Isaiah 8:6-7
New King James Version
6 “Inasmuch as these people refused
The waters of (A)Shiloah that flow softly,
And rejoice (B)in Rezin and in Remaliah’s son;
7 Now therefore, behold, the Lord brings up over them
The waters of [a]the River, strong and mighty—
The king of Assyria and all his glory;
He will [b]go up over all his channels
And go over all his banks.
