Isaiah 7:18-20

International Standard Version

¹⁸ “At that time,^[a] the Lord will call^[b] for flies that will come from far away—from the headwaters of Egypt’s rivers—and for bees that are in the land of Assyria. ¹⁹ They will all come and settle in the steep ravines, in the rocky crevices, in all the thorn bushes, and in all the pastures.^{[c] 20} At that time,^[d] the Lord will hire a barber^[e] to come^[f] from beyond the Euphrates^[g] River—that is, the king of Assyria—and he will shave your heads, your leg^[h] hair, and your beards, too.
