6 “Inasmuch as these people refused
The waters of aShiloah that flow softly,
And rejoice bin Rezin and in Remaliah’s son;
The waters of aShiloah that flow softly,
And rejoice bin Rezin and in Remaliah’s son;
7 Now therefore, behold, the Lord brings up over them
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.
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.
8 He will1 pass through Judah,
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.
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.
9 “Bea shattered, O you peoples, and be broken in pieces!
Give ear, all you from far countries.
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces;
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces.
Give ear, all you from far countries.
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces;
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces.
10 aTake counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
Speak the word, bbut it will not stand,
cFor1 God is with us.”
Speak the word, bbut it will not stand,
cFor1 God is with us.”
