Isaiah 7:1--8:22

7:1

And it came to pass in the days
<03117>

of Ahaz
<0271>

the son
<01121>

of Jotham
<03147>_,

the son
<01121>

of Uzziah
<05818>_,

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

[that] Rezin
<07526>

the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>_,

and Pekah
<06492>

the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_,

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

went up
<05927> (8804)

toward Jerusalem
<03389>

to war
<04421>

against it, but could
<03201> (8804)

not prevail
<03898> (8736)

against it.

7:2

And it was told
<05046> (8714)

the house
<01004>

of David
<01732>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Syria
<0758>

is confederate
<05117> (8804)

with Ephraim
<0669>_.

And his heart
<03824>

was moved
<05128> (8799)_,

and the heart
<03824>

of his people
<05971>_,

as the trees
<06086>

of the wood
<03293>

are moved
<05128> (8800)

with
<06440>

the wind
<07307>_.

{is confederate...: Heb. resteth on}

7:3

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

unto Isaiah
<03470>_,

Go forth
<03318> (8798)

now to meet
<07125> (8800)

Ahaz
<0271>_,

thou, and Shearjashub
<07610>

thy son
<01121>_,

at the end
<07097>

of the conduit
<08585>

of the upper
<05945>

pool
<01295>

in the highway
<04546>

of the fuller's
<03526> (8801)

field
<07704>_;

{Shearjashub: that is, The remnant shall return} {highway: or, causeway}

7:4

And say
<0559> (8804)

unto him, Take heed
<08104> (8734)_,

and be quiet
<08252> (8685)_;

fear
<03372> (8799)

not, neither be fainthearted
<07401> (8735) <03824>

for the two
<08147>

tails
<02180>

of these smoking
<06226>

firebrands
<0181>_,

for the fierce
<02750>

anger
<0639>

of Rezin
<07526>

with Syria
<0758>_,

and of the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_.

{neither...: Heb. let not thy heart be tender}

7:5

Because Syria
<0758>_,

Ephraim
<0669>_,

and the son
<01121>

of Remaliah
<07425>_,

have taken evil
<07451>

counsel
<03289> (8804)

against thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

7:6

Let us go up
<05927> (8799)

against Judah
<03063>_,

and vex
<06973> (8686)

it, and let us make a breach
<01234> (8686)

therein for us, and set
<04427> (8686)

a king
<04428>

in the midst
<08432>

of it, [even] the son
<01121>

of Tabeal
<02870>_:

{vex: or, waken}

7:7

Thus
<03541>

saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

It shall not stand
<06965> (8799)_,

neither shall it come to pass.

7:8

For the head
<07218>

of Syria
<0758>

[is] Damascus
<01834>_,

and the head
<07218>

of Damascus
<01834>

[is] Rezin
<07526>_;

and within threescore
<08346>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

shall Ephraim
<0669>

be broken
<02865> (8735)_,

that it be not a people
<05971>_.

{that...: Heb. from a people}

7:9

And the head
<07218>

of Ephraim
<0669>

[is] Samaria
<08111>_,

and the head
<07218>

of Samaria
<08111>

[is] Remaliah's
<07425>

son
<01121>_.

If ye will not believe
<0539> (8686)_,

surely ye shall not be established
<0539> (8735)_.

{If...: or, Do ye not believe? it is because ye are not stable}

7:10

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8763)

again
<03254> (8686)

unto Ahaz
<0271>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{Moreover...: Heb. And the LORD added to speak}

7:11

Ask
<07592> (8798)

thee a sign
<0226>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_;

ask
<07592> (8800)

it either in the depth
<06009> (8685)_,

or in the height
<01361> (8687)

above
<04605>_.

{ask it...: or, make thy petition deep}

7:12

But Ahaz
<0271>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not ask
<07592> (8799)_,

neither will I tempt
<05254> (8762) <0853>

the LORD
<03068>_.

7:13

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye now, O house
<01004>

of David
<01732>_;

[Is it] a small thing
<04592>

for you to weary
<03811> (8687)

men
<0582>_,

but will ye weary
<03811> (8686)

my God
<0430>

also?

7:14

Therefore the Lord
<0136>

himself shall give
<05414> (8799)

you a sign
<0226>_;

Behold, a virgin
<05959>

shall conceive
<02030>_,

and bear
<03205> (8802)

a son
<01121>_,

and shall call
<07121> (8804)

his name
<08034>

Immanuel
<0410> <06005>_.

{shall call: or, thou, O virgin, shalt call}

7:15

Butter
<02529>

and honey
<01706>

shall he eat
<0398> (8799)_,

that he may know
<03045> (8800)

to refuse
<03988> (8800)

the evil
<07451>_,

and choose
<0977> (8800)

the good
<02896>_.

7:16

For before the child
<05288>

shall know
<03045> (8799)

to refuse
<03988> (8800)

the evil
<07451>_,

and choose
<0977> (8800)

the good
<02896>_,

the land
<0127>

that thou abhorrest
<06973> (8801)

shall be
<06440>

forsaken
<05800> (8735)

of both
<08147>

her kings
<04428>_.

7:17

The LORD
<03068>

shall bring
<0935> (8686)

upon thee, and upon thy people
<05971>_,

and upon thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

days
<03117>

that have not come
<0935> (8804)_,

from the day
<03117>

that Ephraim
<0669>

departed
<05493> (8800)

from Judah
<03063>_;

[even] the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

7:18

And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,

[that] the LORD
<03068>

shall hiss
<08319> (8799)

for the fly
<02070>

that [is] in the uttermost part
<07097>

of the rivers
<02975>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and for the bee
<01682>

that [is] in the land
<0776>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

7:19

And they shall come
<0935> (8804)_,

and shall rest
<05117> (8804)

all of them in the desolate
<01327>

valleys
<05158>_,

and in the holes
<05357>

of the rocks
<05553>_,

and upon all thorns
<05285>_,

and upon all bushes
<05097>_.

{bushes: or, commendable trees}

7:20

In the same day
<03117>

shall the Lord
<0136>

shave
<01548> (8762)

with a razor
<08593>

that is hired
<07917>_,

[namely], by them beyond
<05676>

the river
<05104>_,

by the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

the head
<07218>_,

and the hair
<08181>

of the feet
<07272>_:

and it shall also consume
<05595> (8799)

the beard
<02206>_.

7:21

And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,

[that] a man
<0376>

shall nourish
<02421> (8762)

a young
<01241>

cow
<05697>_,

and two
<08147>

sheep
<06629>_;

7:22

And it shall come to pass, for the abundance
<07230>

of milk
<02461>

[that] they shall give
<06213> (8800)

he shall eat
<0398> (8799)

butter
<02529>_:

for butter
<02529>

and honey
<01706>

shall every one eat
<0398> (8799)

that is left
<03498> (8737)

in
<07130>

the land
<0776>_.

{the land: Heb. the midst of the land}

7:23

And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,

[that] every place
<04725>

shall be, where there were a thousand
<0505>

vines
<01612>

at a thousand
<0505>

silverlings
<03701>_,

it shall [even] be for briers
<08068>

and thorns
<07898>_.

7:24

With arrows
<02671>

and with bows
<07198>

shall [men] come
<0935> (8799)

thither; because all the land
<0776>

shall become briers
<08068>

and thorns
<07898>_.

7:25

And [on] all hills
<02022>

that shall be digged
<05737> (8735)

with the mattock
<04576>_,

there shall not come thither
<0935> (8799)

the fear
<03374>

of briers
<08068>

and thorns
<07898>_:

but it shall be for the sending forth
<04916>

of oxen
<07794>_,

and for the treading
<04823>

of lesser cattle
<07716>_.

8:1

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Take
<03947> (8798)

thee a great
<01419>

roll
<01549>_,

and write
<03789> (8798)

in it with a man's
<0582>

pen
<02747>

concerning Mahershalalhashbaz
<04122>_.

{Mahershalalhashbaz: Heb. In making speed to the spoil he hasteneth the prey, or, Make speed, etc}

8:2

And I took
<05749> (0)

unto me faithful
<0539> (8737)

witnesses
<05707>

to record
<05749> (8686)_,

Uriah
<0223>

the priest
<03548>_,

and Zechariah
<02148>

the son
<01121>

of Jeberechiah
<03000>_.

8:3

And I went
<07126> (8799)

unto the prophetess
<05031>_;

and she conceived
<02029> (8799)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

to me, Call
<07121> (8798)

his name
<08034>

Mahershalalhashbaz
<04122>_.

{went: Heb. approached}

8:4

For before the child
<05288>

shall have knowledge
<03045> (8799)

to cry
<07121> (8800)_,

My father
<01>_,

and my mother
<0517>_,

the riches
<02428>

of Damascus
<01834>

and the spoil
<07998>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall be taken away
<05375> (8799)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_.

{the riches...: or, he that is before the king of Assyria shall take away the riches, etc}

8:5

The LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8763)

also unto me again
<03254> (8686)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

8:6

Forasmuch
<03282>

as this people
<05971>

refuseth
<03988> (8804)

the waters
<04325>

of Shiloah
<07975>

that go
<01980> (8802)

softly
<0328>_,

and rejoice
<04885>

in Rezin
<07526>

and Remaliah's
<07425>

son
<01121>_;

8:7

Now therefore, behold, the Lord
<0136>

bringeth up
<05927> (8688)

upon them the waters
<04325>

of the river
<05104>_,

strong
<06099>

and many
<07227>_,

[even] the king
<04428>

of Assyria
<0804>_,

and all his glory
<03519>_:

and he shall come up
<05927> (8804)

over all his channels
<0650>_,

and go over
<01980> (8804)

all his banks
<01415>_:

8:8

And he shall pass
<02498> (8804)

through Judah
<03063>_;

he shall overflow
<07857> (8804)

and go over
<05674> (8804)_,

he shall reach
<05060> (8686)

[even] to the neck
<06677>_;

and the stretching out
<04298>

of his wings
<03671>

shall fill
<04393>

the breadth
<07341>

of thy land
<0776>_,

O Immanuel
<06005> <0410>_.

{stretching...: Heb. fulness of the breadth of thy land shall be the stretchings out of his wings}

8:9

Associate
<07489> (8798)

yourselves, O ye people
<05971>_,

and ye shall be broken in pieces
<02865> (8798)_;

and give ear
<0238> (8685)_,

all
<03605>

ye of far
<04801>

countries
<0776>_:

gird
<0247> (8690)

yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces
<02865> (8798)_;

gird
<0247> (8690)

yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces
<02865> (8798)_.

{people and: or, people, yet}

8:10

Take
<05779> (0)

counsel
<06098>

together
<05779> (8798)_,

and it shall come to nought
<06565> (8714)_;

speak
<01696> (8761)

the word
<01697>_,

and it shall not stand
<06965> (8799)_:

for God
<0410>

[is] with us.

8:11

For the LORD
<03068>

spake
<0559> (8804)

thus to me with a strong
<02393>

hand
<03027>_,

and instructed
<03256> (8765)

me that I should not walk
<03212> (8800)

in the way
<01870>

of this people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{with...: Heb. in strength of hand}

8:12

Say
<0559> (8799)

ye not, A confederacy
<07195>_,

to all [them to] whom this people
<05971>

shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

A confederacy
<07195>_;

neither fear
<03372> (8799)

ye their fear
<04172>_,

nor be afraid
<06206> (8686)_.

8:13

Sanctify
<06942> (8686)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

himself; and [let] him [be] your fear
<04172>_,

and [let] him [be] your dread
<06206> (8688)_.

8:14

And he shall be for a sanctuary
<04720>_;

but for a stone
<068>

of stumbling
<05063>

and for a rock
<06697>

of offence
<04383>

to both
<08147>

the houses
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

for a gin
<06341>

and for a snare
<04170>

to the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

8:15

And many
<07227>

among them shall stumble
<03782> (8804)_,

and fall
<05307> (8804)_,

and be broken
<07665> (8738)_,

and be snared
<03369> (8738)_,

and be taken
<03920> (8738)_.

8:16

Bind up
<06887> (8798)

the testimony
<08584>_,

seal
<02856> (8798)

the law
<08451>

among my disciples
<03928>_.

8:17

And I will wait
<02442> (8765)

upon the LORD
<03068>_,

that hideth
<05641> (8688)

his face
<06440>

from the house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

and I will look
<06960> (8765)

for him.

8:18

Behold, I and the children
<03206>

whom the LORD
<03068>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

me [are] for signs
<0226>

and for wonders
<04159>

in Israel
<03478>

from the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

which dwelleth
<07931> (8802)

in mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>_.

8:19

And when they shall say
<0559> (8799)

unto you, Seek
<01875> (8798)

unto them that have familiar spirits
<0178>_,

and unto wizards
<03049>

that peep
<06850> (8772)_,

and that mutter
<01897> (8688)_:

should not a people
<05971>

seek
<01875> (8799)

unto their God
<0430>_?

for the living
<02416>

to the dead
<04191> (8801)_?

8:20

To the law
<08451>

and to the testimony
<08584>_:

if they speak
<0559> (8799)

not according to this word
<01697>_,

[it is] because [there is] no light
<07837>

in them. {no...: Heb. no morning}

8:21

And they shall pass
<05674> (8804)

through it, hardly bestead
<07185> (8737)

and hungry
<07457>_:

and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry
<07456> (8799)_,

they shall fret
<07107> (8694)

themselves, and curse
<07043> (8765)

their king
<04428>

and their God
<0430>_,

and look
<06437> (8804)

upward
<04605>_.

8:22

And they shall look
<05027> (8686)

unto the earth
<0776>_;

and behold trouble
<06869>

and darkness
<02825>_,

dimness
<04588>

of anguish
<06695>_;

and [they shall be] driven
<05080> (8794)

to darkness
<0653>_.
