Isaiah 7:3-9
3Then the Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz, you and your son 1Shear-jashub, at the end of the 2conduit of the upper pool, on the road to the 3fuller’s field, 4and say to him, ‘Take care and be 4calm, have no 5fear and 6do not be fainthearted because of these two stumps of smoldering 7logs, on account of the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram and the 8son of Remaliah. 5Because 9Aram, with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has planned evil against you, saying, 6“Let’s go up against Judah and 10terrorize it, and take it for ourselves by assault and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it,” 7this is what the Lord 11God says: “12It shall not stand nor shall it come to pass. 8For the head of Aram is 13Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin (now within another sixty-five years Ephraim will be broken to pieces, so that it is no longer a people), 9and the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. 14If you will not believe, you certainly shall not 15last.”’”
