Moreover the LORDH3068 saidH559 to me, TakeH3947 you a greatH1419 roll,H1549 and writeH3789 in it with a man'sH582 penH2747 concerning Mahershalalhashbaz.H4122
2
And I took to me faithfulH539 witnessesH5707 to record,H5749 UriahH223 the priest,H3548 and ZechariahH2148 the sonH1121 of Jeberechiah.H3000
3
And I wentH7126 to the prophetess;H5031 and she conceived,H2029 and boreH3205 a son.H1121 Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 to me, CallH7121 his nameH8034 Mahershalalhashbaz.H4122
4
For beforeH2962 the childH5288 shall have knowledgeH3045 to cry,H7121 My father,H1 and my mother,H517 the richesH2428 of DamascusH1834 and the spoilH7998 of SamariaH8111 shall be takenH5375 away beforeH6440 the kingH4428 of Assyria.H804
5
The LORDH3068 spokeH1696 also to me again,H3254 saying,H559
6
For as muchH3282 H365 as thisH2088 peopleH5971 refusesH3988 the watersH4325 of ShiloahH7975 that goH1980 softly,H328 and rejoiceH4885 in RezinH7526 and Remaliah'sH7425 son;H1121
7
Now therefore,H3651 behold,H2009 the LordH136 bringsH5927 up on them the watersH4325 of the river,H5104 strongH6099 and many,H7227 evenH853 the kingH4428 of Assyria,H804 and allH3605 his glory:H3519 and he shall comeH5927 up overH5921 allH3605 his channels,H650 and goH1980 overH5921 allH3605 his banks:H1415
8
And he shall passH2498 through Judah;H3063 he shall overflowH7857 and goH5674 over,H5674 he shall reachH5060 even to the neck;H6677 and the stretchingH4298 out of his wingsH3671 shall fillH4393 the breadthH7341 of your land,H776 O Immanuel.H6005
9
AssociateH7489 yourselves, O you people,H5971 and you shall be brokenH2844 in pieces; and give ear,H238 allH3605 you of farH4801 countries:H776 girdH247 yourselves, and you shall be brokenH2844 in pieces; girdH247 yourselves, and you shall be brokenH2844 in pieces.
10
Take counselH6098 together, and it shall come to nothing;H6565 speakH1696 the word,H1697 and it shall not stand:H6965 for GodH410 is with us.
11
For the LORDH3068 spokeH559 thusH3541 to me with a strongH2393 hand,H3027 and instructedH3256 me that I should not walkH3212 in the wayH1870 of thisH2088 people,H5971 saying,H559
12
SayH559 you not, A confederacy,H7195 to allH3605 them to whomH834 thisH2088 peopleH5971 shall say,H559 A confederacy;H7195 neitherH3808 fearH3372 you their fear,H4172 norH3808 be afraid.H6206
13
SanctifyH6942 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 himself; and let him be your fear,H4172 and let him be your dread.H6206
14
And he shall be for a sanctuary;H4720 but for a stoneH68 of stumblingH5063 and for a rockH6697 of offenseH4383 to bothH8147 the housesH1004 of Israel,H3478 for a ginH6341 and for a snareH4170 to the inhabitantsH3427 of Jerusalem.H3389
15
And manyH7227 among them shall stumble,H3782 and fall,H5307 and be broken,H7665 and be snared,H3369 and be taken.H3920
16
BindH6887 up the testimony,H8584 sealH2856 the lawH8451 among my disciples.H3928
17
And I will waitH2442 on the LORD,H3068 that hidesH5641 his faceH6440 from the houseH1004 of Jacob,H3290 and I will lookH6960 for him.
18
Behold,H2009 I and the childrenH3206 whomH834 the LORDH3068 has givenH5414 me are for signsH226 and for wondersH4159 in IsraelH3478 from the LORDH3068 of hosts,H6635 which dwellsH7931 in mountH2022 Zion.H6726
19
And whenH3588 they shall sayH559 to you, SeekH1875 to them that have familiar spirits,H178 and to wizardsH3049 that peep,H6850 and that mutter:H1897 should not a peopleH5971 seekH1875 to their God?H430 for the livingH2416 to the dead?H4191
20
To the lawH8451 and to the testimony:H8584 ifH518 they speakH559 not according to thisH2088 word,H1697 it is becauseH834 there is noH369 lightH7837 in them.
21
And they shall passH5674 through it, hardlyH7185 bestead and hungry:H7456 and it shall comeH1961 to pass, that whenH3588 they shall be hungry,H7456 they shall fretH7107 themselves, and curseH7043 their kingH4428 and their God,H430 and lookH6437 upward.H4605
22
And they shall lookH5027 to the earth;H776 and beholdH2009 troubleH6869 and darkness,H2825 dimnessH4588 of anguish;H6695 and they shall be drivenH5080 to darkness.H653
