The Emperor of Assyria Is Coming
5 The Lord spoke to me again. 6 He said, “Because these people have rejected the quiet waters of Shiloah Brook[a] and tremble[b] before King Rezin and King Pekah, 7 I, the Lord, will bring the emperor of Assyria and all his forces to attack Judah. They will advance like the flood waters of the Euphrates River, overflowing all its banks.

5 The 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)
7 therefore 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)
