Isaiah 8:1-4

New King James Version

Assyria Will Invade the Land

8 Moreover the Lord said to me, “Take a large scroll, and ^(A)write on it with a man’s pen concerning ^[a]Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz. ² And I will take for Myself faithful witnesses to record, ^(B)Uriah the priest and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.”

³ Then I went to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then the Lord said to me, “Call his name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz; ^4 (C)for before the child ^[b]shall have knowledge to cry ‘My father’ and ‘My mother,’ ^(D)the riches of Damascus and the ^[c]spoil of Samaria will be taken away before the king of Assyria.”
