Isaiah 7:20-22
New Catholic Bible
20 On that day the Lord will shave
with a razor hired from across the river[a]
(with the king of Assyria)
the head and the hair between the legs
as well as the beard.
21 When that day comes,
each man will keep a young cow and two sheep,
22 and because of the abundant milk they give
he will subsist on curds.
For all those who are left in the land
will eat curds and honey.
