428 of Israel 3478, went up 5927 8804 toward Jerusalem 3389 to war 4421 against it, but could 3201 8804 not prevail 3898 8736 against it.

7:2 And it was told 5046 8714 the house 1004 of David 1732, saying 559 8800, Syria 758 is confederate 5117 8804 with Ephraim 669. And his heart 3824 was moved 5128 8799, and the heart 3824 of his people 5971, as the trees 6086 of the wood 3293 are moved 5128 8800 with 6440 the wind 7307.(is confederate…: Heb. resteth on)

7:3 Then said 559 8799 the LORD 3068 unto Isaiah 3470, Go forth 3318 8798 now to meet 7125 8800 Ahaz 271, thou, and Shearjashub 7610 thy son 1121, at the end 7097 of the conduit 8585 of the upper 5945 pool 1295 in the highway 4546 of the fuller's 3526 8801 field 7704;(Shearjashub: that is, The remnant shall return)(highway: or, causeway)

7:4 And say 559 8804 unto him, Take heed 8104 8734, and be quiet 8252 8685; fear 3372 8799 not, neither be fainthearted 7401 8735 3824 for the two 8147 tails 2180 of these smoking 6226 firebrands 181, for the fierce 2750 anger 639 of Rezin 7526 with Syria 758, and of the son 1121 of Remaliah 7425.(neither…: Heb. let not thy heart be tender)

7:5 Because Syria 758, Ephraim 669, and the son 1121 of Remaliah 7425, have taken evil 7451 counsel 3289 8804 against thee, saying 559 8800,

7:6 Let us go up 5927 8799 against Judah 3063, and vex 6973 8686 it, and let us make a breach 1234 8686 therein for us, and set 4427 8686 a king 4428 in the midst 8432 of it, [even] the son 1121 of Tabeal 2870:(vex: or, waken)

7:7 Thus 3541 saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069, It shall not stand 6965 8799, neither shall it come to pass.

7:8 For the head 7218 of Syria 758 [is] Damascus 1834, and the head 7218 of Damascus 1834 [is] Rezin 7526; and within threescore 8346 and five 2568 years 8141 shall Ephraim 669 be broken 2865 8735, that it be not a people 5971.(that…: Heb. from a people)

7:9 And the head 7218 of Ephraim 669 [is] Samaria 8111, and the head 7218 of Samaria 8111 [is] Remaliah's 7425 son 1121. If ye will not believe 539 8686, surely ye shall not be established 539 8735.(If…: or, Do ye not believe? it is because ye are not stable)

7:10 Moreover the LORD 3068 spake 1696 8763 again 3254 8686 unto Ahaz 271, saying 559 8800,(Moreover…: Heb. And the LORD added to speak)

7:11 Ask 7592 8798 thee a sign 226 of the LORD 3068 thy God 430; ask 7592 8800 it either in the depth 6009 8685, or in the height 1361 8687 above 4605.(ask it…: or, make thy petition deep)

7:12 But Ahaz 271 said 559 8799, I will not ask 7592 8799, neither will I tempt 5254 8762 853 the LORD 3068.

7:13 And he said 559 8799, Hear 8085 8798 ye now, O house 1004 of David 1732; [Is it] a small thing 4592 for you to weary 3811 8687 men 582, but will ye weary 3811 8686 my God 430 also?

7:14 Therefore the Lord 136 himself shall give 5414 8799 you a sign 226; Behold, a virgin 5959 shall conceive 2030, and bear 3205 8802 a son 1121, and shall call 7121 8804 his name 8034 Immanuel 410 6005.(shall call: or, thou, O virgin, shalt call)

7:15 Butter 2529 and honey 1706 shall he eat 398 8799, that he may know 3045 8800 to refuse 3988 8800 the evil 7451, and choose 977 8800 the good 2896.

7:16 For before the child 5288 shall know 3045 8799 to refuse 3988 8800 the evil 7451, and choose 977 8800 the good 2896, the land 127 that thou abhorrest 6973 8801 shall be 6440 forsaken 5800 8735 of both 8147 her kings 4428.

7:17 The LORD 3068 shall bring 935 8686 upon thee, and upon thy people 5971, and upon thy father's 1 house 1004, days 3117 that have not come 935 8804, from the day 3117 that Ephraim 669 departed 5493 8800 from Judah 3063; [even] the king 4428 of Assyria 804.

7:18 And it shall come to pass in that day 3117, [that] the LORD 3068 shall hiss 8319 8799 for the fly 2070 that [is] in the uttermost part 7097 of the rivers 2975 of Egypt 4714, and for the bee 1682 that [is] in the land 776 of Assyria 804.

7:19 And they shall come 935 8804, and shall rest 5117 8804 all of them in the desolate 1327 valleys 5158, and in the holes 5357 of the rocks 5553, and upon all thorns 5285, and upon all bushes 5097.(bushes: or, commendable trees)

7:20 In the same day 3117 shall the Lord 136 shave 1548 8762 with a razor 8593 that is hired 7917, [namely], by them beyond 5676 the river 5104, by the king 4428 of Assyria 804, the head 7218, and the hair 8181 of the feet 7272: and it shall also consume 5595 8799 the beard 2206.

7:21 And it shall come to pass in that day 3117, [that] a man 376 shall nourish 2421 8762 a young 1241 cow 5697, and two 8147 sheep 6629;

7:22 And it shall come to pass, for the abundance 7230 of milk 2461 [that] they shall give 6213 8800 he shall eat 398 8799 butter 2529: for butter 2529 and honey 1706 shall every one eat 398 8799 that is left 3498 8737 in 7130 the land 776.(the land: Heb. the midst of the land)

7:23 And it shall come to pass in that day 3117, [that] every place 4725 shall be, where there were a thousand 505 vines 1612 at a thousand 505 silverlings 3701, it shall [even] be for briers 8068 and thorns 7898.

7:24 With arrows 2671 and with bows 7198 shall [men] come 935 8799 thither; because all the land 776 shall become briers 8068 and thorns 7898.

7:25 And [on] all hills 2022 that shall be digged 5737 8735 with the mattock 4576, there shall not come thither 935 8799 the fear 3374 of briers 8068 and thorns 7898: but it shall be for the sending forth 4916 of oxen 7794, and for the treading 4823 of lesser cattle 7716.
