Isaiah 7:10-16

The Sign of Immanuel

10 Then Yahweh spoke again to Ahaz, saying, 11 “Ask a ^asign for yourself from Yahweh your God; ¹make it deep as Sheol or high as ²heaven.” 12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask, and I will not test Yahweh!” 13 Then he said, “¹Listen now, O ^ahouse of David! Is it too slight a thing for you to try the patience of men, that you will ^btry the patience of ^cmy God as well? 14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, ^athe ¹virgin ²will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name ³^bImmanuel. 15 He will eat ^acurds and honey ¹in order that He will know to refuse evil and choose good. 16 ^aFor before the boy will know to refuse evil and choose good, ^bthe land whose two kings you dread will be forsaken.
