New Testament

Isaiah 7:13-17 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

13. Then I said, "Listen, you members of the royal family of Ahaz! Isn't it enough for you to test the patience of men? Are you also going to test the patience of my God?

14. The Lord himself will give you a miraculous sign. The virgin is going to have a baby. She will give birth to a son. And he will be called Immanuel.

15. "The time will come when he is old enough to decide between what is wrong and what is right. By that time he will have only butter and honey to eat.

16. But even before that happens, the lands of the two kings you are afraid of will be completely destroyed.

17. "The Lord will also bring the king of Assyria against you. And he will bring him against your people and the whole royal family. That will be a time of trouble unlike any since the people of Ephraim broke away from Judah."
