Isaiah 7:15-17
1599 Geneva Bible
15 [a]Butter and honey shall he eat, till he have knowledge to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
16 For afore the [b]child shall have knowledge to eschew the evil, and to choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest, shall be forsaken of both her kings.
17 The Lord shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy Father’s house (the days that are not come from the day that [c]Ephraim departed from Judah) even the King of [d]Assyria.
