LEB(i)
1 This happened in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah. Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went* up to Jerusalem for warfare against it,* but he was not able to fight against it.*
2 When it was reported to the house of David, saying "Aram stands by Ephraim," his heart and the heart of his people shook like the shaking of the trees of the forest because of the wind.
3 Then Yahweh said to Isaiah, "Go out to meet Ahaz, you and Shear-Jashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool on the highway of the washer's field.
4 And you must say to him, 'Take heed and be quiet! You must not fear, and your heart must not be faint because of these two stumps of smoldering firebrands, ⌊because of the fierce anger of⌋* Rezin and Aram and the son of Remaliah.
5 Because Aram has plotted evil against you with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying,
6 "Let us go up against Judah and let us tear her apart, ⌊and let us lay it open and so bring it unto ourselves⌋,* and let us install the son of Tabeel as king in her midst."
7 Thus says the Lord Yahweh, "It shall not stand, and it shall not come to pass.
8 For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin, and in sixty-five years from now Ephraim will be too shattered to be a people.
9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you do not believe then you will not endure." '"
