Isaiah 7:3-9

3Then saidH559 YhwhH3068 unto IsaiahH3470, Go forthH3318 now to meetH7125 AhazH271, thou, and Shear–jashubH7610 thy sonH1121, at the endH7097 of the conduitH8585 of the upperH5945 poolH1295 in the highwayH4546 of the fuller’sH3526 fieldH7704;12

4And sayH559 unto him, Take heedH8104, and be quietH8252; fearH3372 not, neither be faintheartedH3824H7401 for the twoH8147 tailsH2180 of these smokingH6226 firebrandsH181, for the fierceH2750 angerH639 of RezinH7526 with SyriaH758, and of the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425.3

5Because SyriaH758, EphraimH669, and the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425, have taken evilH7451 counselH3289 against thee, sayingH559,

6Let us go upH5927 against JudahH3063, and vexH6973 it, and let us make a breachH1234 therein for us, and setH4427 a kingH4428 in the midstH8432 of it, even the sonH1121 of TabealH2870:4

7ThusH3541 saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069, It shall not standH6965, neither shall it come to pass.

8For the headH7218 of SyriaH758 is DamascusH1834, and the headH7218 of DamascusH1834 is RezinH7526; and within threescoreH8346 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 shall EphraimH669 be brokenH2865, that it be not a peopleH5971.5

9And the headH7218 of EphraimH669 is SamariaH8111, and the headH7218 of SamariaH8111 is Remaliah’sH7425 sonH1121. If ye will not believeH539, surely ye shall not be establishedH539.6
