Isaiah 7:10-16Common English Bible (CEB)The sign of Immanuel
10 Again the Lord spoke to Ahaz: 11 “Ask a sign from the Lord your God. Make it as deep as the grave[a] or as high as heaven.”
12 But Ahaz said, “I won’t ask; I won’t test the Lord.”
13 Then Isaiah said, “Listen, house of David! Isn’t it enough for you to be tiresome for people that you are also tiresome before my God?14 Therefore, the Lord will give you a sign. The young woman is pregnant and is about to give birth to a son, and she will name him Immanuel.[b]15 He will eat butter and honey, and learn to reject evil and choose good.16 Before the boy learns to reject evil and choose good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned.
