Isaiah 8:5

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

The LORD spoke to me again and said:

See the chapter Copy

Once again the LORD God spoke to King Ahaz. This time he said,

Because before he can say ‘Mummy’ or ‘Daddy’, the king of Assyria will attack and take everything of value from Damascus and Samaria.”

These people have refused the gentle waters of Shiloah and have gladly gone over to the side of King Rezin and King Pekah.
