Isaiah 8:11-15

11For so the Lord spoke to me 1with 2mighty power and instructed me 3not to walk in the way of this people, saying,12“You are not to say, ‘It is a 4conspiracy!’ Regarding everything that this people call a conspiracy, And 5you are not to fear 6what they fear or be in dread of it.13It is the 7Lord of armies 8whom you are to regard as holy. And He shall be your fear, And He shall be your dread.14Then He will become a 9sanctuary; But to both houses of Israel, He will be a 10stone of stumbling and a rock 11of offense, And a snare and a 12trap for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.15Many 13will stumble over them, Then they will fall and be broken; They will be snared and caught.”
