Isaiah 7:17-25

17 aThe Lord will bring upon you and upon your people and upon your father’s house such days as have not come since the day that bEphraim departed from Judah—the king of Assyria!”

18In that day the Lord will cwhistle for the fly that is at the end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. 19And they will all come and settle in the steep ravines, and din the clefts of the rocks, and on all the thornbushes, and on all the pastures.
Or watering holes, or brambles


20In that day fthe Lord will gshave with a razor that is hhired beyond ithe River—with the king of Assyria—the head and the hair of the feet, and it will sweep away the beard also.

21 jIn that day a man will keep alive a young cow and two sheep, 22and because of the abundance of milk that they give, he will eat curds, for everyone who is left in the land will eat kcurds and honey.

23In that day every place where there used to be a thousand vines, worth a thousand shekels
A  shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 grams
of silver, will become mbriers and thorns.
24 nWith bow and arrows a man will come there, for all the land will be briers and thorns. 25 oAnd as for all the hills that used to be hoed with a hoe, you will not come there for fear pof briers and thorns, but they will become a place where cattle are let loose and where sheep tread.
