Isaiah 8:16-20
161BindH6887 up the testimonyH8584, 2sealH2856 the 3lawH8451 among 4my disciplesH3928. 17And I will 5waitH2442 for the LordH3068 6who is hidingH5641 His faceH6440 from the houseH1004 of JacobH3290; I will even lookH6960 eagerlyH6960 for Him. 187BeholdH2009, I and the childrenH3206 whomH834 the LordH3068 has givenH5414 me are for 8signsH226 and wondersH4159 in IsraelH3478 from the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, who 9dwellsH7931 on MountH2022 ZionH6726.
19WhenH3588 they sayH559 to you, “10ConsultH1875 the mediumsH178 and the spiritistsH3049 who whisperH6850 and mutterH1897,” should not a peopleH5971 11consultH1875 their GodH430? Should they 12consult the deadH4191 on behalfH1157 of the livingH2416? 20To the 1314lawH8451 and to the testimonyH8584! IfH518 they do not speakH559 according to thisH2088 wordH1697, it is becauseH834 15they haveH369 noH369 dawnH7837.
