Isaiah 7:2-9 And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria hath settled down upon Ephraim. Then shook his heart, and the heart of his people, as the trees of a forest shake, before a wind.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ² And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria hath settled down upon Ephraim. Then shook his heart, and the heart of his people, as the trees of a forest shake, before a wind. ³ Then said Yahweh, unto Isaiah, Go forth, I pray thee, to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear–jashub thy son,––unto the end of the channel of the upper pool, unto the highway of the fuller’s field; ⁴ and say unto him––Take heed and keep thyself calm––do not fear, neither let, thy heart, be faint, because of these two fag–ends of smoking firebrands,––in spite of the glow of the anger of Rezin and Syria, and the son of Remaliah. ⁵ Because Syria, hath taken counsel, against thee, for mischief,––[with] Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying, ⁶ Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and break it open, for ourselves,––and set up a king in the midst thereof, even the son of Tabeal. ⁷ Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh,––It shall not stand, Neither shall it come to pass! ⁸ For, though the head of Syria, is Damascus, And the head of Damascus is Rezin, Yet, within threescore and five years more, shall Ephraim be broken, that it shall not be a people; ⁹ Even though, the head of Ephraim, is Samaria, And, the head of Samaria, is the son of Remaliah. If ye trust not, Surely ye cannot be trusted!
