The Message to Ahaz
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 7
|
||||
1. This took place during the reign of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah king of Judah: Aram's King Rezin and Israel's King Pekah son of Remaliah went to fight against Jerusalem, but they were not able to conquer it.
|
||||
|
||||
2. When it became known to the house of David that Aram had occupied Ephraim, the heart of Ahaz and the hearts of his people trembled like trees of a forest shaking in the wind.
|
||||
|
||||
3. The Lord said to Isaiah, "Go out with your son Shear-jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, by the road to the Launderer's Field.
|
||||
4. Say to him: Calm down and be quiet. Don't be afraid or cowardly because of these two smoldering sticks, the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram, and the son of Remaliah.
|
||||
5. For Aram, along with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has plotted harm against you. They say,
|
||||
6. 'Let's go up against Judah, terrorize it, and conquer it for ourselves. Then we can install Tabeel's son as king in it.'"
|
||||
|
||||
7. This is what
|
||||
the Lord God says:
|
||||
1 This took place during the reign of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah king of Judah: Aram’s King Rezin and Israel’s King Pekah son of Remaliah went to fight against Jerusalem, but they were not able to conquer it.
|
||||
2 When it became known to the house of David that Aram had occupied Ephraim, the heart of Ahaz and the hearts of his people trembled like trees of a forest shaking in the wind.
|
||||
3 The Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, by the road to the Launderer’s Field.
|
||||
4 Say to him: Calm down and be quiet. Don’t be afraid or cowardly because of these two smoldering sticks, the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram, and the son of Remaliah.
|
||||
5 For Aram, along with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has plotted harm against you. They say,
|
||||
6 ‘Let’s go up against Judah, terrorize it, and conquer it for ourselves. Then we can install Tabeel’s son as king in it.’”
|
||||
7 This is what the Lord God says:
|
||||
It will not happen; it will not occur.
|
||||
|
||||
8. The chief city of Aram is Damascus,
|
||||
8 The chief city of Aram is Damascus,
|
||||
the chief of Damascus is Rezin
|
||||
(within sixty-five years
|
||||
Ephraim will be too shattered to be a people),
|
||||
|
||||
9. the chief city of Ephraim is Samaria,
|
||||
9 the chief city of Ephraim is Samaria,
|
||||
and the chief of Samaria is the son of Remaliah.
|
||||
If you do not stand firm in your faith,
|
||||
then you will not stand at all.

The Immanuel Prophecy
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
10. Then
|
||||
the Lord spoke again to Ahaz:
|
||||
11. "Ask for a sign from
|
||||
the Lord your God--it can be as deep as Sheol or as high as heaven."
|
||||
|
||||
12. But Ahaz replied, "I will not ask. I will not test
|
||||
the Lord."
|
||||
|
||||
13. Isaiah said, "Listen, house of David! Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men? Will you also try the patience of my God?
|
||||
14. Therefore,
|
||||
the Lord himself will give you a sign: See, the virgin will conceive, have a son, and name him Immanuel.
|
||||
15. By the time he learns to reject what is bad and choose what is good, he will be eating curds and honey.
|
||||
16. For before the boy knows to reject what is bad and choose what is good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned.
|
||||
17. The Lord will bring on you, your people, and your father's house such a time as has never been since Ephraim separated from Judah: He will bring the king of Assyria."
|
||||
|
||||
18. On that day
|
||||
10 Then the Lord spoke again to Ahaz:
|
||||
11 “Ask for a sign from the Lord your God—it can be as deep as Sheol or as high as heaven.”
|
||||
12 But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask. I will not test the Lord.”
|
||||
13 Isaiah said, “Listen, house of David! Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men? Will you also try the patience of my God?
|
||||
14 Therefore, the Lord himself will give you a sign: See, the virgin will conceive, have a son, and name him Immanuel.
|
||||
15 By the time he learns to reject what is bad and choose what is good, he will be eating curds and honey.
|
||||
16 For before the boy knows to reject what is bad and choose what is good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned.
|
||||
17 The Lord will bring on you, your people, and your father’s house such a time as has never been since Ephraim separated from Judah: He will bring the king of Assyria.”
|
||||
18 On that day
|
||||
the Lord will whistle to flies
|
||||
at the farthest streams of the Nile
|
||||
and to bees in the land of Assyria.
|
||||
|
||||
19. All of them will come and settle
|
||||
19 All of them will come and settle
|
||||
in the steep ravines, in the clefts of the rocks,
|
||||
in all the thornbushes, and in all the water holes.
|
||||
|
||||
20. On that day
|
||||
the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates River--the king of Assyria--to shave the hair on your heads, the hair on your legs, and even your beards.
|
||||
|
||||
21. On that day
|
||||
20 On that day the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates River—the king of Assyria—to shave the hair on your heads, the hair on your legs, and even your beards.
|
||||
21 On that day
|
||||
a man will raise a young cow and two sheep,
|
||||
|
||||
22. and from the abundant milk they give

22 and from the abundant milk they give
|
||||
he will eat curds,
|
||||
for every survivor in the land will eat curds and honey.
|
||||
|
||||
23. And on that day
|
||||
23 And on that day
|
||||
every place where there were a thousand vines,
|
||||
worth a thousand pieces of silver,
|
||||
will become thorns and briers.
|
||||
|
||||
24. A man will go there with bow and arrows
|
||||
24 A man will go there with bow and arrows
|
||||
because the whole land will be thorns and briers.
|
||||
|
||||
25. You will not go to all the hills
|
||||
25 You will not go to all the hills
|
||||
that were once tilled with a hoe,
|
||||
for fear of the thorns and briers.
|
||||
|
||||
Those hills will be places for oxen to graze
|
||||
and for sheep to trample.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
and for sheep to trample.
