And יהוה said to me, Take for yourself a large scroll, and write on it with a human stylus, 'Speedy plunder, hasty spoil.'

And I will witness for myself faithful witnesses, Uriyah the priest, and Zekharyahu son of Yevarekhiyyahu.

And I approached the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son, and יהוה said to me, 'Call his name Speedy plunder, hasty spoil.'

For before the boy knows to call 'Father' and 'Mother,' he will carry the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Shomron before the king of Ashshur.

And יהוה spoke to me again, saying:

Because this people has rejected the waters of Shiloaḥ that flow gently, and rejoices in Retstsin and the son of Remalyahu.

Therefore, behold, Adonai is bringing up against them the waters of the river, mighty and abundant, the king of Ashshur and all his glory. And it will rise over all its channels and flow over all its banks.

And it will pass through Yehudah, it will flood and pass over; it will reach even to the neck. And the stretching out of its wings will fill the breadth of your land, Immanuel.

Rage, peoples, and be terrified! And listen, all distant lands! Gird yourselves and be terrified! Gird yourselves and be terrified!

Devise a plan, and it will be nullified! Speak a word, and it will not stand, for Elohim is with us.

For יהוה spoke to me with the strength of a hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying:

'Do not say, 'A conspiracy!' concerning all that this people says, 'A conspiracy!' And do not fear their fear, nor be terrified.

יהוה of hosts, Him you shall sanctify. And He shall be your fear, and He shall be your terror.

And it will be a sanctuary, but also a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense to both houses of Yisra'el, a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Yerushalayim.

And many among them will stumble, and fall, and be broken, and snared, and captured.

Bind up the testimony; seal the instruction among my disciples.

And I will wait for יהוה, who is hiding His face from the house of Ya'aqov, and I will hope in Him.

Behold, I and the children whom יהוה has given me are for signs and for wonders in Yisra'el from יהוה of hosts, who dwells on Mount Tsiyon.

And if they say to you, 'Consult the spirits of the dead and the mediums who whisper and mutter,' should not a people consult their Elohim? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living?

For the instruction and for the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, there will be no dawn for them.

And he will pass through it, distressed and hungry. And it will be, when he is hungry, that he will rage and curse his king and his Elohim. And he will look upward,

And look toward the earth, and behold, distress and darkness, gloom and oppression, and thick darkness; they are driven away.

For there is no gloom for her who was in distress. In the former time He lightly afflicted the land of Zevulun and the land of Naftali, but in the latter time He has made it glorious by the way of the sea, beyond the Yarden, in the Galilee of the nations.
