Thus saith the Lord God:
“It shall not stand,
_neither shall it come to pass.“For the head of Syria is Damascus,
_and the head of Damascus, Rezin;
_and within three score and five years
_shall Ephraim be broken that it be not a people.“And the head of Ephraim is Samaria,
_and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son.“If ye will not believe
_surely ye shall not be established.”
