Isaiah 8:14-22

14And he will beH1961 for a sanctuaryH4720; and for a stoneH68 of stumbling, and for a rockH6697 of offence to both the housesH1004 of IsraelH3478, for a gin and for a snareH4170 to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 15And manyH7227 among them shall stumbleH3782, and fallH5307, and be brokenH7665, and snared, and takenH3920. 16Bind up the testimonyH8584, sealH2856 the lawH8451 among my disciples. 17And I will waitH2442 for Jehovah, who hideth his faceH6440 from the houseH1004 of JacobH3290; and I will look for him. 18Behold, I and the childrenH3206 that Jehovah hath givenH5414 me are for signsH226 and for wondersH4159 in IsraelH3478, from Jehovah of hostsH6635, who dwelleth in mount ZionH6726. 19And when they shall sayH559 unto you, SeekH1875 unto the necromancers and unto the soothsayers, who chirp and who mutter, [sayH559,] Shall not a peopleH5971 seekH1875 unto their 1GodH430? [Will they go] for the living unto the deadH4191? 20To the lawH8451 and the testimonyH8584! If they speak not according to this wordH1697, for them there is no daybreak. 21And they shall passH5674 through it, hardH7185 pressed and hungryH7457; and it shall come to passH5674 when they are hungryH7457, they will fret themselves, and curseH7043 their kingH4428 and their 2GodH430, and will gaze upwardH4605: 22and they will look to the earthH776; and behold, troubleH6869 and darknessH2825, gloomH653 of anguish; and they shall be drivenH5080 into thick darknessH2825.
