Isaiah 7:2, 7-9, 12, 14

When the royal court was told that Syria had formed an alliance with the northern kingdom of Israel, the heart of King Ahaz and all his people trembled with fear, like trees swaying in the wind.

Now hear what the Lord YAHWEH says: “They will not succeed—it will never happen! For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. Sixty-five years from now the northern kingdom of Israel will be shattered, with nothing left of it. The head of the northern kingdom of Israel is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not be able to stand at all!”

Ahaz answered, “I will not ask. I won’t attempt to test the Lord YAHWEH.”

The Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold—the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son and will name him God Among Us.
