Isa 7:1-6, Jer 3:18, Eze 37:16-24, Hos 1:11 | ESV | STEP | In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham , son of Uzziah , king of Judah , Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah the king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to wage war against it, but could not yet mount an attack against it.

1 In the days of ^aAhaz the son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, ^bRezin the king of Syria and ^cPekah the son of Remaliah the king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to wage war against it, but could not yet mount an attack against it. 2 When the house of David was told, ^d“Syria is in league with ^{▼▼Hebrew Syria has rested upon} ^fEphraim,” the heart of Ahaz ^{▼▼Hebrew his heart} and the heart of his people shook as the trees of the forest shake before the wind.

3 And the Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out to meet Ahaz, you and ^hShear-jashub ^{▼▼ Shear-jashub means A remnant shall return} your son, at the end of ^jthe conduit of the upper pool on the highway to the Washer’s Field. 4 And say to him, ^k‘Be careful, ^lbe quiet, do not fear, and do not let your heart be faint because of these two ^msmoldering stumps of firebrands, at the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria and ⁿthe son of Remaliah. 5 Because Syria, with Ephraim and ^othe son of Remaliah, has devised evil against you, saying, 6 “Let us go up against Judah and terrify it, and let us conquer it ^{▼▼Hebrew let us split it open} for ourselves, and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it,”

Jeremiah 3:18

18 ^qIn those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land ^rof the north to ^sthe land that I gave your fathers for a heritage.

Ezekiel 37:16-24

16 ^t“Son of man, ^utake a stick ^{▼▼Or one piece of wood; also verses 17, 19, 20} and write on it, ‘For ^wJudah, and ^xthe people of Israel associated with him’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For ^yJoseph (the stick of ^zEphraim) and all the house of Israel associated with him.’ 17 And ^aajoin them one to another into one stick, that ^abthey may become ^acone in your hand. 18 And when ^adyour people say to you, ^ae‘Will you not tell us what you mean by these?’ 19 say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am about to take ^afthe stick of Joseph (that is in the hand of Ephraim) and the tribes of Israel associated with him. And I will join with it the ^agstick of Judah, ^{▼▼Hebrew And I will place them on it, the stick of Judah} and ^aimake them one stick, ^ajthat they may be one in my hand. 20 When the sticks on which you write are in your hand ^akbefore their eyes, 21 then say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, ^alI will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and ^ambring them to their own land. 22 And ^anI will make them one nation in the land, on ^aothe mountains of Israel. And ^apone king shall be king over them all, and they shall be no longer ^aqtwo nations, and no longer divided into two kingdoms. 23 ^arThey shall not ^asdefile themselves anymore ^atwith their idols and their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But ^auI will save them from all the backslidings ^{▼▼Many Hebrew manuscripts; other Hebrew manuscripts dwellings} in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and ^awthey shall be my people, and I will be their God.

24 “My servant ^axDavid ^ayshall be king over them, and they shall all have ^azone shepherd. ^baThey shall walk in my rules and be careful to obey my statutes.
