Book 23 : ISAIAH - Chapter 008
008:001
And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the
priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah
008:002
And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a
son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name
Mahershalalhashbaz
008:003
For before the child shall have knowledge to cry, My father,
and my mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria
shall be taken away before the king of Assyria
008:004
The LORD spake also unto me again, saying
008:005
Forasmuch as this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah that
go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son
008:006
Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the
waters of the river, strong and many, even the king of
Assyria, and all his glory: and he shall come up over all his
channels, and go over all his banks
008:007
And he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow and go
over, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out
of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel
008:008
Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in
pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird
yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves,
and ye shall be broken in pieces
008:009
Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the
word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us
008:010
For the LORD spake thus to me with a strong hand, and
instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this
people, saying
008:011
Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people
shall say, A confederacy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be
afraid
008:012
Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear,
and let him be your dread
008:013
And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling
and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a
gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem
008:014
And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken,
and be snared, and be taken
008:015
Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples
008:016
And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the
house of Jacob, and I will look for him
008:017
Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for
signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which
dwelleth in mount Zion
008:018
And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have
familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter:
should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the
dead
008:019
To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according
to this word, it is because there is no light in them
008:020
And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and
it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they
shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and
look upward
008:021
And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and
darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to
darkness
