4For before the childH5288 shall have knowledgeH3045 to cryH7121, My fatherH1, and my motherH517, the richesH2428 of DamascusH1834 and the spoilH7998 of SamariaH8111 shall be taken awayH5375 beforeH6440 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804.1

5YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 also unto me againH3254, sayingH559, 6ForasmuchH3282 as this peopleH5971 refusethH3988 the watersH4325 of ShiloahH7975 that goH1980 softlyH328, and rejoiceH4885 in RezinH7526 and Remaliah’sH7425 sonH1121; 7Now therefore, behold, the LordH136 bringeth upH5927 upon them the watersH4325 of the riverH5104, strongH6099 and manyH7227, even the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and all his gloryH3519: and he shall come upH5927 over all his channelsH650, and go overH1980 all his banksH1415: 8And he shall passH2498 through JudahH3063; he shall overflowH7857 and go overH5674, he shall reachH5060 even to the neckH6677; and the stretching outH4298 of his wingsH3671 shall fillH4393 the breadthH7341 of thy landH776, O ImmanuelH410H6005.2

9AssociateH7489 yourselves, O ye peopleH5971, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865; and give earH238, allH3605 ye of farH4801 countriesH776: girdH247 yourselves, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865; girdH247 yourselves, and ye shall be broken in piecesH2865.3 10TakeH5779 counselH6098 togetherH5779, and it shall come to noughtH6565; speakH1696 the wordH1697, and it shall not standH6965: for GodH410 is with us.
