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)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,^(H)
    passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings^(I) will cover the breadth of your land,
    Immanuel^[a]!”^(J)

“Because you have rejected this message,^(B)
    relied on oppression^(C)
    and depended on deceit,
¹³ this sin will become for you
    like a high wall,^(D) cracked and bulging,
    that collapses^(E) suddenly,^(F) in an instant.
¹⁴ It will break in pieces like pottery,^(G)
    shattered so mercilessly
that among its pieces not a fragment will be found
    for taking coals from a hearth
    or scooping water out of a cistern.”
