Isaiah 7:17-25

Isaiah 7:17-25

[17] The LORD  shall bring  upon thee, and upon thy people,  and upon thy father's  house,  days  that have not come,  from the day  that Ephraim  departed  from Judah;  even the king  of Assyria.  [18] And it shall come to pass in that day,  that the LORD  shall hiss  for the fly  that is in the uttermost part  of the rivers  of Egypt,  and for the bee  that is in the land  of Assyria.  [19] And they shall come,  and shall rest  all of them in the desolate  valleys,  and in the holes  of the rocks,  and upon all thorns,  and upon all bushes.  [20] In the same day  shall the Lord  shave  with a razor  that is hired,  namely, by them beyond  the river,  by the king  of Assyria,  the head,  and the hair  of the feet:  and it shall also consume  the beard.  [21] And it shall come to pass in that day,  that a man  shall nourish  a young  cow,  and two  sheep;  [22] And it shall come to pass, for the abundance  of milk  that they shall give  he shall eat  butter:  and honey  shall every one eat  that is left  in  the land.  [23] And it shall come to pass in that day,  that every place  shall be, where there were a thousand  vines  at a thousand  silverlings,  it shall even be for briers  and thorns.  [24] and with bows  shall men come  thither; because all the land  shall become briers  and thorns.  [25] And on all hills  that shall be digged  with the mattock,  there shall not come thither  the fear  of briers  and thorns:  but it shall be for the sending forth  of oxen,  and for the treading  of lesser cattle.
