Isaiah 8:7-10
English Standard Version
7 therefore, behold, the Lord is bringing up against them (A)the waters of (B)the River,[a] mighty and many, the king of Assyria and all his glory. And it (C)will rise over all its channels and go over all its banks, 8 and it will sweep on into Judah, it will overflow and pass on, (D)reaching even to the neck, and its (E)outspread wings will fill the breadth of your land, (F)O Immanuel.”
9 Be broken,[b] you peoples, and (G)be shattered;[c]
give ear, all you far countries;
strap on your armor and be shattered;
strap on your armor and be shattered.
10 Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
speak a word, (H)but it will not stand,
for God (I)is with us.[d]
