< Isaiah 7 >

1 And it was don in the daies of Achas, the sone of Joathan, the sone of Osias, kyng of Juda, Rasyn, the kyng of Sirie, and Facee, the sone of Romelie, the kyng of Israel, stieden to Jerusalem, for to fiyte ayens it; and thei myyten not ouercome it.
And it was in [the] days of Ahaz [the] son of Jotham [the] son of Uzziah [the] king of Judah he went up Rezin [the] king of Aram and Pekah [the] son of Remaliah [the] king of Israel Jerusalem for battle on it and not he was able to engage in battle on it.
2 And thei telden to the hous of Dauid, and seiden, Sirie hath restid on Effraym, and the herte of hym and of his puple was mouyd togidere, as the trees of wodis ben mouyd of the face of the wynd.
And it was told to [the] house of David saying it has stood Aram with Ephraim and it shook heart his and [the] heart of people his as shake [the] trees of [the] forest from before a wind.
3 And the Lord seide to Isaie, Go thou out, and Jasub, thi sone, which is left, in to the meetyng of Achas, at the laste ende of the water cundijt of the hiyere cisterne, in the weie of the feeld of the fullere.
And he said Yahweh to Isaiah go out please to meet Ahaz you and Shear-jashub son your to [the] end of [the] conduit of the pool upper to [the] highway of [the] field of [the] washer.
4 And thou schalt seie to hym, Se thou, that thou be stille; nyle thou drede, and thin herte be not aferd of twei tailis of these brondis smokynge in the wraththe of woodnesse, of Rasyn, kynge of Sirie, and of the sone of Romelye.
And you will say to him take care and show quietness may not you be afraid and heart your may not it be weak from [the] two [the] stumps of pieces of firewood smoking these by [the] heat of [the] anger of Rezin and Aram and [the] son of Remaliah.
5 For Sirie, and Effraym, and the sone of Romelie, han bigunne yuel councel ayens thee, and seien, Stie we to Juda,
Because for it has planned on you Aram harm Ephraim and [the] son of Remaliah saying.
6 and reise we hym, and drawe we hym out to vs; and sette we a kyng in the myddis therof, the sone of Tabeel.
Let us go up on Judah and let us demolish it and let us break into it to ourselves and let us make king a king in [the] midst of it [the] son of Tabeel.
7 The Lord God seith these thingis, This schal not be, and it schal not stonde;
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh not it will stand and not it will happen.
8 but Damask schal be the heed of Sirie, and Rasyn `schal be the heed of Damask; and yit sixti yeer and fiue, and Effraym schal faile to be a puple;
For [is] [the] head of Aram Damascus and [is] [the] head of Damascus Rezin and in yet sixty and five year[s] it will be shattered Ephraim from a people.
9 and Samarie shal faile to be the heed of Effraym, and the sone of Romelie `schal faile to be heed of Samarie. Forsothe if ye schulen not bileue, ye schulen not dwelle.
And [is] [the] head of Ephraim Samaria and [is] [the] head of Samaria [the] son of Remaliah if not you will believe for not you will be established.
10 And the Lord addide to speke to Achas,
And he repeated Yahweh to speak to Ahaz saying.
11 and seide, Axe thou to thee a signe of thi Lord God, in to the depthe of helle, ethir in to heiythe aboue. (Sheol h7585)
Ask for yourself a sign from with Yahweh God your make deep [as] Sheol or make high upwards. (Sheol h7585)
12 And Achas seide, Y schal not axe, and Y schal not tempte the Lord.
And he said Ahaz not I will ask and not I will put to [the] test Yahweh.
13 And Ysaie seide, Therfor the hous of Dauid, here ye; whether it is litil to you to be diseseful to men, for ye ben diseseful also to my God?
And he said hear please O house of David ¿ [too] little for you [is] to make weary people that you will make weary also God my.
14 For this thing the Lord hym silf schal yyue a signe to you. Lo! a virgyn schal conseyue, and schal bere a sone; and his name schal be clepid Emanuel.
Therefore he will give [the] Lord he to you a sign there! the young woman [will be] pregnant and [will] bear a son and she will call name his Immanu-el.
15 He schal ete botere and hony, that he kunne repreue yuel, and cheese good.
Curd and honey he will eat to knowing his to reject the evil and to choose the good.
16 For whi bifore that the child kunne repreue yuel, and chese good, the lond, which thou wlatist, schal be forsakun of the face of her twei kyngis.
For before he will know the lad to reject the evil and to choose the good it will be forsaken the land which you [are] feeling dread of [the] two kings its.
17 The Lord schal brynge on thee, and on thi puple, and on the hous of thi fadir, daies that camen not fro the daies of departyng of Effraym fro Juda, with the kyng of Assiriens.
He will bring Yahweh on you and on people your and on [the] house of father your days which not they have come from [the] day departed Ephraim from with Judah [the] king of Assyria.
18 And it schal be, in that dai the Lord schal hisse to a flie, which is in the laste parte of the floodis of Egipt; and to a bee, which is in the lond of Assur;
And it will be - in the day that he will whistle Yahweh for the fly which [is] at [the] end of [the] canals of Egypt and for the bee which [is] in [the] land of Assyria.
19 and `alle so schulen come, and schulen reste in the strondis of valeis, and in caues of stoonis, and in alle places of buyschis, and in alle hoolis.
And they will come and they will settle all of them in [the] wadis of the cliffs and in [the] clefts of the rocks and on all the thornbushes and in all the watering-places.
20 And in that dai the Lord schal schaue with a scharp rasour in these men, that ben biyendis the flood, in the kyng of Assiriens, the heed, and heeris of the feet, and al the beerd.
In the day that he will shave [the] Lord with a razor hired on [the] other sides [the] River with [the] king of Assyria the head and [the] hair of the feet and also the beard it will sweep away.
21 And it schal be, in that day a man schal nurische a cow of oxis, and twei scheep,
And it will be in the day that he will preserve alive a person a heifer of [the] herd and two sheep.
22 and for the plentee of mylk he schal ete botere; for whi ech man that schal be left in the myddis of the lond, schal ete boter and hony.
And it will be from [the] abundance of producing of milk he will eat curd for curd and honey he will eat every [one who] remains in [the] midst of the land.
23 And it schal be, in that dai ech place where a thousand vyneris schulen be worth a thousynde platis of siluer, and schulen be in to thornes and breeris,
And it will be in the day that it will be every place where it was there a thousand vine[s] for a thousand silver the thorn[s] and the> bush[es] it will become.
24 men schulen entre thidur with bouwis and arowis; for whi breris and thornes schulen be in al the lond.
With arrows and with bow anyone will go there for thorn[s] and bush[es] it will be all the land.
25 And alle hillis that schulen be purgid with a sarpe, the drede of thornes and of breris schal not come thidir; and it schal be in to lesewe of oxen, and in to treding of scheep.
And all the hills which with the hoe they were hoed! not you will go there fear of thorn[s] and bush[es] and it will become pastureland of ox[en] and a trampling place of sheep.
