And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are moved with the wind. 3 Then the LORD said to Isaiah, Go out now to meet Ahaz, you and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool on the highway to the fuller's field; 4 And say to him, Be careful and be quiet; do not fear, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and the son of Remaliah. 5 Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah have devised evil against you, saying, 6 Let us go up against Judah and trouble it, and let us make a breach in it for ourselves, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal: 7 Thus says the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, nor shall it come to pass. 8 For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken, that it will not be a people. 9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son.
