Amplified Bible
Isaiah 8:6-8
Amplified Bible
6
“Because these people (Judah) have refused the gently flowing waters of [a]Shiloah
And rejoice in Rezin [the king of Aram] and Remaliah’s son [Pekah the king of Israel],
7
Now therefore, listen carefully, the Lord is about to bring on them the waters of the [Euphrates] River, strong and abundant—
The king of Assyria and all his glory;
And it will rise over all its channels and canals and go far beyond its banks.(A)
8
“Then it will [b]sweep on into Judah; it will overflow and pass through [the hills],
Reaching even to the neck [of which Jerusalem is the head],
And its outstretched wings (the armies of Assyria) will fill the width of Your land, O Immanuel.(B)

6 “Because this people has rejected(A)
the gently flowing waters of Shiloah(B)
and rejoices over Rezin

7 therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
the mighty floodwaters(D) of the Euphrates—

passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings(I) will cover the breadth of your land,
Immanuel[a]!”(J)
