Celebrating Advent, the Promise of Hope
7:10 Again the Lord spoke to Ahaz,
7:11 “Ask the Lord your God for a sign, whether in the deepest depths or in the highest heights.”
7:12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask; I will not put the Lord to the test.”
7:13 Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of men? Will you try the patience of my God also?
7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.
7:15 He will eat curds and honey when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right.
7:16 But before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.
