the kingº
of Syria,º
and Pekahº
the sonº
of Remaliah,º

the houseº
of David,º
saying,ºº
Syriaº
is confederateºº
withº
Ephraim.º

of his people,º
as the treesº

are movedºº
withºº
the wind.º |

Yahwehº
untoº
Isaiah,º
Go forthºº
nowº
to meetººº
Ahaz,º
thou,º
and Shearjashubº
thy son,º
atº
the endº
of the conduitº

untoº
him, Take heed,ºº
and be quiet;ºº
fearºº
not,º
neitherº
be faintheartedººº
for the twoºº
tailsº
of theseº
smokingº
firebrands,º
for the fierceº
angerº
of Rezinº
with Syria,º
and of the sonº
of Remaliah.º |
|

have taken evilº
counselºº
againstº
thee, saying,ºº |
|
7:6
We will go up against Judah{gr.Judea}, and having conferred with them we will turn them away to our side, and we will make the son of Tabeel king of it; |
|
7:6
Let us go upºº
against Judah,º
and vexººº
it, and let us make a breachºº
therein forº
us, and setºº
a kingºº
in the midstº
of it, [even]º
the sonº
of Tabeal:º |
|
7:7
thus saith the Lord of hosts, This counsel shall not abide, nor come to pass. |

It shall notº

neitherº
shall it come to pass.º |

of Syriaº
[is] Damascus,º
and the headº
of Damascusº
[is] Rezin;º
and withinº
threescoreº
and fiveº
yearsº
shall Ephraimº
be broken,ººº
that it be not a people.ºº |
|
7:9

And the headº
of Ephraimº
[is] Samaria,º
and the headº
of Samariaº

son.º
Ifº

believe,ºº
surelyº
ye shall notº
be established.ºº |

saying,ºº |
|
7:11
Ask for thyself a sign of the Lord thy God, in the depth or in the height. |
|
7:11
Askºº
thee a signº
ofºº
Yahwehº

ask,ºº
neitherº
will I temptººº
Yahweh.º |

And he said,ºº
Hearºº
ye now,º
O houseº
of David;º
[Is it] a small thingº
forº
you to wearyºº
men,ºº
butº
will ye wearyººº
my Elohimº
also?º |

to refuseºº
the evil,º

the good,º
the landº
thatº
thouº
abhorrestºº
shall beº
forsakenºº
of bothº
her kings.º |

and upon allº
thorns,º
and upon allº
bushes.º |

eatºº
that is leftºº
inº
the land.º |
|

in thatº
day,º

it shall [even] beº
for briersº

hillsº
thatº
shall be diggedºº
with the mattock,º
there shall notº

but it shall beº
for the sending forthº
of oxen,º
and for the treadingº
of lesser cattle.º |
