Isaiah 8:13-16

13It is the Lord of hosts whom you are to regard as holy and awesome. He shall be your [source of] fear, He shall be your [source of] dread [not man].

14Then He shall be a sanctuary [a sacred, indestructible shelter for those who fear and trust Him]; But to both the houses of Israel [both the northern and southern kingdoms—Israel and Judah, He will be] a stone on which to stumble and a rock on which to trip, A trap and a snare for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

15Many [among them] will stumble over them; Then they will fall and be broken, They will even be snared and trapped.”

16Bind up the testimony, seal the law and the teaching among my (Isaiah’s) disciples.
