“‘This is what Adonai Elohim says:
“It won’t occur, it won’t happen.
For the head of Aram is Dammesek,
and the head of Dammesek Retzin.
In sixty-five years Efrayim will be broken
and will cease to be a people.
The head of Efrayim is Shomron,
and the head of Shomron is the son of Remalyah.
Without firm faith,
you will not be firmly established.”’”

Yet this is what the Sovereign Lord says:(A)

“‘It will not take place,
    it will not happen,(B)
for the head of Aram is Damascus,(C)
    and the head of Damascus is only Rezin.(D)
Within sixty-five years
    Ephraim will be too shattered(E) to be a people.
The head of Ephraim is Samaria,(F)
    and the head of Samaria is only Remaliah’s son.
If you do not stand(G) firm in your faith,(H)
    you will not stand at all.’”(I)
