MLV(i)
1 And it happened in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, King of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
2 And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is allied with Ephraim. And his heart trembled and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
3 Then Jehovah said to Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, you and Shear-jashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, in the highway of the launder's field.
4 And say to him, Take heed and be quiet. Do not fear, nor let your heart be faint, because of these two tails of smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria and of the son of Remaliah.
5 Because Syria, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, have purposed evil against you, saying,
6 Let us go up against Judah and besiege it and let us make a breach in it for us and set up a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeel,
7 the lord Jehovah says thus: It will not stand, nor will it happen.
8 For the head of Syria is Damascus and the head of Damascus is Rezin. And within sixty-five years Ephraim will be broken in pieces, so that is will not be a people. 9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you* will not believe, surely you* will not be established.
10 And Jehovah spoke again to Ahaz, saying, 11 Ask you a sign of Jehovah your God, ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. 12 But Ahaz said, I will not ask, nor will I challenge Jehovah.
13 And he said, Hear now, O house of David. Is it a small thing for you* to weary men, that you* will weary my God also?
