6 Because this people refusesthe gently flowing waters of Shiloahand rejoices in Rezinand the son of Remaliah,
7 now therefore the Lord certainly is about to bring upon themthe strong and plentiful waters of the River,even the king of Assyria and all his glory;and he shall come up over all his channelsand go over all his banks.
8 And he shall pass through Judah, he shall overflow and go over,he shall reach even to the neck,and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of your land,O Immanuel.
9 Be broken, O you peoples, and be broken in pieces.And give ear, all you from far countries.Gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces;gird yourselves, but be broken in pieces.
10 Take counsel together, but it shall come to nothing;speak the word, but it shall not standfor God is with us.
11 For the Lord spoke thus to me with a strong hand and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:
12 You should not say, “It is a conspiracy,”concerning all that this people calls a conspiracy,neither fear their threatsnor be afraid of them.
