Isaiah 8:5-10

New International Version

⁶ “Because this people has rejected^(A)
    the gently flowing waters of Shiloah^(B)
and rejoices over Rezin
    and the son of Remaliah,^(C)
7 therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
    the mighty floodwaters^(D) of the Euphrates—
    the king of Assyria^(E) with all his pomp.^(F)
It will overflow all its channels,
    run over all its banks^(G)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,^(H)
    passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings^(I) will cover the breadth of your land,
    Immanuel^[a]!”^(J)

⁹ Raise the war cry,^[b](K) you nations, and be shattered!^(L)
    Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare^(M) for battle, and be shattered!
    Prepare for battle, and be shattered!
¹⁰ Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted;^(N)
    propose your plan, but it will not stand,^(O)
    for God is with us.^[c](P)
