Isaiah 8:6-10 Good News Bible (GNB)

6. He said, “Because these people have rejected the quiet waters from the brook of Shiloah, and tremble before King Rezin and King Pekah,

7. I, the Lord, will bring the emperor of Assyria and all his forces to attack Judah. They will advance like the flood waters of the River Euphrates, overflowing all its banks.

8. They will sweep through Judah in a flood, rising shoulder high and covering everything.”God is with us! His outspread wings protect the land.

9. Gather together in fear, you nations! Listen, you distant parts of the earth. Get ready to fight, but be afraid! Yes, get ready, but be afraid!

10. Make your plans! But they will never succeed. Talk as much as you like! But it is all useless, because God is with us.
