Καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς μέ Λάβε σεαυτῷ τόμον καινοῦ μεγάλου, καὶ γράψον εἰς αὐτὸν γραφίδι ἀνθρώπου τοῦ ὀξέως προνομὴν ποιῆσαι σκύλων· πάρεστιν γάρ·

καὶ μάρτυράς μοι ποίησον πιστοὺς ἀνθρώπους, τὸν Οὐρείαν καὶ Ζαχαρίαν υἱὸν Βαραχίου.

καὶ προσῆλθον πρὸς τὴν προφῆτιν, καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβεν καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱόν. καὶ εἶπεν Κύριός μοι Κάλεσον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ταχέως σκύλευσον, ὀξέως προνόμευσον·

διότι πρὶν ἢ γνῶναι τὸ παιδίον καλεῖν πατέρα ἡ μητέρα, λήμψεται δύναμιν Δαμασκοῦ καὶ τὰ σκῦλα Σαμαρείας ἔναντι βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων.

Καὶ προσέθετο Κύριος λαλῆσαί μοι ἔτι

Διὰ τὸ μὴ βούλεσθαι τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον τὸ ὕδωρ τοῦ Σειλωὰμ τὸ πορευόμενον ἡσυχῇ, ἀλλὰ βούλεσθαι ἔχειν Ῥασσὼν καὶ τὸν υἱὸν Ῥομελίου βασιλέα ἐφʼ ὑμῶν,

διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ Κύριος ἀνάγει ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς τὸ ὕδωρ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τὸ ἰσχυρὸν καὶ τὸ πολύ, τὸν βασιλέα τῶν Ἀσσυρίων καὶ τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἐπὶ πᾶσαν φάραγγα ὑμῶν, καὶ περιπατήσει ἐπὶ πᾶν τεῖ. χος ὑμῶν,

καὶ ἀφελεῖ ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰουδαίας ἄνθρωπον ὃς δυνήσεται κεφαλὴν ἆραι ἢ δυνπτὸν συντελέσασθαί τι· καὶ ἔσται ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ ὥστε πληρῶσαι τὸ πλάτος τῆς χώρας σου. μεθʼ ἡμῶν θεός.

γνῶτε ἔθνη καὶ ἡττᾶσθε, ἐπακούσατε ἕως ἐπʼ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς, ἰσχυκότες ἡττᾶσθε· ἐὰν γὰρ πάλιν ἰσχύσητε, πάλιν ἡττηθήσεσθε.

καὶ ἣν ἂν βουλεύσησθε βουλὴν διασκεδάσει Κύριος. καὶ ¹² λόγον ὃν λαλήσητε οὐ μὴ ἐμμείνῃ ὑμῖν, ὅτι μεθʼ ἡμῶν ὁ θεός.

οὕτως λέγει Κύριος Τῇ ἰσχυοᾷ χειρὶ ἀπειθοῦσιν τῇ πορείᾳ τῆς ὀδοῦ τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου, λέγοντες

Μή ποτε εἴπωσιν σκληρόν· πᾶν γὰρ ὃ ἂν εἴπῃ ὁ λαὸς οὗτος σκληρόν ἐστιν· τὸν δὲ φόβον αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ φοβηθῆτε οὐδέ μὴ ταραχθῆτε·

Κύριον αὐτὸν ἁγιάσατε, καὶ οὐτὸς ἔσται σου φόβος.

κἂν ἐπʼ αὐτῷ πεποιθὼς ᾖς, ἔσται σοι εἰς ἁγίασμα, καὶ οὐχ ὡς λίθου προσκόμματι συναντήσεσθε οὐδέ ὡς πέτρας πτώματι. οἱ δὲ οἶκοι Ἰακὼβ ἐν παγίδι, καὶ ἐν κοιλάσματι ἐγκαθήμενοι ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ·

διὸ τοῦτο ἀδυνατήσουσιν ἐν αὐτοῖς πολλοί, καὶ πεσοῦνται καὶ συντριβήσονται, καὶ ἐγγιοῦσιν καὶ ἁλώσονται ἄνθρωποι ἐν ἀσφαλείᾳ.

Τότε φανεροὶ ἔσονται οἱ σφραγιζόμενοι τὸν νόμον τοῦ μὴ μαθεῖν.

καὶ ἐρεῖ Μενῶ τὸν θεὸν τὸν ἀποστρέψαντα τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου Ἰακώβ, καὶ πεποιθὼς ἔσομαι ἐπʼ αὐτῷ.

ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ καὶ τὰ παιδία ἅ μοι ἔδωκεν ὁ θεός. καὶ ἔσται σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰσραὴλ παρὰ Κυρίου σαβαώθ, ὃς κατοικεῖ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Σειών.

καὶ ἐὰν εἴπωσιν πρὸς ὑμᾶς Ζητήσατε τοὺς ἐνγαστριμύθους καὶ τοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς φωνοῦντας, τοὺς κενολογοῦντας οἳ ἐκ τῆς κοιλίας φωνοῦσιν, οὐκ ἔθνος πρὸς θεὸν αὐτοῦ ἐκζητήσουσιν; τί ἐκζητοῦσιν περὶ τῶν ζώντων τοὺς νεκρούς;

νόμον γὰρ εἰς βοήθειαν ἔδωκεν, ἵνα εἴπωσιν οὐχ ὡς τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο, περὶ οὗ οὐκ ἔστιν δῶρα δοῦναι περὶ αὐτοῦ.

καὶ ἥξει ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς σκληρὰ λιμός. καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν πεινάσητε, λυπηθήσεσθε ⁴⁶ καὶ κακῶς ἐρεῖτε τὸν ἄρχοντα καὶ τὰ πάτρια, καὶ ἀναβλέψονται εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν ἄνω,

καὶ εἰς τὴν γῆν κάτω ἐμβλέψονται· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀπορία στενὴ καὶ σκότος, θλίψις καὶ στενοχωρία καὶ σκότος ὥστε μὴ βλέπειν, καὶ οὐκ ἀπορηθήσεται ὁ ἐν στενοχωρίᾳ ὢν ἕως καιροῦ.

Καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς μέ Λάβε σεαυτῷ τόμον χάρτου καινοῦ μεγάλου, καὶ γράψον εἷς αὐτὸν γραφίδι ἀνθρώπου τοῦ ὀξέως
προνομὴν ποιῆσαι σκύλων · πάρεστιν γάρ·

καὶ μάρτυράς μοι ποίησον πιστοὺς ἀνθρώπους, τὸν Οὐρίαν καὶ τὸν Ζαχαρίαν υἱὸν Βαραχίου.

καὶ προσῆλθεν πρὸς τὴν προφῆτιν, καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβεν καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱόν. καὶ εἶπεν Κύριός μοι Κάλεσον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ταχέως
σκύλευσον, ὀξέως προνόμευσον.

διότι πρὶν ἢ γνῶναι τὸ παιδίον ¹ καλεῖν πατέρα ἢ μητέρα, λήμψεται δύναμιν Δαμασκοῦ καὶ τὰ σκῦλα Σαμαρείας ἔναντι βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων.

Καὶ προσέθετο Κύριος λαλῆσαί μοι ἔτι

Διὰ τὸ μὴ βούλεσθαι τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον τὸ ὕδωρ τοῦ Σιλωὰμ τὸ πορευόμενον ἡσυχῇ, ἀλλὰ. βούλεσθαι ἔχειν τὸν ῾Ραασσὼν καὶ τὸν υἱὸν ῾Ρομελίου βασιλέα ἐφ᾿
ὑμῶν,

διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἀνάγει Κύριος ἐφ᾿ ὑμᾶς τὸ ὕδωρ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τὸ ἰσχυρὸν καὶ τὸ πολύ, τὸν βασιλέα τῶν Ἀσσυρίων καὶ τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἐπὶ πᾶσαν φάραγγα ὑμῶν, καὶ περιπατήσει
ἐπὶ πᾶν τεῖχος ὑμῶν,

καὶ ἀφελεῖ ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰουδαίας ἄνθρωπον ὃς δυνήσεται κεφαλὴν ἆραι εἰ δυνατὸν συντελέσαι τι· καὶ ἔσται ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὑτοῦ τὰ πλάτη τῆς χώρας σου. μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν ὃ θεός.

γνῶτε ἔθνη καὶ ἡττᾶσθε, ἐπακούσετε ἔως ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς, ἰσχυκότες
ἡττᾶσθε· ἐὰν γὰρ πάλιν ἰσχύσητε, πάλιν ἡττηθήσεσθε.

καὶ ἥν ἂν βουλεύσησθε βουλὴν διασκεδάσει Κύριος, καὶ τὸν λόγον ὃν ἐὰν λαλήσητε οὐ μὴ ἐμμείνῃ ὑμῖν, ὅτι μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν Κύριος ὁ θεός.

οὕτω λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεός Τῇ ἰσχυρᾷ χειρὶ ἀπειθοῦσιν τῇ πορείᾳ,
τῆς ὁδοῦ τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου, λέγοντες

Μή ποτε εἴπητε σκληρόν· πᾶν γὰρ ὃ ἂν εἴπῃ ὁ λαὸς οὗτος σκληρόν ἐστιν· τὸν δὲ φόβον αὐτοῦ
οὐ μὴ φοβηθῆτε οὐδ᾿ οὐ μὴ ταραχθῆτε·

Κύριον αὐτὸν ἁγιάσατε,
καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται σου φόβος.

καὶ ἐὰν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ πεποιθὼς ᾖς, ἔσται σοι εἰς ἁγίασμα, καὶ οὐχ ὡς λίθου προσκόμματι συναντήσεσθε αὐτῷ, οὐδὲ ὡς πέτρας πτώματι. ὁ δὲ οἶκος Ἰακὼβ ἐν παγίδι, καὶ ἐν
κοιλάσματι ἐγκαθήμενοι ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ·

διὸ, τοῦτο ἀδυνατήσουσιν ἐν αὐτοῖς πολλοί, καὶ πεσοῦνται καὶ συντριβήσονται, καὶ ἐγγιοῦσιν
καὶ ἁλώσονται ἅνθρωποι ἐν ἀσφαλείᾳ ὄντες.

Τότε φανεροὶ ἔσονται
οἱ σφραγιζόμενοι τὸν νόμον τοῦ μαθεῖν.

καὶ ἐρεῖ Μενῶ τὸν θεὸν ² τὸν ἀποστρέψαντα τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου Ἰακώβ, καὶ
πεποιθὼς ἔσομαι ἐπ’ αὐτῷ.

ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ καὶ τὸ, παιδία ἅ μοι ἔδωκεν ὃ θεός. καὶ ἔσται εἷς σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα ἐν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ παρὰ
Κυρίου σαβαώθ, ὃς κατοικεῖ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Σιών.

καὶ ἐὰν εἴπωσιν πρὸς ὑμᾶς Ζητήσατε τοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς φωνοῦντας καὶ τοὺς ἐγγαστριμύθους, τοὺς κενολογοῦντας οἳ ἀπὸ τῆς κοιλίας φωνοῦσιν, οὐκ ἔθνος πρὸς θεὸν αὐτοῦ; τί ἐκζητῶσιν περὶ τῶν ζώντων τοὺς νεκρούς;

νόμον γὰρ εἷς βοήθειαν ἔδωκεν, ἵνα εἴπωσιν οὐχ ὡς τὸ τοῦτο,
περὶ οὗ οὐκ ἔστιν δῶρα δοῦναι περὶ αὐτοῦ.

καὶ ἥξει ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς σκληρὰ λιμός, καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν πεινάσητε, λυπηθήσεσθε καὶ κακῶς ἐρεῖτε τὸν ἄρχοντα καὶ τὰ πάτρια, καὶ ἀναβλέψονται εἷς τὸν οὐρανὸν
ἄνω,

καὶ εἰς τὴν γῆν κάτω ἐμβλέψονται· καὶ ἰδοὺ θλῖψις καὶ στενοχωρία καὶ σκότος, ἀπορία στενὴ καὶ σκότος ὥστε μὴ βλέπειν, καὶ οὐκ ἀπορηθήσεται ὃ ἐν στενοχωρίᾳ ἔως καιροῦ.

Isaiah Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 8 focus

Yahweh said to me, Take a great tablet, and write on it with the pen of a man, For Maher Shalal Hash Baz;

and I will take to me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.

I went to the prophetess; and she conceived, and bore a son. Then said Yahweh to me, Call his name Maher Shalal Hash Baz.

For before the child shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and, My mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.

Yahweh spoke to me yet again, saying,

Because this people have refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah’s son;

now therefore, behold, the Lord brings up on them the waters of the River, strong and many, [even] the king of Assyria and all his glory: and it shall come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks;

and it shall sweep onward into Judah; it shall overflow and pass through; it shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of its wings shall fill the breadth of your land, Immanuel.

Make an uproar, O you peoples, and be broken in pieces! And give ear, all you of far countries: gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces! Gird yourselves, and be broken in pieces!

Take counsel together, and it shall be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us.

For Yahweh spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

Don’t you say, A conspiracy! concerning all whereof this people shall say, A conspiracy! neither fear their fear, nor be in dread [of it].

Yahweh of hosts, him shall you sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.

He shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Many shall stumble thereon, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.

Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.

I will wait for Yahweh, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.

Behold, I and the children whom Yahweh has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from Yahweh of Hosts, who dwells in Mount Zion.

When they shall tell you, Consult with those who have familiar spirits and with the wizards, who chirp and who mutter: shouldn’t a people consult with their God? on behalf of the living [should they consult] with the dead?

To the law and to the testimony! if they don’t speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.

They shall pass through it, sore distressed and hungry; and it shall happen that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse by their king and by their God, and turn their faces upward:

and they shall look to the earth, and see, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish; and into thick darkness [they shall be] driven away.
