Isaiah 8:8-10
New Living Translation
8 and sweep into Judah until it is chin deep. It will spread its wings, submerging your land from one end to the other, O Immanuel.
9 “Huddle together, you nations, and be terrified.
Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare for battle, but you will be crushed!
Yes, prepare for battle, but you will be crushed!
10 Call your councils of war, but they will be worthless.
Develop your strategies, but they will not succeed.
For God is with us![a]”

New King James Version
8 He will pass through Judah,
He will overflow and pass over,
(A)He will reach up to the neck;
And the stretching out of his wings
Will [a]fill the breadth of Your land, O (B)Immanuel.[b]
9 “Be(C) shattered, O you peoples, and be broken in pieces!
Give ear, all you from far countries.
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces;
Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces.
10 (D)Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
Speak the word, (E)but it will not stand,
(F)For [c]God is with us.”

8 It will pour into Judah,
flood over it, and sweep through,
reaching up to the neck;(A)
and its flooded banks[a]
will fill your entire land, Immanuel!(B)
9 Band together,[b] peoples, and be broken;
pay attention, all you distant lands;
prepare for war, and be broken;
prepare for war, and be broken.
10 Devise a plan; it will fail.(C)
Make a prediction; it will not happen.
For God is with us.[c](D)

8 This Mesopotamian power will pour into Judah, rise and pass through,
wreaking near-fatal havoc.
And its reach will extend over all your land.
God, be with us.
9 Go ahead, make your alliances, you peoples, yet you’ll be crushed.
Listen closely, even if you’re far away:
Get ready for battle—get ready to be battered;
get ready for battle—get ready to be shattered.
10 Go ahead, devise your plans, but they will fail;
your proclamations won’t matter because God is with us.
