Isaiah 7:15-22
15He will eatH398 12curdsH2529 and honeyH1706 3at the time He knowsH3045 enough to refuseH3988 evilH7451 and chooseH977 goodH2896. 164For beforeH2962 the boyH5288 knowsH3045 enough to refuseH3988 evilH7451 and chooseH977 goodH2896, 5the landH127 whoseH834 twoH8147 kingsH4428 you dreadH6973 will be abandonedH5800. 17The LordH3068 will bringH935 on you, on your peopleH5971, and on your father’sH1 houseH1004 suchH834 daysH3117 as have not comeH935 sinceH4480 the dayH3117 that 6EphraimH669 separatedH5493 from JudahH3063--the days of the 7kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.”
18On that dayH3117 the LordH3068 will 8whistleH8319 for the flyH2070 that is in the 910remotestH7097 partH7097 of the canalsH2975 of EgyptH4714 and for the beeH1682 that is in the landH776 of AssyriaH804. 19They will allH3605 comeH935 and settleH5117 on the steepH1327 11ravinesH5158, on the 12ledgesH5357 of the cliffsH5553, 13on allH3605 the thornH5285 bushesH5285, and on allH3605 the wateringH5097 placesH5097.
20On that dayH3117 the LordH136 will 14shaveH1548 with a 15razorH8593, 16hiredH7917 from regionsH5676 beyondH5676 17the Euphrates RiverH5104 (that is, with the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804), the headH7218 and the hairH8181 of the legsH7272; and it will alsoH1571 removeH5595 the beardH2206.
21Now on that dayH3117 a personH376 may keepH2421 aliveH2421 only a 18heiferH5697H1241 and a pairH8147 of sheepH6629; 22and becauseH4480 of the abundanceH7230 of the milkH2461 producedH6213 he will eatH398 19curdsH2529, for everyoneH3605 who is leftH3498 withinH7130 the landH776 will eatH398 2021curdsH2529 and honeyH1706.
