The waters of aShiloah that flow softly,
And rejoice bin Rezin and in Remaliah’s son;
The waters of1 the River, strong and mighty—
The king of Assyria and all his glory;
He will1 go up over all his channels
And go over all his banks.
He will overflow and pass over,
aHe will reach up to the neck;
And the stretching out of his wings
Will fill the breadth of Your land, O bImmanuel.
Give ear, all you from far countries.
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces;
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces.
Speak the word, bbut it will not stand,
cFor1 God is with us.”

Isaiah 8:6
This people - The people of Israel, of whom he last spake, who rejoiced not only in their own king, but also in the assistance of so powerful an ally as Rezin. Shiloah - That small brook which ran by Jerusalem. Hereby he understands the munitions and strength of the Jews, which their enemies derided.
