Isaiah 7 (WEBP)

[1] In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
[2] David’s house was told, “Syria is allied with Ephraim.” His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
[3] Then Yahweh said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller’s field.
[4] Tell him, ‘Be careful, and keep calm. Don’t be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking torches, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
[5] Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
[6] “Let’s go up against Judah, and tear it apart, and let’s divide it among ourselves, and set up a king within it, even the son of Tabeel.”
[7] This is what the Lord Yahweh says: “It shall not stand, neither shall it happen.”
[8] For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be a people.
[9] The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.’ ”
[10] Yahweh spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
[11] “Ask a sign of Yahweh your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.”
[12] But Ahaz said, “I won’t ask. I won’t tempt Yahweh.”
[13] He said, “Listen now, house of David. Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
[14] Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.°
[15] He shall eat butter and honey when he knows to refuse the evil and choose the good.
[16] For before the child knows to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
[17] Yahweh will bring on you, on your people, and on your father’s house days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah, even the king of Assyria.
[18] It will happen in that day that Yahweh will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
[19] They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
[20] In that day the Lord will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
[21] It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep.
[22] It shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter, for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left within the land.
[23] It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels,° will be for briers and thorns.
[24] People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
[25] All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending out of oxen, and for sheep to tread on.”

Isaiah 7:14 “Immanuel” means “God with us”.
Isaiah 7:23 A shekel is about 10 grams or about 0.35 ounces, so 1000 shekels is about 10 kilograms or 22 pounds.

Isaiah 7 (KJVS)

[1] And it came to pass in the days H3117 of Ahaz H271 the son H1121 of Jotham H3147, the son H1121 of Uzziah H5818, king H4428 of Judah H3063, [that] Rezin H7526 the king H4428 of Syria H758, and Pekah H6492 the son H1121 of Remaliah H7425, king H4428 of Israel H3478, went up H5927 (8804) toward Jerusalem H3389 to war H4421 against it, but could H3201 (8804) not prevail H3898 (8736) against it.
[2] And it was told H5046 (8714) the house H1004 of David H1732, saying H559 (8800), Syria H758 is confederate H5117 (8804) with Ephraim H669. And his heart H3824 was moved H5128 (8799), and the heart H3824 of his people H5971, as the trees H6086 of the wood H3293 are moved H5128 (8800) with H6440 the wind H7307.
[3] Then said H559 (8799) the LORD H3068 unto Isaiah H3470, Go forth H3318 (8798) now to meet H7125 (8800) Ahaz H271, thou, and Shearjashub H7610 thy son H1121, at the end H7097 of the conduit H8585 of the upper H5945 pool H1295 in the highway H4546 of the fuller’s H3526 (8801) field H7704;
[4] And say H559 (8804) unto him, Take heed H8104 (8734), and be quiet H8252 (8685); fear H3372 (8799) not, neither be fainthearted H7401 (8735) H3824 for the two H8147 tails H2180 of these smoking H6226 firebrands H181, for the fierce H2750 anger H639 of Rezin H7526 with Syria H758, and of the son H1121 of Remaliah H7425.
[5] Because Syria H758, Ephraim H669, and the son H1121 of Remaliah H7425, have taken evil H7451 counsel H3289 (8804) against thee, saying H559 (8800),
[6] Let us go up H5927 (8799) against Judah H3063, and vex H6973 (8686) it, and let us make a breach H1234 (8686) therein for us, and set H4427 (8686) a king H4428 in the midst H8432 of it, [even] the son H1121 of Tabeal H2870:
[7] Thus H3541 saith H559 (8804) the Lord H136 GOD H3069, It shall not stand H6965 (8799), neither shall it come to pass.
[8] For the head H7218 of Syria H758 [is] Damascus H1834, and the head H7218 of Damascus H1834 [is] Rezin H7526; and within threescore H8346 and five H2568 years H8141 shall Ephraim H669 be broken H2865 (8735), that it be not a people H5971.
[9] And the head H7218 of Ephraim H669 [is] Samaria H8111, and the head H7218 of Samaria H8111 [is] Remaliah’s H7425 son H1121. If ye will not believe H539 (8686), surely ye shall not be established H539 (8735).
[10] Moreover the LORD H3068 spake H1696 (8763) again H3254 (8686) unto Ahaz H271, saying H559 (8800),
[11] Ask H7592 (8798) thee a sign H226 of the LORD H3068 thy God H430; ask H7592 (8800) it either in the depth H6009 (8685), or in the height H1361 (8687) above H4605.
[12] But Ahaz H271 said H559 (8799), I will not ask H7592 (8799), neither will I tempt H5254 (8762) H853 the LORD H3068.
[13] And he said H559 (8799), Hear H8085 (8798) ye now, O house H1004 of David H1732; [Is it] a small thing H4592 for you to weary H3811 (8687) men H582, but will ye weary H3811 (8686) my God H430 also?
[14] Therefore the Lord H136 himself shall give H5414 (8799) you a sign H226; Behold, a virgin H5959 shall conceive H2030, and bear H3205 (8802) a son H1121, and shall call H7121 (8804) his name H8034 Immanuel H6005 H410.
[15] Butter H2529 and honey H1706 shall he eat H398 (8799), that he may know H3045 (8800) to refuse H3988 (8800) the evil H7451, and choose H977 (8800) the good H2896.
[16] For before the child H5288 shall know H3045 (8799) to refuse H3988 (8800) the evil H7451, and choose H977 (8800) the good H2896, the land H127 that thou abhorrest H6973 (8801) shall be H6440 forsaken H5800 (8735) of both H8147 her kings H4428.
[17] The LORD H3068 shall bring H935 (8686) upon thee, and upon thy people H5971, and upon thy father’s H1 house H1004, days H3117 that have not come H935 (8804), from the day H3117 that Ephraim H669 departed H5493 (8800) from Judah H3063; [even] the king H4428 of Assyria H804.
[18] And it shall come to pass in that day H3117, [that] the LORD H3068 shall hiss H8319 (8799) for the fly H2070 that [is] in the uttermost part H7097 of the rivers H2975 of Egypt H4714, and for the bee H1682 that [is] in the land H776 of Assyria H804.
[19] And they shall come H935 (8804), and shall rest H5117 (8804) all of them in the desolate H1327 valleys H5158, and in the holes H5357 of the rocks H5553, and upon all thorns H5285, and upon all bushes H5097.
[20] In the same day H3117 shall the Lord H136 shave H1548 (8762) with a razor H8593 that is hired H7917, [namely], by them beyond H5676 the river H5104, by the king H4428 of Assyria H804, the head H7218, and the hair H8181 of the feet H7272: and it shall also consume H5595 (8799) the beard H2206.
[21] And it shall come to pass in that day H3117, [that] a man H376 shall nourish H2421 (8762) a young H1241 cow H5697, and two H8147 sheep H6629;
[22] And it shall come to pass, for the abundance H7230 of milk H2461 [that] they shall give H6213 (8800) he shall eat H398 (8799) butter H2529: for butter H2529 and honey H1706 shall every one eat H398 (8799) that is left H3498 (8737) in H7130 the land H776.
[23] And it shall come to pass in that day H3117, [that] every place H4725 shall be, where there were a thousand H505 vines H1612 at a thousand H505 silverlings H3701, it shall [even] be for briers H8068 and thorns H7898.
[24] With arrows H2671 and with bows H7198 shall [men] come H935 (8799) thither; because all the land H776 shall become briers H8068 and thorns H7898.
[25] And [on] all hills H2022 that shall be digged H5737 (8735) with the mattock H4576, there shall not come thither H935 (8799) the fear H3374 of briers H8068 and thorns H7898: but it shall be for the sending forth H4916 of oxen H7794, and for the treading H4823 of lesser cattle H7716.

Young’s Literal Translation

Isaiah 7 (YLT)

[1] And it cometh to pass in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, gone up hath Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, to Jerusalem, to battle against it, and he is not able to fight against it.
[2] And it is declared to the house of David, saying, ‘Aram hath been led towards Ephraim,’ And his heart and the heart of his people is moved, like the moving of trees of a forest by the presence of wind.
[3] And Jehovah saith unto Isaiah, ‘Go forth, I pray thee, to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-Jashub thy son, unto the end of the conduit of the upper pool, unto the highway of the fuller’s field,
[4] and thou hast said unto him: ‘Take heed, and be quiet, fear not, And let not thy heart be timid, Because of these two tails of smoking brands, For the fierceness of the anger of Rezin and Aram, And the son of Remaliah.
[5] Because that Aram counselled against thee evil, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying:
[6] We go up into Judah, and we vex it, And we rend it unto ourselves, And we cause a king to reign in its midst- The son of Tabeal.
[7] Thus said the Lord Jehovah: It doth not stand, nor shall it be!
[8] For the head of Aram is Damascus, And the head of Damascus is Rezin, And within sixty and five years Is Ephraim broken from being a people.
[9] And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, And the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If ye do not give credence, Surely ye are not stedfast.’
[10] And Jehovah addeth to speak unto Ahaz, saying:
[11] ‘Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God, Make deep the request, or make it high upwards.’
[12] And Ahaz saith, ‘I do not ask nor try Jehovah.’
[13] And he saith, ‘Hear, I pray you, O house of David, Is it a little thing for you to weary men, That ye weary also my God?
[14] Therefore the Lord Himself giveth to you a sign, Lo, the Virgin is conceiving, And is bringing forth a son, And hath called his name Immanuel,
[15] Butter and honey he doth eat, When he knoweth to refuse evil, and to fix on good.
[16] For before the youth doth know To refuse evil, and to fix on good, Forsaken is the land thou art vexed with, because of her two kings.
[17] Jehovah bringeth on thee, and on thy people, And on the house of thy father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.
[18] And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah doth hiss for a fly that is in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that is in the land of Asshur.
[19] And they have come, and rested all of them in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
[20] In that day doth the Lord shave, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Yea, also the beard it consumeth.
[21] And it hath come to pass, in that day, A man keepeth alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,
[22] And it hath come to pass, From the abundance of the yielding of milk he eateth butter, For butter and honey doth every one eat Who is left in the heart of the land.
[23] And it hath come to pass, in that day, Every place where there are a thousand vines, At a thousand silverlings, Is for briers and for thorns.
[24] With arrows and with bow he cometh thither, Because all the land is brier and thorn.
[25] And all the hills that with a mattock are kept in order, Thither cometh not the fear of brier and thorn, And it hath been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!’
