| Isaiah 7 Text (WEB)
|
- It happened in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
- It was told the house of David, saying, "Syria is allied with Ephraim." His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
- Then Yahweh said to Isaiah, "Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller's field.
- Tell him, 'Be careful, and keep calm. Don't be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking torches, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
- Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
- "Let's go up against Judah, and tear it apart, and let's divide it among ourselves, and set up a king in its midst, even the son of Tabeel."
- This is what the Lord Yahweh says: "It shall not stand, neither shall it happen."
- For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be a people;
- and the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.'"
- Yahweh spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
- "Ask a sign of Yahweh your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above."
- But Ahaz said, "I will not ask, neither will I tempt Yahweh."
- He said, "Listen now, house of David. Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
- Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
- He shall eat butter and honey when he knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
- For before the child knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
- Yahweh will bring on you, on your people, and on your father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.
- It will happen in that day that Yahweh will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
- They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
- In that day the Lord will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
- It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep;
- and it shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter: for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left in the midst of the land.
- It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels, shall be for briers and thorns.
- People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
- All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep."

- ויהי בימי אחז בן־יותם בן־עזיהו מלך יהודה עלה רצין מלך־ארם ופקח בן־רמליהו מלך־ישראל ירושלם למלחמה עליה ולא יכל להלחם עליה׃
- ויגד לבית דוד לאמר נחה ארם על־אפרים וינע לבבו ולבב עמו כנוע עצי־יער מפני־רוח׃
- ויאמר יהוה אל־ישעיהו צא־נא לקראת אחז אתה ושאר ישוב בנך אל־קצה תעלת הברכה העליונה אל־מסלת שדה כובס׃
- ואמרת אליו השמר והשקט אל־תירא ולבבך אל־ירך משני זנבות האודים העשנים האלה בחרי־אף רצין וארם ובן־רמליהו׃
- יען כי־יעץ עליך ארם רעה אפרים ובן־רמליהו לאמר׃
- נעלה ביהודה ונקיצנה ונבקענה אלינו ונמליך מלך בתוכה את בן־טבאל׃ ס
- כה אמר אדני יהוה לא תקום ולא תהיה׃
- כי ראש ארם דמשק וראש דמשק רצין ובעוד ששים וחמש שנה יחת אפרים מעם׃
- וראש אפרים שמרון וראש שמרון בן־רמליהו אם לא תאמינו כי לא תאמנו׃ ס
- ויוסף יהוה דבר אל־אחז לאמר׃
- שאל־לך אות מעם יהוה אלהיך העמק שאלה או הגבה למעלה׃
- ויאמר אחז לא־אשאל ולא־אנסה את־יהוה׃
- ויאמר שמעו־נא בית דוד המעט םכם הלאות אנשים כי תלאו גם את־אלהי׃
- לכן יתן אדני הוא לכם אות הנה העלמה הרה וילדת בן וקראת שמו עמנו אל׃
- חמאה ודבש יאכל לדעתו מאוס ברע ובחור בטוב׃
- כי בטרם ידע הנער מאס ברע ובחר בטוב תעזב האדמה אשר אתה קץ מפני שני מלכיה׃
- יביא יהוה עליך ועל־עמך ועל־בית אביך ימים אשר לא־באו למיום סור־אפרים מעל יהודה את מלך אשור׃ ף
- והיה ביום ההוא ישרק יהוה לזבוב אשר בקצה יארי מצרים ולדבורה אשר בארץ אשור׃
- ובאו ונחו כלם בנחלי הבתות ובנקיקי הסלעים ובכל הנעצוצים ובכל הנהללים׃
- ביום ההוא יגלח אדני בתער השכירה בעברי נהר במלך אשור את־הראש ושער הרגלימ וגם את־הזקן תספה׃ ס
- והיה ביום ההוא יחיה־איש עגלת בקר ושתי־צאן׃
- והיה מרב עשות חלב יאכל חמאה כי־חמאה ודבש יאכל כל־הנותר בקרב הארץ׃
- והיה ביום ההוא יהיה כל־מקום אשר יהיה־שם אלף גפן באלף כסף לשמיר ולשית יהיה׃
- בחצים ובקשת יבוא שמה כי־שמיר ושית תהיה כל־הארץ׃
- וכל ההרים אשר במעדר יעדרון לא־תבוא שמה יראת שמיר ושית והיה למשלח שור ולמרמס שה׃ ף

| Isaiah 7 Text (Latin)
|
- Et factum est in diebus Achaz, filii Joathan, filii Oziæ, regis Juda, ascendit Rasin, rex Syriæ, et Phacee, filius Romeliæ, rex Israël, in Jerusalem, ad præliandum contra eam : et non potuerunt
- debellare eam. Et nuntiaverunt domui David, dicentes : Requievit Syria super Ephraim. Et commotum est cor ejus, et cor populi ejus, sicut moventur ligna silvarum a facie venti.
- Et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam : Egredere in occursum Achaz, tu et qui derelictus est Jasub, filius tuus, ad extremum aquæductus piscinæ superioris in via agri Fullonis ;
- et dices ad eum : Vide ut sileas ; noli timere, et cor tuum ne formidet a duabus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum, in ira furoris Rasin, regis Syriæ, et filii Romeliæ ;
- eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria in malum, Ephraim, et filius Romeliæ, dicentes :
- Ascendamus ad Judam, et suscitemus eum, et avellamus eum ad nos, et ponamus regem in medio ejus filium Tabeel.
- Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Non stabit, et non erit istud ;
- sed caput Syriæ Damascus, et caput Damasci Rasin ; et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni, et desinet Ephraim esse populus ;
- et caput Ephraim Samaria, et caput Samariæ filius Romeliæ. Si non credideritis, non permanebitis.
- Et adjecit Dominus loqui ad Achaz, dicens :
- Pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo, in profundum inferni, sive in excelsum supra.
- Et dixit Achaz : Non petam, et non tentabo Dominum.
- Et dixit : Audite ergo, domus David. Numquid parum vobis est molestos esse hominibus, quia molesti estis et Deo meo ?
- Propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum : ecce virgo concipiet, et pariet filium, et vocabitur nomen ejus Emmanuel.
- Butyrum et mel comedet, ut sciat reprobare malum, et eligere bonum.
- Quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum et eligere bonum, derelinquetur terra quam tu detestaris a facie duorum regum suorum.
- Adducet Dominus super te, et super populum tuum, et super domum patris tui, dies qui non venerunt a diebus separationis Ephraim a Juda, cum rege Assyriorum.
- Et erit in die illa : sibilabit Dominus muscæ quæ est in extremo fluminum Ægypti, et api quæ est in terra Assur ;
- et venient, et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium, et in cavernis petrarum, et in omnibus frutetis, et in universis foraminibus.
- In die illa radet Dominus in novacula conducta in his qui trans flumen sunt, in rege Assyriorum, caput et pilos pedum, et barbam universam.
- Et erit in die illa : nutriet homo vaccam boum, et duas oves,
- et præ ubertate lactis comedet butyrum ; butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terræ.
- Et erit in die illa : omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites, mille argenteis, in sinas et in vepres erunt.
- Cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc : vepres enim et spinæ erunt in universa terra.
- Et omnes montes qui in sarculo sarrientur, non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium : et erit in pascua bovis, et in conculcationem pecoris.

| Isaiah 7 Text (KJV)
|
- And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
- And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind.
- Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-jashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field;
- And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
- Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
- Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal:
- Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass.
- For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
- And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.
- Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,
- Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.
- But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.
- And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?
- Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
- Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
- For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.
- The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.
- And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
- And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.
- In the same day shall the Lord shave with a rasor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard.
- And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep;
- And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.
- And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns.
- With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.
- And on all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle.
