Isaiah 7:7-13

7This is what the Lord God says: It will not happen; it will not occur.

8The 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),

9the 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.

10Then 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.”

12But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask. I will not test the Lord.”

13Isaiah 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?
