Isaiah 8:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 Then I took unto me [a]faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the Priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.
3 After, I came unto the [b]Prophetess, which conceived, and bare a son. Then said the Lord to me, Call his name, [c]Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.
4 For before the [d]child shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, he shall take away the riches of Damascus, and the spoil of Samaria, before the [e]King of Assyria.
