Isaiah 8:5-8

New International Version

⁵The Lord spoke to me again:

⁶“Because this people has rejected^(A)
    the gently flowing waters of Shiloah^(B)
and rejoices over Rezin
    and the son of Remaliah,^(C)
⁷therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
    the mighty floodwaters^(D) of the Euphrates—
    the king of Assyria^(E) with all his pomp.^(F)
It will overflow all its channels,
    run over all its banks^(G)
⁸and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,^(H)
    passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings^(I) will cover the breadth of your land,
    Immanuel^[a]!”^(J)
