Now the house of David was told, “Aram has allied itself with Ephraim”; so the hearts of Ahaz and his people were shaken, as the trees of the forest are shaken by the wind.

Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of humans? Will you try the patience of my God also?

Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.

In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it— one from the house of David— one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness.

You saw that the walls of the City of David were broken through in many places; you stored up water in the Lower Pool.

I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.

Woe to David’s City

Woe to you, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David settled! Add year to year and let your cycle of festivals go on.

“I will defend this city and save it, for my sake and for the sake of David my servant!”

Give ear and come to me; listen, that you may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.
