Isaiah 7:6
Compare all
4 and say to him: ‘Take heed, and2 be aquiet; do not fear or be fainthearted for these two stubs of smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and the son of Remaliah.  
5 Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah have plotted evil against you, saying,
6 “Let us go up against Judah and1 trouble it, and let us make a gap in its wall for ourselves, and set a king over them, the son of Tabel”— 
7 thus says the Lord God:
a“It shall not stand,
Nor shall it come to pass. 
8 aFor the head of Syria is Damascus,
And the head of Damascus is Rezin.
Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be broken,
So that it will not be a people.

Isaiah 7:6

vex—rather, "throw into consternation" [GESENIUS].

make a breach—rather, "cleave it asunder." Their scheme was to divide a large portion of the territory between themselves, and set up a vassal king of their own over the rest.

son of Tabeal—unknown; a Syrian-sounding name, perhaps favored by a party in Jerusalem (Isaiah 3:6, Isaiah 3:9, Isaiah 3:12).
